First time since october stocks look to close out the month in the red. April showers leaving the dow soaked and got them down 444 at the moment but for the month down 4. 6 followed by the s p 500 which looks to end the last 30 days with a loss of 3 , the nasdaq in a shower but on pace to get clipped by 3. 5 but it is the small and midcap that took the worst dunking, the russell 2000 on track to have lost 6. 6 on the month. Overall no one should be surprised or worried considering the runup by the bulls that theyve enjoyed since november with the backdrop of stubborn inflation which brings us to right now, Federal Reserves Committee Meeting huddled behind closed doors and while the fed is expected to leave borrowing rates to 5. 5 for the sixth meeting in a row, simmering inflation weighing heavily on chairman jay powell. Cutting rates would be a tool used to stimulate spending but with consumer demand sizzling the Central Banks original plan to cut 3 times, 6 times this year is on ice.

We have to take the threat seriously for they get to our shores. That is my primary goal. How do you do that . The president issued a bipartisan hill that authorized airstrikes against himelfarb six to support troops on the ground. Not our troops bindview. It is not a perfect situation and sometimes they turn out to be enemies on the. Right now we dont have the luxury of finding the perfect solution and we have to stop flow of isis before they get to our shores. As far as having our boots on the ground, absolutely positively the last resort. I have a son who is a sophomore who is in the army rotc program and most likely he would be sent in be sent into harms way into years. I dont want that to happen unless i absolutely have to. We cant turn a blind eye to terrorism. Well with that scenario p.
Vote and have ones vote counted, these are really national issues. And at some point i would like to see the United States Congress Take action to establish a baseline of uniform rules for registration, identification , and early voting so that the many people who moved across state lines in the United States know what the rules will be for voting when they moved. As it stands now, if you live across state lines he may face entirely different rules regarding registration , identification , when you can vote and so on. We have, in my opinion, a lot to learn from the rest of the world when it comes to the way weve run elections, including the protection. Adding to that ought to be the way that people interact with voting, the machine or type of voting. Some are more accurate than others. Also, a huge issue in the United States is absentee voting, and a lot of litigation now comes up about absentee voting, and that, too, is different for each jurisdiction.

Heres how that happens. When we compromise our conservative, traditional values, we lose every time. I believe in this race south dakota needs a voice. This is very much about who is going to support south dakota. And in the process, we can be an example to the entire country, and even to the United States senate. I believe the partisan rancor we see in the United States senate is despicable, and the people we are talking around the state to are telling us they are weary of the Republican Party and a democrat party. They are wary because they have not been telling them the truth. That is why i believe this race is about truth. This race is about trust. In the next United States senator from south dakota must be someone south dakotans can trust and restore trust and integrity to the senate. Thank you. Mr. Pressler, to you, is this race about representing south dakota or taking control of the u. S. Senate . It is about south dakota as far as i am concerned. I have a plan to start a postt
