Simon opens the show with news that a DSM high school student has been deported and the boldly outrageous statement released by the DSM School Board stating "we care about our students" and that they provide safe schools for students and teachers.

Later, Simon talks to Kelli Klink, Government Relations Director of the IA Cattlemen's Association, about President Trump's comments and commitment to purchasing beef from Argentina.
