Leland Conway is on a mission to tackle the rising gas prices and the politicians who are failing to address the issue. In this episode, he's calling out Governor Andy Beshear for blaming President Trump for the soaring gas prices, and he's offering a three-point plan to lower gas prices if he were president.

The conversation gets heated as Leland challenges Governor Beshear's claims and points out that his party's policies have contributed significantly to the current gas prices. Leland also takes aim at President Trump, saying that he's not doing enough to address the issue and that the Republicans are too scared to take action. Throughout the episode, Leland shares his own ideas for lowering gas prices, including temporarily suspending the gas tax, creating Operation Warp Speed for refining and oil drilling capacity, and enacting a temporary but significant inflation tax credit for every American.

Leland's plan is straightforward and aimed at providing immediate relief to Americans who are struggling with the high gas prices. He argues that his ideas are not perfect, but they're a start, and he's frustrated that the politicians aren't having a real conversation about the issue. He's also critical of the Democrats, saying that they're more interested in scoring points than in finding solutions.

If you're tired of the politicians' empty promises and want to hear a real discussion about how to lower gas prices, tune in to this episode to hear Leland's three-point plan and his unfiltered thoughts on the issue.

This week on NewsRadio 840 WHAS, Leland Conway is tackling a pressing issue in Louisville: the city's gang problem and the blame game that follows. The speaker is calling out Metro Council members for pointing fingers at law-abiding gun owners instead of addressing the root causes of crime. He's joined by John Lott, the renowned expert on gun statistics, to discuss the facts behind defensive gun uses and the importance of understanding the data.

The conversation delves into the recent shootings in Louisville and the city's refusal to acknowledge its gang problem. Leland and John Lott discuss the statistics on defensive gun uses, which show that the number of instances where law-abiding citizens use guns to defend themselves is much higher than previously thought. They also touch on the FBI's error in reporting the number of mass shootings stopped by good guys with guns.

The speaker is passionate about the need for the community to take responsibility for addressing the root causes of crime, rather than scapegoating law-abiding citizens. He emphasizes that the data shows that concealed carry permit holders are the least likely group of people to commit crimes. Leland and John Lott also discuss the importance of understanding the facts behind gun ownership and use, rather than relying on emotional appeals.

If you're interested in learning more about the facts behind gun ownership and use, and how the city can work towards a safer community, tune in to this episode of NewsRadio 840 WHAS. Leland Conway and his guest, John Lott, will give you a clear-eyed look at the data and the issues at play.
