Civic Outlaws is a weekly podcast about civil liberties, transparency, and the quiet ways power gets abused—rule by rule, policy by policy.

Missouri Moves After Loper Bright: RSMo 536.140 and the End of Automatic Deference 20.02.2026 1:10:15

This morning on Civic Outlaws, we break down Missouri’s legislative response to Loper Bright and what it means for administrative power in the Show-Me State.

Welcome to the first Civic Outlaws broadcast—recorded on DAM Radio and built to shine a floodlight on government creep. Samuel Trapp explains why Chevron-style deference mattered, what Loper Bright changed, and why Missouri’s new §536.140 commands courts to stop deferring to agencies. Then he walks through the liquor-license fight that sparked Civic Outlaws, the Sunshine Law “priced-out” records g...
