The Art of CurationCan news curation be unbiased? 🤔 Drew Steigerwald, 1440“When you focus on the research, educating, explaining and pulling things together, and then communicating that back in an easy way, this idea of bias often does not come up. I know that sounds counterintuitive. But it’s really about placing focus on how we explain [the news]. We don’t really worry about [what each side says]. We put our focus on contextual framing, trying to be quantitative, and communicating in a useful way.” — Drew Steigerwald, Co-founder 1440 In today’s media landscape, understanding what’s happening in the world is a tricky business. It’s a major understatem...

Radio America NewsHuelskamp: GOP Leaders Afraid to Take on ObamaHouse conservatives are making the case for the impeachment of IRS Commissioner John Koskinen ahead of Thursday's debate, and one of them is also blasting Republican leaders for failing to hold Obama administration official accountable for anything and even being "afraid" of the administration.
On Tuesday, Reps. John Fleming, R-Louisiana, and Tim Huelskamp, R-Kansas, introduced a privileged resolution on the impeachment of Koskinen. A privileged resolution requires a floor vote and is not subject to the scheduling priorities of House leaders.
Huelskamp says the case for Koskinen's ouster is open and shut.

2016-09-1409 minRadio America NewsGOP Tries to Take Out Another House ConservativeFresh off a win in Kansas earlier this month, Republicans and special interests looking to oust rebellious conservative members have their sites set on Arizona.
Just four weeks after House Freedom Caucus member Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kansas, lost his seat in a Republican primary, fellow caucus member Rep. Paul Gosar is fighting back against an onslaught of outside Super PAC money aimed at defeating hi.
Gosar was elected in the tea party wave election of 2010 and is seeking a fourth term in the state's large, rural fourth district on August 30. But Gosar is busy fending off a spirited...
2016-08-2612 minRadio America NewsGOP Aims to Sink Conservative Rep.A conservative Republican congressman is once again fighting to save his political career while leaders in his own party try to oust him for what he says is simply honoring his promises to the voters.
Four states head to the polls in congressional primaries on August 2, but the most intriguing - and expensive - of those races is in the first congressional district of Kansas. Known as "The Big First," the sprawling district takes up a majority of the land in the state. Rep. Tim Huelskamp is seeking a fourth term in the House but is facing a...
2016-07-2910 minRadio America NewsHouse Conservatives Force IRS Impeachment VoteHouse conservatives are forcing a vote on the fate of IRS Commissioner John Koskinen after GOP leaders refused to pursue the issue.
On Thursday, Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kansas, and Rep. John Fleming, R-Louisiana, offered a privileged resolution demanding a vote to impeach Koskinen for multiple crimes he allegedly committed while covering up the IRS abuse of conservative groups applying for tax-exempt status.
Huelskamp says he and other members of the conservative House Freedom Caucus had no other choice.
"This has been sitting out there for months and months. Leadership has refused to act, but it's very clear...
2016-07-1408 minRadio America News'Everyone's Scared of Their Shadow'In 2014, Dave Brat unseated the sitting House Majority Leader of his own party. Now, he's taking the fight for fiscal responsibility and immigration enforcement to the remaining GOP leaders while wondering how committed they are to those goals.
Brat shocked the political establishment in June 2014, when he handily defeated House Majority Leader Eric Cantor in the Republican primary. He vowed to rein in the size of government and stop the granting of legal status to those who entered the U.S. illegally. Just a few months into his term, Brat says advancing meaningful change is a major challenge...
2015-03-3010 minRadio America News'The News Only Seems to Get Worse and Worse'Months after the Veterans Administration scandal exploded in the headlines, top officials are still lying and hiding information from Congress and President Obama is actively trying to roll back the freedom of veterans to seek health care outside of the government system.
That's the conclusion of Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kans., a member of the House Veterans Affairs Committee.
Last May, the VA was rocked by reports that veterans were forced to wait months for routine medical appointments and that some officials were doctoring hospital and medical records to cover up the failure to provide care. In response, Veterans...
2015-03-2006 minRadio America NewsThe Squandered GOP MajorityRep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan., says Republican leaders are wasting historic majorities in Congress by surrendering on critical issues like immigration and driving deep wedges in the party by collaborating more with Democrats than conservatives on key votes.
"We are talking about historical vote margins in the House and Senate. Republicans have done better than we have in probably 80-90 years. We have immediately started squandering away that victory," said Huelskamp.
Huelskamp says the biggest disappointments are in fully funding what he considers to be President Obama's unconstitutional amnesty and in failing to stop Washington's...

Agri-Pulse Open Mic InterviewRep. Tim HuelskampIn his first term Rep. Tim Huelskamp earned a reputation of bucking the political system and party leadership positions that prompted the Republican House Steering Committee to strip him of plum committee assignments in the 113th Congress, including the Agriculture and Budget Committees. But the Kansas farmer handily won re-election in the state's "Big First" District and he's proud of being a fiscal conservative - one of only nine members in the 435-member U.S. House to have earned a 100 percent rating from the conservative Club for Growth for 2011. In this week's Open Mic, we asked him about sequestration and...
2013-02-0300 minRadio America News'We're Clearly Being Punished'House Speaker John Boehner is working feverishly to find common ground with the Obama administration to avert to coming fiscal cliff, but the Speaker and his lieutenants may have an even bigger problem now that four conservative lawmakers have been stripped of key committee positions for not being loyal enough to the GOP leadership.
The decisions came from a Republican steering committee tasked with making committee assignments. The panel stripped Kansas Rep. Tim Huelskamp and Michigan Rep. Justin Amash from the House Budget Committee. Arizona Rep. David Schweikert and North Carolina Rep. Walter Jones were given the boot from the...
2012-12-0612 minRadio America NewsThe Gentleman from Kansas RespondsOn Tuesday, President Obama visited Kansas to drum up support for his plan to extend current payroll tax rates by raising taxes on the wealthy. He also invoked a 1910 speech by Theodore Roosevelt in that same location that Obama says is proof Republicans were once willing to compromise but today's GOP lawmakers are not willing to find common ground. How does Kansas Rep. Tim Huelskamp react to all this? What is his response to the charge that Republican opposition to any tax increases on the rich threatens a tax increase for all of us? And does he expect...
