The American Farm Bureau Federation applauded an executive order on dyed diesel usage.

Chad Smith says more is needed.

President Donald Trump's recent executive order eased the limits on usage of tax-exempt dyed diesel fuel to give farmers a break during the busy harvest season when demand is at its highest.

Faith Parham, deputy chief economist for the American Farm Bureau Federation, talked about the potential impact of the decision.

Well, first, we need all states to allow red dyed diesel usage, so we wanna make sure that state governments look and work with their farmers to make sure it makes sense for them.

On the federal side, we'd like a complete removal of the tax on diesel, um, so we look to Congress to see what they can do before the end of the year to help make sure that this relief is felt by farmers.

As I write this, it's September 30th, and I'm dedicating this episode to my Aunt Marie, a kind, funny, and loving mom whose son would have been 50 today.

Happy birthday, Chad.

As you know, I'd been waiting for my FOIA request to come back, and when it finally did, I was chomping at the bit to get reading.

It was 312 pages, and it took me hours and hours to read through it, so I apologize for leaving you hanging for so long, but it took forever to wade through.

On March 20th, the Monday, the officer locates a witness at the plaza I previously mentioned and brought them down to 25 Division to take a statement.

It doesn't mention whether the witness was a male or female, but it reads to me like it was the female.

It says, quote, "On Wednesday, March 15th," the same day as the other statement, "redacted met Chad Smith's girlfriend, Chad Smith, Jay Boyle, Jamie Lefebvre," redacted, redacted, redacted, and redacted, "at the beach at the foot of Liverpool Road at approximately 8:00 PM." I'm going to jump in here and ask why these brothers didn't mention these other people.

Assuming that they are two of the five redacted names, they didn't mention Chad, his girlfriend, the other girl, or Jay, and this account doesn't mention Michael or Danny at all.
