Guthrie Ransom Deadline Passes | Mortgage Affordability Surges | SC Hemp Bill Pulled (Ep 657)
Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson
The ransom deadline has passed with no confirmation of Nancy Guthrie’s return, as the search for the missing mother of Savannah Guthrie continues. Savannah released another emotional video plea, urging anyone with information to help bring her mother home safely. We have the latest developments in the case.
Meanwhile, mortgage affordability has reached a four-year high, with the White House pointing to Donald Trump’s housing and economic policies as key drivers behind easing pressure on homebuyers — a sharp contrast to the affordability crisis many families faced just months ago.
Here in South Carolina, a Statehouse bill regulating hemp-infused products was abruptly pulled after a freshman lawmaker shared a deeply personal story about his seizure-prone son and the relief hemp products provided. The move has reignited debate over regulation, personal freedom, and compassionate policymaking.
Plus, South Carolina GOP Chairman Drew McKissick joins the show to discuss:
-
The potential federal government shutdown later this week
-
What’s at stake for South Carolina
-
And how voters can get involved with the SCGOP as the 2026 election cycle ramps up
This episode of Just the Truth covers breaking news, economic reality, and the personal stories shaping policy — all through a clear, grounded conservative lens.
