Over the next 12 days, Minnesotans will walk through the state fair gates to encounter animals, art and decadent food. Politicians will have a chance to meet voters face-to-face, which could be especially important in a competitive midterm election year like 2026. Democratic U.S. Sen. Tina Smith kicked off one of the year's the most significant statewide races when she announced in 2025 she would not seek reelection. DFL Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan and Republican sports broadcaster Michele Tafoya are running for the seat. Smith now has a few months left in her term, with major budget and farming legislation before Congress. She joined MPR News host Nina Moini on the MPR stage.

Luigi Mangione's unexpected guilty plea in federal court has thrown his upcoming New York state murder trial into limbo. After pleading guilty to federal stalking charges for the December 2024 killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, Mangione's admission leaves state prosecutors facing a steep battle over double jeopardy laws to keep their case alive. FOX News contributor and criminal defense attorney Donna Rotunno joins to discuss the legal strategy behind Mangione's move, what it means for his federal sentencing, and the broader societal shift surrounding public support for high-profile violent acts.Immigration enforcement remains a key concern for voters in Minnesota after ICE operations there saw two fatal shootings involving federal officers. That topic, along with fraud and affordability, is shaping the midterm races in the North Star State. Minnesota Republican Senate candidate Michele Tafoya joins FOX News' Bill Melugin to discuss her platform and path to the Senate as she aims to be the first Republican elected in a statewide election there since 2006.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, the pseudo-conservative, Woke Reich isolationist, and national-conservative voices are undermining the president, abandoning traditional Reaganite principles, and pushing for greater government intervention.  We have an alarming near-$50 trillion on-budget debt (with true obligations including Social Security, Medicare, and pensions closer to $300–350 trillion against an economy producing only about $20 trillion annually). Such demands for more government play into Democrats' hands, and principles are needed most when confronting economic and security threats. The proper path is growth and wealth creation through freer markets, competition, and smarter regulation rather than new programs; critics should present concrete plans if they have any. Election success ultimately depends on doing what is necessary, such as the president's decisive action to prevent the Iranian regime from obtaining nuclear weapons and intercontinental ballistic missiles which deserves immediate credit. Later, the Vice President has argued that free-market advocates should stop invoking the market system and instead develop a plan to help younger people avoid socialism. Traditional Reaganite and Friedman-style conservatives who back the President's tax and regulatory policies are questioning these remarks. With nearly a $50 trillion on-budget debt the real problem is too much government, not more of it, and that debate belongs in the primaries.  Finally, Michele Tafoya, Minnesota Senate candidate, calls in and argues that Minnesota has been racing in the wrong direction under single-party Democrat rule, with Peggy Flanagan serving as lieutenant governor under Tim Walz for two terms during which the state became a national embarrassment. Drawing on her experience as an early WNBA play-by-play announcer who watched the league grow through women's pure skill and athleticism, she criticized the idea that biological men should compete in women's sports, noting that exclusion is fundamental to athletics and that giving roster spots to biological males simply excludes actual women in an absurd, Alice-in-Wonderland distortion.

GOP Senate candidate Michele Tafoya said in an interview yesterday that she's talked to hundreds of Minnesotans who are embarrassed to tell people where they're from due to all the fraud and mismanagement in the state. Jason asks listeners if they feel the same?

Pags kicks things off with a Truth Alert as Karoline Leavitt announces she's stepping down as White House Press Secretary to focus on being a full-time mom. Then Pags breaks down four major takeaways from primary night, including David Crowley's victory over democratic socialist Francesca Hong in Wisconsin and Michele Tafoya's big win. But things really heat up when Julián and Joaquin Castro are back in the headlines. Pags tears into Julián's latest comments on illegal immigration and issues an open invitation for him to come on the show and debate it. He also reacts to Joaquin Castro's push to end San Antonio's 287(g) cooperation with ICE, asking why anyone assumes Hispanic Americans must automatically oppose immigration enforcement—and why someone's heritage should ever determine their politics. Finally, Todd Blanche announces the arrests and indictments of 11 people accused of running a marriage-fraud scheme involving Chinese nationals and American citizens. Pags has one question after the arrests: What happens to everyone who exploited the scheme now? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into Tuesday's critical primary results in three states, another blue state enthusiastically embracing abortion up to the moment of birth, Tucker Carlson and Hunter Biden blaming Israel for Hunter's laptop scandal, and another House incumbent losing his primary.First, they walk through the primary results in Wisconsin, Minnesota, and South Carolina, including how socialist Francesca Hong blew a nearly 30 point lead within just a few days, whether Michele Tafoya can win a U.S. Senate seat in Minnesota, and what Tuesday's South Carolina U.S. Senate primary might tell us about who might win the runoff there.Next, they shudder as Massachusetts becomes the latest state to legalize abortion for any reason or no reason up to the moment of birth. Greg points out that any third trimester complication can be dealt with by delivering instead of killing the baby. Jim details how drastically the left's position on abortion has changed in recent years.Then, they groan as Tucker Carlson and Hunter Biden blame Israel for Hunter's laptop fiasco and pushing the story to the media. Jim begs Biden to go away and he also addresses growing concerns that Tucker will start a third party designed to sink Republicans in 2028.Finally, they note Connecticut Rep. John Larson losing his primary on Tuesday, adding to a much longer list of incumbents fired by their own party's voters in 2026 thna in most cycles.Please visit our great sponsors:AG1https://DrinkAG1.com/3ML Start your first AGI subscription order, and get a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler and a FREE bottle of Vitamin D3 + K2 in your Welcome Kit.Noble Goldhttps://NobleGoldInvestments.com/3MLIf you want to see how physical gold and silver could fit into your portfolio, download Noble Gold Investments FREE Wealth Protection Kit.IncogniTake control of your digital footprint today.

Wisconsin Democrats narrowly chose Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley over Democratic Socialist state representative Francesca Hong in the gubernatorial primary, 39.8 percent to 39.4 percent. It's close enough that this might be headed to a recount, but it doesn't appear that Hong won. Crowley, who was endorsed by Governor Tony Evers, will face Trump-endorsed Republican representative Tom Tiffany. The result halted the progressive left's recent primary momentum, but it still showed its strength in a battleground state.What you're probably going to hear about is the polling. After the polls wildly overestimated Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan, the final State Navigate poll had Hong at 44 percent and Crowley at 22 percent — a 22-point Hong lead. Instead, Crowley won by 0.4 percent. That's a 22.4-point miss on the margin. Jeez Louise. Hong's vote share wasn't wildly off; the poll totally underestimated Crowley. The question is why these polls keep overrepresenting progressive-leaning voters.One theory is that more polls are using online surveys. The old problem with landline calls was that they overrepresented boomers because nobody under 60 had a landline. Nobody answers an unfamiliar number on a cellphone, so that leaves online responses, which might overrepresent progressives. It's also worth noting that the DSA endorsed Hong, but Bernie Sanders and AOC didn't. Pure DSA play isn't good enough to get you over the hump, even in a Democratic primary. Bernie and AOC provide some wiggle room away from the DSA's baggage.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Next door, Minnesota Democrats delivered a decisive progressive victory as Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan defeated Representative Angie Craig by 20 points for the open Senate nomination. Flanagan overcame a major spending disadvantage after attacking Craig's immigration record, particularly her 2025 vote expanding ICE authority. Republicans nominated former NFL reporter Michele Tafoya, but barring huge changes in the race, Flanagan is going to be Minnesota's next senator. In the governor's race, Amy Klobuchar easily secured the Democratic nomination, while state House speaker Lisa Demuth defeated Trump-backed My Pillow founder Mike Lindell. Please raise your combs in celebration.South Carolina's emergency election to replace Lindsey Graham is headed to an August 25 runoff between interim senator Darlene Graham and Representative Ralph Norman. Graham, Lindsey's sister and Trump's endorsed candidate, finished first with 32.7 percent. Norman took the second spot with 24.6 percent, narrowly eliminating Representative Russell Fry. The vote was pretty split, and I don't know whether Darlene has the juice to keep Norman off. A lot of Republicans were already angry that she decided to seek the seat permanently instead of serving as a placeholder. Ralph Norman has a real shot. The kiss of death for Darlene would be the double endorsement — a double Trump endorsement.Former Hartford mayor Luke Bronin also defeated 14-term Democratic representative John Larson, 54 percent to 33 percent. Larson, 78, became the seventh House Democrat defeated in a primary this cycle, while Governor Ned Lamont won renomination. In Alabama, Trump-endorsed Republican Rhett Marques advanced to face Democratic representative Shomari Figures in the redrawn Second District, where the Black voting-age population was reduced from 48 percent to 40 percent.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:05:42 - Tuesday Primary Results00:16:18 - Exploring Disney's America with Andrew Heaton01:19:36 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Democrat Amy Klobuchar and Republican Lisa Demuth will compete to be Minnesota's next governor. Either would make history as the state's first woman leader. Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan won a decisive victory in the Democratic primary for the U.S. Senate. Flanagan defeated U.S. Rep. Angie Craig. The margin of victory was much wider than many expected in a race where Flanagan was vastly outspent.At her victory party at First Avenue in downtown Minneapolis, Flanagan turned her gaze toward her November opponent, former sports broadcaster Michele Tafoya, who won the Republican nomination. Minnesota hasn't elected a Republican to the U.S. Senate since 2002. But Tafoya says she's a new kind of candidate and says she will not be beholden to her party or President Donald Trump.A crew member assigned to work to contain the wildfires that are burning in northern Minnesota has died. The incident management team that is overseeing firefighting operations says in a statement that “a medical emergency occurred” at about 10:40 a.m. Tuesday “involving an individual assigned to the incident.”Klobuchar is DFL nominee for governor, Demuth wins GOP race over two rivalsFlanagan wins DFL duel in Senate race, Tafoya claims GOP nod for open seatCrew member battling to contain northern Minnesota wildfires dies

Dustin Grage analyzed Minnesota’s races after Republicans nominated Michele Tafoya for Senate and Lisa Demuth for governor, while Republican strategist Mark Graul examined David Crowley’s narrow victory over Francesca Hong in Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial primary and the broader political landscape in the state. Scott also covered South Carolina’s Republican Senate runoff, major polling misses in recent Democratic primaries, the record-setting sale of the Los Angeles Lakers, and controversy surrounding the Indiana Fever and Sophie Cunningham.

Gov. Peggy Flanagan.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michele Tafoya joins Sean Spicer just hours before Minnesota's U.S. Senate primary to break down her fundraising edge over the field, who she expects to face in the general, and why she thinks men in women's sports is an 80/20 issue Democrats can't win on. Then, South Carolina Senate candidate Mark Lynch — who finished second to Lindsey Graham in the first primary round — joins to make his case for cracking the top two, and explains why he thinks "Queen Darline" doesn't deserve to be crowned the next Senator of South Carolina without a real fight. ------------------------------------- https://www.seanspicer.com subscribe for an ad free version of this podcast ------------------------------------- Bedford Reinforced Plastics - https://www.bedfordreinforced.com/spicer ------------------------------------- https://ruffgreens.com/⁠ enter code: SPICER for your FREE starter pack Learn more about your ad choices.
