Podcasts about Minnesota Senate

Minnesota has become a national embarrassment because of massive government fraud — with federal investigators estimating up to $9 billion stolen across state programs.But what most people don't know is this:A bipartisan anti-fraud bill already passed the Minnesota Senate in 2025 with overwhelming support.It should have become law.Instead, House Democrat leadership — working with Governor Tim Walz — blocked it, gutted it, and tried to replace it with a weaker version under political control.In this video, State Representative Walter Hudson walks through the full timeline:• the bipartisan origins of the Office of Inspector General bill• how it advanced through both chambers• the moment House leadership killed it• and how Democrats are now trying to rewrite historyThis is a behind-the-scenes look at how legislative manipulation actually works — and why Minnesota still hasn't fixed its fraud crisis.Politics as usual only survives in darkness.This channel exists to turn on the lights.https://x.com/WalterHudson⬇️ Watch, think critically, and decide for yourself.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Melting ICE? The Trump administration’s announcement—reinforced by Tom Homan—that Minnesota’s ICE surge operation is being scaled down after a “mission accomplished”‑style success. Clay and Buck outline how Minneapolis quietly reached a handshake agreement to reverse sanctuary‑style resistance and begin alerting ICE when violent illegal immigrants are taken into custody, a major policy pivot after years of non‑cooperation. The hosts warn that activist “street harpies,” Antifa‑aligned groups, and left‑wing organizers may try to replicate Minneapolis’s obstruction tactics in other liberal cities. They also dive deep into the political consequences, arguing that Tim Walz’s political career is effectively over, and preview competitive 2026 races—especially the Minnesota Senate race, where Michelle Tafoya trails by just a few points. MASA: Make America Smart Again A major interview featuring U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon, who outlines several key initiatives aimed at reshaping American education during the lead‑up to America’s 250th anniversary. A major focus of the conversation is the newly launched Presidential 1776 Award, a national civics and history competition created to reverse declining historical literacy among young Americans. McMahon explains that students will take a 90‑minute “Impossible Test” of 4,000 rapid‑fire questions, advancing through three rounds for scholarships of up to $150,000. Clay and Buck enthusiastically offer to take the test themselves—joking about challenging media figures—and highlight how this effort aligns with a broader push to revive foundational American history. The interview expands into President Trump’s education reform strategy, which aims to return educational authority to the states by dismantling federal bureaucracy and moving Department of Education functions to other agencies. McMahon emphasizes that despite more than $3 trillion spent since the Department’s creation in 1980, national test scores have declined—proving that centralized control has failed. She highlights the “Mississippi Miracle,” where the state dramatically boosted literacy by reinstating phonics‑based “science of reading” instruction, prompting other states to adopt similar reforms. She also discusses school innovation across the country—from classical academies to AI‑driven models like Austin’s Alpha School—and her goal of producing a best‑practices toolkit for all fifty states. The hour then pivots sharply to controversial school protests in Minneapolis, where staff and administrators walked out during political demonstrations, prompting criticism that public schools behave as “shock troops” for far‑left activism. McMahon signals that such closures could invite federal investigation or funding consequences, especially given Minnesota’s already weak academic performance. Clay and Buck follow with a broader critique of America’s K–12 system—calling it a glorified daycare model that prioritizes union demands over student outcomes—while advocating for parental empowerment, school choice, and more flexible education pathways. Another Trans Shooter A major conversation on rising violence involving transgender-identifying shooters, sparked by news of a British Columbia mass shooting. The hosts link this to previous attacks in Minneapolis and Nashville, arguing that the media and police distort facts by prioritizing preferred pronouns over biological accuracy. The transcript includes an extended critique of mental‑health issues, hormonal drugs, and the cultural narrative that non‑affirmation constitutes “genocide,” which the hosts argue contributes to radicalization among vulnerable individuals. They highlight the police’s admission that the Canadian shooter was biologically male, despite earlier claims of “female,” and examine concerns about public safety, media bias, and political correctness. Jesse Kelly Hangs With Us Jesse Kelly, host of The Jesse Kelly Show and author of the newly released Jesse’s Little Red Book opens the hour with their signature banter—roasting each other’s haircuts, mustaches, and Super Bowl party choices—before diving into deeper political and cultural issues shaping the country under President Donald Trump. A major segment centers on Jesse Kelly’s new book, which he describes as a free, 93‑page collection of his insights on politics, culture, party dynamics, and even food. From there, the hosts pivot into a fiery discussion of the Jeffrey Epstein hearings, expressing frustration that self‑identified victims continue holding press events without naming alleged abusers. The conversation compares the situation to the trajectory of the Me Too movement, arguing that legitimate victim advocacy has been diluted by performative claims, opportunism, and media manipulation. The political analysis intensifies as the hosts look ahead to Election 2026, with Jesse predicting that Republicans may lose the House but retain the Senate, depending largely on the strength of the economy and whether “normie voters” feel financial relief in their everyday lives. The hour also features a humorous cultural debate after Clay proposes that Taylor Swift may be evolving into the “21st‑century Beatles,” prompting Jesse’s mock‑therapeutic concern and Buck’s acknowledgment of Swift’s global cultural dominance.

On this “TACO Trump Thursday” episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck breaks down how market pressure forced Donald Trump to abruptly back off his Greenland threats and announce a face-saving deal—one that looks suspiciously like what already existed—underscoring how easily Trump can be manipulated and how desperate he is to cement a sense of historical relevance. Even as Republicans in Congress continue to appease him, the damage to America’s relationships with Canada and Europe is already done, and Trump’s indifference to NATO and unilateral approach ensures lasting consequences well beyond any short-term retreat. The conversation then turns to the political fallout at home: the perilous midterm landscape for Democrats, a messy Minnesota Senate race, why conventional Republicans still can’t win blue-leaning states without a net-positive environment, and how figures like Bill Cassidy may have no path forward inside today’s GOP. Chuck also digs into the Democratic Party’s looming 2028 calendar fight, arguing the DNC should rethink its early-state strategy by looking hard at Iowa, Kansas, and Nebraska—and remembering that winning rural America, not just big cities, is the only way to build a durable majority. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey joins the Chuck ToddCast to discuss the unprecedented federal immigration enforcement crisis unfolding in his city as masked ICE and DHS agents have effectively occupied Minneapolis in what appears to be an operation designed more for political retribution than public safety. Frey explains the complex dynamics between city, state, and federal authority, noting that Minneapolis maintains a policy of not coordinating with federal immigration enforcement because police officers should focus on keeping communities safe rather than targeting immigrants. He reveals alarming constitutional violations, including non-white off-duty Minneapolis police officers being racially profiled and harassed by ICE agents and residents being stopped and asked for ID based on their accents. With Minneapolis already critically understaffed on police officers per capita, the massive imbalance between local law enforcement and ICE agents has created a tenuous situation where police are forced to respond to citizens being harassed while protesters exercise their First Amendment rights. The crisis has been compounded by what Frey describes as a weaponized Department of Justice that can't be trusted, evidenced by his office receiving a subpoena.The mayor emphasizes that much of the federal action stems from a fraud issue that had nothing to do with illegal immigration, yet racist attacks on the Somali community followed—despite the fact that Somalis in Minneapolis came legally as refugees and most are U.S. citizens. Frey has held discussions with Governor Tim Walz about potentially deploying the Minnesota National Guard and worries about his ability to conduct a real investigation into the shooting of Renee Good by ICE. Frey contends the operation is designed to whip the public into a frenzy rather than address genuine immigration concerns. Finally, Chuck answers listeners’ questions and explains a gripe he has with the baseball Hall of Fame. Get your wardrobe sorted and your gift list handled with Quince. Don't wait!

A Minnesota Senate working group met Monday morning to discuss a variety of proposed solutions to deter gun violence following a Minneapolis mass shooting last month.The hearing is the first public meeting about policy changes since the shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church and School that left two dead and many injured last month.

MPR News senior politics reporter Dana Ferguson joined Minnesota Now with the latest on the hearing.

Rev. Dr. DeWayne Davis is a dynamic community leader, ordained minister, policy strategist, and now a candidate for mayor of Minneapolis. A Mississippi Delta native, he began his career in Washington, D.C., serving as a legislative aide on Capitol Hill and later as Domestic Policy Advisor for The Episcopal Church, where he helped lead the fight for marriage equality before the U.S. Supreme Court. Known for his persistence—what he calls his “pestering history”—he's been a tireless advocate on issues ranging from LGBTQ+ rights and healthcare to housing, voting rights, and reproductive justice. In 2013, DeWayne and his husband moved to Minneapolis, where he served as Senior Pastor at All God's Children Metropolitan Community Church and now leads Plymouth Congregational Church, a historic congregation deeply engaged in justice and community service. He also serves as the first openly gay Black chaplain of the Minnesota Senate, bringing spiritual guidance to landmark legislation on abortion access and LGBTQIA+ rights. Today, as he campaigns to become mayor, Dr. Davis brings together grassroots compassion, pastoral leadership, and the hard-earned policy expertise he gained in Washington to help guide Minneapolis into its future.

Gov. Tim Walz did not mince words Wednesday night in his State of the State speech when it came to President Donald Trump, but he struck a much more bipartisan tone when it came to Minnesota Republicans. During his speech to the Legislature, Walz, a Democrat and former candidate for vice president, talked about the two parties working together, giving a nod to the equally divided Minnesota House.The Minnesota Senate has passed a bill that grants veteran benefits to Hmong and Lao soldiers who fought with the U.S. military in Laos during the Vietnam War.A recent arrest for vandalism of Teslas in Hennepin County has become a political issue. Last week, Minneapolis police arrested a man seen on tape keying six Tesla vehicles around the city. A jury has convicted three Minneapolis street gang members of federal racketeering and murder charges.

The Minnesota Senate has passed a bill providing some benefits to Hmong and Lao veterans who helped the U.S. military during the Vietnam War. In the 1960s and early ‘70s, the CIA recruited tens of thousands of Hmong people in an operation known as the Secret War. Many of those recruits lost their lives. Others fled their home country when the war ended 50 years ago, eventually moving to states like Minnesota.  The bill still needs to be passed by the Minnesota House to become law. DFL Sen. Susan Pha, DFL-Brooklyn Park, is a co-author of the bill and joined Minnesota Now to talk about the impact it may have.  This story was first reported by Sahan Journal.

The good news is that we won't be reading all the Post and Times articles telling us it's time to reach out to MAGA, across the aisle to Gops, pardon Trump to unite the country, etc. Otherwise, you know, it sucks. Our bubble was fun and all while it lasted, but theirs turned out to be a bit more accurate. Probably because theirs now speaks in many national, regional, and local Spanish dialects, and we use Google Translate. It was Hispanic vs. Women's outreach, and the women won when it was something that didn't involve men, like pregnancy. David Waldman showed up to work today, and Greg Dworkin had a Raft O' Stories™, which we sunk in the harbor after we keelhauled the pollsters and fed them to sharks.  Oh, a few items washed up on shore... Russian fake bomb threats, FBI impersonators, billionaire ratfuckers, bad cops, Supreme Court Justices with multiple allegiances… little things that used to feel kind of relevant but are simply microscopic compared to what's next. Wait, don't leave sad! There must be some good news around here… Ann Johnson Stewart won a special election which gave DFL control of the Minnesota Senate! And uhm, Democrats broke the Republican supermajority in the North Carolina General Assembly! Hooray!

Hillary Clinton called Pres. Donald Trump's NY event a “reenactment” of the infamous 1939 American Nazi Party Rally because it was held at the same Madison Square Garden venue – a criticism that was echoed by CNN, MSN, Daily Kos, The New Republic, and VP Candidate Tim Walz. Strangely, they were silent about their opposition to the venue when it hosted the Democratic National Convention with Pres. Bill Clinton in 1992, Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1936, or Marilyn Monroe in 1962. David Freiheit AKA Viva Frei is an attorney and host of “Viva Frei” on Rumble and Locals.

Those begging the former President to be "nicer" are just simply not being realistic about the kind of person Donald Trump is. In other news of the day, Mayor Eric Adams is looking forward to attending next week's DNC in Chicago, the United States sells a $20 billion weapons package to Israel, Jew-hater Ilhan Omar wins her Minnesota primary race, former professional basketball player Royce White wins his Minnesota Senate primary and is set to face Democrat Amy Klobuchar in the general election, and legendary New York Rangers broadcaster Sam Rosen announces he will retire following the 2024-25 season.
