We've been warning listeners about a dangerous pandemic treaty being orchestrated by the World Health Organization -WHO-. Our nation averted that threat a year ago but unfortunately it's back again. --Returning to Crosstalk to discuss this latest development was Dr. Michele Bachmann. Dr. Bachmann is dean of the Robertson School of Government at Regent University. She previously served in the Minnesota State Senate then ran for Congress in 2006 and won as the first Republican woman from Minnesota elected to the U.S. House of Representatives. She was reelected and served for multiple years.--Later this month -May 21st through the 30th- the 76th World Health Assembly will be held in Geneva, Switzerland. They're seeking to adopt amendments to the international health regulations and would place the WHO in control over the world. Right now it appears that the Biden administration is -all in- on this matter. If the U.S. becomes a party to this, and another so-called -health emergency- is declared, you can say -good-bye- to your personal freedom regarding medical choices and in general, the sovereignty of America.- -Dr. Bachmann described how during the COVID-19 pandemic, numerous freedoms were lost. This happened because President Biden gave himself emergency powers. This allowed him to simply issue directives such as landlords not being able to evict tenants who refused to pay rent. There was the paying of people to stay home from work which has led to an unprecedented level of inflation, the mask mandates, the shutting down of churches and more. --She believes the Biden administration is hoping to give that high level of emergency power over to the WHO.

In a new series here on Jesse Ventura's Die First, Then Quit we will be giving a platform and showcasing candidates, activists, and influencers who are fighting to bring something new, fresh, and game changing to the worlds of politics and pop culture.In this inaugural episode, Tyrel Ventura sits down with Minnesota State Senate candidate Huldah Hiltsley to discuss the trials, tribulations, and successes she has faced, not only, on the 2022 campaign trail but throughout her very unique life. Including her family's incredibly heartwarming story involving legendary Minnesota Senator Paul Wellstone. A moment in her life that directly ties into her historic run for Senate.Though she is aiming to win the nomination and run on the Democratic Party ticket this November, Huldah's grassroots, community organizer passion to represent with honesty and accountability the over eight-five thousand residents of her district makes her stand out from rest of the two-party pack. Add in the fact that she refuses to take lobbyist money and that her dedication to change the system from the inside out is shaking up the old money, old politics, status quo of the Minnesota Democratic Party and you, my friends, have got the makings for a truly independent, one-of-a-kind candidate.The kind of candidate that we like to feature here on Jesse Ventura's Die First, Then Quit.

Welcome to the gambling news podcast where you can get the latest real money online casino news from PlaySlots4RealMoney.com, Online Blingo,Casino Slots Money, and EasyMobileCasino.com.In our first story this week, Gun Lake Casino in Wayland Township is up for a major expansion. On Thursday, the casino hosted a ceremonial groundbreaking for the $300 million development that will include a 15-floor hotel and a large-scale entertainment venue dubbed "The Aquadome"The project is supposed to turn the casino into a first-class resort that will attract visitors from all over the state. When it's finished, the hotel will feature 252 guest rooms and 30 luxury suites. The Aquadome will boast palm trees and tropical flora with temperatures held at 82 degrees throughout the year. Plans also include a multi-purpose stage that will host live events for up to 2,400 people. The whole project is expected to be completed in March of 2025.Next up, a Glendale man was arrested after leaving his kids in a car while gambling at the Casino Arizona in Scottsdale. Keo Bunchhor was apprehended on May 19 after the police found his 5 and 2-year-old kids locked in a vehicle in front of the casino. As officers approached the car, they managed to talk to the 5-year-old through the rolled-down window. The kid is sad that their father told them he was just going to get the cookie. Fortunately, a by-passer noticed the kids in the car and alerted the local authorities. After arriving at the scene, officers notified the child services and contacted the mother who came to pick up the kids. Bunchhor was taken to jail and charged with two accounts of child abuse.In our next story, a man in Japan was arrested after gambling away most of the money intended for the local Covid-19 relief. The town of Abu in Yamaguchi prefecture was supposed to hand out Covid-19 subsidies to 463 low-income local households. Each family was supposed to receive $780. However, an unnamed town official mistakenly deposited all the money to the account of Sho Taguchi, an unemployed Abu resident. Rather than returning the funds, the 24-year-old spent most of the money gambling in the online casinos. Taguchi was arrested last week and is currently being held in jail on suspicion of computer fraud. As he allegedly refused the town's request to return the money, he's now also facing a lawsuit from the Abu authorities. In our last story, Minnesota State Senate is set to vote on the sports betting bill before the legislative session ends on Monday. The bill would legalize sports betting at both tribal casinos and racetracks, as well as online wagering. However, last week the House passed a similar bill, but without the provision legalizing betting at racetracks. If Senate is to approve the new bill, it will have to work together with the House to resolve the differences between the two legislations. The Minnesota Indian Gaming Association has made it clear that they do not support the Senate's version of the bill, or any other that would include betting at racetracks. Still, the Senate bill has strong bipartisan support and bettors are hoping that some kind of compromise can be reached.

Last year, both state and federal officials announced initiatives to help uncover missing and murdered relatives. Here's reporter Feven Gerezgiher with the update. On October 22nd, 2021, 15-year-old Neveah Kingbird disappeared without a trace. For months, friends, family, and law enforcement have been looking for the Bemidji teen, organizing searches across town and soliciting tips on social media. A Facebook page dedicated to the search has over 1000 followers. Posts are shared all over the country. Bemidji police credit the widespread interest in Neveah's case to increased awareness of the many Indigenous women and children that go missing each year. Cases like Neaveah's are why State Senator Mary Kunesh first began advocating for a Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women taskforce in Minnesota. This is about a community of people that have experienced violence and genocide at highest rates than any other group of people in the United States. Kunesh is a descendant of the Standing Rock tribe, and the first Indigenous woman on the Minnesota State Senate. She served in the House for four years before that. December of 2020, a task force she chaired delivered a report with 20 recommendations to the Legislature. First on the agenda: the creation of an office to lead the work. Kunesh: “Because we didn't want to just leave, you know, do the report and then leave it there to to gather dust, I sponsored a bill to create, the very first in the nation actually, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives office. And that would be a new office in our state government, it would be a permanent office, where we'd have an executive director and three staff members that could continue those recommendations that we put forward. So at this time, we have not yet hired the executive director, though the final interviews, I believe, were just last week, and hopefully that executive director will be chosen. And that person will be made ready to hire her staff of three, and we will continue the work of the task force.” Kunesh says the office was renamed to Missing and Murdered Indigenous Relatives to include the two spirit community. The initiative also inspired a similar task force for missing African-American women. In April 2021, Department of Interior Secretary Deb Haaland announced a push on a national scale, creating the Missing and Murdered Unit within the Bureau of Indian Affairs to coordinate investigations and law enforcement resources between federal, state, and tribal agencies. It released a website last month dedicated to solving cases. The site begins to make data on missing persons available, and encourages tips that might help investigators, with the Bureau offering rewards of up to $5,000 in exchange for information. Kunesh is proposing a bill to fund a similar reward program for the state office which she hopes will be up and running by May. Still…. Neveah's family is anxious for answers and her safe return… If you have information about the case, you can report it and stay anonymous by contacting Crime Stoppers of Minnesota at their website www.CrimeStoppersMn.org, or by calling the toll free phone number 1-800-222-TIPS [8477]. Slow moving process to address long-standing injustices is government at its best. But these initiatives are an example of why representation is so important…. And why voting is critical. Senator Kunesh credits the progress made so far in part to the election of several Native women to the state legislature in recent years: Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, and Reps. Heather Keeler and Jamie Becker-Finn. Kunesh: “We are starting to see more empowerment of our Native American people, and more and more getting elected to office where they can make good change in policy and funding. We're raising our voices. More and more native folks are voting, which is a huge impact on elections in Minnesota. The last election we had the most native Americans participating in the elections and we've ever had.” As legislators consider redistricting, Kunesh has an eye on how different maps impact Native votes. One proposed map combines all northern Ojibwe reservations in one district. “And so I don't see this, you know, the Native American issue, you know, or the, the awareness of these kind of detrimental issues to our native community is going to end anytime. I don't think it's a flash in the pan. I think it's only going to grow, and I think it's going to grow nationally.” Says Kunesh. For Minnesota Native News, I'm Feven Gerezgiher.

Indigenous voices speak on environmental protection and reclaiming political power. What lies ahead in the fight for native rights.John Kane, Mohawk activist and educator, producer and Host of the Let's Talk Native Podcast, and co-host of Resistance Radio on WBAI Pacifica Radio NY joins the Misfits to talk about the indigenous response to COP26 and the final Glasgow Agreement, which the Indigenous Environmental Network has called “disastrous”, as it locks the world into another decade of false solutions, colonialism, and violence against the earth. We talk about the Biden administration allowing a huge oil and gas lease sale in the Gulf of Mexico, along with other leases in Wyoming, Colorado, Montana and other Western states early next year, and how these conferences among elites amount to mere greenwashing as the clock ticks towards climate catastrophe. We also talk about the present and future of protest, particularly indigenous directed protests, the 52nd anniversary of the occupation of Alcatraz Island by native students, and how actions like the Line 3 protests continue this tradition and pave the way for future activism.Ruth Buffalo, member of the North Dakota House of Representatives, and Mary Kunesh, member of the Minnesota State Senate talk to us about how the idea of having sovereign or semi-sovereign tribal nations within the United States seems like an unusual proposition to the general population in the country, how the US government could be a better partner to tribal governments, and what it means to have more indigenous representatives on both sides of these discussions. We also talk about the debate around land use, and how decisions about land use are made, the attention being paid to indigenous-led environmental protection, and to the moral and legal authority native nations have in calling for the end to some major, high profile extraction projects that affect tribal land.Josh Gomez, producer for By Any Means Necessary, John Kirakou, co-host of the Backstory Cordell Woodland, producer for Faultlines, and Dr. Wilmer Leon, co-host of the Critical Hour, join Bob Schlehuber to tell us what they are thankful for and not thankful for in the world of news, politics and culture.

Winston Churchill said the following “Democracy is the worst form of government, except for all the others.” In the late 1980's I had a job in the Minnesota State Senate working for a senator whose name was Allan Spear. He was chair of the Judiciary Committee and later went on to become president of the Senate. I was a lowly legislative assistant and a legislative page in the Senate, so I was able to watch a very small portion of the United States democracy function. I have a couple pictures from my archives which remind me of that time and the importance of the transition in the United States right now. The metaphor I think of is that democracy is like a garden, it doesn't just become beautiful on its own, and requires pruning yard work, getting rid of weeds, watering, nurturing, planting transplanting... Even though Winston Churchill said democracy is the worst form of government except for all others, I can't think of a better one! Let's all give support to all forms of freedom of speech, freedom of expression, health, wellbeing, and healing.

America is facing a double-whammy: a public health emergency and an economic depression that is eliminating health insurance for millions of unemployed. How can America preserve health insurance? Policy makers are weighing three options: preserve the current employer-based insurance, strengthen President Obama's program of offering subsidies to purchase private insurance, or creating a government-run health insurance system. Joel Ario, former Obama health official and a consultant at the Manatt firm, will assess each of these options. He will be joined by the the Deputy Majority Leader in the Minnesota State Senate and chair of the Health and Human Services Finance and Policy Committee, Sen. Michelle Benson.
