Hey, you know, the 142 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 8: one comment right off the bat that just strikes me 143 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 8: is that you know, we don't show what warrant for 144 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:21,240 Speaker 8: a rest well title late for under the Immigration Nationality Act. 145 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 8: You know, ICE doesn't need a warrant to make that arrest. 146 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 8: So there's a lot that I don't think they understand 147 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 8: about what ICE is doing, and the allegations are. 148 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 3: Just really sad. 149 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 2: I want to spend some time addressing the concerns that 150 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 2: you have. Asking for the foe of the show talkbacks 151 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: and emails yesterday for the post show that I did, 152 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 2: which is available up on the iHeartRadio app. I also 153 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:47,719 Speaker 2: asked for individuals who you know, maybe are friends of 154 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 2: the show, but have genuine concerns about what's been taking place. 155 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 2: And I did receive quite a few messages. As a 156 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 2: matter of fact, I got emails this morning. I want 157 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 2: to play a talk back that came in from a 158 00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 2: friend of the show who said this. 159 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 9: I was listening to the John Justice Show this morning, 160 00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 9: and I just am not hearing conservatives acknowledge that there 161 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 9: are Fourth Amendment rights that are being infringed upon. There 162 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:14,079 Speaker 9: are US citizens being detained and released. I'm looking for data. 163 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 9: ICE has no data. Pro Publica put out an article 164 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 9: saying that one hundred and seventy people as of October 165 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 9: US citizens were detained and released. And so what we're 166 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 9: seeing is protesters not acknowledging fraud, but conservatives not acknowledging 167 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 9: that ICE is detaining US citizens. 168 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 2: First off, and I've been exchanging back and forth with 169 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:35,319 Speaker 2: this with this individual. It's a lot of bold assumptions 170 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 2: that you made that what you were seeing was ICE 171 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: in violation of constitutional rights, Fourth Amendment or otherwise. Pro 172 00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:50,400 Speaker 2: Publica is an extreme left leaning organization who compiles their 173 00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 2: data without the necessary and relevant context to give you 174 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 2: the full and complete picture of what is actually taking place. 175 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 2: The truth of the matter is ICE has rec bonded 176 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 2: to the more egregious videos that have been going around. 177 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: I will share that with you in just a moment 178 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 2: here on Twin Cities News Talk. But let me leave 179 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 2: you with this in this segment before we get back 180 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 2: into bringing about the clarity and the context necessary regarding 181 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 2: the actions of ICE that may seem as if they're 182 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 2: using excessive force. This is Caroline Levitt talking about the 183 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 2: individuals that have been coming into Minnesota and exactly who 184 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 2: they are. And we'll get back to more of your 185 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 2: talkbacks in a moment, and I'll provide to you the 186 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 2: necessary clarity on these issues that concern you because you 187 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 2: care about both sides. You care about whether or not 188 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 2: ICE is doing the right or wrong things, whereas Democrats 189 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 2: only care about using ICE to perpetuate their fake narratives. 190 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 3: Here's the White House Press Secretary. 191 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 10: It says, play out in American communities across the country, 192 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 10: where you have these organized, paid antagonists who are part 193 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:01,559 Speaker 10: of these groups that are actively unlawfully just impeting a 194 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:07,079 Speaker 10: lawful law enforcement operations. They are harassing and targeting ICE agents, 195 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,199 Speaker 10: trying to make it impossible again for them to carry 196 00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 10: out their duties. That's what was happening in this case. 197 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,439 Speaker 10: That officer used his training. I understand that he's been 198 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 10: on the force and he's been protecting American communities for many, 199 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 10: many years. He's an experienced and brave individual who unfortunately 200 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 10: had to make a very tough decision and was put 201 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 10: in that position by these paid agitators who have been 202 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:31,000 Speaker 10: doing this all over the country. 203 00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 6: Caroline, what's called the Trump derangement problem? 204 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 3: Have you heard about that problem? 205 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 2: Twin City's News Talk Am eleven thirty one oh three 206 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 2: five FM. My name is John Justice. I'm glad you're 207 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 2: with the show this morning. Sam's in the master control 208 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:54,880 Speaker 2: booth next door. I feel so blessed to have my faith. 209 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: I honestly, I I don't know what I would do 210 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,720 Speaker 2: without it, because what we're witnessing right now is the 211 00:12:07,760 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 2: direct result of a godless society. I know you hear 212 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,760 Speaker 2: it in my voice because it's frustrating. I know it's 213 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: frustrating for you. I know you get frustrated, you tell me, 214 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 2: But when you're faced with such and I don't know 215 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 2: how else to describe it other than blatant evil. 216 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 3: It's infuriating. It doesn't have to be this way. 217 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: It is as simple as you know, the difference between 218 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 2: right and right and wrong. You know, speaking of keeping 219 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,080 Speaker 2: it simple, let me let me go to this talk 220 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 2: back from the iHeartRadio app. 221 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 3: These are brought to you by Lindall Realty. 222 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 11: It's very simple. For those on the left, it is 223 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:50,839 Speaker 11: very simple. Keith Ellison and his band of Democrats are 224 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 11: suing the federal government to have law enforcement stop doing 225 00:12:56,640 --> 00:13:02,160 Speaker 11: their job. Think of what that is saying, have law 226 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 11: enforcement stop doing their job. 227 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 3: And to that point, listen to this good morning. 228 00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 12: Did you know there are thirty three thousand detainers for 229 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,280 Speaker 12: removal in Minnesota. That's the number I got from a 230 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 12: friend of mine that works in law enforcement agency. That 231 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 12: may explain the fact why we're getting more immigration folks 232 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 12: on the street. 233 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 3: Yep, gotta love it, have a good day, and it 234 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 3: was all by design. 235 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 2: Six thousand plus, it's close to sixty eight hundred almost 236 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: seven thousand. Those are still estimates, but you can probably 237 00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 2: drop it back to sixty five hundred plus illegal criminal 238 00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 2: aliens arrested in Minnesota between twenty twenty and twenty twenty four, 239 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 2: and nothing from the left at all. 240 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 3: None of what we're talking about right now. 241 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 2: The dynamic is exactly the same thing Ice was doing, 242 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: exactly the same thing. If you suddenly had a movement 243 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,640 Speaker 2: there's an anti car movement, but I'm gonna use this 244 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 2: example anyways. If you suddenly had a movement of individuals 245 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 2: who became anti automobile, We hate cars, cars are evil, 246 00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 2: get them off the street, and suddenly they started going 247 00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 2: out and obstructing automobiles. You can easily envision the chaos 248 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 2: that would ensue of individuals standing on street corners, walking 249 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 2: into intersections at green lights, keeping automobiles from doing what 250 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 2: they're doing. Somebody's eventually gonna get run over, They're gonna 251 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:28,800 Speaker 2: get side swiped. 252 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,680 Speaker 3: Chaos. That's exactly what's happening with Ice right now. 253 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 2: And for those of you concerned about what you're seeing, 254 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,320 Speaker 2: like this email that I received yesterday, and I covered 255 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 2: this on the Post Show podcast, but I wanted to 256 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 2: share it again because further clarity came to light in 257 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: the wake after that Post Show podcast yesterday. There are 258 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 2: videos of Ice the author rights, stopping people pumping gas 259 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 2: asking for identification. The subjects do comply, but if they 260 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 2: did not, they would have been I do not believe 261 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 2: these are lawful, stop, says the emailer. If we care 262 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 2: about the Second Amendment, we need to hold the fourth 263 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 2: Amendment also equally important. I do not believe we should 264 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 2: live in a country where we need to show our 265 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:14,359 Speaker 2: papers at the whim of officers unless there is reasonable suspicion. 266 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,120 Speaker 2: Truth of the matter is there has been reasonable suspicion. 267 00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 2: It's the context that's left out of so many of 268 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:25,120 Speaker 2: these videos. If the only reason it is not happening 269 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 2: to you or I is because of the color of 270 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 2: our skin, there's a big problem with that. 271 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:28,680 Speaker 3: There should be. 272 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,720 Speaker 2: They go on to ride that is just as bad 273 00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: as DEI policies. Of course, ICE needs to be held accountable. 274 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,720 Speaker 2: ICE needs to allow journalists to observe and ride along 275 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 2: with them. If we call out bad behavior on the left, 276 00:15:39,680 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 2: we need to be consistent and call out bad behavior here. 277 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 2: Ice can go listen, observers can go out and watch 278 00:15:45,280 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: Ice do what they do. But the problem is they 279 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 2: weren't catching Ice doing anything wrong, so they had to 280 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 2: increase their tactics to draw and bait ICE out. I've 281 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 2: had several of you email about an incident that took 282 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 2: place at a Richfield target. According to another individual who emailed, 283 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,800 Speaker 2: who remain anonymous, they said, conservatives are not acknowledging the 284 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: US citizens are being detained without warrants by ICE. This 285 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 2: is not true. Many conservatives are. I have the evidence 286 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 2: with the email box that I have on my desktop 287 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 2: talking about Roosevelt High School target workers in Richfield to 288 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: Roosevelt High School. I had a comment that came in, 289 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:31,520 Speaker 2: but the individual wants to remain anonymous, so I'm not 290 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: going to play it, but I will read you a 291 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 2: part of their transcript. 292 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,880 Speaker 3: The incident at Roosevelt never would. 293 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 2: Have happened if teachers hadn't gotten in the faces of ICE, Customs, 294 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 2: and Border Protection that were apprehending a criminal. It was 295 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 2: the teachers, the faculty's fault. The schools then shut down 296 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 2: to make a big deal about it. 297 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 3: It's all just theater. 298 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 2: So let me get to the instances, because you know what, 299 00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 2: the Department of Homeland Security has actually been addressing all 300 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 2: these circumstances. They posted on x Yesterday, while conducting operations, 301 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 2: Border patrol arrested an illegal alien from Honduras who was 302 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 2: issued a final order of removal in twenty twenty. The 303 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:20,080 Speaker 2: subject refused to obey lawful or given orders. During that time, 304 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 2: a crowd formed this is at the gas station. After 305 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 2: multiple warnings in several minutes, Border patrol broke the vehicle's 306 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:29,480 Speaker 2: window and arrested the illegal alien. During the arrest, the 307 00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 2: crowd continued to surround Border patrol, who tried to push 308 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 2: them back for the safety of everyone. One US citizen 309 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 2: did not comply with the lawfully given order and instead 310 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,440 Speaker 2: responded by hitting an officer and was arrested. 311 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 3: And the truth shall set you free. 312 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,960 Speaker 2: The Richfield Target incident, the individual was arrested for assaulting 313 00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:59,680 Speaker 2: a federal law enforcement officer under eighteen USC one to eleven, assaulting, resisting, 314 00:17:59,800 --> 00:18:03,440 Speaker 2: and impeding federal officers. As a matter of fact, Border 315 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:09,879 Speaker 2: Patrol Bovino Greg Bovino Border Commander Greg Bovino was on 316 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 2: Fox News talking about what happened at that target store. 317 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: Here's what he had to say agents. 318 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 13: Unfortunately, but something else here as far as what happened 319 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:21,159 Speaker 13: in that target store is truly I felt sorry for 320 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:24,480 Speaker 13: the public and the reason for that. Sean is by 321 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 13: and large ninety percent of the public are happy to 322 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 13: see us. 323 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:29,120 Speaker 7: They like to engage with us. 324 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 13: They like to talk with us and find out about 325 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 13: our missions and what we do. A lot of people 326 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,919 Speaker 13: ask about recruitment and things like that. But when you 327 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:41,360 Speaker 13: have that very vocal five percent, it actually scares the public. 328 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 13: And you know, I actually felt sorry for the public 329 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 13: and the Target store that day because it actually scared them. 330 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 2: I'm glad that so many of you are concerned about this. 331 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 2: It shows that you're on the right side of history, 332 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 2: that you want to make sure that the enforcement is 333 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 2: being done correct, that it's being done lawfully. But do 334 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 2: yourself a favor when you see these videos, give yourself 335 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 2: a moment a pause.

Just you your take on 513 00:29:17,800 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 2: what we're experiencing right now comparatively speaking to back then. 514 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 2: I'm always interested to get the perspective of somebody who's 515 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 2: been involved in Minnesota politics far longer than I have. 516 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:34,719 Speaker 17: Well, if you go back, actually to two thousand and 517 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 17: five was my first session with Tom Emmer and I 518 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 17: were in the same class coming in, so I've been 519 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 17: at this a while. And when we started, there was 520 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 17: Democrats on the other side of the aisle who could 521 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,160 Speaker 17: be relied upon occasionally from time to time for common 522 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 17: sense and putting putting differences aside, and like closing up bills, 523 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 17: where I remember Governor Polenty at that time saying you'd 524 00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 17: fight and fight and fight and say, all right, you guys, 525 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 17: take off your jerseys, figure it out, and get me 526 00:30:09,480 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 17: something to sign. 527 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 7: And that's what we did. You know, that was kind 528 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 7: of how it worked. 529 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:20,719 Speaker 17: And now it's the particularly I'll be, you know, ungracious 530 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 17: to the Democrats, but their committee chairs don't know what's 531 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 17: in their bills. All they know is the talking points 532 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 17: that you get from people like Kelly Porson and they 533 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 17: don't know really what they're voting for, which is I 534 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,600 Speaker 17: think the biggest difference is that it's not like forty 535 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 17: percent don't know, it's probably ninety. So that's I think 536 00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 17: the scariest part of the change in the last I'd 537 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 17: say since COVID, there's been a mark change when they 538 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 17: said showing up was optional at the Capitol and actually 539 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 17: getting things done was optional. So that's the biggest change 540 00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:00,080 Speaker 17: that I've seen is that the Democrats have been co 541 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 17: opted by the far left and they really don't understand 542 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:05,360 Speaker 17: the bills. 543 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 2: Man Dean, was that a so you know you mentioned 544 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 2: the change or over from COVID. Was that the catalyst 545 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 2: or had it been moving. Do you think that way 546 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,960 Speaker 2: for a longer period of time? Is there a way, 547 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 2: you know, is there a quick answer to point to 548 00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:22,719 Speaker 2: one thing in particular that they're brought about, sort of 549 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 2: the diminishing return of your Democrat representative here in Minnesota. 550 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 17: Yeah, I think that being co opted by weirdos is 551 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 17: probably the number one reason. And if that was a 552 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 17: result of COVID or not, I don't know, or if 553 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 17: it just coincided with that. I think that that's what 554 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 17: you can see now is that their members are very, 555 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:53,360 Speaker 17: very virulently like far left, not just left, and they 556 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 17: couldn't pass a test on the bills that they signed. 557 00:31:56,880 --> 00:31:59,680 Speaker 2: Let's get say this piece from Center of the American 558 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 2: experien me in American Experiment dot org. State legislative auditors 559 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,000 Speaker 2: want to know why basic fraud controls were shut down? 560 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 2: What's the matter with Minnesota. So we talked about this 561 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 2: a bit last week, well actually not a bit, quite 562 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:15,040 Speaker 2: a bit. The Minnesota Legislative Auditor the OLA released this 563 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 2: and I'm working off of your piece here. The shocking 564 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 2: new report examining the most mostly examines mostly ignored controls 565 00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:26,800 Speaker 2: over tax payer money handed out by the State's Behavioral 566 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 2: Health Administration. You go on to write in this, Matt, 567 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 2: the audit found that the Behavioral Health Administration did not 568 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:38,800 Speaker 2: comply with the most requirements tested and did not have 569 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,880 Speaker 2: adequate internal controls over grant funds. 570 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 3: It's not an isolated problem. 571 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 2: A culture has developed in the Walls Administration that prioritizes 572 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:50,800 Speaker 2: getting money out the door to desired groups while pushing 573 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,040 Speaker 2: those who get in the way. It's a lengthy piece. 574 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 2: I encourage everybody to go and check it out, but 575 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,400 Speaker 2: I wanted to invite you on to kind of summarize 576 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 2: the most important aspect of what you covered in this piece. 577 00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 2: And you start off specifically getting into how this is 578 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 2: not just about looking the other way relating to the 579 00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 2: red flags being raised when it came to fraud. 580 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 3: Can you expand upon that a bit there, Matt Deane. 581 00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 18: Yeah. 582 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 17: So I think a lot of people think, well, it's 583 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,680 Speaker 17: maybe it's always been like this in Minnesota. You know, 584 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 17: we're big hearted people and we're we're overly generous to 585 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 17: the point of being chumps. But we kind of go, oh, 586 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 17: we're a self righteous lot up here. We got a 587 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 17: bunch of you know, Norwegians and Swedes that you know 588 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:39,160 Speaker 17: are semi communists, will you know, far from back from 589 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 17: the farming days. And we kind of we kind of 590 00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:44,120 Speaker 17: throw that in with the taxes and the bad weather 591 00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:47,720 Speaker 17: that were overly generous. And that's that's kind of why 592 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 17: this happened. And that's not really what's going on at all. 593 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 17: This is about organized crime. It's not about the generosity 594 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:59,440 Speaker 17: of the taxpayers of Minnesota. And I tie that directly 595 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 17: to Tim Walls because I recalled when he started his 596 00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:08,320 Speaker 17: free lunch for kids program, which was actually a politically 597 00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 17: very smart of him to do. He showed up and 598 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:15,279 Speaker 17: he was handing out you know, hamburgers and jello squares 599 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 17: at a school and they said, well, hey, you're already 600 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 17: out of money in this in this program. 601 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 7: What's going on? 602 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 17: And he said, well, that's a good problem to have. 603 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,360 Speaker 17: And he took that to you know, hector and Badger 604 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 17: whoever he was being interviewed by, that there was no 605 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:38,399 Speaker 17: money in that program. And that really is the attitude 606 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 17: that clears the way for fraud. Where if you if 607 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 17: you raise your hand and you say all the money 608 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:50,400 Speaker 17: has gone, or boy, this program now costs one hundred 609 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,399 Speaker 17: million and three years ago it costs five million, don't 610 00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:55,319 Speaker 17: you and we don't have any more people. Don't you 611 00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:57,839 Speaker 17: think maybe we ought to look into it. Then you 612 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:03,080 Speaker 17: are either a problem or a racist or both, and 613 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 17: whether you're within the agencies or outside. But this isn't 614 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:10,480 Speaker 17: a problem that we had ten years ago. We ten 615 00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 17: years ago we were overly generous. Now we are just 616 00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:18,840 Speaker 17: a target for fraudsters who can take money by the 617 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 17: bag fall and they're not going to see any consequences 618 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 17: for it. So that's the big change that I wanted 619 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 17: to highlight and to kind of go through program by program, 620 00:35:28,920 --> 00:35:30,880 Speaker 17: And it is a lengthy piece, but I want people 621 00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 17: to be able to look at it and go, Okay, 622 00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:37,399 Speaker 17: this is a cultural thing that basically is somebody out 623 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:41,200 Speaker 17: front of like it's kind of like the the you know, 624 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 17: I picture Tim Walls like out at Minneapolis Saint Paul 625 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 17: at Airport with those orange flashlights, you know, directing the 626 00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 17: plane right like, you know, moving up to gate number 627 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 17: five for the fraudsters, because that's exactly what they're doing, 628 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 17: is they're clearing away for organized crime to commit fraud again. 629 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 7: People and the. 630 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,799 Speaker 17: Biggest, the biggest victims of this are the people who 631 00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,839 Speaker 17: need this stuff, people with developmental disabilities, people who are 632 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 17: poor who actually need, people who you know, have profound 633 00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,919 Speaker 17: disabilities who rely on these programs to live. 634 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 7: Those are the people who are being hurt the most. 635 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:22,760 Speaker 2: Talking with Matt Dean over at Center of the American 636 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:29,920 Speaker 2: Experiment American Experiment dot org, I'm curious your thoughts on this, 637 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:32,440 Speaker 2: and I've asked this question to a number of different people. 638 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:35,440 Speaker 2: The thing that I can't wrap my head around is 639 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:40,360 Speaker 2: it seems clear that none of this was sustainable, like 640 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 2: everything that you've mentioned in this piece, and you get 641 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:44,560 Speaker 2: further in here and we can talk about it in 642 00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 2: a moment, I think we have some time. But like 643 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:51,160 Speaker 2: hiding fraud by making it untraceable, and maybe that's a 644 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,600 Speaker 2: part of the answer to my question. Maybe they figured 645 00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 2: that they did enough to skew the criticism, they can 646 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:58,239 Speaker 2: get away with it. 647 00:36:58,280 --> 00:36:59,760 Speaker 3: But when I see all of what's. 648 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 2: Being now, it just seems as if it was inevitable 649 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 2: that this would end up getting exposed. And so with that, 650 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 2: it just has me scratching my head, going, you know, 651 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 2: what were they thinking. Did they just not expect that 652 00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 2: it was going to get exposed? Did they anticipate that 653 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 2: perhaps they did make things untraceable, and there was a 654 00:37:20,680 --> 00:37:23,400 Speaker 2: media in the way in which they cover this that 655 00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:27,279 Speaker 2: shields them from any kind of scrutiny. Your thoughts, your 656 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:28,839 Speaker 2: thoughts on that. Do you think that they thought it 657 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 2: was eventually going to be revealed, they would just continue 658 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 2: to have this fraud occur in perpetuity. 659 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 6: Yeah. 660 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 17: It kind of reminds me of of a Sopranos episode 661 00:37:39,640 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 17: where Tony takes over a sporting goods store and he 662 00:37:43,400 --> 00:37:46,359 Speaker 17: basically just runs the thing into the ground with all 663 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 17: the merchandise and credit that he has, and and everybody 664 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:55,839 Speaker 17: knows how that ends, right, And they think that they're 665 00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,760 Speaker 17: always going to get bailed out with more money, because 666 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:01,040 Speaker 17: they always get bailed out with more money. 667 00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,759 Speaker 7: So there is there is a history of. 668 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:09,520 Speaker 17: That in Minnesota, which these programs have a never ending 669 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,320 Speaker 17: a supply of money supplied by the taxpayers of the 670 00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 17: state of Minnesota. You bring up a great point about 671 00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:22,319 Speaker 17: media coverage, and I will give you credit because I 672 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:28,240 Speaker 17: remember when the legislators were hearing from whistleblowers like people 673 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,719 Speaker 17: like Nick Zirwass, people like Steve Dreshouse, people like Merk 674 00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 17: Kansen who were going out to these places, and I 675 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:39,360 Speaker 17: remember Mary saying, you know, why do you have black 676 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,719 Speaker 17: plastic tied up, taped up all over your windows? 677 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,840 Speaker 7: You know, and she's out there trying to get her 678 00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 7: kid enrolled. 679 00:38:46,200 --> 00:38:49,879 Speaker 17: And there was no footprints in the snow of the playground, 680 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:54,040 Speaker 17: there was no diapers in the trash bins, and the 681 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,319 Speaker 17: you know, the whistleblowers were correct. And when these legislators 682 00:38:57,360 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 17: tried to bring it up, they got from from MPR 683 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:06,160 Speaker 17: and the Star Tribune the same business they got from 684 00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 17: the Walls Administration, and you, to your credit, put them 685 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 17: on and actually started some real you know, looks at 686 00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:18,720 Speaker 17: where this money is going. 687 00:39:18,840 --> 00:39:22,880 Speaker 7: So that's really I think a credit to you when. 688 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 2: It comes to others who are out there, you know, 689 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 2: doing sort of the on the street work of getting 690 00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 2: this exposure. Nick Shirley specifically, I know that you highlight 691 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 2: him in here, and thank you for the kind. 692 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:32,920 Speaker 3: Words there, Matt de and I appreciate it. 693 00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 2: You mentioned in the piece Nick Shirley in the Last 694 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 2: the Last Straw. We actually have a new clip from 695 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 2: David who was along with Nick Shirley and exposing the 696 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:46,280 Speaker 2: Leering Center, and they're talking about even further fraud relating 697 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 2: to Somali translators. I'm going to share some audio with that, 698 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 2: and I guess they have another bombshell report that's supposed 699 00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 2: to be even bigger than the Leering Center daycare tomorrow. 700 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,399 Speaker 2: Talk a little bit though about the impact of that 701 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:02,360 Speaker 2: video on what we're talking about right now relating to 702 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 2: the fraud. 703 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 17: Well, I think if you look at what that impact had, 704 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 17: and I don't know how many hundreds of millions of 705 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:16,640 Speaker 17: views it has had, but it's in hundreds of millions, 706 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:20,680 Speaker 17: and everybody in the country is now making fun of Minnesota. 707 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 17: And there's one thing that the left in Minnesota does 708 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,160 Speaker 17: not like. It's being made fun of. It's actually an 709 00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 17: incredibly effective way of getting the truth because they do 710 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 17: not like that at all. That is actually causing real change, 711 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 17: and you see the governor stepping aside. 712 00:40:37,960 --> 00:40:40,400 Speaker 7: He's not going to be running again. That is just 713 00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:45,000 Speaker 7: I think one piece of the problems that Democrats have 714 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:49,920 Speaker 7: in the state. But what you really expose is is 715 00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 7: the compliant media. And in the piece, I bring up 716 00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 7: Scott Stillman, who was the original whistleblower from the Department 717 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:02,320 Speaker 7: of Human Services who said, hey, I'm tracking cash from 718 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 7: the childcare centers in Minnesota to places in Africa and 719 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:12,560 Speaker 7: training camps, and he's a forensic auditor from the FBI. 720 00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:17,040 Speaker 17: I have a problem with that. He got investigated by 721 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 17: his boss and she hired an outside consulting group instead 722 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:24,879 Speaker 17: of talking to the guy. 723 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 7: She never talked to him. 724 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 17: She hired an outside firm to basically smear him and 725 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,239 Speaker 17: spent ninety thousand dollars on that. She got reassigned, kept 726 00:41:34,239 --> 00:41:38,439 Speaker 17: her job. Was never sanctioned for that, but just think 727 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,960 Speaker 17: of what that did to all of the staff people 728 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 17: there saying if I find the wrong kind of fraud, 729 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,799 Speaker 17: I'm going to get exposed and driven out. And the 730 00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:54,040 Speaker 17: compliant MPR published leaked documents from this guy leaked from 731 00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:59,040 Speaker 17: the administration to just absolutely comply, and so did the 732 00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,520 Speaker 17: Star Tribune. So so I think it really exposes our 733 00:42:02,600 --> 00:42:05,960 Speaker 17: media culture in Minnesota, just as much as it does 734 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:10,080 Speaker 17: the Walls administration and their lack of controls like, oh, 735 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:16,359 Speaker 17: for example, keeping receipts or any paperwork for supposed work done, 736 00:42:16,600 --> 00:42:18,640 Speaker 17: which the auditors have a problem with. 737 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 2: Matt Dean Americanexperiment dot Org the piece What's the matter 738 00:42:23,280 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 2: with Minnesota? 739 00:42:24,000 --> 00:42:26,000 Speaker 3: I encourage everybody to go there and check it out. 740 00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:28,160 Speaker 2: One last thing, Matt before I let you go, and 741 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 2: if you can, if it's possible to sort of do 742 00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:34,280 Speaker 2: like a thirty second answer on this Governor Tim Walls, 743 00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 2: he's dropped out of his run for a third term. 744 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 2: We still don't have an announcement on who the candidate 745 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:43,160 Speaker 2: will be. Nobody's really been talking about it over the 746 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,640 Speaker 2: course of the past week since Walls dropped out early 747 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 2: last week, and that being the front runner to replace him. 748 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 2: Amy Klobashar, this is going to be really difficult for 749 00:42:53,880 --> 00:42:56,799 Speaker 2: whoever the Democrats picked, because I'm very much of the 750 00:42:56,840 --> 00:42:59,919 Speaker 2: opinion that, you know, Governor Tim Walls is a liability, 751 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:04,479 Speaker 2: especially with everything happening right now, anybody who announces their 752 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 2: run for the governorship, I think it's going to go 753 00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 2: right back to Walls. Do you support what Walls is 754 00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 2: doing regarding the fraud regarding ice here in Minnesota? Do 755 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:15,520 Speaker 2: you have a quick sort of you know, what are 756 00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 2: your thoughts in prediction about what happens on the Democrat 757 00:43:18,080 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 2: side when it comes to the governor's race. 758 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,480 Speaker 17: This is going to be very, very problematic for them 759 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,080 Speaker 17: because if you look, they would not allow any hearings 760 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 17: on the OLA reports. The Legislative auditor reports that I 761 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:34,439 Speaker 17: reference because it dealt with the Somali population. They said 762 00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:38,560 Speaker 17: that explicitly to the auditor. So they all have this 763 00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:42,359 Speaker 17: issue in the fraud issue. I tell you what, once 764 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:44,560 Speaker 17: you start looking in it, it just gets. 765 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 7: Worse and worse. 766 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,440 Speaker 17: So I think it's going to be a big problem 767 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:50,719 Speaker 17: for anybody on the Democrat side. And I think even 768 00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 17: if it's Amy klobash Ar, if they think. 769 00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 7: That that's going to solve this problem, they're wrong. 770 00:43:56,160 --> 00:43:58,600 Speaker 2: Matt Dean, thank you so much for the time this morning, 771 00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 2: and sorry I was running a little bit late there, 772 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,799 Speaker 2: but it was always great to speak with you.
