1 00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 1: Would you also agree that calling somebody racist is a 2 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: serious accusation. 3 00:00:14,680 --> 00:00:16,280 Speaker 2: If they are racist. I think. 4 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 3: Twin Cities News Talk Am eleven thirty one oh three 5 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,200 Speaker 3: five FM played the entirety of that clip a moment ago. 6 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,560 Speaker 3: As we enter our three here on Twin Cities News Talk, 7 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 3: Governor Tim Wallas admitting identified ing fraud as a racist 8 00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:37,880 Speaker 3: or islamophobic. So why did whistleblowers say his administration warned 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 3: them to stay silent or be labeled exactly? That that 10 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 3: was just one of the viral moments that took place 11 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:49,320 Speaker 3: during that Oversight of Fraud and Misuse of Federal funds 12 00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:52,600 Speaker 3: in Minnesota hearing that took place the House Committee in 13 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 3: Oversight Government Reform hearing just a couple of weeks ago. 14 00:00:56,640 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 3: Representative Brandon Gil was doing the questioning there out of Texas, 15 00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 3: and Representative Gil joins us this morning here on Twin 16 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,959 Speaker 3: Cities News Talk. Good morning, Thank you so much for 17 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 3: coming on the show this morning. I hear that you're 18 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 3: actually in town with Representative Tom Memer. 19 00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,160 Speaker 4: Correct, Good morning, it's good to be here. I am. 20 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 4: We spoke at a Lincoln Day dinner last night, and 21 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 4: it's good to be here. 22 00:01:21,640 --> 00:01:24,400 Speaker 3: What are your You've had some distance now on this 23 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 3: hearing that took place where you had the opportunity to 24 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 3: question Governor Tim Walls and Attorney General Keith Ellison. First off, 25 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:36,400 Speaker 3: I'm curious what your reaction was after the hearing. 26 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,360 Speaker 2: Did you find it successful? 27 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 3: Obviously a lot of things were put on record, but 28 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 3: often these types of hearings, you know, are you know, 29 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 3: they're put forward for a lot of sound bites, a 30 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 3: lot of commentary online. I'm curious for you, specifically, Representative 31 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 3: Brandon gil what you ended up getting out of this 32 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 3: and was this successful in your mind. 33 00:01:56,960 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 4: Well, listen, I'll say the work isn't done yet. I 34 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,920 Speaker 4: think that we made progress in the right direction. But 35 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 4: the whole goal of these hearings, for the whole goal 36 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,919 Speaker 4: of Congressional oversight, especially in this case, is for bad 37 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 4: guys to go to jail. You know, we don't do 38 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 4: this just for show. We don't do this just to 39 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 4: you know, get the viral clip. It's to expose what 40 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 4: the Left is doing and to systematically build a case 41 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 4: that prosecutors can take up so that if there were 42 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:28,080 Speaker 4: people who knew about this fraud looked the other way 43 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 4: deliberately and have engaged in a legal activity, they can 44 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 4: be held accountable. So we're not there yet. That's what 45 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 4: we're still working on. But I think that we made 46 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 4: some progress in the right direction, and we certainly exposed 47 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 4: not only how idiotic and incompetent Governor Waltz is, but 48 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 4: also the fact that you know, he's a pretty corrupt guy. 49 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 4: And I think that you guys have known that for 50 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 4: a long time, and now the rest of the country 51 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 4: knows it well. 52 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 3: And it's so frustrating because there was a moment in 53 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 3: time before I had arrived here. I've been here or 54 00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 3: going on ten years here at Twin Cities News Talk Now, 55 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 3: but before I got here, when I became familiar with 56 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 3: Governor Tim Walls, it was like the worst kept secret 57 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 3: that there was a level of vetting to his background 58 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 3: prior to his rise to governor. But it ended up 59 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 3: sort of it got out, but then the media largely 60 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 3: ignored it, didn't challenge any of what was being said, 61 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 3: didn't bring the issue, and then he of course rose 62 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 3: to prominence where a lot of this background of his 63 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 3: comes out and there's many people sitting back and going, well, 64 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 3: they knew about this for a long time, but nobody 65 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: just did anything about it. Well, all the exposure is 66 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 3: happening now right there is no hiding from any of this, 67 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 3: and certainly after his failed attempt to be a vice 68 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,000 Speaker 3: president running with Kamala Harris, he was really exposed on 69 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 3: the national stage. 70 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 2: What are the next steps? 71 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 3: I know you're working with Representative Tom Emmer as we 72 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 3: talked with Representative Brandon gil What are the next steps 73 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: of accountability for both Governor Tim Walls and Keith Ellison. 74 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 3: What moves are going to be What moves are going 75 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 3: to be made? 76 00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, well Tom's been a huge leader in the side. 77 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 4: It's been awesome to be to be in the side 78 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 4: with him. But listen, we've the first step is is 79 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 4: identifying what happened, and that's what these hearings do. Then 80 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 4: it is we have subpoena power on the Oversight Committee. 81 00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 4: We can subpoena documents, we can bring people in for depositions, 82 00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,400 Speaker 4: and we've been going through that process. That's the stage 83 00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 4: that we're in right now. Once we build up what 84 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,719 Speaker 4: I think, you know, we'll very quickly become enough evidence 85 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 4: that can create a legal case. You know, we've got 86 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:35,480 Speaker 4: the case in public opinion. We need to develop a 87 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 4: legal case. Then we can refer that to the DOJ 88 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 4: of other prosecutors who can start going after people. And 89 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,279 Speaker 4: again that is the goal. That's sort of where we 90 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,839 Speaker 4: are right now. And this is something that the DJ 91 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 4: is definitely interested in because this is such an egregious, 92 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 4: a gregious scam and fraud that you know, candidly, this 93 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 4: is not just something you guys are talking about here 94 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 4: in Minnesota. This is one of the biggest questions I 95 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 4: get in the DFW area is what in the world 96 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 4: is going on with the Somali fraud in Minnesota that's 97 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 4: laundered nineteen billion plus dollars of our tax money. So again, 98 00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 4: what we really want to see is we want to 99 00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 4: see the DJ take this out and start prosecuting people. 100 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,120 Speaker 3: Well, and what we're also finding out is, and it 101 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 3: was kind of anticipated, was that, you know, Minnesota was 102 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 3: dominating the news cycle prior to Operation Metro Surge, in 103 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 3: which we continue to dominate the news cycle, but prior 104 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 3: to that, it was all about the fraud. I know 105 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 3: that you had talked about this last year, even going 106 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 3: back to December. The Walls Act in attempts to prevent 107 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 3: a Minnesota scale fraud from from ever happening again. But 108 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 3: one of the predictions made was that we were going 109 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,719 Speaker 3: to find out that it wasn't exclusive to Minnesota and 110 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 3: that this fraud has been taking place across the country. 111 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: There's a systemic issue to this. 112 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 3: Are we going to be able to address this comprehensively 113 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 3: on a nation wide level? Representative Brandon Gill and how 114 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: long can we expect that to take? 115 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and we should. We kind of have to. I 116 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 4: think that we'll see similar fraud in Ohio and of 117 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 4: course California and other Blue states and maybe some Red 118 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 4: states too. And I'm happy to go after fraud wherever 119 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 4: it is. But I think this boils down to two 120 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 4: different primary issues that we have to address nationally. One 121 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 4: is immigration, which is allowing unfettered, basically unrestricted immigration from 122 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,120 Speaker 4: countries like Somalia, which are clan based societies where this 123 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,279 Speaker 4: type of interaction with government, where you're just trying to 124 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 4: get as much as you possibly can from government, that's 125 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 4: the norm there. Defrauding the government is normal in Somalia, 126 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 4: and why we would have basically limitless mass migration from 127 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 4: Somalia into the United States is beyond me. And I 128 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 4: think it's beyond most Americans. So I think that's something 129 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 4: we ought to stop. And I have a bill that 130 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 4: would span immigration from Somalia for five years. That's a 131 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 4: pretty reasonable response. But second, I think we have an 132 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,599 Speaker 4: issue at the welfare state as well, where you have 133 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 4: especially where you have programs that are funded seterally but 134 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 4: administered at the state level, where there's not an incentive 135 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 4: for state lawmakers, in this case Democrats, to ensure that 136 00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 4: these programs are actually run with integrity. I think that's 137 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 4: something that needs to be rained in as well. So 138 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 4: it's kind of a two two front issue. But if 139 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 4: we don't deal with it nationally, this is going to 140 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 4: happen again. 141 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,720 Speaker 3: Before we let you go again, talking with Representative Brandon 142 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 3: Gill and thank you for the for the time this morning. 143 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,040 Speaker 3: Two things, just really quick. First question, and then I 144 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 3: have one more regarding ICE and TSA. 145 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: But as you. 146 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 3: Become, you know, privy to the fraud that's taking place 147 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:58,000 Speaker 3: here in Minnesota, I'm just curious your own personal feelings 148 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 3: about the issue. You know, what about the troubles you 149 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 3: the most based off of what it is that's been 150 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: revealed and what you've learned specifically here in Minnesota. Is 151 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 3: there something that came out of that hearing or something 152 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,120 Speaker 3: that you've learned between then and now that really sort 153 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 3: of sticks out in your mind. 154 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, there's one of them. Is is just 155 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 4: the scale, But I think it's it's the fact that 156 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 4: Democrats in the state knew about the fraud and deliberately 157 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 4: turned the other way. Governor waltz Is known about this 158 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 4: for years and deliberately. 159 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 5: Looked the other way because he didn't want to rock 160 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 5: the vote. 161 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 4: With a key Democrat voting block. 162 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 5: In other words, he basically said, you guys can. 163 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 4: Defraud American taxpayers, I'm going to look the other way. 164 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 4: In exchange, I expect you to vote Democrat. I mean, 165 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 4: that is so wildly un American and corrupt, although I 166 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 4: will say it is par for the course out of 167 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:57,479 Speaker 4: the Democrat political playbook. 168 00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 5: But that's what sticked out the most to me, And 169 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 5: I think it's because it's a level. 170 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 4: Of corruption that I think, really, I mean, really strikes 171 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 4: at the heart of who we are as a country 172 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:12,479 Speaker 4: and how our government actually should operate and for whom. 173 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 3: Talking with Representative Brandon Gill, I know we're keeping on 174 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:16,920 Speaker 3: a little bit longer and I appreciate that. 175 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 2: Just one more quick question on this. 176 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 3: You know, TSA obviously defunded right now because of the 177 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 3: moves by Democrats refusing to go and and open up 178 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 3: the partial government shut down. We now have ICE agents 179 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 3: that are in select airports around the country, and we're 180 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 3: seeing positivity come of that. The wait times have gone down. 181 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 3: I thought it was a brilliant move by President Donald 182 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 3: Trump to require that ICE agents don't wear masks at 183 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 3: the airport. He's making a very you know, specific example 184 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 3: of you know, when they're out enforcing and arresting individuals, 185 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 3: it's one thing for their own protection, but dealing with 186 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,520 Speaker 3: the public, they shouldn't be wearing masks. This seems to 187 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,120 Speaker 3: have backfired on Democrats. What do you think the end 188 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 3: game is going to be with this move to have 189 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 3: ICE agents assist a TSA. 190 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:05,079 Speaker 4: Well, I think it is backfire on Democrats because no 191 00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,679 Speaker 4: matter what, they're going to be going after and attacking. 192 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,319 Speaker 5: I sage it just because they simply don't want. 193 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 4: The president enforcing our immigration laws. What I hope it 194 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 4: does is I hope it puts pressure on Democrats to 195 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 4: wake up and realize that they're actually harming real Americans here. 196 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 4: You've got tsa agents right now who are working hard. 197 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 4: We're having to sleep in their car because they can't 198 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,680 Speaker 4: afford to drive the work, who are having to sell 199 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,440 Speaker 4: blood to make ends meet. I mean, it is so 200 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 4: over the top what Democrats are doing. And again they're 201 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 4: doing it because they want to handstring the president from 202 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 4: carrying out deportations, which. 203 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 5: He was elected to do in the first place. 204 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 4: So I hope it brings Democrats to the table, so 205 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 4: they'll say, listen, we will reopen the government will fund DHS, 206 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,559 Speaker 4: just like we had agreed to originally. By the way, 207 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 4: we had a bipartisan agreement with Democrats about a month 208 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 4: or so ago before they backed out of it for 209 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 4: their perceived political gain. But I hope it wakes them 210 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 4: up a little bit. 211 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 3: Representative Brandon gil thank you so much for taking some 212 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:09,320 Speaker 3: time out this morning. 213 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 2: I greatly appreciate it. 214 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 3: And I look forward to the next time that you 215 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 3: and I get a chance to talk, and hopefully it's 216 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 3: about some accountability regarding the regarding all the fraud. 217 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 4: Yep, thanks for having me coming up. 218 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:27,040 Speaker 3: Speaking of fraud, potentially Keith Ellison returns fraud LinkedIn donations. 219 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 3: I'll give you the details courtesy of Bill Glahn at 220 00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 3: the center of the American Experiment. We'll get back to 221 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 3: more of your talkbacks as well on the iHeartRadio app. 222 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 3: You're listening to Twin Cities News Talk AM eleven thirty 223 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 3: and one oh three five FM. 224 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 4: Hey, good morning, John. 225 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,880 Speaker 6: You should I ask Representative Gil if he had talked 226 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 6: about the Somali immigration problem with Tom Emmer, who I 227 00:11:56,960 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 6: believe back in the day was one of the co 228 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 6: sponsors to help with the Somali immigration. 229 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 3: Yes, and I've addressed that, and I just wanted to 230 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,880 Speaker 3: use that talk back on Twin Cities News Talk to 231 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,080 Speaker 3: bring it back up again. So this goes back well 232 00:12:14,120 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 3: over a decade. Representative Tom Emmer had been a part 233 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 3: of creating the Somali Caucus. We had Tom on the 234 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 3: show several weeks ago when this issue first emerged, and 235 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 3: I asked him specifically about it. I am not going 236 00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 3: to repeat because I don't want to get wrong what 237 00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 3: Tom Emmer said at the time if you're curious what 238 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 3: he had to say in explaining that because things were 239 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 3: dramatically different back then, we have people that legally immigrated 240 00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 3: to the country all the time, and while we're having 241 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 3: an issue now. The issues back then weren't as prevalent, 242 00:12:54,280 --> 00:13:00,240 Speaker 3: not nearly as prevalent as they are now. So we 243 00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 3: did talk about that with Tom Emmer. He addressed it 244 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 3: in full, and I would encourage anybody that would like 245 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 3: to hear his comments to simply go into the iHeartRadio app, 246 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 3: look up the show and just search Tom Memmer. You'll 247 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 3: find it as one of the archived of podcasts available 248 00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 3: for you to listen to at anytime. 249 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 7: Good morning, this is kW. I found a great city 250 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 7: of Minneapolis. You know, I am still trying to figure 251 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,560 Speaker 7: out one. I'm still wondering why my Democrat Party doesn't 252 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,120 Speaker 7: like Donald Trump. Everything he does. They have to be 253 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 7: a can sprint. It blows my mind because there are 254 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 7: some things that the Democrat Party can probably do to 255 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 7: do for the people with Donald Trump's approval. But politics 256 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 7: is not for the faint of heart. Everybody, have a 257 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 7: great day. 258 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 2: By kW. 259 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 3: You're absolutely right. I put a video up yesterday about 260 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: this very issue. There was a montage of it was 261 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 3: Kamala Harrison, Joe Biden talking about Iran and their whole 262 00:13:58,160 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 3: You know, what do you say to Iran who is 263 00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,679 Speaker 3: threatening the US? And its allies, and they do the 264 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 3: whole don't And then there's a clip that follows it 265 00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 3: up of President Donald Trump at a campaign rally saying 266 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 3: He's gonna bomb the blank out of them. That's why 267 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 3: I voted for the president. But the point that I 268 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 3: made in that video was exactly what you said. The 269 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 3: biggest mistake that Democrats ever made was going all in 270 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 3: on their opposition to Trump. Trump just wants to be successful, 271 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 3: and especially less so now with his second term, and 272 00:14:31,880 --> 00:14:35,080 Speaker 3: Biden wedged him between that. But during that first term, 273 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:38,160 Speaker 3: I guarantee you the President Donald Trump would have gone 274 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 3: along with a lot of Democrat proposals and initiatives that 275 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 3: they never would have been able to have passed or 276 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:50,400 Speaker 3: gotten support from the President of with any other Republican 277 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:55,520 Speaker 3: president if they had conceded for some of the policy 278 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 3: items that he wanted to move forward on, specifically relating 279 00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 3: to immigrant because that's an issue that used to be 280 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 3: a bipartisan This is why former Presidents Clinton and Obama, 281 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 3: Hillary Clinton, even Joe Biden back in the day as VP, 282 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 3: they all sounded like Republicans on the issue of immigration. 283 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:20,200 Speaker 3: But the party has been radicalized now they'll never relent 284 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,960 Speaker 3: from their opposition, NonStop opposition to President Donald Trump, and 285 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: it's to their own detriment because if they had done 286 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 3: that in that first term, and I've said this before, 287 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 3: you would have done two things. 288 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 2: One, you wouldn't be in the. 289 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 3: Position you are now to oppose everything that Trump does, 290 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,880 Speaker 3: making you look a bunch of idiots, especially on issues 291 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 3: like having ice go to airports to fill in the 292 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 3: stopgap for TSA agents because you won't reopen the government 293 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 3: because of your opposition to ice, which. 294 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: Is already fully funded. 295 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: But if they'd worked with the president during that first term, 296 00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 3: they won could have gotten some of their policies passed. 297 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 3: I could have undermined the support of President Donald Trump 298 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 3: because there would have been plenty of Republicans that would 299 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 3: have been upset that. 300 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 2: He was working with Democrats. 301 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 3: It's ever gonna happen now, because, as I've also said 302 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 3: on the show many times, the truth of the matter is, 303 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 3: I'm somewhat glad that Joe Biden had those four years 304 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 3: between terms, because I don't think we would have had 305 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:28,880 Speaker 3: a second consecutive President Donald Trump term like we're experiencing now, 306 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 3: and based off of the onslaught of opposition that Trump 307 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 3: has dealt with since then. He's not going to work 308 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 3: with Democrats now. Why would he work with Democrats now? 309 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 3: So now they're stuck in this position where they have 310 00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 3: to oppose every single thing that he does in order 311 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 3: to appease their broken and brainwashed base. Why do you 312 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 3: think they're having another No King's Rally coming up on 313 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 3: the twenty eighth. Bruce Springsteen is performing at it. By 314 00:16:59,800 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 3: the way, way, we'll talk more about this before we 315 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 3: wrap up the show today. Because they have to appeal 316 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 3: to the style over substance. They have no choice. This 317 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 3: is how they have to fire up their base. Because 318 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 3: they're so off on their policies, they have to resort 319 00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 3: to the activist tactics of attempting to go and motivate 320 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:21,680 Speaker 3: individuals by having these large gatherings of people that'll be 321 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 3: dressed in all kinds of ridiculous costumes, have all the 322 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 3: ridiculous signs out making all of the stupid nonsensical arguments 323 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 3: with your leftist performers out there with their new protest 324 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 3: songs the streets of Minneapolis have at it. Because my 325 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 3: view on that never changes. I would much rather have 326 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:50,200 Speaker 3: a bunch of yahoos going out on a Saturday, wasting 327 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 3: their time gathering in mass to irrationally protest President Donald 328 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:57,480 Speaker 3: Trump and expending all that energy.

We're in the streaming world now, so people 396 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:34,719 Speaker 9: know that, and they're gonna wait, and it's it's an 397 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 9: Amazon movie, so you know, they'll make up their money 398 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 9: on the back end. I think it's a little overblown 399 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 9: to call it a loss, So I don't know. 400 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,080 Speaker 2: They're gonna make up their money on the front end. Well, 401 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 2: I'm looking. 402 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 3: I'm looking at every single headline project Hail Mary blast 403 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 3: off best for Amazon MGM project Hail Mary becomes twenty 404 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 3: twenty six the biggest. 405 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 2: Box office debut. 406 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 3: Weekend box office project. Hail Mary scores big win for Amazon. 407 00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 3: Four lessons Hollywood should learn but won't because of its success. 408 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 3: Audiences want originality, hope, Ryan Gosling and Ryan Gosling. 409 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 2: That's why it's sorted this weekend. 410 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 3: They're actually anticipating that the box office drop off week 411 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 3: to week is going to be incredibly small, meaning it 412 00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:27,199 Speaker 3: is going to recoup and go beyond the amount of 413 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 3: money that it's already made. It cracks me up because 414 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 3: I'm assuming that's just bait. Unless Eric is just that stupid. 415 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 3: I'm assuming it's just bait because he figured we take 416 00:22:37,280 --> 00:22:38,120 Speaker 3: the bait and play it. 417 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 2: And that's the case. Hey, dude, you know what you won. 418 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 3: But if you actually believe what you're saying, you're as 419 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 3: ignorant as most people are. Assuming based off of the 420 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 3: commentary that you leave, especially on this particular issue, and 421 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 3: of all the things that I say for three hours 422 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 3: every single morning, that's what you want to go and 423 00:22:58,400 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 3: gravitate towards, you know what? 424 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 2: I just I think that actually speaks. 425 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 3: More about the quality of the show that I put 426 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 3: out every single day than it does anything else. 427 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,080 Speaker 9: I don't think Amazon has to risk going out of business. 428 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 3: No, they're going to make a ton of money, right 429 00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 3: Andy Weer is talking about writing a sequel if you 430 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 3: can come with a good story, because this is already 431 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 3: going to be a massive box office hit. Now, this 432 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,400 Speaker 3: would have been your talk back of the day if 433 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 3: it hadn't been for Eric. So I want to give 434 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 3: some credit where credit is due to Raleigh here.

The last donor listed, 525 00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:00,679 Speaker 3: Khalid Omar, has the most interesting backstory. In May of 526 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four, The Minnesota Reporter said that Excuse Me 527 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,439 Speaker 3: Reformer reported that Omar testified on behalf of feeding our 528 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 3: future defendant Muktar Sharif, who was convicted in the case. 529 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:18,960 Speaker 3: The Reformer described Omar as the director of the Dar 530 00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 3: Al Farouk Mosque in Bloomington.

In addition to the political nonprofit Isaiah 534 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 3: as a community organizer. As recently as late November of 535 00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 3: twenty twenty five, Omar appears in local media as a 536 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 3: spokesperson for the nonprofit. CBS reported on a protest against 537 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 3: President Donald Trump that was held in Minneapolis. 538 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: We know what our president has done. 539 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 3: It is an attack on our community, said Khalid Omar. 540 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:08,560 Speaker 3: Now Channel five quotes Omar from the same event. So 541 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 3: this has been very scary. A lot of people are fearful, 542 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 3: declared Khalid Omar, a. 543 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 2: Dar Alfaaruk board member. 544 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 3: Last month, the Washington Free Beacon reported Omar's affiliation with 545 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,880 Speaker 3: a new nonprofit, the Human Development Fund, based in Michigan, Oh. 546 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:28,800 Speaker 3: Come on, that's like a stone's throwaway from the People's 547 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:34,680 Speaker 3: Fund from Seinfeld Money for People as the Free Beacon reports. 548 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:43,080 Speaker 3: HDF founder and ceoh ab D Hiram Karani is an 549 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 3: imam at Dar Alfaaruk, a predominantly Somali mosque near Minneapolis 550 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 3: that served as a food distribution site for Feeding Our Future. 551 00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 3: The HDF Director of Fundraising Events, Khalid Omar is the 552 00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 3: director at Dar Alfaaruk. Now that HDF founder and CEO 553 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 3: testified on behalf of Sharif in the twenty twenty four trial, 554 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 3: Ellison had previously returned a twenty five hundred dollars donation 555 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 3: from another Feeding our Future defendant, lizbon Alshire, back in 556 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, soon after al Shire's twenty twenty two 557 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 3: indictment in the case. Al Shire would later plead guilty. 558 00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 3: Stop for just a second here, Well, this is one 559 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 3: more point. Also in twenty two, Ellison returned to twenty 560 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:31,960 Speaker 3: five hundred dollars donation from another notorious fraudster, Sam Bankman, 561 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 3: freed of the FTX cryptocurrency fame. And there's one more 562 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 3: twenty five hundred dollars donation worth noting. This was an 563 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 3: individual who served as the CEO of the Free Food 564 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 3: nonprofit Youth Leadership Academy, also Gargar Family Services. Keith Ellison, 565 00:30:53,040 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 3: as Attorney General, actually sued Gargar, forcing the nonprofit to 566 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 3: dissolve in twenty twenty four. Notwithstanding the terms of the agreement, 567 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,960 Speaker 3: Allison has retained the twenty twenty one donation of twenty 568 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 3: five hundred dollars and went on to pocket an additional 569 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,760 Speaker 3: four hundred dollars in donations from the individual with Gargar. 570 00:31:13,800 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 3: In twenty twenty five. Bill Glahn writes at the end, 571 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 3: no hard feelings. I guess the point I wanted to 572 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 3: make on all of this is that, you know, in 573 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 3: a sane and rational world, while there's no wrongdoing here, 574 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,600 Speaker 3: inasmuch as Attorney General Keith Ellison went and gave the 575 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:39,800 Speaker 3: money back, the view of all of this in and 576 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 3: of itself should have been damaging enough to this individual 577 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,479 Speaker 3: to not be able to run for office again. I mean, 578 00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 3: the conflict of interest here, it's it's right, it's all 579 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 3: right there. I just laid it all out. The fact 580 00:31:56,800 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 3: that he went and returned to this money again nothing illegal. 581 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,600 Speaker 3: He did the right thing in returning the money. But 582 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 3: the fact that he took these donations in the first place, 583 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 3: and all of these individuals were tied to the feeding 584 00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 3: our future scandal, and many of them have been convicted. 585 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:18,280 Speaker 13: Come on already, hey, John Robin Tonka here, you know, 586 00:32:18,360 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 13: since we're going Seinfeld, I can't think of a more 587 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 13: appropriate phrase than remember, it's not a lie if you 588 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 13: believe it. 589 00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,680 Speaker 14: So Ellison, the state attorney general, who was supposed to 590 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:38,000 Speaker 14: be up on the law, returns campaign donations that were illegal, 591 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 14: maybe from I should say. 592 00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:41,800 Speaker 2: Criminal penhow in front of it? 593 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 4: Right? 594 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 2: And what does he do? He gives the. 595 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 14: Money back to the people that gave it to him, 596 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 14: who stole it from the taxpayers. That money should go 597 00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 14: directly and to tax payers. 598 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:59,600 Speaker 12: Fun So Allison returned campaign donations. But wasn't that money 599 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 12: that he received, wasn't that money actually fraudulently. 600 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:06,680 Speaker 2: Acquired by these guys? 601 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 12: Where does that money? 602 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 2: Giving back fraudulent money, give him. 603 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 12: Back stolen goods to somebody who stole those goods? 604 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 2: Huh? I know, Just go ahead and throw in the 605 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 2: make it make sense. Listen. 606 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:29,959 Speaker 3: The mere appearances of all of this is enough. Should 607 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 3: be should have been enough to go and hold him accountable. 608 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 3: At least the voters should care. Unfortunately, again with the 609 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 3: broken and brainwashed. It doesn't matter, you know, to that point. 610 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:45,760 Speaker 3: This was a clip that I had earlier that I 611 00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 3: did not share. We had Representative Brandon Gillan earlier this hour. 612 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: If you missed it, be sure to check out the 613 00:33:52,360 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 3: podcast available on the iHeartRadio app. 614 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 2: We'll get to it in just a moment. 615 00:33:55,800 --> 00:33:57,320 Speaker 3: But you know, to the point that I was just 616 00:33:57,360 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 3: making regarding Keith Ellison, here's the clip during that fraud 617 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 3: hearing back on March third or fourth, where Walls ends 618 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 3: up admitting that he. 619 00:34:05,680 --> 00:34:07,200 Speaker 2: Is responsible for fraud in the state. 620 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 3: And of course you and I both know, apart from 621 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 3: him not running for reelection, right, he's not been held 622 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 3: accountable for any of this. 623 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:18,080 Speaker 4: When did you become governor in January of twenty nineteen? 624 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 1: Twenty nineteen, okay, so using twenty eighteen as a baseline, 625 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: do you know what that program paid in medicaid claims? 626 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:27,680 Speaker 4: I do not, Congressman, It's about. 627 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,920 Speaker 1: Six hundred and seventy one thousand dollars.
