At this roundabout at thirty 4 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,600 Speaker 1: fourth and seventeen, flames burn as people stand guard. 5 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 2: We are literally creating a place that we know who's 6 00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 2: coming and going in and out of our neighborhoods. 7 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 3: And good morning, John, incourageable here for all those leftists 8 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 3: who are setting up checkpoints running border checks for their neighborhood, 9 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:46,960 Speaker 3: may I make a suggestion that might make their lives 10 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 3: a little bit easier.

Twin Cities News Talk, 13 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 4: John Justice, glad you're with the show this morning, CBS 14 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 4: News covering South Minneapolis residents creating a roadblock, defining it 15 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 4: as a safety method against ice. Neighbors created their own 16 00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 4: method of public safety against US Immigrations and Customs enforcement. 17 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 4: So is the logic here, and I know this is 18 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 4: an effort in utility, But is the logic here that say, Haha, 19 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,479 Speaker 4: we're making our own border, Like are they are? 20 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 5: They? Are they trying to be ironic in this? I 21 00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 5: don't think so. 22 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 4: The middle of thirty second Street and Cedar Avenue. The 23 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 4: makeshift roadblock turned the intersection into a roundabout. Car slowed 24 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 4: as drivers noticed, some honked, others asked questions, and a 25 00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 4: man brought food for people standing by. Wade Hayes said 26 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 4: he felt safe having his neighbors keep watch for unfamiliar cars. 27 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 4: They just make up things to be stressed about. They 28 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,680 Speaker 4: just make up things that they believe are egregious, and 29 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 4: they don't live in the real world at any of 30 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 4: you like. None of this is none of this is 31 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 4: rooted in reality. It's all just political Democrat fantasy. I 32 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 4: have more examples of this later on. I mean right now, 33 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,359 Speaker 4: as it just relates to the Walls administration and how 34 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 4: politics are conducted in Minnesota. 35 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,119 Speaker 5: It is all fantasy. It is not rooted in reality. 36 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 5: You cannot you could not. You would not have. 37 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,440 Speaker 4: The government here in Minnesota under Democrats leadership, under Governor 38 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 4: Jim Walls. It would not operate or function for a week. 39 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 4: If this was in the private sector, if the same 40 00:02:45,880 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 4: things that were happening in the government are happening in 41 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:55,200 Speaker 4: the private sector, you would not have that company survive. 42 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 4: Les get back to a few, a few more if 43 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 4: your thoughts from iHeartRadio app Talkbacks brought to you by 44 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 4: Lyndall Realty. 45 00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 6: Hey, it goes to the left.

It's a good watch 58 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:48,400 Speaker 4: from a nostalgias standpoint to Clint Eastwood being tasked with 59 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 4: playing a Russian sneaking into Russia to steal an experimental aircraft. 60 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 5: Fantastic story. 61 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 4: It's one that I actually wish that they would go 62 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 4: and remake the effects. 63 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 5: Again, just do not hold up. 64 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:04,320 Speaker 4: But I remember as a kid just how terrifying it 65 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,760 Speaker 4: was to watch that To imagine living in a world 66 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 4: where you could be taken in and never seen again, 67 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 4: simply because you came into the country, you're not from there, 68 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 4: and they're going to ask for your papers stop you 69 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 4: at a checkpoint.

I'm with you, but. 101 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 4: The truth of the matter is these individuals they don't care. 102 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 4: That's why it's so tough to reason or rationalize with 103 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 4: any of them, because they are so they feel like 104 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 4: they're so right. They do treat it as their religion. 105 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 4: While you listen to the show religiously every day. They 106 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 4: treat their politics as a religion, and as such, they 107 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 4: are justified in everything that they do. 108 00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 5: They don't have to make sense. 109 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 4: It doesn't matter if they're hypocrites, it doesn't matter if 110 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 4: they lie. It would be great if you could reason 111 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,840 Speaker 4: with people. It would be great if you could sit 112 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 4: down with any of these people. If you could sit 113 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 4: down with Billie Eilish and explain Hey, Billy, let's get 114 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 4: you a little educated on this whole stolen land nonsense. 115 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 4: As you went and shotgunned this view of no human 116 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 4: as illegal on stolen land. Do you think she's gonna care? 117 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 4: You think she's gonna be reasoned with? There was a 118 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 4: time when you could, there was a time when you 119 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 4: could actually reach people and they would be more inclined 120 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 4: to go and change their view on something when presented 121 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:09,080 Speaker 4: with the truth. But for a myriad of different reasons, 122 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 4: those times they are just they're gone. A lot of it 123 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 4: has to do with how we receive our news the Internet, 124 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 4: social media. I don't mean to wipe out on this 125 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 4: too hard, but I'll just give you a real world 126 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 4: example because we're actually going through this right now. 127 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 5: But we've been watching Friends. 128 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 4: As of late, Kyle, our youngest, hasn't gone through the 129 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 4: entire the entirety of all the seasons, and so I 130 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 4: had been doing a rewatch during my prep As I've 131 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 4: talked about, typically when I'm prepping in the afternoon, I'll 132 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 4: throw something on. 133 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 5: In the background and just let it run. 134 00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 4: And usually it's something familiar that I'll have to pay 135 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 4: attention to, but I want to look up and get 136 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 4: a laugh. 137 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 5: I can. 138 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 4: It's a it's like modern family, or it's the office, 139 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 4: or as friends and I've been doing a friend's rewatch 140 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 4: and suddenly Kyle has started joining me and watching this 141 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 4: and we just end up giggling and all the same stuff. 142 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 4: Melinda looked at me last night and she's like, you 143 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 4: realize that you have the same you know, sort of 144 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 4: maturity in terms of your humor as a nineteen year old, right, 145 00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 4: And I'm like, yeah, absolutely, I don't think I've matured 146 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 4: beyond the age of sixteen. Well, what's amazing and watching 147 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:25,400 Speaker 4: that show just in hindsight now is no phones, the 148 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 4: interactions of individuals, the humor that was in the show, 149 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 4: the way that it was written based off of this 150 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 4: how you could get away with jokes then that you 151 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 4: could not get away with now. And one of the 152 00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 4: reasons why that's the case was because you didn't have 153 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 4: these echo chambers, you didn't have these bubbles that were formed. 154 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 4: Your bubble was this group of individuals around you, friends 155 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 4: and family. And so if somebody was presented with a 156 00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 4: ridiculous notion or idea, and somebody came to them and said, whoa, whoa, whoa, 157 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 4: here's the facts relating to this particular issue. 158 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 5: You might want to get more informed. 159 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 4: You were more likely to have an individual go oh, 160 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 4: that makes sense, Okay, I was wrong about that. 161 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 5: What happens now is something else entirely. 162 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 4: Somebody is presented with the facts relating to an issue, 163 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:22,120 Speaker 4: and all they have to do is hop onto the 164 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:23,480 Speaker 4: black mirror in front of them. 165 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 5: And within a matter of seconds. 166 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 4: Find a litany of videos or commentary. 167 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,679 Speaker 5: Bolstering their false view. 168 00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 4: Because they don't want to feel stupid, because people don't 169 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 4: like being wrong. So I don't know if we'll ever 170 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 4: get back to that. It would be great to be 171 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 4: able to rationalize with, you know, with individuals, but we're. 172 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 5: Just not there anymore. 173 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 10: I have. 174 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 4: Let me, let me share this.

ICE is not law enforcement. They're 185 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 11: also not immigration enforcement. They are literally Trump's personal paramilitary 186 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:29,280 Speaker 11: force turned against civilians, no different than many authoritarian regimes 187 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 11: around the world. 188 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 5: It's just a lie. 189 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 4: It's just it's straight up propaganda coming from a member 190 00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 4: of Congress Democrats overwhelmingly voted in past every single law 191 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 4: being used by ICE in their immigration enforcement right now, 192 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 4: and this woman sits there behind her microphone with the 193 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 4: camera in front of them. ICE is not law enforcement. Yes, 194 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 4: they are a federal law enforcement They can enforce laws 195 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 4: in states. States have varying degrees of which law enforcement 196 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 4: can and what ICE enforcement can and can do. But 197 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 4: they're absolutely law enforcement. They're also not immigration enforcement. What 198 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,679 Speaker 4: is that you got there from Basking Robbin's thirty one flavor? 199 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 4: Oh it's a cup of vanilla ice cream. No it's not, 200 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 4: but yeah it is. It's vanilla ice cream. No it's 201 00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 4: not vanil ice cream. Well sure it is right here. 202 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 5: No it's not. I mean that's the equivalent of what 203 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 5: she's saying here. 204 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 4: And then they are literally Trump's personal paramilitary force, no 205 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 4: different than authoritarian regimes around the world. How do you 206 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 4: rationalize with the person like that? And so what happens 207 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 4: those individuals who you'd like to present with the truth, 208 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,079 Speaker 4: who you'd like to go and show, Hey, you open 209 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 4: border types, You've created a border in your own neighborhood 210 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:54,839 Speaker 4: and you're checking papers. Were you blaming Ice about this 211 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 4: just a week ago? Were you complaining about what they 212 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,000 Speaker 4: were doing? Why do you feel to fight in doing that. 213 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 4: They'll scoff at you, they'll curse at you, they'll give 214 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:06,839 Speaker 4: you the middle finger, they'll call you a Nazi, and 215 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,040 Speaker 4: then they'll run to their black mirrors, and they'll hear 216 00:12:09,120 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 4: comments from radicals like this serving in Congress, this. 217 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,200 Speaker 11: Description, what you have put forward and what we've seen 218 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 11: across this country. Ice is not law enforcement. They're also 219 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 11: not immigration enforcement. They are literally Trump's personal paramilitary force 220 00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:29,439 Speaker 11: turned against civilians, no different than many authoritarian regimes around 221 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:29,839 Speaker 11: the world. 222 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 4: And then thet's just go no, I'm right. Listen to 223 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 4: what she had to say. See, that's what they really are. 224 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 4: And the only thing you can do is keep spreading 225 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 4: the truth. It's the only thing you can do is 226 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 4: to keep spreading the truth because it does break through, 227 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,840 Speaker 4: it does make a difference. I'll give you an example 228 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 4: of this a little bit later on. Children's Minnesota has 229 00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 4: now paused gender affirming care after federal pressure. Miners in 230 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 4: Children's Minnesota care are no longer under threat of these 231 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 4: barbaric practices that have been taking place relating to gender 232 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 4: affirming care for those under the age of eighteen the 233 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:25,520 Speaker 4: Children's Minnesota. That's a win. That's an absolute win. The 234 00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:27,439 Speaker 4: truth can make a difference. You just got to hammer 235 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 4: it enough, all right. Representative Tom Emmer will be joining 236 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 4: us coming up.

I'm not sure 250 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 4: what his expectation was over what was supposed to happen, 251 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,160 Speaker 4: but he was none too please yesterday, Welcome to the show. 252 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 5: By the way, Good morning, Hey, Good morning John. 253 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 8: And as you're talking about our failed governor, I'm just 254 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 8: thinking of Senator John Kennedy from Louisiana. I don't know 255 00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 8: if you saw the other night he was on a 256 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 8: national program and he said he thinks Tim Walls is 257 00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 8: just a less masculine version of Hillary Clinton. 258 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 5: It's got to be. 259 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 4: It has to be difficult for for for Tim, for 260 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 4: for what it's worth, it's got to be difficult for 261 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:01,600 Speaker 4: him to see how you know, he his legacy is 262 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 4: just crumbled around him. I mean, it's all his own fault. 263 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 4: But you know, from his failed run as VP, the 264 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 4: having to back out from the governor's race, and now 265 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 4: the clock is just ticking on his remainder time leading 266 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 4: here in the state of Minnesota. 267 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 5: They can't take fast enough. 268 00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is going to be, you know, on a 269 00:15:18,760 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 4: long enough timeline, Tom, the downfall of Governor Tim Wallas 270 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,680 Speaker 4: is going to be fascinating to look back upon. 271 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:30,960 Speaker 8: Well, John, it really is. The exposure, the revelation. You know, 272 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 8: those of us who worked with him when he was 273 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 8: a member of Congress realizing retrospect now the guy was 274 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 8: just playing a part. You know, he's trying to play 275 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 8: a middle of the road congressman because he was from 276 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 8: a very conservative district in southern Minnesota. And boy, the 277 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 8: second he took office as governor of the state of Minnesota, 278 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 8: I think a lot of people thought he might govern 279 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,800 Speaker 8: as an outstate Democrat who's more common sense oriented. This 280 00:15:56,880 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 8: guy is worse than the most extreme Minneapolis liberal. And 281 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 8: then you have the layer on that that the guy 282 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 8: can't run a one car parade. I mean I wouldn't. 283 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 8: I wouldn't let him organize a buffet is he would 284 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 8: probably be built to all kinds of money from whoever 285 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 8: he would hire to put the thing together. So he's 286 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 8: just been totally exposed. John, You're right, it's of his 287 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 8: own doing, but clearly his incompetence has finally caught up 288 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 8: with him. 289 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 4: So I want to talk about the shutdown deal that 290 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 4: was made in just a moment, but let's keep it 291 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 4: on Minnesota first. 292 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 5: Talking with Representative Tom Emmer, I. 293 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 4: Know you were one of four Republican members of Congress 294 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 4: adopting this idea on new legislation designed to force Minnesota 295 00:16:45,440 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 4: to turn over the voter roles. What can you tell 296 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:52,600 Speaker 4: us about what you Fins Did, and Fischbox have all 297 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,840 Speaker 4: joined together on along with Pete Stauber, who introduced this initially. 298 00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 8: Yeah, well, we mean it was a great idea by peace. 299 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 8: By way, we're all supportive of it, because keep in mind, 300 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 8: it's a little bit less than a year ago now. 301 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 8: The US Attorney General, Pam Bondi requested all the voter roles, 302 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 8: all the voting information from the state of Minnesota, which 303 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 8: the federal government allows or has an arrangement where the 304 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:23,159 Speaker 8: states administer not only are the states responsible for all 305 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:26,720 Speaker 8: state and local elections, but they administer the federal elections. 306 00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:31,920 Speaker 8: And she absolutely has jurisdiction to request these voter roles 307 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 8: to make sure that the integrity that process is being achieved. 308 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 8: Steve Simon, who claims everything has been on the up 309 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 8: and up, Steve Simon has refused to provide the voter roles. John, 310 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 8: He's just sitting on him. He's making the federal government 311 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 8: sue the state of Minnesota. And I've said it before 312 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 8: I think even on your show, you and I have 313 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,040 Speaker 8: talked about this. If you have nothing to hide, why 314 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 8: don't you just turn over the records? And they're trying 315 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 8: to run the cut. I believe on next November there 316 00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 8: must be problems with people on the voting rolls that 317 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 8: aren't supposed to be there. I mean, I laughed yesterday, 318 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,400 Speaker 8: I don't give them the clicks because it's the worst 319 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 8: paper in America. But the headline, one of the headlines 320 00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 8: was it might have read it might have better read 321 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 8: illegal immigrants afraid to participate in local caucuses. I mean, 322 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 8: that's what's happening. 323 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 12: John. 324 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 8: That is not appropriate, and the federal government needs to 325 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 8: know it. I think Pete and the rest of us 326 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 8: decided that we've got to start pushing this a little 327 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 8: bit harder, because if we don't, they're just going to 328 00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:41,840 Speaker 8: run out the clock and people aren't going to know 329 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 8: the truth until perhaps it's too late. 330 00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 4: All right, last item, Tom, before I let you go. 331 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 4: This morning, President Donald Trump did sign bills to reopen 332 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 4: the federal government yesterday evening after the partial shutdown. 333 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 5: He was surrounded by. 334 00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 4: GOP lawmakers yesterday, including Speaker Micah Johnson. 335 00:18:58,040 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 5: Were you there yesterday for this. 336 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 8: By the way, no, no, now, I had so much 337 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 8: fun getting this thing back across the House floor one 338 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 8: more time. That was enough for me yesterday. 339 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 4: What are your thoughts on the deal and what do 340 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 4: you think the future of the Save Act is going 341 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 4: to be. 342 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,119 Speaker 8: Well, first, let's do it reverse. Let's say act For 343 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 8: those that don't know, I hope everybody does know, it 344 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 8: is simply requiring proof of citizenship in order to register 345 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:32,200 Speaker 8: to participate in our elections. Going back to that ridiculous 346 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 8: headline from yesterday in the Minneapolis News, rag, this is 347 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 8: a bill that we all agree on, right and one 348 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 8: of our members from Florida, Ana Paulina Luna, was threatening 349 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,720 Speaker 8: to take down the bill yesterday because she wanted to 350 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:50,280 Speaker 8: attach the Save Act to it. I agree with her. 351 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:52,919 Speaker 8: But the President is the one who said, nope, I 352 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 8: want you to pass these five bills and give me 353 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 8: a cr on on the Homeland Security piece because he's 354 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:03,719 Speaker 8: going negotiated, and if anyone can negotiate this, then it 355 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 8: is the negotiator in chief, Donald J. Trump. So the 356 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 8: agreement was the Save Act will come. I know there's 357 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,200 Speaker 8: a lot of misinformation out there about what John fun 358 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 8: has said he will and won't do. He's got to 359 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 8: control his own membership. But they eventually will have the 360 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,800 Speaker 8: Save Act on the floor. And you know, the President 361 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 8: can do this, by the way, with an executive order, John, 362 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 8: he can order that for federal elections only, that you 363 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 8: need to prove proof of citizenship and you need to 364 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 8: have a voter identification card. These are simple things that 365 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 8: seventy to eighty percent of Americans agree with, and it'll 366 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 8: get done. But yesterday was good because now eleven of 367 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 8: the twelve bills have literally been passed through the House, 368 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 8: the Senate and signed into law by the president. This 369 00:20:56,400 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 8: just doesn't happen usually. You do these ominous bills omnibus 370 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 8: bills at the end of the year, and it's been 371 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 8: a nightmare for thirty years. So it's a good step 372 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,800 Speaker 8: in the right direction. These are Trump numbers. You got 373 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 8: rid of all the woke policy nonsense of the Biden years. 374 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 8: You funded the border wall. You've got all kinds of 375 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,719 Speaker 8: things in here. Our military men and women got a 376 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 8: very small but well deserved raise. There's all kinds of 377 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 8: things in there. And now he's going to negotiate what 378 00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 8: the Democrats want to hold hostage, which is ridiculous because John, 379 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 8: they're holding it hostage to the Homeland Security Bill because 380 00:21:37,080 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 8: of the immigration Customs enforcement reforms that they want, which 381 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 8: are foolish reforms. By the way, if you hear them 382 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 8: talking about these administrative warrants, everyone out there better understand 383 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 8: every the legal alien who DHS serves with an administrative 384 00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:57,679 Speaker 8: warrant has already had full due process and a final 385 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 8: order of removal from an immigration jet. I mean, the officers, 386 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 8: by the way, that are issuing the warrant have also 387 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 8: found probable cause it meets all of the requirements justice 388 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,160 Speaker 8: requirements in a free society. And Democrats, by the way, 389 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 8: who say they want to get rid of it the 390 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 8: administrative warrants, John, are basically just advocating for mass amnesty, 391 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 8: which seems to be their motto for the past several years. 392 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 8: So I think Trump's going to get it done because 393 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 8: they're holding hostage TSA Border Patrol, FEMA, I mean all 394 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 8: of these things that are totally unrelated to the immigration 395 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:40,720 Speaker 8: and Customs enforcement. But under the same umbrella, we funded 396 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 8: immigrations and custom enforcement, John, in the big Beautiful build. 397 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 8: We funded them through twenty twenty nine, So again. This 398 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,719 Speaker 8: is just a foolish attempt by Democrats to make an 399 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 8: issue out of nothing, and I think Trump will get 400 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,960 Speaker 8: it resolved. We'll get back to doing the business and 401 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 8: being the responsible governing party, and we're going to have 402 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 8: a good November. You watched the economy is starting to move. 403 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,360 Speaker 8: By the time we get to this summer, John, it's 404 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 8: going to be the Golden Age, as Donald J. Trump promised. 405 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 4: Now the summer can't here. You get here quick enough 406 00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 4: as we continue to experience a tom em or weather. 407 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 4: I thank you for the time this morning. 408 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 5: Tom. Hopefully we'll talk again next week. 409 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 8: All right, Joh, stay warm. 410 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 4: Coming up the fate of the Quality Learing Center. I'll 411 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 4: give you details on that as Minnesota whistleblowers say leaders 412 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 4: rejected years of fraud warnings. Also a few more details 413 00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 4: on the Children's Minnesota pausing the gender affirming care after 414 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 4: federal pressure. And we'll return to the issue of ICE enforcement, 415 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 4: including those comments from Governor Tim Walls from a press 416 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 4: conference yesterday, and your thoughts from the iHeartRadio app. 417 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 5: Coming up on Twin Cities News Talk eleven. 418 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,240 Speaker 8: Thirty fam one to three point five and on the 419 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 8: free iHeartRadio app. 420 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 4: Dovetailing off of commentary that I had at the beginning 421 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 4: of the show. If you missed the first hour, for 422 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,880 Speaker 4: sure to check out the podcast on the iHeartRadio app 423 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 4: once today's show here on Twin City's News Talk is. 424 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 5: Over. 425 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,919 Speaker 4: But I was pleasantly surprised at Representative Tom Emmer and 426 00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 4: his comments relating to the Save Act and the fact 427 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 4: that we open the government back up. Although I have 428 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 4: a I have a comment from Jeff talk back from 429 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 4: the iHeart Radio app that kind of keys in on 430 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 4: a point that I was making at the start of 431 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 4: the show just regarding the shutdown and you know how 432 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 4: Republicans generally feel about it. But I was encouraged that 433 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 4: the Save Act is still going to be negotiated and 434 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 4: that Trump will be the one handling that negotiation because 435 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 4: it is something that the majority of Americans want. Let 436 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 4: me give you further examples of this. The CNN polster 437 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 4: seems to be the goal the go to polster as 438 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 4: of late, was talking about the very issue relating to 439 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 4: Democrats and voter id as we talk about the same act, 440 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 4: and this is what he had to say just recently 441 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 4: on CNN. 442 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 13: Take a look here, favorite photo ID to vote. Eighty 443 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,159 Speaker 13: five percent of white people favorite, eighty two percent of 444 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 13: Latino seventy six percent of Black Americans favorite. So the 445 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 13: bottom line is this voter ID is not controversial in 446 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 13: this country. A photo ID to vote is not controversial 447 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 13: in this country. No, it is not controversial by party, 448 00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 13: and it is not controversial by race. The vast majority 449 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 13: of Americans agree with Nicki Minaj that, in fact, you 450 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 13: should have a photo ID. 451 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 5: To be able to vote. 452 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 4: So something of a nosten We shouldn't need Nicki Minaj 453 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 4: in order to push that issue. I'm not saying that 454 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:56,480 Speaker 4: it hurts, but the celebrity endorsement should not be a necessity. Well, 455 00:25:56,720 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 4: the actions by Ice aren't controversial. What you see on 456 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 4: the streets, the lunatics, the LARPers, the extremists, the checkpoints 457 00:26:05,520 --> 00:26:08,200 Speaker 4: and all this garbage. They're not representative of the majority. 458 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 4: Even the thousands that took to the streets last Friday 459 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,119 Speaker 4: and our representative of the majority of people here in Minnesota. 460 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,000 Speaker 4: It was less than one percent of the population. They 461 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 4: only make it appear that way. That's the whole reason 462 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 4: why they do it. They want you to believe that 463 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 4: they're the ones that are out there representing everybody because 464 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,480 Speaker 4: we care the most about the neighborhood. So we're gonna 465 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 4: set up a checkpoint to make sure that our neighbor's 466 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 4: a just safe eh. 467 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,679 Speaker 5: And you have a few of the lefty yahoos that 468 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,280 Speaker 5: will be like, I'm so clod that my neighbors are 469 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 5: looking out for me. But again, have a rational conversation 470 00:26:40,160 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 5: with any of them. 471 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 4: You know that the person that they arrested next door 472 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:46,040 Speaker 4: was a child sex offender, right, and you find with 473 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 4: them being arrested. Uh, But they're not representative of the majority. 474 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 4: The majority of people in the country supports doing something 475 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 4: about illegal immigration and deporting individuals who came into the 476 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:02,120 Speaker 4: country illegally. It's get to a few more thoughts based 477 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 4: off of the commentary from Tom Emmer who was just 478 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 4: on the show and the government shutdowns, And again here's 479 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 4: the point that Jeff was making that I had me chuckle. 480 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 10: In thin everyone, I don't know why we on the 481 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 10: right care about government shutdowns. They didn't hurt us last 482 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 10: time when they did the forty five day partial government shutdown. 483 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:26,280 Speaker 10: They just show you how worthless majority of the government is. 484 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 5: Your life goes. 485 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 8: On like nothing happened. 486 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 10: I think we should not ever act with us on 487 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 10: a government shutdown. Let the government shutdown and then just 488 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,280 Speaker 10: fire those seventy percent of people that aren't doing anything good. 489 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 5: I would say, we never act with us on a shutdown. 490 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 8: Have a nice day. 491 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 4: I liked the spirit of what you're saying, but it's 492 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 4: also not very practical. Temporary shutdowns of the government are 493 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:52,880 Speaker 4: largely unimpactful. They go on for too long, and people 494 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 4: do lose money. There are people working for the government legitimately. 495 00:27:57,760 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 5: And they don't need to needlessly suffer. 496 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 4: As Democrats and Republicans go and argue these points. But again, 497 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 4: I generally speaking, I agree with your with your sentiment. 498 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 5: Let's go here, let's maybe me chuckle two. 499 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 10: Good morning again everyone. One more thing, I loved what 500 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:20,360 Speaker 10: Tom Emmer said about walls just being a less effeminate 501 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 10: version of Hillary Clinton, our more effeminate version of Hillary Clinton. 502 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 5: That is spot on. 503 00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,959 Speaker 4: Yeah, that was pretty funny. All right, So this was 504 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:33,679 Speaker 4: big news in my opinion. I saw this story, and 505 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 4: I saw one version of the story on one website. 506 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 5: This was from Fox nine. 507 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,479 Speaker 4: I didn't see it anywhere else, and in my opinion, 508 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 4: is probably one of the biggest stories of the week. 509 00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 4: Apart from the ongoing ice operations, Children's Minnesota announced yesterday 510 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 4: that it would temporarily pause some gender affirming care practices 511 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 4: starting on February twenty second excuse me twenty seventh and 512 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,040 Speaker 4: the press release, the hospital team stated gender health program 513 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 4: is not closed. Staff will continue to offer supportive care, 514 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:06,920 Speaker 4: mental health services, and guidance on medical and non medical 515 00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 4: treatment options for patients, but due to the risks that 516 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 4: they say in a statement. Is one of the leading 517 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 4: pediatric providers of gender affirming care in the region. We 518 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,320 Speaker 4: have recently experienced an increase in federal actions directed at 519 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 4: pediatric health systems like ours that provide this care. The 520 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 4: statement read, these threats jeopardize the stability of Minnesota's only 521 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 4: comprehensive pediatric health care system, and they threaten our clinician's 522 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 4: ability to practice medicine now and in the future. Children's 523 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 4: Minnesota practitioners will temporarily pause prescribing puberty suppressing modifications and 524 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:54,960 Speaker 4: puber tole hormones for patients under the age of eighteen now. 525 00:29:54,960 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 4: They did reaffirm their commitment to providing health care for 526 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 4: all children, including LGBTQ kids. They say this is not 527 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 4: a decision we wanted to make. This is a decision 528 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 4: that we had to make in order to protect our 529 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 4: hospital and our providers. We stand firmly behind the fact 530 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:11,960 Speaker 4: that gender affirming care is evidence based, safe and life 531 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 4: savings for and life saving for transgender and gender diverse youth. 532 00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 4: I'll tell you what's going on here. First off, there's 533 00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 4: not as many people that are going and taking advantage 534 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 4: of these services anymore for those under the age of eighteen, 535 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:29,840 Speaker 4: because the fat is fading. The trans issue will always remain. 536 00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 4: We'll still have these battles relating to men wanting to 537 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 4: go into women's spaces and men competing in women's sports. 538 00:30:38,040 --> 00:30:44,080 Speaker 4: But as we continue to re establish the societal norms, 539 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:51,560 Speaker 4: especially the societal norms on these gender issues, it's clearly 540 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 4: the majority as I was mentioning, that are on the 541 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 4: side of science, two genders and ending this barbaric practice 542 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 4: that's been used against our children. That's what's going on here. 543 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 4: So in terms of the funding, they weren't getting the 544 00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 4: funding that they were getting before. Let me put it 545 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 4: this way, they weren't getting the same amount of individuals 546 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 4: that were going and seeking this care. And so they 547 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 4: stood to lose not only funding coming from the federal government, 548 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 4: but also the fact that this wasn't necessary anymore for 549 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 4: them because they weren't getting nearly as much money as 550 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 4: they as they had. So again, it's one of the 551 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 4: biggest stories of the week. I only found that on 552 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 4: one of the sort of mainstream websites. You got a 553 00:31:39,120 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 4: hat tip places like Alpha News because you know they're 554 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:44,240 Speaker 4: covering these stories. But you would think that everybody would 555 00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 4: have had this splashed across all the headlines. But as 556 00:31:49,920 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 4: of this morning when I was looking, now you can 557 00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 4: count on places like Alpha News and Fox nine covered it, 558 00:31:58,760 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 4: but nobody else did. 559 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, I wonder why. 560 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 4: Maybe because it pushes back against the typical narratives. 561 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 2: Perhaps, Hey, John, I was so excited to hear about 562 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 2: Children's hospital suspending transgender care for minors as well. But 563 00:32:16,440 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 2: they are going to continue treatment for current patients. They're 564 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:23,040 Speaker 2: just not going to take on any new patients. 565 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,480 Speaker 4: Thank you for that again. Talk back from the iHeartRadio 566 00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 4: app Let's go here. 567 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:33,640 Speaker 12: Good morning, John. I don't know if you heard, but 568 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:37,480 Speaker 12: yesterday a young lady sued a hospital I think in 569 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 12: California for two million dollars and one for being forced 570 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 12: into transgender surgery. I think maybe you'll see a lot 571 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 12: of people stopping gender affirming care here shortly because the 572 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 12: lawsuits are coming. They have a great day, John, keep 573 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:55,680 Speaker 12: up the work. 574 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 5: I think that's a part of it too. But also 575 00:32:59,160 --> 00:32:59,560 Speaker 5: I think. 576 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 4: The saddest because it wasn't fad those these issues are 577 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:07,840 Speaker 4: going to remain, don't don't misunderstand, but the news cycles 578 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 4: being dominated by these transgender stories and the ability to 579 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,520 Speaker 4: use them for political capital by the left. I think 580 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,960 Speaker 4: that for the moment, that's all faded away, as has 581 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 4: the desire for young people to identify as trans. And 582 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 4: we were highlighting this heading into the end of last year. 583 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 5: All right, an update on. 584 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 4: The Minneapolis Quality Learing Center. This, of course was featured 585 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 4: by Alphineus highlighted by YouTuber Nick Shirley. 586 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 8: Uh. 587 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:43,480 Speaker 5: It's closed on Tuesday. 588 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 4: Hell yeah, this is according to the Minnesota Department of 589 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 4: Human Services licensing records. The Minnesota Department of Children, Youth 590 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,080 Speaker 4: and Families had the center requested closure of its license 591 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 4: effective Tuesday. The provider is unable to reopen without reapplying 592 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 4: for a license. 593 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 5: Oh that's so sad. 594 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:09,879 Speaker 4: The center's last licensing review in June found several operational violations, 595 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:14,719 Speaker 4: but noted no evidence of fraud. Quality Leering Center had 596 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,760 Speaker 4: received one point nine million from the Minnesota Childcare Assistance 597 00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:20,960 Speaker 4: Program in fiscal year twenty twenty five, according to the Department. 598 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 4: The DCYF said it was made aware on December nineteenth 599 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,000 Speaker 4: that the center intended to voluntarily close, but during a 600 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 4: visit ten days later, it learned it had to It 601 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 4: had chosen to remain open and now is closed. So 602 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 4: I'm assuming that we'll get a whole bunch of stories 603 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 4: about all the children that were attending the Quality Leering 604 00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 4: Center that now have to go seek daycare from other locations. 605 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 4: I mean, it happened with Feeding our Future and when 606 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 4: they shut down all those Feeding our Future sites, and 607 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,400 Speaker 4: we had all these stories of the kids that were 608 00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 4: going unfed and starving children because they weren't getting the 609 00:34:54,600 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 4: food that they. 610 00:35:00,760 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 5: Again, it's not the real world. They don't work in reality. 611 00:35:07,560 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 4: To that point, Representative Hagaman made a very interesting comment 612 00:35:15,960 --> 00:35:19,160 Speaker 4: during a recent committee hearing in Congress. 613 00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:19,879 Speaker 5: Listen to this. 614 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 14: The general Lady from Washington made a comment about people 615 00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,800 Speaker 14: getting filthy rich. Yeah, that's exactly right. People are getting 616 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 14: filthy rich a chosen few in Minnesota, Maine, Ohio, Washington, Oregon, 617 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,880 Speaker 14: and California, absolutely defrauding the taxpayer from one end to 618 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 14: the other, stealing billions and billions of dollars from the taxpayers. 619 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:44,480 Speaker 14: We have folks on the other side, they attack our 620 00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 14: legitimate businesses while defending rampant fraud. You know, the question 621 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:50,719 Speaker 14: that all you have to look at is you ask 622 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 14: the question, if eighty percent of the Smalley community in 623 00:35:53,480 --> 00:35:56,759 Speaker 14: Minnesota is on welfare, why do they need the child 624 00:35:57,080 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 14: the hundreds of businesses of childcare and we're transporting people 625 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 14: to various appointments. If they are on welfare, why in 626 00:36:04,960 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 14: the world are they capable of sending millions of dollars 627 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 14: every week back to Somalia. 628 00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:16,759 Speaker 4: That's a really good point, Representative Harriet Hageman. If you 629 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 4: have eighty percent of the Samaldi community in Minnesota on welfare, 630 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 4: why do they need hundreds of businesses providing childcare? The 631 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 4: Democrats have an unspoken rule. It's don't ask, don't tell, 632 00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:35,480 Speaker 4: just cut the checks. I'm not even joking that that 633 00:36:35,600 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 4: is the rule. They've admitted as much during legislative hearings 634 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,360 Speaker 4: over it. Well, you don't verify, just like with feeding 635 00:36:43,360 --> 00:36:45,360 Speaker 4: our future, when they didn't show up to go and 636 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:48,080 Speaker 4: see if any of these locations were actually providing. 637 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 5: Meals to anybody. 638 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 4: Don't ask, don't tell, just cut the checks and again, 639 00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,719 Speaker 4: in the real world, because the government here in Minnesota 640 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 4: run by the DFL, they're not living in the real world. 641 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 4: But in the real world and in the private sector, 642 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:03,240 Speaker 4: none of this flies. 643 00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 5: Absolutely, none of this flies. 644 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 4: But we don't operate in the real world when it 645 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,160 Speaker 4: comes to politics, and we certainly don't operate in the 646 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:19,120 Speaker 4: real world when it comes to politics under democratic leadership. 647 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 5: Claims from current. 648 00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 4: And former Minnesota state employees in a story from Alphinews 649 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 4: that have been vetted by state lawmakers alleged that their 650 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 4: boss is ignored and rebuked fraud warnings for years, retaliated 651 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 4: against the employees who raised alarms and protected leaders who 652 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 4: oversaw the fraud leyden programs, according to a whistleblower's letter 653 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:45,799 Speaker 4: obtained by The Center Square. We highlighted some of this 654 00:37:45,920 --> 00:37:49,920 Speaker 4: on Monday. If you missed that show, check out the 655 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,800 Speaker 4: podcast on the iHeartRadio app. But the claims were made 656 00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:57,279 Speaker 4: in an unsigned letter to Congress that as it investigates 657 00:37:57,320 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 4: the fraud schemes that built the government assistant programs for 658 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 4: millions of dollars in the state, and you have stories 659 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 4: like this that are erupting all around the country. Federal 660 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 4: prosecutors in Chicago say foreign nationals exploited the US Medicare 661 00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 4: and supplemental insurance systems on a massive scale, filing more 662 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 4: than one billion in fraudulent claims for medical equipment, diagnostic 663 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:29,440 Speaker 4: tests that were never delivered, in some cases never authorized 664 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 4: by patients or doctors.
