It's not about him resigning. It's 109 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 2: about people calling for him to resign and him having 110 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 2: to go and answer for it. 111 00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: Let's get into this, by the way. 112 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:10,080 Speaker 2: So the story from the City Journal Minnesota is drowning 113 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 2: and fraud. In many cases, the fraud has allegedly been 114 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 2: perpetuated by members of the Minnesota sizable Somali community. Federal 115 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 2: counter terrorism sources confirmed that millions of dollars in stolen 116 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 2: funds have been sent back to Somalia. A certain terrorist 117 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 2: expert whom I'm close friends with is completely unsurprised by this, 118 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 2: while he still says it's shocking He's not surprised this 119 00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 2: is been taking place. He says, wherein they ultimately landed 120 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: in the hands of a terror group al Shabab, as 121 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 2: one that confidential source put it, the largest funder of 122 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: al Shabab is the Minnesota taxpay Just what an incredible 123 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:54,440 Speaker 2: statement that in and of itself is. And I mentioned 124 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 2: this earlier, I'll mention it again. Now you just break 125 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,880 Speaker 2: it down. We had a what was the surplus? I 126 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 2: always get the number sixteen. Oh, it was about seventeen billion, 127 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 2: seventeen million dollars. Seventeen billion dollars surplus. That's money over 128 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: what the state was supposed to take from all of us. 129 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 2: Then we had the trifecta. Well, and with that surplus, 130 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,159 Speaker 2: we only got what two hundred and fifty two hundred 131 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 2: and sixty bucks back? 132 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:14,720 Speaker 5: Right? 133 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 1: Isn't that what the rebate was on? 134 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 7: That? 135 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 1: Was it less than that? 136 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 4: I did I did you guys get a check? I 137 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 4: didn't get a check. 138 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 1: Do we get money back on that? 139 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 5: Do we never get money back? I remember? 140 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 9: Really? 141 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 4: I think the proposal was two hundred and sixty bucks. 142 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to say that we get let's just 143 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 2: assume that we did. I don't even remember now with 144 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,600 Speaker 2: soul Paltry, so they don't give us the majority of 145 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: the money back, which should have happened. Walls. 146 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 1: It said that we were going to get thousands of 147 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: dollars back and he completely reneged on. 148 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:44,040 Speaker 2: That, so that money instead goes to help fund these 149 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 2: different various programs that have now all been found fraudulent 150 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 2: created by Democrats during the time of the trifecta, which 151 00:06:50,839 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 2: means that that money, now that they went asking for 152 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 2: your tax dollars has specifically gone to fund terror operations, 153 00:06:58,320 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 2: you know, by one of the worst terror groups on 154 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 2: the LED in al Shababa. I mean, this should be 155 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 2: headline news across the board and the majority of the 156 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 2: media outlets, apart from say you're off the news or 157 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 2: your American experiment. Nobody's at least the time when I 158 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 2: was doing my prep this morning, we're not running with this. 159 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:13,119 Speaker 1: We're not running with this story. 160 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 3: And the real tragedy of it when you look at 161 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:19,160 Speaker 3: what the role of blocking and tackling in government is is. 162 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 3: I've said it before on this show and I'll say 163 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:23,560 Speaker 3: it again. I have been on the bonding committee in 164 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 3: the Minnesota House and you see all of these water 165 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 3: systems that are failing. I have an issue in my 166 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 3: own district in the city of Wyoming where there is 167 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 3: a sewer line that's a faulty. And these are things 168 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 3: that the State of Minnesota should have money for, and 169 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,239 Speaker 3: instead what we did was we had all these well 170 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 3: to do programs administered by nonprofits with no accountability. So 171 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 3: the real tragedy in all of this beyond our money 172 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 3: going to terrorist groups, which I can't believe we're even 173 00:07:56,120 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 3: debating whether or not that is that's kosher. But the 174 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 3: real tragedy is that real things are happening in Minnesota 175 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 3: that would require funding and fixing, and those things are 176 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 3: not being paid attention to because we're too busy giving 177 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 3: two plus billion dollars away in fraud. 178 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 2: So here's what we're going to do.

I want to 181 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 2: make sure we stay on time today and I don't 182 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 2: get completely behind. I will say good morning to A. K. Kamara, 183 00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 2: who finally made it in I'm here traffic. I think 184 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 2: it's a conspiracy theory. I think the other cars were 185 00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,840 Speaker 2: listening to the show. I think they were all foes. 186 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: I think they saw you, they knew who you were, 187 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:33,079 Speaker 2: and they all slowed down in front of you to 188 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 2: keep you from arriving here. 189 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,080 Speaker 10: That's exactly what happened, because they knew that I'm with 190 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 10: on Time and they wanted to make me off time. 191 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 10: City Jersey had somebody who made that Oh I know, 192 00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 10: I heard and shout out.

They go on in this piece to say, 237 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 2: if you were to design a welfare program to facilitate fraud, 238 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 2: it would probably look a lot like Minnesota's Medicate House 239 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 2: Stabilization Services Program. The HSS program, the first of miss 240 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 2: kind of the country, was launched with a noble goal 241 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,480 Speaker 2: helped seniors, addicts, and disabled mentally ill secure housing. It 242 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 2: was designed with low barriers to entry minimal requirements for reimbursement.

The following years, the annual 247 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 2: costs has shot up forty two million, seventy four million, 248 00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: one hundred and four million. During the first six months 249 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty five, the payouts hold sixty one million. 250 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,959 Speaker 2: They then get into feeding our future, and we'll talk 251 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 2: a little bit about this before they end up diving 252 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: back into and we'll get into the story here what 253 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,319 Speaker 2: they've learned, and that is that money, through the fraud 254 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 2: taking place in the autism centers, is being funneled out 255 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 2: of the country.

I want to share this part. 483 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 2: Kaisha Megan, Somali American who'd worked as a fraud investigator 484 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 2: at the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, identified the problem last 485 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 2: year and we're well into the piece. They've gone through 486 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,960 Speaker 2: the fraud that we've covered on the show. They've talked 487 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,880 Speaker 2: about the former a state Attorney General Thompson, laying out 488 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 2: the fraud that had taken place that we've covered before, 489 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 2: so we're kind of we're getting into now the money 490 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:04,119 Speaker 2: being sent to terrorist groups overseas, wherein she says that 491 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 2: they identified the problem last year, saying we must grapple 492 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 2: with something that is uncomfortable and true. Nearly all the 493 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 2: defendants in the cases that I've listed are from my community, 494 00:23:16,520 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 2: the Somali community, because prior to this, in the article 495 00:23:19,080 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 2: they talked about feeding our future and the fraud that 496 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 2: took place there. So again this is a Somali American 497 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 2: fraud investigator saying, like as we've said, the defendants in 498 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:30,840 Speaker 2: these cases are from my community, the Samali community. Perhaps 499 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 2: the most surprising aspect of the Somalia fraud story is 500 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 2: the scale, with total costs running into the billions of 501 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 2: taxpayer dollars, it raises the question what happened to all 502 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 2: that money? The Somali fraud rings have sent huge sums 503 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,920 Speaker 2: of remittances or money transfers from Minnesota to Somalia. According 504 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 2: to reports, an estimated forty percent of households in Somalia 505 00:23:56,000 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 2: get remittances from abroad. In twenty twenty three alone, the 506 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 2: Somalia dysporia sent one point seven billion back, more than 507 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 2: the Somali government's budget for that year. And this is 508 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,400 Speaker 2: when they get into the portion of that I shared 509 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 2: a moment ago. The investigation reveals for the first time, 510 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 2: some of the money has been directed to even more 511 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 2: troubling destinations, the al Qaeda linked Islamic terror group Al 512 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 2: Shabad al Shabab. According to Glenn Kerns, a retired Seattle 513 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,320 Speaker 2: Police Department detective who spent fourteen years on the Federal 514 00:24:29,400 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 2: Joint Terrorism Task Force the JTTF, the Somalis ran a 515 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:37,760 Speaker 2: sophisticated money network spanning from Seattle to Minneapolis, and we're 516 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 2: routing significant amounts of cash on commercial flights from Seattle 517 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: Airport to the Huala networks and Somalia. 518 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: One of these networks, Kerns discovered. 519 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 2: Sent twenty million abroad in a single year, adding the 520 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:57,760 Speaker 2: amount of money was staggering. Kern's investigation eventually expanded to Minnesota, 521 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 2: where he realized the same thing was. He said, yeah, 522 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 2: I worked on it for five years. We had sources 523 00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 2: going to the Houalas to send money. I went down 524 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 2: to Minnesota, I pulled all the records and well blank 525 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:12,440 Speaker 2: words I can't. 526 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,040 Speaker 1: Say on the radio. 527 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 2: Oh, oh my gosh, all these Somalis sending money, sending 528 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 2: out money are on DHS benefits. 529 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 1: How does that make sense? 530 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,719 Speaker 2: We had good sources tell us this is welfare fraud. 531 00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 2: Kerrents determined primarily through human sources, that significant funds were 532 00:25:31,560 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 2: being sent from America to Al Schabab networks in Somalia. 533 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 2: Whether the money was intended for Al Shabab or not, 534 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 2: kerrent said they were getting a cut. A second former 535 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 2: official who worked on the Minneapolis JTTF confirms the story's 536 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 2: general structure. This former official, who requested to remain anonymous, 537 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 2: worked on two terrorism cases that intersected with Minnesota Somali 538 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 2: community and has studied the flow of funds from Minnesota 539 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 2: to Somalia. A third source, who spoke on a condition 540 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:05,919 Speaker 2: of anonymity, described the close ties between Somali American community 541 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 2: in Minnesota and Islamic terror groups abroad. Ten years ago, 542 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 2: the source was recruited as an independent contractor for a 543 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 2: three letter agency investigation into the Minnesota men who had 544 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 2: joined or attempted to join ISIS. 545 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: Which is why I. 546 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,160 Speaker 2: Want that I know when I'm going to my money 547 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 2: to go to them as fine as That's why I 548 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,840 Speaker 2: mentioned that year a Homeland Security Task Force report found 549 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,800 Speaker 2: that Minnesota led the nation. I'm going to back up 550 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 2: on that Homeland Security task Force expert found that Minnesota 551 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,639 Speaker 2: led the nation in the number of Americans who had 552 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 2: joined or attempted to join ISIS. Of the fifty eight 553 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 2: Americans who had done so, nearly half. 554 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 1: Came from Minnesota. One more part of this and. 555 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 2: Then we can talk a little bit more about it 556 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 2: and get to your talk back. Scott Johnson, who has 557 00:26:50,800 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 2: covered these and related stories for years for End of 558 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 2: the Show, attended several of those men's trials reporting on 559 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,360 Speaker 2: them for City Journal. He noted that the Minnesota men 560 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 2: gave the outward appearance of American assimilation, including being sophisticated 561 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: users of social welfare benefits. The relationship is ongoing in 562 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 2: this third rail conversation. The largest funder of Al Shabab 563 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 2: is the Minnesota taxpayer. The third source set there is 564 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,479 Speaker 2: an issue here that is real, and if there is 565 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 2: ever an event that is traceable back to these funds 566 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: or to people from this area, then this situation will. 567 00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:28,960 Speaker 1: Take on a whole new set of optics. This is 568 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 1: why believable. 569 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 2: This is why I started off this morning saying that 570 00:27:31,840 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 2: Governor Tim Wallas needs to resign. Do I have any 571 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 2: expectation that he's going to No, I don't, but I 572 00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 2: want a chorus of individuals calling for him to resign 573 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,879 Speaker 2: so that he has to go and address an answer 574 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 2: for this happening under his watch. And I'll just wrap 575 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 2: up with how they wrap the piece up. The first 576 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 2: step in solving the problem is acknowledging it by extension. 577 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 2: That means recognizing the problem's true source. So far, Minnesota's 578 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 2: government class and its media establishment. 579 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: Had failed to take that basic step. 580 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 2: Minnesotan's will have to confront the uncomfortable but unavoidable reality 581 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 2: members of the Somali community have played a central role 582 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 2: in the massive fraud that is now engulfing the North 583 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,360 Speaker 2: Star State. And again, this is the piece coming out 584 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,960 Speaker 2: of the City Journal, which is available on their website. 585 00:28:14,040 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 2: The largest funder of Al Shabab is the Minnesota taxpayer. 586 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think so. I actually have a video that 587 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:22,359 Speaker 5: is all cut up. 588 00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 10: I just have to go through and add in the 589 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:26,320 Speaker 10: kind of like the source that I do when I 590 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,159 Speaker 10: make my videos. And so I kind of did the 591 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 10: same thing when I broke this down, but then I 592 00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:34,359 Speaker 10: also tried to explain that, like, once we acknowledge all 593 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 10: this fraud has occurred, which I think the Minnesota you know, 594 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,120 Speaker 10: legacy media has been doing a pretty good job at acknowledging. 595 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: That the fraud are the fraud itself. 596 00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 10: Yeah, sure, but they're just never attaching it to the 597 00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 10: Walls administration and to current elected officials that are Democrats. 598 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,239 Speaker 10: And that's what you're attempting to do, John, and I 599 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:56,120 Speaker 10: agree that, like this has to be held accountable two 600 00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 10: people that are currently in power that set up these systems, 601 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 10: that are responsible for these systems, and there's just no 602 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 10: infens or butts about it. Like based off of just 603 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 10: the story, which we already knew, every single one of 604 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 10: these programs needs to be frozen right now, Yeah, because 605 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 10: we have to stop the flow of this money now. 606 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 10: In the story, obviously they don't necessarily mention the specifics 607 00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 10: of the HHS program shutting down and the autism program 608 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 10: shutting down, but it's like all of these programs, every 609 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 10: single program that allows for a private LLC to spring 610 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 10: up and then take government dollars, those programs need to 611 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 10: be put on pause and then they can go back 612 00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:36,320 Speaker 10: through and they can vet and say, like what are 613 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 10: you doing and do just a very light proof of 614 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 10: work that you're actually providing services, and it should immediately 615 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 10: stop right now. But I agree Tim Wallas needs to resign. 616 00:29:48,960 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 10: So does every Minnesota taxpayer get to claim a Ghati 617 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 10: terrorist as a dependent? 618 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 5: Now? 619 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 3: I should be able to That is a question, just 620 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 3: like a rank choice voting exercise.

The expectation isn't that 656 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 2: he will resign. The expectation and hope is that if 657 00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 2: enough people begin to say Walls needs to resign why 658 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 2: because of what we're talking about, because of what we're covering, 659 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,440 Speaker 2: then he'll have to answer for it. Because right now 660 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 2: the media is going to give him all the cover 661 00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 2: in the world over this, over this issue, and we 662 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 2: just kind of cannot let it happen. 663 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: And this is about next year's election. 664 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 2: I still believe there's a fifty to fifty chance that 665 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 2: he will not be the Democrat nominee. I just don't 666 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 2: know how much baggage he is going to be able 667 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 2: to handle at this point in time. 668 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 10: Now, maybe I'm going crazy, but have you guys noticed 669 00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 10: that Walls has been like weirdly quiet. So obviously that 670 00:32:04,920 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 10: he was well, but the Ice ray that happened right 671 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 10: in Saint Paul the next day, if you watch, I 672 00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 10: just wanted to see, like which crazy lefties came out 673 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 10: in support and you had your normal usual suspects, representatives 674 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 10: that came from Keith Ellison's office, the governor's office. 675 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 5: Had no one there to make any comments. 676 00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 10: Walls hasn't made any comments or about the Northfield man 677 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 10: illegal alien that Ice was able to snatch up. 678 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 5: So it's weird how quiet he's been. 679 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 10: He yesterday perked up out of nowhere to be like 680 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 10: see Donald Trump was calling for violence, but then he 681 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:42,719 Speaker 10: again ducked back down. And I think that that's what 682 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 10: a strategy like. He's not going to jump into the 683 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:49,480 Speaker 10: fray with these issues that could be perceived by independent 684 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 10: voters as like too radical, and it's it's to the 685 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 10: point that I'm starting to see DSA and dflers that 686 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,720 Speaker 10: are saying, like Tim Walls needs to actually resign because 687 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,719 Speaker 10: he's not jumping into the fray anymore. 688 00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 5: And it's very fascinating. 689 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 2: All right, let's go here, got a couple of items 690 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:08,120 Speaker 2: as we wrap up a Freedom Friday on a lighter note. 691 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:14,040 Speaker 2: Starting Thursday, so yesterday, wamo's fleet of self driving vehicles 692 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 2: will hit the streets of Minneapolis, aiming to gain experience 693 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 2: in the area.
