1 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: Our three Twin City's news talking I'm eleven thirty one 2 00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:14,800 Speaker 1: oh three five FM worldwide on the iHeartRadio app. Former 3 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:20,560 Speaker 1: NFL journalist, award winning sports broadcaster friend of the Show, 4 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:25,680 Speaker 1: Michelle Tafoya filed paperwork for Minnesota Senate race yesterday. She 5 00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: joins us on the show this morning. Good morning, Michelle Tafoya. 6 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:31,240 Speaker 1: Is there anything you'd like to go and tell the 7 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:33,160 Speaker 1: audience today? And thank you so much for coming on. 8 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 2: Well, not only did I file, John, but yes, I'm 9 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: announcing that I'm running for United States Senate. I'd love 10 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 2: to represent Minnesota and I can't wait for this run. 11 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 1: I'm always fascinated by individuals who, in my opinion, don't 12 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 1: need to go and run for office. And what I 13 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: mean is individuals that you know aren't previously serving or 14 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: seeking another position, but you know are successful in life, 15 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 1: but for whatever reason, feel a call to go and run. 16 00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 1: You certainly fall into that category for me, Michelle Tafoya. 17 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: So I'll just ask you the real basic question, especially 18 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 1: with everything that's going on right now, why did you 19 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: make this decision to run for Senate? 20 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, especially because everything that's going on right now, 21 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I think Minnesotans can see it, you can 22 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 2: feel it. Every day. We have a crisis of leadership 23 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 2: brought to us by career politicians, and they are not 24 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 2: solving the problems. They are not coming to clean up 25 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,640 Speaker 2: the mess, so others have to. And I felt compelled 26 00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 2: to raise my hand and jump in. I've lived in 27 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 2: Minnesota for over thirty years, have raised my kids here, 28 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 2: and I remember times where neighborhoods felt safe, and downtown 29 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: felt safe, and we had peaceful streets and clean cities 30 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,319 Speaker 2: and excellent public schools. And it just seems to me 31 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: that we have been in reverse. And you know, violent 32 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: crime is up, test scores are down. Our leaders quote 33 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 2: unquote allowed these fraudsters to steal billions and billions and 34 00:01:58,040 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 2: we don't even know what the number is. And that's 35 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 2: infuriate Minnesotans of the far left coming into town and 36 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 2: trying to turn this place into a war zone. So 37 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 2: you know, this isn't John like right versus left. This 38 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 2: is for me, right versus wrong, And we've. 39 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 3: Got to choose. 40 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,640 Speaker 2: We either got to choose the common sense approach that 41 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 2: built this country, or we're going to be left with 42 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: the corruption and the craziness that could tear us apart, 43 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,760 Speaker 2: and I think Minnesota is exhibit A. So we need outsiders, right, 44 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 2: We need an outsider with backbone who's going to take 45 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 2: on these politicians, tell the truth, fight for Minnesotans. And 46 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: that's what I intend to do in the Senate. 47 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:40,040 Speaker 1: It's pretty incredible thinking back to this. It has been 48 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 1: a while since you and I have had a chance 49 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: to talk, and again talking with Michelle Tafoya announcing her 50 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 1: run for Minnesota Senates, It's been a while since we've 51 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: had you on, but I remember the last time we 52 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 1: had you on talking about Minnesota controversies, and that certainly 53 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 1: pales in comparison to what we've been dealing with as 54 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: of late and now. As I mentioned earlier this morning, 55 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: and you can probably a test to this, Michelle, I 56 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: don't know if Minnesota has ever been in a national 57 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,000 Speaker 1: spotlight with as much attention not only in the media 58 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: but from the federal government itself that it is right now. 59 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: I'm curious to sort of get your thirty thousand foot 60 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,480 Speaker 1: view on the fact that you've got the majority of 61 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: the Trump administration in town this week. Between Pam BONDI, 62 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: you're expecting Christy Nome today, jd Vance tomorrow. All because 63 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: of these controversies. What are your thoughts about the way 64 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,919 Speaker 1: the federal government is handling Minnesota right now? 65 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 2: But look, it requires this. When you have failed leadership 66 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 2: at the top, people need to step in and say 67 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:42,120 Speaker 2: what is going on? And there's no question of the failure. 68 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the reason Tim Walls has stepped out 69 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 2: of his race. But just because Tim Walls is out 70 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 2: doesn't mean the fraud still isn't there, or that there 71 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 2: are others involved and that this needs to be investigated. 72 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: Every stone needs to returned. Minnesota's have been taken advantage of, 73 00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 2: Minnesota's have been stolen from and so so you know, 74 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: this requires a lot of eyeballs, apparently because we didn't 75 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:10,240 Speaker 2: do it ourselves. So I think this is It's curious, 76 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 2: isn't it. It's almost strange to have so much of 77 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 2: the national spotlight on Minnesota. I can't the last time 78 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:19,240 Speaker 2: I remember this much attention was the year that we 79 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,839 Speaker 2: had the Super Bowl and the Final four in the 80 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 2: World Series in the same year. But you know, that's 81 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 2: what it's going to require. So this is a massive 82 00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 2: failure of leadership from Tim Walls. All the way down, 83 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 2: so others must step in, and I want to join 84 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 2: that fight. 85 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on probably the biggest controversies that 86 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: we've been dealing with right now, and that is the 87 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: ICE enforcement efforts that have been taking place over the 88 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 1: course of really the last six weeks. I mean, there's 89 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 1: been ICE, you know, arrests that have been taking place 90 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,359 Speaker 1: going back into last year, but with this Operation Metro Surge, 91 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 1: it certainly has increased and it's caused an abundance of 92 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: controversy that shut us into the national spotlight. How do 93 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: you feel about ICE's efforts and what they've been doing 94 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: in the criticism that they've been receiving so far. 95 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 2: Well, listen, let's just step aside from politics for one 96 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 2: second and mention Renee Good and what happened to her 97 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 2: was absolutely awful, heartbreaking. My heart goes out to her family. 98 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 2: Something like that should never have happened. But now let's 99 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: stop and ask how did we arrive at this place 100 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: where some people feel it's their duty to not only harass, 101 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 2: but obstruct and even attack federal law enforcement. And the 102 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 2: truth is Tim Walls and his friends on the far 103 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:41,159 Speaker 2: left incited this and then fan the flames. They opened 104 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 2: the borders to millions of people, including violent criminals, including terrorists. 105 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: They call it racist and fascist to enforce the laws, 106 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 2: and now they treat Ice like some invading force, and 107 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 2: they're urging their followers to resist. So this is dangerous. 108 00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 2: The career politicians and the media I don't really care 109 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: about the average Minnesota. They care about picking a political showdown, 110 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 2: picking a fight with the Trump administration. So we need 111 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:11,720 Speaker 2: law and order in a civil society. We need better leadership, 112 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: and and that's what I'm running. Why I'm running. 113 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:16,120 Speaker 3: Is there any. 114 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: It's I've been saying on the show talking with Michelle 115 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:24,680 Speaker 1: Tafoya announcing her or her run for Senate, It's difficult, 116 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: as an understatement, to go and rationalize with Democrats right now. 117 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: It just doesn't seem like you can go and be 118 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,320 Speaker 1: reasonable with individuals on the left, and certainly when it 119 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,840 Speaker 1: comes to our elected officials and the continued straight up 120 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: lies and misinformation that they put forward on the on 121 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 1: the media. You know, we are a divided state in 122 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 1: terms of our politics. These concentrated blue areas in terms 123 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: of population with a lot of red surrounding it. 124 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 3: So your approach to this Senate run. 125 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: Is there a direct appeal to those on the left 126 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: in this in this race, how do you balance the 127 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 1: way the Democrats have been acting so irrationally as of late. 128 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 3: In launching the Senate campaign. 129 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: Listen, I want to talk to all Minnesotans of all 130 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 2: political stripes. I hope to have common sense discourse with 131 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 2: everyone across the state. That's the way to get this 132 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 2: done is by talking to everybody. Listen. I know not 133 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 2: everyone's going to want to listen, but I'm going to try. 134 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 2: I'm going to go everywhere, every corner of this state 135 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 2: and talk to Minnesotans, Republicans, Democrats, independents and calmly talk 136 00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 2: through the issues. That's the way to do this rather 137 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 2: than just ginning up, you know, inciting emotions. Let's have 138 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 2: conversations about how we can do better in all areas. 139 00:07:47,840 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 2: But that's what I'm going to do. I'm going to 140 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 2: go across the state. I'm going to reach out to 141 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 2: people of all political stripes and we'll see how we 142 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: get this done. And that's that's the only way we 143 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 2: are I'd love to change that. I'd love to change that, 144 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: but that is going to take time and effort and 145 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,400 Speaker 2: I have to go earn that, and I have to 146 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: go earn every bit of support that I'm going to garner. 147 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: Talking with Michelle Tafoya announcing her Minnesota a Senate run. 148 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:14,760 Speaker 1: Before I let you go, I'd like to kind of 149 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: get back to your decision to run. 150 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: I'm assuming you must have been mulling this for a while. 151 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: Was there anything specific that finally led to your decision 152 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: to Okay, I'm going to go ahead and make this happen. 153 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm curious as to the thought process and 154 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: going back to sort of how we started this conversation, 155 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 1: because I'm always fascinated by individuals who are in a 156 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: position where this isn't a necessity for you. You're doing 157 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: this because you definitely want to. You've been successful in 158 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,440 Speaker 1: your own right. Well, was there one thing that kind 159 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: of pushed you and said, all right, this is enough, 160 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 1: I need. 161 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:46,680 Speaker 3: To go and get into this race. 162 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 2: I think it was the perfect storm of a lot 163 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:52,439 Speaker 2: of things. You know, when I left my last NFL 164 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 2: game was the Super Bowl in twenty twenty two, where 165 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 2: the Rams beat the Bangles, and I walked off that 166 00:08:57,720 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 2: field and I knew that that part of my life 167 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 2: is over. And I chose that because for years and years, 168 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 2: I mean really for me, it started with nine to eleven. 169 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,920 Speaker 2: I had been watching and worrying about my country because 170 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 2: I love my country, and so this has been germinating 171 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: in my mind for a long long time. I've spent 172 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,600 Speaker 2: the last several years thinking about it, and it just 173 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 2: I think it just grew and built and when I 174 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 2: saw all of this fraud happening, and I've observed what's 175 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 2: happening again. We talked about school kids and the failing 176 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: test scores and less than fifty percent of our kids 177 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 2: can read and do math at great efficiency. That is 178 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 2: heartbreaking to me, and it's maddening. It angers me. How 179 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 2: have we failed so dramatically these kids. So all of 180 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 2: these things built up, and you know, I think with 181 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 2: this fraud and everything that's been going on in Minnesota 182 00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 2: and this divisiveness, I just thought I'm going to step in. 183 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 2: You're right, this is this is this is a mission 184 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 2: for me. So again and a confluence of events, but 185 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 2: finally just said, if not now, when. 186 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: And Michelle Tafoya, I would you mind taking a question? 187 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: We have a talk back that Roldan, would you mind 188 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: taking this question before I cut you loose this morning. 189 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 2: Sure, go ahead. 190 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 4: Good morning, John and Michelle.

One particular office that shared her story with me, 261 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 6: was stopped as she passed ice going down the roadway. 262 00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,320 Speaker 6: When they boxed her in, they demanded her paperwork, of 263 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 6: which she's a US citizen and clearly would not have 264 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 6: any paperwork. When she became concerned about the rhetoric and 265 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 6: the way she was being treated, she pulled out her 266 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:21,920 Speaker 6: phone in an attempt to record the incident. The phone 267 00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 6: was knocked out of her hands, prevented her from recording it. 268 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 6: The officer had their guns drawn during this interaction, and 269 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 6: after the officer became so concerned, they were forced to 270 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 6: identify themselves as a Brooklyn Park police officer in hopes 271 00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 6: of slowing the incident and de escalating the incident down. 272 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 3: Listen on a third blush hearing this, it's reckless. 273 00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 2: To me. 274 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 1: Because that situation there's a lot more details. 275 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 3: You know it and I know it. 276 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: There wasn't normal behavior from the off duty police officer 277 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 1: in what was described there. Let's get to your thoughts 278 00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: from the iHeartRadio app on Twin Cities News Talk, brought 279 00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: to you by Lyndall Realty. 280 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 3: Hey, good morning, John Paul from Brooklyn Park. 281 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 6: So the police chief of Brooklyn Park there did his 282 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 6: officers lose their IDs and badges? 283 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 3: You know, it's funny. 284 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 5: The media in this state is notorious for slanted news. 285 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:30,120 Speaker 5: What they omit the lack of context, the lack of 286 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:38,400 Speaker 5: follow up questions to generalities and innuendo. So they're just 287 00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 5: so horrible in this state. You can't trust anything. People 288 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 5: outside this state don't understand how the media in this 289 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 5: state is. 290 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: And the difference here too is so clear because I 291 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: saw online doing prep for today's show in the wake 292 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: of that press conference.

I don't know about you, 298 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 7: but I've been pulled over by the police before, and 299 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 7: every time I've produced a driver's license, So I have 300 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 7: to wonder the people had questioned here, where was their 301 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 7: driver's licenses? Why didn't they produce one? 302 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: Well, and then you have the issue of driver's licenses 303 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 1: for all, in which case perhaps you have ICE asking 304 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: for further clarification since if you're an illegal alien here 305 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: in the state, you can get a driver's license. 306 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 2: I also. 307 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 3: Port law enforcement. 308 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 5: But that press conference by that Brooklyn Park guy is 309 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 5: what we like to call b as in b S. 310 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 8: Have a good day, John, what's wrong with that story? 311 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:02,840 Speaker 8: I'm gonna knock your phone out. I want proof that 312 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 8: you're a citizen. You don't have it. But I identified 313 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 8: myself as a police officer. Then they immediately turned around 314 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 8: and left. Did she produce a shield? Did she produce anything? 315 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,360 Speaker 8: I thought you didn't have identification? Something's not right. 316 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 9: Good morning, John. 317 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:22,000 Speaker 10: Yeah. 318 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 9: I find it hard to believe all of these claims too, 319 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:29,160 Speaker 9: because of the fact that these people video everything and 320 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 9: there's no video proof of any of it. And for 321 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 9: a people who record literally every interaction with police right now, 322 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 9: you would think that there would be at least something one, 323 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 9: maybe two, but there's nothing, nope at all. So it's 324 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,400 Speaker 9: really hard to get behind these which would be an overstep, right, 325 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 9: but it's there's no proof. 326 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:56,399 Speaker 3: Supposedly, a police officer is asked for her papers and 327 00:17:56,520 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 3: the first thing she does is pull out her phone. Yeah, 328 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 3: that was my that was my thought this morning as well. John, 329 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 3: you nailed them.

I know you guys have a story 401 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 1: that's going up today. I'm appreciative of this because I 402 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: mentioned this autism center called Awesome a U s O 403 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: me that caught my eye as well. But was this 404 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: a revisit that you and Liz Colin there at Alpha 405 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 1: News Jenna Globe had done with this autism provider. Can 406 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: you share with us some details of the story that 407 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,920 Speaker 1: should be going up soon at alphanews dot org. 408 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 11: Yeah, it wasn't a revisit. So we received a no 409 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 11: trespass letter order from Awesome saying that we are not 410 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 11: allowed to go back to this to this clinic for 411 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 11: any reason. So this was Awesome Development Centers in DNA. 412 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 11: This is where Liz and I visited. They have collected 413 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 11: at least two point five million in taxpayer dollars. We 414 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 11: were tipped off about this place because the person who 415 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 11: works in the building where their house says they've never 416 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 11: seen a single child there, So we actually went in 417 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 11: and visited, did not see any children. Right when we 418 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 11: walked in there there were three adults in sort of 419 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 11: the lobby area that were immediately combative with us and 420 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,640 Speaker 11: told us we needed to leave. And as we were 421 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 11: walking back to our vehicle, we had a luxury sedan 422 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 11: following us I think it was a BMW following us, 423 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 11: and then they called put the police on us. And 424 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 11: basically this letter is stating that we are not allowed 425 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 11: to go back on the premises. 426 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:19,680 Speaker 3: Were the police, I mean, are they able to enforce that? 427 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 1: What was the rationale for not allowing you there just 428 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: because you weren't you weren't patrons. 429 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 3: What was the reason that they gave? Do you can 430 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 3: you share that? 431 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 11: They didn't give a reason. They said that we were 432 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 11: harassing them. We walked in and we just asked questions 433 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 11: about their daycare, you know, if you know how to enroll, 434 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 11: do they have any pamphlets, that type of thing, And 435 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,199 Speaker 11: immediately they kicked us out. They just didn't want us 436 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 11: there asking questions, and so we I called Edyna police. 437 00:23:49,240 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 11: I spoke to a very nice officer there who said 438 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,639 Speaker 11: they actually never received this No trespass order because in 439 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 11: the letter we received they said police got a copy. 440 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 11: They never got a copy, but they said just stay away, 441 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,080 Speaker 11: and we are going to stay away. But you know, 442 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 11: we are writing a story about it because when we 443 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 11: went back and looked at the website, we notice a 444 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 11: lot of very noticeable differences. For example, they're using what 445 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 11: appears to be stock photos on their website that shows 446 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 11: much more i don't know, nicer accommodations compared to what 447 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 11: the building actually was. There's misspellings, you know, of course 448 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:36,919 Speaker 11: along the lines of the quality Leering Center. You know, 449 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 11: some words are misspelled on the website. So it just 450 00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:43,160 Speaker 11: it just is kind of what more of the same. 451 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:48,120 Speaker 11: It appears. These types of places say they're one thing, 452 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 11: but then when you really look at it, it appears 453 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 11: to be something else, and they don't want you anywhere around. 454 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: Well that's a part of this, you know, we we 455 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:01,160 Speaker 1: talk about these issues and we get into the things 456 00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: that you mentioned, you know, a moment ago. You have 457 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: details in the story, you know, the breaking down from 458 00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: twenty four too to this year, the amount of money 459 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:14,000 Speaker 1: that they that they've received, and the pushback that you're getting. 460 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: But you just drop back to the basics of these 461 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,959 Speaker 1: autism centers. One the lack of children, but two the 462 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,800 Speaker 1: space they're operating in, the lack of playground equipment and 463 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: open space that I believe is required of most of 464 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 1: these places, especially relating to todaycare. You know, it's important 465 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: we focus on the potential of fraud taking place here 466 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: and you know, billing for services that aren't being rendered. 467 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:40,600 Speaker 1: But really when you drop back and look at just 468 00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: their ability to operate even legitimately is in question before 469 00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,200 Speaker 1: you even get to the fraud aspect of it. 470 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,880 Speaker 3: Talking with Jenna Globe from Alpha News, Oh. 471 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 11: Absolutely, And you know when the story is going to publish, 472 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 11: I think in the next few hours. Here I encourage 473 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 11: everyone to take a look at these photos. I mean, 474 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 11: this autism development center that is supposed to have all 475 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 11: these children received millions of dollars. It's like in a 476 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 11: two level office, like a business industrial complex type of place, 477 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 11: no playground in sight. I don't know. 478 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 2: It's again, this. 479 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 11: Is the same type of place that we saw in 480 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 11: a lot of Nick Shirley's videos. I suppose maybe the 481 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 11: least you know isn't very much every month. I have 482 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 11: no idea why they choose these places when it's so 483 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 11: obviously not the same place in the photos. 484 00:26:35,920 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 2: We'll talk and they have on their website. 485 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 1: We'll talk Nick Shirley here in just a moment again, 486 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: talking with a Genna Globe from Alpha News. You know 487 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,080 Speaker 1: what I would be carrying yourself, And I don't know 488 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,760 Speaker 1: if I don't know if anybody's keeping track of this. 489 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: Quite honestly, I don't know how you would unless you 490 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,920 Speaker 1: were really kind of on top of it. But I'd 491 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: be very interested to know if in the wake of 492 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 1: all of this exposure of the fraud, whether it's the 493 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:01,160 Speaker 1: daycare centers or the autism centers as we've been talking about, 494 00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: or even the transportation services that was the focus of 495 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 1: Nick Shirley's latest video, I would be curious if any 496 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: of these different services have closed down. I'd be wondering 497 00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 1: if any of these locations before they even get investigative, 498 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 1: have just gone and closed their doors in the wake 499 00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 1: of being investigated.

Governor 571 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: Tim Walls, the mayor the Saint Paul Interney, General Keith Ellison, 572 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: the mayors for both Saint Paul and Minneapolis. We want 573 00:31:32,520 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 1: to see accountability and it's the only way we can 574 00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: push back on Democrats at this point in time. Homeland 575 00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: Security Secretary of Christy Noome on News Nation last night 576 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,640 Speaker 1: said within hours that was last night. Today there will 577 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 1: be arrests. 578 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 3: This is what you said. 579 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,120 Speaker 1: Regarding what's a place at the church on Sunday.

To 583 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: answer your question, I don't know. Chad will have to 584 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: see what shakes out. Bill Glahn writes, this fraud never sleeps. 585 00:32:05,920 --> 00:32:09,360 Speaker 1: Recent events of push Minnesota in the fraud story out 586 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 1: of the national headlines. But the work goes on and 587 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: as I mentioned that's not a bad thing. A pause 588 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 1: in talking about the fraud extensively provides a really good 589 00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: opportunity when the results of investigations come in and the 590 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:24,200 Speaker 1: ICE operations wind down, for fraud to become the number 591 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 1: one story again. Without it, it could end up being 592 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: white noise. The next big event will be today again, 593 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: happening ten minutes from now, the US House of Representatives 594 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 1: Judiciary Committee Subcommittee as well on Crime and Federal Government Surveillance, 595 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: will hold a hearing on when public funds are abused, 596 00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 1: addressing fraud and the theft of taxpayer dollars. All three 597 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,960 Speaker 1: scheduled witnesses have Minnesota connections. Nick Suirley is the star 598 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:55,239 Speaker 1: witness in this hearing that will take place today. One 599 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 1: of the items they'll be looking at is apparently Minnesota 600 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:04,560 Speaker 1: Department of Human Services DHS gave some seven hundred and 601 00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: twenty four million dollars to an NGO that's being hidden 602 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 1: from public view, protected as doing that thing with my 603 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:19,080 Speaker 1: fingers masked to protect not public data. My understanding is 604 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: all of this data needs to be public, should be 605 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: public by law. So how is seven hundred and twenty 606 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,560 Speaker 1: four million dollars going to an NNGO and nobody can 607 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 1: be made aware of who is getting the money. That's 608 00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 1: just one of several things that will be addressed in 609 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,800 Speaker 1: this fraud hearing today. I don't put a lot of 610 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: stock in these hearings. I've talked about it before. Typically 611 00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:42,920 Speaker 1: the ears are used by left and right to just 612 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:47,600 Speaker 1: get soundbites. Hopefully we get some good nuggets of information 613 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: that lead to accountability moving forward. Katie Pavlich has a 614 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,960 Speaker 1: brand new primetime show on News Nation Friend of the Show. 615 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: In launching that, she sat down with President Donald Trump, 616 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 1: who was still now talking with the World Economic Forum. 617 00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 3: Just wrapped up his speech. Looks like they're doing a 618 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:05,560 Speaker 3: Q and A. 619 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:09,439 Speaker 1: Here is a portion of that interview that Katie did 620 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 1: with the President, and she asked Trump specifically about the 621 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: Insurrection Act and whether he will use it here in Minnesota. 622 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 3: The Insteraction Act would allow you. 623 00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 9: It requires essentially that if federal law cannot be enforced, 624 00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:23,800 Speaker 9: you can invoke it and it would allow. 625 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 2: It to be at forced. 626 00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:26,400 Speaker 9: So where are you with that threat and do you 627 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 9: still think it's necessary. 628 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 13: I don't think it is yet. It might be at 629 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:33,239 Speaker 13: some point. It is actually very common, you know, with 630 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:35,919 Speaker 13: me they'll make it like a big deal. But it's 631 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,959 Speaker 13: been used by over forty percent of the presidents during 632 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,479 Speaker 13: their term. It's something I would have no problem doing 633 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 13: if I think we needed it. We have great people 634 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,319 Speaker 13: at ICE, they're strong people, they're smart people, and I 635 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:51,239 Speaker 13: don't think it's necessary yet, but you know, I see 636 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 13: they're building up like, oh if he ever did that. 637 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 13: Over forty percent of the president's used that. Some presidents 638 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:01,279 Speaker 13: use it actually many times, and it does make life 639 00:35:01,320 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 13: a lot easier. You don't go through the court system, 640 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 13: and you know, it's just a much easier thing to do. 641 00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 13: But I don't think we need it at this point, 642 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,719 Speaker 13: and hopefully we won't need it, but I would. I 643 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,680 Speaker 13: would not have any problem with invoking it if we 644 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 13: needed it. 645 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:18,879 Speaker 3: And again, individual's hesitation with that. 646 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 1: It just comes from the fact that we haven't seen 647 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:27,120 Speaker 1: it happen, probably within our lifetimes, but there is historical 648 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 1: and legal precedent to go and invoke the Insurrection Act. 649 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 1: Right now, things have calmed down, mostly because it's cold outside, 650 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 1: but you and I both know that that can change 651 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,239 Speaker 1: in an instant, especially if these arrests end up taking place. 652 00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: As Christy Nome said, I want to wrap on a 653 00:35:42,120 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 1: couple of clips here. I think I can squeak them in. 654 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 1: Border Patrol Commander Greg Bovino earlier this week talking about 655 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,360 Speaker 1: what the ICE agents have been facing on the streets. 656 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 3: Arcists, and I'm calling them anarchists. 657 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:58,040 Speaker 10: Now, these anarchists, these rioters, these bad people that wish 658 00:35:58,120 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 10: to harm law enforcement are now harming American citizens.
