Minnesota has its own AOC wannabe...

Check out the American Experiment Podcast

Welcome back! This week on the American Experiment Podcast…

Bill Walsh takes the reins while Grace and Kathryn are off on special assignment, with Isaac making an appearance on the producer cam.

The episode kicks off with a bill passed in the Minnesota Senate that would spend $40 million on rent assistance. The catch? Illegal immigrants would also be eligible for the program.

Then Bill breaks down Minnesota’s very own AOC wannabe, Erin Maye Quade, from the heated rhetoric to the Trump hatred, and the DFL’s broader strategy to shift attention away from their failures in Minnesota and toward Donald Trump heading into 2026.

Next, a new DFL representative says she wants to “raise revenue” to fund the things “we all deem worthy” which, of course, means raising your taxes to pay for things like $40 million in rent assistance for illegal immigrants.

On the back half of the episode, Grace and Kathryn sit down with Senator Andrew Mathews to discuss our latest energy campaign: “Nuke the Mandate, Free the Nukes!”

We unmask where all the fraud in Minnesota started...

Check out the American Experiment Podcast

Welcome back! This week on the American Experiment Podcast…

This week, Kathryn and Bill kick things off with the DFL’s new proposal to tax ICE agents who worked in Minnesota. One Republican asked whether that tax would also apply to paid protesters, something the DFL didn’t seem to appreciate, despite their well-known love of higher taxes.

Next, after years of Governor Walz taking advantage of earmarks that sent hundreds of millions of dollars to friendly nonprofits, he now says he wants to end the practice. A good decision, or a day late and a couple hundred million short?

Thanks to this system, billions have been lost to fraud in Minnesota over the years. We open up the vault to show you the exact moment it all began.

Then, Bill and Kathryn break down some of the craziness at the Capitol—including a DFL representative suggesting we should study the benefits of shoplifting.

On the back half of the episode, Grace joins Bill and Kathryn to break down the brand-new results from the latest Thinking Minnesota Poll, including what Minnesotans really think about Operation Metro Surge.

The Feds HALT Minnesota's medicaid payments until it can get its fraud problem figured out....

Check out the American Experiment Podcast!

Welcome back! This week on the American Experiment Podcast…

Our hosts dig into why the Trump administration is halting $260 million in Medicaid payments to Minnesota. Is it really about stopping fraud, or just “political retribution,” as Gov. Walz claims?

Later, they examine another unintended consequence of Minnesota’s fraud fallout: a state budget forecast that (at least at first glance) gives us a surplus, not a deficit. Finally, they question the governor’s latest “gun control” plan. (Why is it based on yet another tax? And shouldn’t we start by actually enforcing the firearm laws we already have?)

On the back half, they sit down with Hillsdale College professor David Azerrad for a wide-ranging conversation on the state of modern conservatism, what it means to be a true “American,” and why it’s our country’s spirit, not its dream, that makes us great.
