In this episode of the American Experiment Podcast, Grace and Kathryn hit pause on Minneapolis’ own version of Mamdani. That’s right, socialism didn’t stop at NYC’s city limits; it made its way to Minneapolis too…

They also dive into Minneapolis’ latest study on how to tax the rich, plus the city’s wild idea of launching government-owned grocery stores…right here in Minnesota.

And finally, Governor Walz racks up a $430,000 taxpayer-funded tab to prep for Congress… and the line items will blow your mind. Kathryn brings the receipts, including $1,710 for “reading conservative groups’ statements.” (Shoutout to any Walz lawyers getting paid to watch this episode!)

In the latest episode of the American Experiment Podcast, Grace, Kathryn, and Bill sit down to STOP THE TAPE on the special session at the Minnesota Capitol!

As Democrats wept over not being able to give illegal immigrants free, unlimited healthcare on the taxpayers’ tab, one DFL Rep went so far as to claim SHE was “in this country illegally.” Spoiler alert: that wasn’t even true.

Later, Senator Erin Maye Quade compares her fight with the GOP to her grandfather’s service in World War II—saying her voting record is her “Purple Heart.”

Then, education policy fellow Catrin Wigfall sits down with Mark Kolbinger, mayor of Becker, MN, to talk about the teachers’ union’s death grip on education in Minnesota.
