    Bottom Of The Curve

    www.commsolutionsmn.com- It's been a month of rioting, and the Marxists couldn't be happier, at least until Tom Homan arrived on the scene. The word is out. There are sophisticated networks of anarchists, connected by Signal chats that are tracking ICE movements across the city. Will Walz and Frey avoid jail time by cooperating or will they continue to shoot themselves in the foot by blustering and whipping people into a frenzy? We know that Rep. Brad Tabke is involved in coordinating these agitators. Where are the arrests? Michelle Tafoya threw her hat in the ring for US senator from MN to replace Tina Smith (thank goodness). She's a big name and we'll have to find out more about where she stands in the coming weeks. We welcome our friend, John Augustine, of the Legislative Evaluation Assembly of Minnesota to the show. They have just completed their annial 2025 Legislative Review of both legislators and legislation passed. Nine MN Senators were honored for their high legislative scores. The last session was off to a dubious start, when the Democrats refused to show up to work after one of their candidates cheated by not living in his district, holding the entire legislature hostage. They also skipped the swearing in ceremony and illegally had a secret ceremony to swear themselves in. Of course the Republicans allowed them to get away with it so that it is now precedent. The Republicans walked away with a couple of wins. They were able to pass a bill that blocked illegal aliens from getting free health care through MinnesotaCare. They were also able to establish a fraud committee to look into the beginnings of the fraud discovery, before Nick Shirley made MN front and center in national news. MN used to do a budget one year and bonding the next. In true MN form, they can never get enough of our money and have begun to do bonding bills every year, even when planning the budget. There were a number of other bills that are varying degrees of not so great to horrible, including the worker's comp bill that removed important safeguards against fraud. Not really what we need right now. LEA's annual awards banquet is coming up on February 26th.  Please go to lea-mn.org for how to get your tickets now!

    Why We Can't Have Nice Things

    www.commsolutionsmn.com- There is so much going on in the world right now. We're watching a possible regime change happen in Iran, unless the mullahs' massacre of protestors causes them to back down. The United States military waltzed into Venezuela to arrest the drug-running, pretend president, Nicholas Maduro, that lost the election and refused to give up power. President Trump has been making moves to reduce the increasing influence of China in our hemisphere, and seems to be three steps ahead of everyone else as he frees Venezuela to make its own decisions and lines up strategic defense through a deal in Greenland. Might the future of America still be saved? Minneapolis is on fire again. Did we learn our lessons to handle it better this time? Of course not! The left distorts and omits facts to present a one-sided story. The press is painting a story that ICE came out of nowhere to kidnap every migrant they can find, going into businesses, schools, and churches. None of that is true. Because of the billions of dollars of fraud in the Somali daycare center scheme, the federal government increased their numbers to investigate, and the same dregs of the city attacked law enforcement, causing the unfortunate death of Renee Good. This caused Antifa members to crawl out from every dark corner of the nation to whip people into a frenzy, attacking federal police and storming into a church to violate the FACE act. Not surprisingly, the Democratic Socialists, Revolutionary Communists, the unions, and the D(ictator) F(raud) L(awlessness) Party keep pressing forward, even in the face of contradictory evidence. They keep trying to protect the murderers, child rapists, and drug traffickers. Why? We're tired of seeing our state in the news. Can we take MN back and return to normal already?

    Bad Decisions

    www.commsolutionsmn.com- So, what does President Trump have to do to win the Nobel Peace Prize. The guy has a hand in ending most of the world's major conflicts: Pakistan and India, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda, Armenia and Azerbaijan... and the recent ceasefire achieved between Israel and the Palestinians. It's so blatant, that the winner of the award gave a head nod to President Trump. Don't worry, the system isn't rigged. A lot of this has been due to President Trump's ability to strike deals to give America a leg up in the Artificial Intelligence race. Big corporations have joined with the government to squeeze all of us that aren't at the top. There's some odd year elections happening this year and we're not happy about it. The turnout always stinks and a small group of activists can always win the day. There's two governor's races on the ballot. Jack Citerelli is within striking distance against Sherill, who is a damaged candidate. Winsome Sears should beat Abigail Spannberger, who has been caught up in the whole Jay Jones controversy, but that ain't looking too good either. Mamdani seems to have a lock on the New York mayor's race, and that's not good for the economic capital of the United States. He's illegally taken overseas money for his campaign and is a loud and proud Democratic Socialist which has a very radical agenda. He wants to reduce the police force, freeze rent, and have free public transportation and grocery stores. He's a disaster within moments of holding control of America's largest city. In Minneapolis, Omar Fateh is trying to become "Little Mamdani" as it's mayor. He's also with the DSA and holds the same views. This will give the Minneapolis City Council carte blanche to pass most any radical policy it wants to. If Minneapolis goes communist, the repercussions will reverberate throughout the suburbs as well. The time to prepare is now, because there's a pretty good chance he wins, as Omar Fateh has rigged the Ranked Choice voting system with lesser candidates to block Mayor Frey from getting votes. We really need to dump RCV. The moral of the story is that we need to get rid of RCV and odd year elections. In the meantime, you'd better run to the hills.

    Government Ruins Everything

    www.commsolutionsmn.com- We've been doing this for a long time. I know that the words "conspiracy theory" has been getting thrown around a lot... but some of them are actual conspiracies. If the government is capable of using false pretenses to get us into war (i.e. Gulf of Tonkin), then what won't they do? We see that the Deep State has done all sorts of things that we are only finding out about. We still don't know anything about what happened in Butler, PA. People want to downplay the workings of the Deep State in our government, but look at how all of these players that were in The Center for the American Experiment got into George W Bush's administration and had a response ready to go when 9/11 happened. Our State Department moved into the coup business and Obama's administration helped to orchestrate overthrows in Ukraine, the Arab Spring, Benghazi... it needs to change. The government has also put their influence onto business and education. The college loan business has manipulated the system to make college available to almost everyone... then taught them a bunch of useless information, so long as they can get their hands on all of this money. Then they got in with manufacturing, meat production, and all sorts of other businesses, sending American companies overseas for cheap labor or modifying their output to meet government demand, raking in the government subsidies. They have got involved in the medical industry, deincentivising innovation, and manipulating health insurance. This has caused certain sicknesses to be treated instead of cured and brought on a mentality of whether to treat patients or manage their decline. We have to get government completely out of everything.

    What Is Our Government Doing?

    www.commsolutionsmn.com- With so many things going up in flames (figuratively and literally) these days, we start the show with some ideas to torch the sport of baseball's customs. We need to ease into the bad news today. In a case of the shifting political landscape in America, Vivek Ramaswami won an endorsement from the Teamster's Union in his bid to become Ohio's governor. Who's next... Pennsylvania? Things aren't looking good for the Dems in the near future and we're too happy to lay it out for you. Kamala Harris' new book is proof positive, as she single-handedly tears down most every Democrat that wants to run for something in the next 3 years. As we predicted months ago, Tim Walz has announced that he is running for a third term as governor of Minnesota. Can he really win? He is wildly unpopular in outstate Minnesota. National trends are toward the Republicans as we watch the unraveling of our society. The streets are less safe. There are billions of dollars of fraud being uncovered under the watch of the Walz administration. We went from a huge surplus to a huge deficit. As predicted, Ranked Choice Voting is ruining our electoral system. The Democratic Socialist candidate in Minneapolis is running a mayoral slate to take second and third votes away from the current mayor. We've got a government shutdown, but for how long. The Dems refuse to negotiate unless health insurance for illegals is included. The Republicans are winning the PR battle for now... but we'll see what happens. Things are looking good for the Republicans in the midterms. We'll see if that makes any difference. Lastly, we're in a war over speech. Even some "conservatives" have begun to talk about hate speech. We can never go down that road. Speech has to remain free... likewise, if you're Jimmy Kimmel, you're not being censored. You're just being fake news.

    Remember The Fallen

    www.commsolutionsmn.com- As we record this on September 11th, we recall the events of 9/11/2001. It's still fresh in our memories, despite that it's fading from the consciousness of too many. How do we keep this from happening again if we forget? Our conversation takes a turn towards the unfortunate news from September 10th, 2025. We lost a brother in Charlie Kirk at the hands of another leftist with an agenda. We take time to remember Charlie and his impact on our nation. Charlie went to college campuses to challenge liberal indoctrination, because someone had to do it. He changed the thought process of so many young men that felt like they were the villain in woke world. They were tired of it and Charlie gave them a way out. He was up front about his faith, his beliefs, and what was important in life. Now, in the wake of his death, thousands are returning to church and promising to stand and carry Charlie's vision. People on the left are celebrating and justifying his death. It's abhorrent. These wokesters are dangerous and something has to change fast. We need to stand against the darkness that seems to be enveloping us and be a source of light in our world. Let us join together to rekindle faith, stare evil in the face, and take back our culture.

    Episode 344- Democratic Descent

    www.commsolutionsmn.com-  Late night tv used to be a staple for people from across America. There were moments that we all saw and talked about the next day. Today, no one watches any of it. It's become one-sided, hateful, partisan, and just bad. It looks like there is no saving it either. People aren't watching network tv, let alone late night. Here we are down the road from a crazy man shooting up a Minneapolis Catholic church/school, killing 2 kids. There are things we know because of the YouTube videos from the murderer. The left is in this insane state, where it victimizes the suspects, almost heroizing them. Psychotropic drugs are destroying minds and personalities while we keep pushing for more. Someone is clearly on the wrong side. Why is this even contested? We're used to watching the Republicans turn gold into lead, but the Democrats have found themselves in the peculiar position of being incredibly awful. Whether they are cozying up to socialists, lionizing criminals, protecting the COVID vaccine, or defending the policies that most people hate, they are standing for every lousy and destructive thing they can conjure up. The party is hemorrhaging voters and can't raise money. Blue collar unions are courting Republicans as Dems support industry killing policies. Blue states also face losing electoral votes, as red states look to gain them. We can't get ahead of ourselves, but things are about to get interesting.

    Big Beautiful Mixed Bag

    www.commsolutionsmn.com- Our former president, Joe Biden, has had more and more questions rising to the surface about his use of the autopen during his term. He supposedly authorized hundreds of pardons, but they were all signed with the autopen. Did President Biden even authorize these pardons? We may never know. Congress is trying to gather more information about his medical state and his Doctor stonewalled the committee. We can't get any answers on anything. This is what leads to conspiracy theories. We can see that nothing is adding up and everyone acts as though we're the crazy ones. Enough already. The Big Beautiful Bill has finally passed. There were plenty of necessary things that had to get done. The Trump tax cuts were made permanent. The border got some much-needed help to become even more solid, despite already record low immigration numbers. They passed the no tax on tips, overtime, social security, and car loans. The bill does not sunset the provisions of the Green New Deal fast enough. It raises the debt ceiling and proposes new spending without cuts to offset it. The DOGE cuts were close on the heels, but thankfully have passed in the wake of the BBB. The Genius Act is also right on the heels of the BBB, creating a stable coin (a crypto currency that is linked to our dollar). We have to make sure that the Fed isn't able to program the currency to manage the economy and our ability to buy and sell.
