Welcome back! This week on the American Experiment Podcast… 

Grace and Kathryn dig into Governor Walz’s $10 million “relief package” proposal to bail out businesses negatively impacted by the ICE surge. How can we trust this administration to hand out more money without losing it to fraud? Speaking of which, the Department of Human Services (a.k.a. fraud central) put out a fraud fact-checking website that strangely lacks any facts of its own...and be sure to check out www.MNFraudFiles.com!

Later, Bill Walsh gives a preview of Minnesota’s 2026 legislative session, which starts TODAY. Will the DFL pass an “assault weapons” ban? Why are Republicans pushing for “conformity” with the feds? And should the state try to avoid a bonding bill? 

Lastly, Grace and Kathryn get Rachel Paulose’s thoughts on the ICE force reduction, turmoil in the Minnesota U.S. Attorney’s office, protecting fraud whistleblowers, and even the release of the Epstein files.
