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.

Governor Walz purposes a $10 million handout right on the heals of MASSIVE state fraud...

Check out more of the American Experiment Podcast

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.
