In this episode, Lara Trump sits down with John Hinderaker of Power Line Blog for an in-depth look at the Minnesota Somali fraud scandal. John explains why the fraud has been widely known in Minnesota for years, how state officials ignored it, and why he believes the real numbers could reach into the billions. The discussion explores how political leaders, including Tim Walz, relied on the Somali community as a reliable voting bloc despite the corruption. Later, Lara is joined by Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna to discuss her push to ban members of Congress from trading stocks, the resistance she’s facing from both parties, and was even told that the effort could hurt Republicans in the midterms, and why the United States is still funding the Taliban and what can be done to stop it.
