In this jam-packed Wednesday edition of What's On Your Mind, hosts Scott Hannon and Kevin Flynn break down a series of explosive updates from across the region and the nation. The episode kicks off with breaking medical news that contradicts the official narrative surrounding the recent ICE shooting in Minneapolis, followed by a humorous yet critical look at Mayor Jacob Frey’s latest media appearances.
The conversation shifts to North Dakota, where the state is offering a massive $1,600 property tax credit to primary homeowners—but you have to opt-in before the deadline. We also hear from Senator John Hoeven on the escalating assassination threats from Iran and the $1.5 trillion military budget proposal. Finally, the "Money Man" Brian Krank joins the studio to recap a historic 2025 for investors and explain why the Dow is knocking on the door of 50,000.
