It is a chilly Monday morning, and the weather is acting more like March than mid-May. In this high-energy episode, the morning crew breaks down everything from local weather blunders to deep-seated political conspiracies. The team dives into explosive claims surrounding the 2020 election investigations with former federal prosecutor Todd Blanche and looks at the petulant “sit-in” tactics of St. Paul politicians over gun control.
Things heat up when the iconic Senator John Kennedy completely unloads on the political landscape, dropping instant-classic vocabulary like “woke-topus” and explaining why some politicians have “billy goat brains.” Plus, we look at a staggering $1.4 billion healthcare fraud crackdown with Dr. Oz and Laura Trump, chat with Bridget Riddle about global agriculture and the sudden nutrient-frenzy surrounding whey powder, and debate the magical properties of North Dakota’s finest pickle-flavored beers.
