Punchbowl Town Square

But the color of my skin is not what qualifies me to be your governor. Jocelyn Benson's lost like six lawsuits. Now this is I think number seven, where she has lost because she was saying, delete these after seven days, Tony, what is the story? Well, you know, this happened back in 2020. Surprise. Surprise. And you know, and you know, federal law and it's been practiced just, you know, retain your records for 22 months. And she just decided, you know, you know, after seven days, delete these E poll books because we don't want to mix it up or anything. Instead of saying, listen, retain it on a stick, delete your E poll book, but retain the information. No, just wipe everything clean. We don't need any information. We don't need any tracking. We'll keep it for you at the state. Jocelyn Benson's lost like six. We asked Minnesota to revalidate all of the high risk providers here in Minnesota. 14 categories, 30%, almost one in three of all the people providing services in Minnesota could not be revalidated. I'll say that again, one in three people, roughly who are providing services, were not allowed to provide services. That degree of fraud, again, you have to purposely being a burden your glance to allow that to happen. That is similar to what we're seeing in places like New York around social adult daycare. And here in Minnesota, 50% of people in social adult daycare were not allowed to provide that service. I have to ask the bigger question, should we be using federal tax dollars to pay people to play majong and card games as they hang out in clubhouses for crooks? We asked Minnesota, this is the messiest political story. If we've seen in a while, Mike has the Misha Gander on the panel. Somebody who was born and raised there, what's going on here? Well nothing like an 11th hour Shakespearean train wreck. The Elsiad campaign wants to talk about Donald Trump. That's the main spring of the election. And Michigan is a state where he's particularly unpopular. But now the Democrats decided in the Democratic way that we, on the Republican side, enjoyed for many years to go from the party of Jefferson and Jackson to Hatfield and McCoy. Haley Stevens, who nearly lost the primary, decides to come back about 10 days ago and start throwing elbows about allegedly, I'll say, not condemning the added up. And the truth is, I think they both screwed up here. Elsiad has missed opportunities to slap this stuff down. It is an anti-Semitic, it's terrible. It's an outside group butting in trying to raise money for themselves. But you there runs this who is the host of the young Berks who is also the uncle of the son, Piper. Right. And it's like a hijacking. But I think the campaign consultant criticism, I have a Belsiad, you don't try to bunch a single on something like this. You tell him to pull the damn ad in his crap and you denounce it. Instead, and he did this with Piper too, we kind of gave him a kitten swipe away, not a push. And now the door is open. And for whatever reason, the primary opponent who must be very bitter has decided to throw a crowbar in the last 48 hours of race. Now, that said in a wave election, I think he still wins. And Michigan only about half the boat has passed on election day. So, a lot of it's already baked. But it's not how Elsiad was. And that primary opponent, Haley Stevens, also her fiancee making news recently saying he's been a Republican for mic Rogers. And speaking of mic Rogers, who is the Republican, he put out a statement tonight, which sounded like an endorsement of Haley Stevens. Let's put this up on the screen. Representative Haley Stevens is a courageous leader who deserves the respect of every Michigan voter. She has conducted herself with nothing but class, she's a Democratic primary, a primary where a majority of voters did not vote for her party's nomination. She was absolutely right to call Nadu Elsiad to announce the rebellion back at. And she was right to call on him to apologize for espousing the same hateful ideology. Hey, Michigan, as you may have seen, our Democratic nominee for US Senate Abdul said that I was no longer welcome in his campaign, and that I should stay away. And he's right. And that's why I am endorsing mic Rogers for the United States Senate. Today, I don't belong in a bull's campaign. I do not stand with Hassan Piker who gets trafficked on our college campuses. A dear friend of mine earlier today was saying that education is on the ballot. And she's absolutely right. And what our students see, what our children see, and who we are as Michiganers is not hate, and is not what we are getting out from our Democratic nominee right now. So I am just one person. I love this state. As some of you know, I want to campaign saying that it was a love letter to Michigan. And I'm here to declare who we are as Michiganers. This is Bill Hart's seat for the US Senate. This is the conscience of the Senate right now. And our Michigan moment. And I'm just letting you know where I am. I'm still a very proud Democrat. I still very much believe in everything I voted for and said and I've worked really hard. And we'll continue to do so in all the ways. Life's opportunities afford that's feed and love you all so much. You're a Democrat. So why is a Democrat? So why is an L. C.I.E. getting your vote? Because I am using just basic common sense, Laura. Thank you for having me. It is so important that people just realize that it comes a time that you have to say, I just need the one thing. The one thing that's going to make me vote for someone. And that one thing that makes me vote for my grandmas and my husband is health insurance. You're a Democrat. Good morning. Morning Monday. I'm so glad it's going to be Tuesday. Good morning. Good morning. Who would have thought that the weekend before the election, your state would be the entire fire bishop? Oh, it's just my timeline. That was everything on my timeline. I just kept popping up. Ailey Stevens, she's the one that we talked about being all crazy on her campaign stage and on her campaign. Well, I guess I'll say, right? So that's her. Remember last week, I called out her fiancee and I said, oh, her fiancee is no longer her fiancee. That's the ex fiancee that she comes out full blown against. I'll say, it's like, wow, this is fantastic. And then I got Jocelyn Benson, dirt coming out on her big time. It's just insane. Insane. And then you guys seen the amount of people that are holding Trump to the front. And then you guys saw the fire for the 5,000 and the previous 2,000. Have you seen that? I can't believe what? I don't get it. I don't get it. If you're, you know, he's trying to do it the right way. He did it the legal way and people are holding to the fire because of 2,000 in the past and 5,000 now. So it's, this is interesting. I have a, I'm pretty positive. No positive that tomorrow is going to be a fantastic day of winning, especially. Oh my God. They don't see when, so when, um, Gretchen Webmire came in and like within the first week of her being an office, she's like, she's going to put a gas tax on us. And then they all voted against it. And then somehow she backed or 20 more cents. I don't understand. I guess I do understand. Just do what you do what they want. Prop 1 is a constitutional goes back to the people type vote. My neighbor, one of the neighbors down the road, like don't vote prop 1, vote prop 2. I'm like vote for both of them. What are you talking about? It's disgusting. It's disgusting. Who, who, there's something I play. There's something I play at, I've lost a thought. But there was somebody I was like, you know what they are, DSA. The lunacy and thought processes. I know who it was. Patty. We will never understand him. Don't, don't say you agree with what he says. Don't ever say you agree. That's because it's lunacy. Just using us for something to talk about. There. Far too go with that. But I bought so much candy. And before I swear there's about 30 to 35 kids. And what the hell happened? I got all this candy and 10 kids. I was like, that's not enough. I just reached in the big stop pot. Just grab a human man hand where the candy just thawed in their bags. I was so mad. Usually the street was full of kids. And I got so much chocolate. So much candy floating in the house now. Quiet Halloween for me. So what's you test? I mean, yeah, I mean, it was quiet. I mean, to grandkids, they're thing. But yeah, I didn't see as many people out as you normally see. The photos kind of weird. Was it all the tailgating trick or treaters, probably? I don't know. I had not seen a lot of that here on the West Coast. I even know that a couple of the adult parties that I went to the crowds were not usually are. In fact, I was kind of shocked because a party I went to on Saturday, which is normally like, there's people waiting to get in. I don't think they were more than about 60% full. I think people are just tired. And Halloween's become so expensive. It's kind of ridiculous. It's not the fun. It's a bit of a dream. Well, we're going to have a mile winner because usually it's Halloween is that day where we'll have freezing rain, setting water. Every time we went out, trick or treating it with my youngest, it was just like the most mis-role event. And then it was like fantastic. It was cloudy and gray, but it wasn't three layers of clothes and that that like you have to open up your coat and like, oh, you're, you're woody. I saw kids sweating. Literally sweating. Like it's 59 degrees. What do you got on that you're sweating? Some exercise. I got it. Good morning. Good morning. To me, the weird thing for me, yes, the Sunday, Saturday because of the days are mixed up now that we've fallen back, which I hate. And my dog has not figured it out. Is early voting closed at three and trick or treating started at five. But they wanted, I saw people in line in these costumes to go vote, to go to Halloween parties. I'm like, this is crazy. There's a vampire in line to vote. But my favorite was raggedy and with a cigarette hanging out of her mouth. There was a lot of clips. I didn't, I couldn't, I probably could just end sound portion of it. You know, the sound clip, the context of it. There was people on Ann Arbor, on street, Ann Arbor, you know, asking about who you voted for. And I was pleasantly surprised. And Ann Arbor is a tree hug and washed it to not, washed in all county. That's one of the, me personally, a problem county. But Ann Arbor, that's not, well, that's not close to the Lansing, is it? No, no, no, that's closer to Wayne, Wayne County. It's a view of him, University of Michigan. Well, then you got all those liberal net jobs. By the way, did you happen to see the liberal net job who went after older millennial and who happens to be on TikTok? Hey, did you take an exception on how strong that little thing was? All I have to say is, she did a one-arb bush up with the biggest cop on her. And she's like, and she, and somebody, Eric Daughtery, who I cannot kind of stand him, really. I mean, he's, he puts out breaking everything, but he's like, she was man-held. I'm like, she assaulted that girl. What are you talking about? She needs to be man-handled. You pushed that little girl right off her feet. Both feet were in the air from that. To be honest with you, though, if you were not expecting to be pushed like that, you would be pushed off your feet, Roop, to be honest. I'm not saying that she-
