Minnesota madness — the national implications | WHOLE HOG POLITICS

News

What's going on in Minnesota? A slow-burning scandal around allegations of abuses of welfare programs has rocked Governor Tim Walz. The controversy has blown up online, where conservative social media commentors raced to the state to expose empty day care centers. After years of fraud were uncovered, Walz stunned Minnesotans by dropping out of the gubernatorial race. This week, a ICE involved shooting caught national attention. An officer shot and killed a woman who was attempting to monitor the agents' movements. The initial response from Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and the White House reacted with little sympathy, showing full support for the officer involved. The Hill's Chris Stirewalt and Bill Sammon discuss how these controversies will impact both parties during the midterms and what's next for politics in Minnesota.
