The DFL Debrief: A Minnesota Politics Podcast

This week, we take a look at the historic $6 billion funding proposal for E-12 schools proposed by Gov. Walz and Lt. Gov. Peggy Flannagan. The proposal also includes expanding the state's child and dependent care tax credit to help many Minnesotans with child-care costs.
We also discuss the GOP's dangerous rhetoric playing out in New Mexico, where a former republican legislative candidate was arrested for shooting at the houses of Democrats he blames for his election loss.

Recently, the DFL Debrief team sat down with the crew of the Brodkorb Report to discuss the two-year anniversary of the January 6th insurrection, Kevin McCarthy's bid for Speaker of the House, the DFL trifecta's legislative agenda, and so much more.
Michael Brodkorb is the former Deputy Chair of the Minnesota GOP and Becky Alery is their former Executive Director and it was great to hear their perspective on state and national politics. To hear more from them, be sure to check out the Brodkorb Report, which is available wherever you listen to the DFL Debrief!

This week, we sat down with independent journalist and Guy Who's Good at Twitter Aaron Rupar for a conversation about the Republican Party, the 2022 midterms, President Biden, and much more. Be sure to tune in!

This week, we discuss Republican Attorney General candidate Jim Schultz's anti-abortion extremism and the defamation lawsuit he threatened us. Help spread the word about Schultz by sharing realjimschultz.com with your friends, family, and neighbors.

We're almost there, folks. We're just a few weeks away before Kamala Harris and Tim Walz win the 2024 election. But it's not time to sit back, this is going to be a tight election. The gang makes their final appearance before election day and so obviously they had to spend much of the show discussing weird animal stuff. But also, they discuss the importance of remaining active until election day and not taking anything for granted.
See you on the other side!
