Mike Lindell: Minnesotans Are Waking Up To Rampant Political Corruption
STEVE BANNON (HOST): Mike Lindell, please explain. We’ve got a minute here. I’m going to hold you. Please explain, what is a vouching system? What in the hell is going on in Minnesota?
MIKE LINDELL: Yeah. Well, they were cheating in Minnesota before cheating was popular, everybody. We have early voting, and what it is, it’s a vouching system. You can bring up to eight people. Yep, they’re a resident. Yep, they’re a resident. I don’t know them, but I believe they’re a resident.
It’s disgusting, Steve. Up to eight people. Remember Governor Walz? He said he brought everybody in, all the illegals, said they could all have driver’s licenses, which means they could also vote.
By the way, you didn’t even need that before. They don’t even want to look at your license. They just say this vouching system. And who says they’ve only vouched for eight? It’s disgusting.
This goes back to Al Franken. This has been in Minnesota. When I started investigating the corruption, corruption, corruption. And when we come back from the break, I’ll tell you about the Somalians. But they didn’t 2020.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): Let me just reiterate. We’ve been talking about this a long time, the situation in Persia. These guys don’t know what they’re doing. They’re going to run it into the ground. They have run it into the ground. It’s a great and ancient civilization. Great and ancient civilization pre Islam.
Although it was always an enemy of the West, the Romans and the Greeks, it will collapse. It will collapse. What you don’t need, and this is why I was so adamant with Tucker and others about this phony intelligence that got us over the top of bombing these people and trying to do a decapitation. If you do a decapitation, naturally 50% of the country at least, or more, is going to come to the defense. They’re nationalists. They’re going to come to the defense of the mullahs because they’re going to say, hey, you’re attacking our country.
Let it collapse. Keep your sanctions on. And like I say once again, cut off the oil. Don’t let them monetize the oil to the Chinese Communist Party, who are one of their partners. The strategic relationship between the Persians, particularly the Persian military, and the Chinese Communist Party goes back many, many decades. And it’s quite deep. That was their foothold to get into the Middle East.
All those people who said Qatar and Beijing were the biggest hammers on Beijing, they got in Qatar. But the deep and direct relationship was coming through the Persians and then to other Gulf emirates, maybe even, dare I say it, the Saudis cutting a long term deal with the CCP, the UAE trying to cut a long term deal with the CCP. Our allies, quote unquote.
So the last thing you need to do is get involved here. Just let nature take its course. It will collapse.
I think we’ve got enough problems right now. We’ve got to be thinking about restoring the sovereignty of the United States of America. What you’re seeing in Minneapolis is out of control. It’s all throughout the country. What you’re seeing in New York, New York’s only going to get worse.
And look, OMB and Treasury are all over these things. They say the DOGE guys, all the tech bros, DOGE did not find one penny of this, not one penny. I know that from senior officials in the Treasury Department and OMB, which have adults running them. We have to be serious about this now. Playtime is over.
So Mike Lindell, this has been known for a while, right, about the voting system?
MIKE LINDELL: Absolutely.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): Do the people of Minnesota agree with it?
MIKE LINDELL: Well, no.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): Let me be blunt. I know you’re running. It’s great and you’re a leader. But the people of Minnesota, this is on them. They’ve got to step up. Not just MAGA. The farm labor party and all these people. If you believe this is a democracy, this is a racket. They need to step up.
You’ve got Walz, that liver lipped Walz, blown around. Ellison is corrupt up to his neck. I understand they’re surging task forces in there of prosecutors and FBI and others. President Trump and the team are going to do what they can do. But this goes back to the people in Minnesota.
Just walk me through the system today. You can have these Somalians walk in and vouch for people. They’ve got all these phony driver’s licenses that the Minnesota assembly has approved. This is back on the people in Minnesota, right?
MIKE LINDELL: Right. This is a disaster and it’s embarrassing. And it’s on the politicians, the Republicans too, and on our media in Minnesota.
In Minnesota, you could vote 45 days early. Back in 2020, James O’Keefe from Project Veritas came, and him and I exposed all the Somali ballot harvesting. We had videos of it all. We turned it into the administration. We were trying to sound the alarm.
The media here, the Star Tribune and others, suppressed it. It’s not just fake media. It’s media that refuses to talk about these things. That’s why I ran for governor. Nothing gets done. Same old, same old.
They were bringing up Somalian fraud all the way back in 2000. Nothing’s been done. Right now, I’m in governor debates almost every day this month. I’m meeting with farmers, grain and beef farmers, finding out why they haven’t been involved. Minnesota is waking up.
Our corrupt elections and corrupt politicians led us here. You need different input to get a different output. This is one of the biggest blessings this country’s ever seen. As this opens up, we can’t let them cover it up or shut it down, or we lose our country. This is a takeover, Steve.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): I know. But here’s the problem. You’ve got these phony Republicans. Lisa Demuth and Tom Emmer. They talk a big game. Emmer started the Somalia caucus in the House. Now he’s pretending to be Elliot Ness.
This isn’t just progressive Democrats. This is the whole system. That’s my point. This is back on the citizens of Minnesota.
MIKE LINDELL: I think it’s all going to be revealed. Some may not have known what they were stepping into years ago. But last January and February, local news broke the daycare fraud story. Walz did nothing. The Republicans should have been shouting from the rooftops.
It shouldn’t take an independent reporter to make this go viral. People ask what I know about politics. I’ve been immersed in this for five years. I don’t want to be a politician. I want to be a leader.
We’re five years ahead on election fraud. This can be solved fast. People need to go to prison. Waltz is fundraising right now saying Mike Lindell is going to put him in prison. That tells you everything.
Would I prosecute as governor? Absolutely. Keith Ellison looked the other way on all of this. Prosecute, prosecute, prosecute. Transparency every day. Prison, deportation, accountability.
You can check out my solutions at Mikelindellgov.com. We need help right now ahead of the February 3 straw poll. This is national. Every dollar helps save Minnesota and this country.
