www.commsolutionsmn.com - It's been another year, and boy, has it been a strange one. A president dropped out of the presidential race, replaced by someone that never one a single vote from Democratic delegates and alternates. Then the former president becomes the president-elect, not done since Grover Cleveland. Unfortunately, the DFL trifecta that has ruined Minnesota for the last two years has...

www.commsolutionsmn.com - The pardon is one of the most sweeping and king-like powers that our presidents posess. He just pardoned his son, Hunter, for not just crimes that he's been convicted of, but any crimes that they discover in the future over an eleven-year time period. Is that even legal? Unfortunately, it looks that way. The evidence is there from the laptop and corroborrating evidence th...

www.commsolutionsmn.com - We haven't talked about an old friend of the show for a long time, but recent events necessitate the walk down memory lane. We have a long history with one, John Budziszewski (aka Johnny B). We've been immersed in the world of politics for a long time, so we know the laws pretty well. Because he recently crossed the line in professional decorum with us, we put out an inde...

www.commsolutionsmn.com - Well, the election is over and Democrats are freaking out. They don't seem to have any answers as to why they lost the election. Some of the top Dems are already starting to jockey for position. Gavin Newsome, Tim Walz, and Kamala Harris are already being floated for 2028. The Republicans have the trifecta of the House, Senate, and White House. Will they stay together thr...

www.commsolutionsmn.com - Well, it happened! The greatest political comeback in history is complete. It was still way too close. President Trump dominated the Electoral College, but those swing states were way too close. Despite that, 90% of all counties got redder. Florida, Texas, and Ohio were all double digit victories. The hard work begins now as President Trump begins to put his team together...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- We've been in the political consulting business for a long time... and we've got a pretty good record, if we say so ourselves. We know that this is a very exciting and close race for president this year, but please, please, please don't forget about local races. Before you go to vote early, please do your research in order to elect the right people into school boards, city...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- VP Kamala Harris recently sat down with 60 Minutes. That used to be a huge interview to get... now it's met with a collective "meh". Kamala didn't say anything worth repeating. In fact, CBS was caught red-handed swapping out at least one answer that she bombed for another one. The media is in the bag for Harris, and it's more apparent than ever. All these people that stood...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- We lost a great one this week when Pete Rose (83) passed away. He was banished from baseball for life because he bet on games. What happens now that he's gone? There's a lot of sports legends that were terrible people. Is there really any reason to keep Rose out? The concensus is that JD Vance gave MN Gov Tim Walz a trouncing. We review the debate and give you our analysis...

www.commsolutionsmn.com - The Kamala Harris campaign is confusing. Despite the lack of interviews, the information we are hearing is vague... almost like they are trying to hide what she stands for. The strange appearances by Governor Tim Walz aren't helping either. Conversely, President Trump doesn't let an opportunity to speak to the public go to waste. The media is getting restless at Harris' a...

www.commsolutionsmn.com - We just had what looks to be the one and only presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. All of the press claimed victory for the Vice President, but is that really the truth? They went toe to toe on the economy, Afghanistan, January 6th, crime, immigration, and more. Despite the initial reaction from the media, voters didn't quite agree. The former presi...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- We're on the eve of the first (and maybe only) presidential debate. We set it up and give you our predictions, not only on the outcome, but on the press, the process, and what must happen. Nations around the world wink at having a freedom of speech, but in America, we are the only nation that has it enshrined in our constitution. Unfortunately, we are seeing it eroding in...

www.commsolutionsmn.com-  The last two election cycles have shown that the polls are consistently wrong. President Trump consistently outperforms the polls, and we believe that this year is no different. We discuss results from the past couple of presidential cycles and what we see happening in the culture with President Trump picking up a lot of non-traditional supporters. The sampling seems to b...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- Things have been blowing by at breakneck speed. Huge news stories, that would normally last weeks in the media, now are here and gone in days. We take a moment to call out Comcast and professional sports over their latest scam to bilk more money from the fans. At some point, the average fan will be completely priced out and they don't care. Why is no one talking about the...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- Sometimes the news moves faster than we can keep up with. In the time between we cut this, edited it, and posted it, both Lou Dobbs passed away (RIP) and Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race. Despite that, this is still a hard-hitting, explosive podcast. We all watched in horror as a 20-year old Thomas Crooks tried to change the trajectory of the nation as he tri...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- We recently witnessed the first (and possibly last) presidential debate of the 2024 election season. It was a massacre. President Biden not only did worse than anyone expected, President Trump handled Biden and the moderators almost perfectly. Biden stumbled, mumbled, and stared blankly, and with an open mouth, into space. He misquoted numbers. He said he beat Medicare. He...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- The first presidential debate is drawing nigh. It's looking like President Biden may end up being the nominee, but what about vice president? Kamala Harris remains unpopular and doesn't seem to help Joe Biden's struggling poll numbers at all. Amy Klobuchar alway outperforms in Minnesota. Why? Why do more Minnesotans vote for her? Why can't Republicans lay a glove on her? S...

www.commsolutionsmn.com-   What is going on with the Biden campaign? They scheduled their convention so late, that if anything unforseen happens, there will be no Democratic candidate on the ballot in Ohio. Will President Biden make it to the general election? Will Kamala Harris? This campaign is losing and losing bad. Obama can't see all of his work undone for a second time, especially with Presi...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- Gavin Newsome promised to end homelessness in California. Now it's at all-time high. We don't see the problem getting better, but exponentially worse. He's giving them free drugs, Election polls keep rolling in, and President Trump keeps widening his lead in the swing states. In fact, he is starting to go after Biden in states like Minnesota, New York, and New Jersey. That...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- When times get tough, people depend on entertainment to take them away. Today, entertainment is rotten through and through. How are they making us forget our problems, when they are championing our problems? They can't create art that brings people together because they are too busy separating us. The problem is that we have a two-tiered system, and you're either in or you...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- It's been a while, thanks to a technical meltdown at Comm Solutions HQ. We will not be kept down! We've got a couple of back episodes to release, but we're storming forward. In this episode, we discuss the passing of Senator Joe Lieberman, and his mark on the future of the Democratic Party. They have drifted so far since the days when senators like Mr Lieberman were welcom...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- The State of the Union address was uneventful, so maybe that was a win for President Biden, although his angry demeanor and use of the weord "illegal" kept him from getting a bump in the polls. This guy is in trouble and Democrats are starting to get nervous. Unfortunately, the Republicans weren't able to capitalize on the response either. That makes us nervous. The electi...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- Super Tuesday proved a couple things, one that noone in the Republican Party is going to stop President Trump, and two... there's a pretty big contingent of the Democrat electorate that is voting "no preference" or "noncommitted" over President Biden. That's troublesome. Those folks may vote Biden in the end, but if they don't, it could potentially solidify some of the swi...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- Now that the 2024 presidential race is set between Trump v Biden, what is the Democrats play? It looks like Trump is ahead in all of the important places for now. What does that mean for the Dems in the House and the Senate? Will Biden even make it to the general election? Is Harris the heir apparent? Is it time for them to look to 2026 legislative elections, and just skip...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- Another state primary down, and another state primary solidly in the "W"column for President Trump. Nevertheless, Nikky Haley is staying in the race with no path to the nomination. It's certainly her right to do so, but at what point is she helping Joe Biden and the Democrats? We declare the inauigural "Conspiracy Week", where we discuss our favorites from JFK, to AI, and...

www.commsolutionsmn.com- The Robert Hur report came out, not clearing President Biden of wrongdoing, but rather claiming that he is incompetant to stand trial, so no charges . So if he's too bad off to stand trial, how is he well enough to be the president of the United States? Which is it? Are you comfortable with that? ...or are they trying to expose him to get rid of him? We discuss, but would...
