in north dakota we have 175 school districts in north dakota. a lot of parents have stepped up and ran for school boards. one of the great ways to make sure parents have a voice at the local school is not the federal government that is going to work with thousands of public school districts in this country, it is going to be with local control making it happen. the federal government is going to return the power to the state. the state has got to be strong enough to move it to the local school district. from the union standpoint, it is a problem. when i talk about ideology being tied into. it is not just school district. the water commission is in charge of a billion dollars. north dakota is the size. we have to be solving the problems for all of that and the chairman of the bank. it goes back to your question and biden in inflation in local control in unions is all tied into one thing. we have federal money. here's the stuff we have to get you that is going to help you build infrastructure. we get the bid back to finish a water plan that has fe

bureaucrats who probably never been to north dakota. and like iowa and i'm sure your situation multigenerational situation we are a younger state by about. 90% of the land and our state is owned by farmers and ranchers. all that's been in the family to start up. you got more than fifth-generation farmers and ranchers they care about the water. they care about the runoff. they care about the air they care about they want that farmer for the kids and grandkids in the next generations after that. the bureaucrats from washington come up have never been to our state and said this is all under federal jurisdiction. would have affected almost 90% of the state. we've got the northern all the ducks and geese up there. we have a piece of pond and sweat in the spring and by summer time they say that was -- but they're trying to argue that was a federally regulated water body. it's like a puddle as the dominant region and north dakota for delete regulated might be the mystery of the mississippi. okay i concede that but some years they farm right th

in north dakota we fight back.millions of dollars suing the federal government, we won on the waters of the usc -- usa. the federal government can't make laws just through administrative rules. they cannot tell states what to do. the 10th amendment is 28 words, it is one sentence and in their there is an important word that says delegated. the powers delegated to the federal government. delegated by who? delegated by the states, states like new hampshire. if it's not specifically delegated to the federal government is reserved exclusively for the states and importantly to the people. we need to make sure freedom and liberty is what our party needs to stand for. it's what we have to fight for in our country in the way you take care of a bloated federal government and everybody says it is bloated we will shrink it. there's never been someone running for president before who actually spent their entire business career, not just -- i'm talking my entire business career was related to software companies that helped take

it was very, very cold in north dakota that winter. it got below 60 degrees fahrenheit -- below zero before their last thermometer broke. people were getting frostbitten in places you do not want to be frostbitten and having a really hard time trying to keep away from the elements. but they did spend time forging things that they could exchange with the mandan for corn. the mandan corn was the whole food source for the winter. they would exchange these goods for the corn. they also joined the mandan in pursuing the lakotas, who raided the mandan village in a short foray in february, 1805. one of the mandan leaders they become close to is known as the big white coyote. sheheke-shote will be an important figure. on the return journey, he travels back with lewis and clark to meet with thomas jefferson. we have the documents and records of these interactions between sheheke-shote and the president. they are quite fascinating to study. then it takes them two or three years to try to get him home. i told you about the troubles they had getti

we know in 2020 he came to south dakota and held that rally in front of mount rushmore as south dakotae first states to open up during the coronavirus pandemic. since, you've had her floated as a potential 2024 contender. she's sort of taken herself out of the running saying i can't beat president trump. he's the very clear frontrunner. when asked whether she would consider being his running made, she says she would consider it. so very clear jockeying from the public sense as to how this is all working. it does appear this could be potentially a way for him to check the temperature on her in south dakota. >> sandra: i suppose people are wondering why else would he be headed to south dakota for a rally. >> exactly. the state only has three electoral votes. reliably republican. it has a june primary. may not play that big of a role in the republican primary. that is a -- why we all have our eyebrows raised and eared perked up. kristi noem is someone who has grown her public profile recently. she's vying for this more public role. >> sandra: a beautiful state. thanks for joining us. hurr

south dakota, not just native, to get an even fellowship to harvard. so those those i think happened simply because i grew. i changed my writing changed. i think my writing matured all of the years. and i was able to sit in my classmates at harvard and educate them they wanted to know a lot of the that were happening in indian country. they had no idea. but we had students from ghana, from ecuador were from nairobi. they were all so interested in native americans. it just amazed me that they had no idea, you know, or what an indian was, whether any of us still spoke our own tribal languages. so those experiences, i think me to reach this point in my life and know i'm still here, i'm still healthy, i'm still writing and i'm 85 years old. so i good about i contribute to native american journal

north dakota was leading the charge. won the battle to get the biden administration was ignoring the law. they were the first administration since truman that wasn't holding the quarterly required leigh sales, and we won that in federal court. voters we won that in federal court. we're fighting the biden administration on 20 fronts to say nobody's fighting the big fights. just look at the record of what we're doing right now. energy, economy, national security. i've been talking about it since day one. and now finally good. we're having the conversation about it. but we've got the answer in north dakota governor burgum. >> let's talk big government this this question for you. big government keeps getting bigger. one fifth of all new jobs this year are being created by government. governor burgum you say you want to shrink the size of government, but it has been a century since any president has done. >> why would you be any different? well, because we do. we do we've done it in north dakota. when i took office, we shrunk

north dakota and there was not a not easy thing to do this montana north dakota that's really really where it began and in a way it was almost impossible. break the code and make this produce second chemically at it took a lot of trial error. you mentioned earlier but once we did this was the finest high quality oil you're seeing in your life and it had a lot of the metal distillates that you need, particularly for kerosene diesel production and in fact, everywhere body will remember when got so high and it is like for $55 a gallon and anyway that brought on so much of this fuel with the metal distillers that diesel went to 2 to 25 a gallon so half and did it fairly quickly this round 2010 and well that was a huge change because everything up to point a lot of the product that was being refined was the heavy bitumen from canada all the refineries had been outfitted basically to deal with this endless supply of bitumen heavy oil from canada but it didn't have much middle distance. so it produced gasoline, but not the middle distance that you need for. and so that along with almost inn
