the minnesota miracle refers to the early 1970's that minnesota made a decision we were not capitalizing on human capital and the idea that we were pretty kidding funding for schools based on property tax and creating haves and have-nots and made a big move, it was bipartisan, the state invested, it was about 70-30 and turned that on its head. lo and behold you see better production in the economy take off. per capita, home to more fortune 500 companies than anywhere in the country. this time we said the minnesota miracle was that time, this is not gonna be a miracle, it takes hard work. we ranked the top and so many categories, we looked at the data we were lng black folks and indigenous folks behind and we said this time it will mean everybody is included. child tax credit, making sure we already the lowest child poverty in the country, investing in health care and some of those things. that's where it came from. the belief on this is nobody wants to move incrementally right now. we have a one-vote senate majority and the republicans accused me of never listing them, a one-vote majorit

the minnesota miracle refers to the early 1970's under governor wendel anderson that minnesota made a decision. reword a call and agrarian state, beautiful, had all of us, but we had a lot of assets we were not capitalizing on. the biggest one is the human capital, and we made the idea that we were predicated our funding for our schools based on property taxes, creating the haves and have-nots, and they made a big, bold move -- bipartisan, hard to believe. they made a move where the state invested. turned it on its head. lo and behold when you invest in schools and get kids out there, you see better production and you have the economy take off. per capita wise, we are home to more fortune 500 company than any other place in the country. what we did this time, we said, look, the minnesota miracle was that time. this time, we are saying it's not going to be a miracle. it takes hard work. what the world saw in minnesota -- we rank at the top in so many categories until you desegregate the data and we were leaving black folks and indigenous folks behind, so we came back at it, and said th

minnesota. he told me he thought this was a brilliant pick. even though minnesota has been a blue state for a long time, they work at it each and every year. he said it's not easy, but we know how to win. we knock on doors, bring people together. he said tim walz being at the top of the ticket has been instrumental in keeping the midwestern states blue. the other thing to note is keith ellison told me that tim walz's background is connected to the civil rights leaders and said in the george floyd case, if not for walz there would be no prosecution. he said his decision to take it into the attorney general's hand ensured justice for the george floyd family. and it showed that he personally care good that family. he talked about the fact that tim waz has universal lunch for the state, he has great relationships with people on the ground from a number of different coalitions. he told me -- his words, this is not just some old white guy, this, is again, keith ellison saying, this saying in fact he's

this is in greater minnesota.s is similar to a lot of the terrain you see in wisconsin, michigan, pennsylvania. walz lost this by 23 points. how does that compare to joe biden in 2020? joe biden lost the same county by 23 points. how does that compare to hillary clinton in 2016? she lost by 28 points. now here's the key. this county democrats used to be much more competitive in. in 2012, barack obama won 43% of the vote in this county. it was 10 points he lost to romney by here. the floor fell out for democrats here when trump came along in 2016. and they haven't recovered it since. that walz performance here, that's a little less than biden's number, it's more than clinton's and a far cry from what obama was doing here. i'm showing you one. this is a stand in for dozens of counies in minnesota where you saw the same thing. with large rural populations, blue-collar white populations, where obama, some of winning, this is where democrats have lost ground. and walz in 2022, he didn't gain any ground that the democra

his wife's from minnesota and he's represented the state of minnesota. and also i've been governor. uh, we need a midwest center uh in the white house. uh certainly, uh the president of camel harris. if she does get elected president, she's from san francisco. uh no, that's fine. um. but we also need a midwesterner. uh, close to uh, the positions of power the united states and vice president is very, very good. that's going to field of midwesterners. welcome phil, left that particular with a democratic party which has a lot of strength in east coast and west coast, but not so much in the midwest. outside of the very large, tim was he was governor in 2020, with the george floyd writes the place republicans. they've accused him of waiting too long to call the national guard to protect public buildings and businesses. they are also putting him in, in the progressive lift category of those who want to define police departments. you put your posted something on x that caught my attention. i'm gonna pull that up for our viewers to see you posted. no, tim was is not anti police. only an id

minnesota attorney general keith ellison. courting history, if the democratic wins in november, not only could we get the first woman president, the nation could also get its first female native american governor she is minnesota lieutenant governor peggy flanagan and she will joining me live. >>> running scared, is donald trump okay? he seems off his game, doubling down on kamala harris' intelligence and her name, why that is a sure sign her crowds and the polls have him rattled. i'm jonathan capehart and this is the saturday show. >>> tonight, vice president kamala harris and her running mate, minnesota governor tim walz, are wrapping up a blockbuster swing state tour. in about an hour, they are expected to touch down in las vegas, nevada, where the vice president will make her case to another group of otto graham voters. last night, harris stomped in arizona to a crowd of more than 15,000 people, her largest to date, according to the campaign. she made it clear that we are all in this together. >> generations of americans

minnesota is a pretty blue state. governor walz governed in a progressive direction during his eight years in office. you will hear a lot about crime and immigration. >> bill: let me interject. try to answer the question you just posed. why do it then? if it's considered the outset to be so progressive? >> well this is a choice of style over substance. you look at governor walz's record and it is pretty progressive. i imagine republicans will be honing in on his record of the riots in the twin cities after the george floyd murder. there will be a lot of criticism that republicans and democrats offer his way during that moment. that will come up in a lot. but he comes across as bret was saying as someone comfortable speaking to all types of groups. a working-class guy. he speaks in a folksy manner. they think it will play well in some of the midwestern states not just pennsylvania but michigan and certainly wisconsin that are big political battlegrounds. >> bill: walz represented congressional district one. a huge rura

she might have had a chance in minnesota may be, but probably not.esota because she felt he was loyal.th it'sey been reported on cnn tod. i thought they said trump had a> loyalty test and they didn't like that. >> i thought it was interesting where he said i will havemp president harris' back ifar elected but what is he comparing that to?nder is he comparing that to kamala harris with joe biden? i didn't understand whatak that meant at all. it didn't make sense but did kamala harris stab joe biden and the back and managed to get th i nomination through using thereg entire party powerful apparatus aned money bagman to take the nomination away from him and wgive it to her? is that what he was saying? i don't know when it was reallys weird. i think it is interesting they have to go to minnesota. >> laura: really quickly, thek call back we are not going back and i think he talked to moste americans, certainco age, they would say, gosh, i wish we could go back to the '80s where iwhen wish we could go back to even five years ago when interest rates were lo

again, that's true across minnesota.ss those three battleground states and what you see with walz is when walz won in 2022, the coalition he put together to win the state of minnesota, it looks just like what's become the standard, post obama coalition. just run up the score in the metro areas. really take a drubing in the rest of the state there. and in minnesota, which has a higher college educated white population than those three other states, that can add up to a victory, but again, where democrats need the help in the other states is not this kind of area where they need the help is in this kind of an area. >> steve kornacki, thank you so much. okay, stewart, chief strategist. when you look at what we just heard from steve and also i'm thinking about what david plouffe just told me. i asked him if they were thinking about expanding the map and he said the seven battleground states are the seven we've been focusing on. those are the ones harris and walz are going to starting today. when you look at that map, what st

minnesota governor tim walz joinsic

minnesota. so, to those who know him best, to those who know him best, tim is more than just a governor. to his wife, gwen, he is a husband. to his kids he is a dad. to his fellow veterans, he is sergeant major walz. to the people of southern minnesota for 12 years he was congressman. to his former high school students, he was mr. walz. and, to his former high school football players, he was coach. coach. and in 91 days the nation will know coach walz by another name, vice president of the united states. >> so, america, for some folks there just getting to know coach walz' story. is the proud product of a rural class family in rural nebraska. a veteran who served our nation in uniform for more than two decades as a member of the army national guard, and he went to college on the g.i. bill. he is someone who long before he entered politics worked as a teacher. when coach walz and his wife moved from his native nebraska to minnesota nearly 30 years ago, they both took jobs at the local high school

all based in minnesota.e expanded child tax credit expired on a federal level, he passed it on a state level. we have all seen the videos this week. him surrounded by kids. he did it in minnesota, free breakfast and free lunch. his platform is about dignity. that aligns with what kamala harris is trying to say. that everyone should live their lives socially free, financially secure, and physically safe. they are completely aligned and he has done it in minnesota. >> minnesota has triple a bond rating. one of the top ten states in the country for business. they are rated the best state in the country for health care. he calls the state the best state in the country to raise kids. and that's his guarding star as governor. when they ask your opinion about him, are you able to look at his record and about what is happened as the state, as a two term governor and told the business community they have something that appealed in him. >> i can show them donald trump. it was less than a week ago, jamie diamond, ceo o

, lot of trump voters in minnesota, minnesota was very close. if you look at 20:20, you come in here 50 to 45 here. if he come back here, it's even more. it's even closer here because of the third-party candidates in 2016. again, these small rural areas and tim walz does pretty well, but josh shapiro did well in more republican areas to it's a generational pick is a comfort pick that's the debate we're having. is it a white picket fence or the nice landscaping outside of governor shapiro's home there. the fascinating thing to me about this shot is number one, the truncated calendar. so the vice president, vice president harris, now the democratic nominee is taking to the last possible second to make this decision. and then there's no data. there's no data anywhere that says this actually impacts votes come november, but it is her first big executive decisions, so it will get a big bus reporting mj lee reporting that the vice president went to sleep last night, having not made a decision, our jeff zeleny reporting that this morning, he believes t

we're expected humour, not minnesota nice, attack dog, the | not minnesota nice, attack dog, the barena in temple university, we're looking at it now. before the vice president and governor walk out. this is a converted crowd at these events. these people are volunteers, they work hard for the party and they are invited to these moments as a reward, essentially. i invited to these moments as a reward, essentially.— invited to these moments as a reward, essentially. ithink it's a little bit of _ reward, essentially. ithink it's a little bit of all — reward, essentially. ithink it's a little bit of all of _ reward, essentially. ithink it's a little bit of all of that. _ reward, essentially. ithink it's a little bit of all of that. if - reward, essentially. ithink it's a little bit of all of that. if you - little bit of all of that. if you look at the george or rally that vice president harris had, it was jam packed. that wasn'tjust volunteers. that was average americans who are curious and interested and excited about her candidacy. i think you will see a mix of that here as well. it's

and yes, minnesota is not a classically swing-state, but i paul, minnesota, the reddest blue state in the country. and here's why donald trump in 2016 narrowly won the state of minnesota over hillary clinton in this campaign, they have been trying to also put minnesota into play. >> in fact, donald trump and j.d. vance were campaigning in minnesota just a week or so ago with joe biden on the top of the ticket polls showed that minnesota was indeed in play. that is snapped back a bit. so even though minnesota has not voted republican since 1972, it has been much closer than that. but tim walz back to him? yes, he served in congress on the veterans affairs committee and other things. he wasn't a prominent member of congress. he was it is a workhorse, not a show horse in the words of one of his supporters. but through that he did gain relationships, through that he showed that he worked across the aisle in a bi-pop partisan way back when that was more the norm in washington, of course, it is not been in recent years. but the question here going forward, there's no doubt republicans alrea

because he's from minnesota.grew up on a farm. his dad was in the army. he did 24 years in the army national guard. he was a command sergeant major which is a big deal. he was a high school social studies teacher. his wife was the english teacher. he was the football coach. he ran in a conservative district, was seen as a centrist, was the congressional sharpshooter, and when parkland happened, when the parkland shooting happened and his daughter was 17 years old. he's a life-long hunter and rated from the nra. he decides he needs to evolve on that issue. as most gun owners do, decides he's going to support background checks, red flag laws and other common sense gun safety laws. and when he was running for governor that year when all of that was happening, he makes that change and then he turns around and he donates to charity every dollar the nra ever donated to him over the course of his career when he was an a-rated nra from a rural red-leaning district. >>> now he has an f. >> what the harris campaign is sayi

anchor: he's been described as minnesota nice. what does that mean? mr.it depends on who you ask but i will tell you it means we believe in civility. we believe a lot of luster and open nastiness is not the way to do politics. at the same time, you shouldn't ever discount the toughness of a minnesotan. we live in the coldest state decides alaska, we are pretty hardy and determined. what you will get by minnesota nice is a smile and kind word but determination to get things done. anchor: does that mean he will be able to fulfill the role that often falls to vp candidates, to be the attack dog to keep the top of the ticket above the fray? mr. ellison: what he will do is the way he does everything, with a smile, with a joke and he is so funny and has such a quick wit you don't want to be on the business side of his wit because everybody will be laughing except for you. not that ever been the target of that but i've seen it have to happen on occasion. for example, i've heard some detractors say he is further left, that's what j.d. vance said. what is far left

so let's go back into minnesota here. this is what the governor's race was for his reelect, he won here 52.3% to 44.6%, about 7.5 points so there is what he won by. he actually had a bigger margin of victory in his initial run in 2018, there was a bigger democratic year than 2022 was, but he still wins reelection with a very healthy margin and considerably more votes than the republicans did. there. and what you look at that, you just say, i'm going to just pull out here and if i can get to the 2020 presidential map, here's minnesota, right so when you look at this blue wall here of pennsylvania, mitch michigan, and wisconsin these three states have a lot of similarity with minnesota, especially michigan and wisconsin. i can imagine omar given was a success in winning over a place like minnesota we're going to see him for the next 92 days, parked in that line of blue wall states so let's say they're here. >> what is that crossover appeal. do you think? thank you. can help kamala harris solidify some of those states or wil

you could send him to rural minnesota.ld send him to ely, to marshall, wherever you want, the heart knows the heart. and authenticity and genuine character translates no matter where you go. just like in the barber you talked about. the boxes we separate each other with, and that authentic character were you can take him anywhere, so he can go to all those states. he is going to give you five or six states, or more. >> right. i mean, i looked at the selection of governor walz, and i saw minnesota, michigan, wisconsin, north dakota, where my in-laws live, but [ laughter ] iowa, but you will translate. attorney general ellison, you said the key line, the heart knows the heart, and, i think that's exactly why-- people are just wild about not just vice president harris, but also your minnesota governor, tim walz. we will have to leave it there. minnesota attorney general keith ellison, as always, thank you very much for coming to the saturday show. >>> coming up, if kamala harris and tim walz win in november they won't be the

paul, minnesota, with governor walz right there, by her side. and after the supreme court struck down roe v wade, tim walz was the first governor to sign a law codifying abortion- rights into law in his state. >> we are now at a signing of a landmark reproductive freedom bill, less than one month after taking our oath of office. [ applause ] so, to minnesotans, know that your access to reproductive health and your right to make your own health care decisions are preserved and protected, and because of this law, that won't change with the political winds or the makeup of the supreme court. >> he has also made it so kids in minnesota get free lunches, because research shows time and time again, if kids aren't hungry, they learn better. he was a proud union member who signed a bill as governor on junk fees, that would allow greater disclosure of all costs. he also banned noncompete agreements in his estate, a move that the biden administration would actually take national. in congress, tim walz was the highest ranking enlisted service member ever e

minnesota is in the water. what are your thoughts? >> well, we've had some pretty successful vice presidents. a joke has minnesotans bounce their babies on their knees and say, one day you can grow up to be vice president. but we have given comma harris who made a fantastic choice here. a true leader tim walz is a good friend of mine. we go way back my mother-in-law actually right his family a chicken parmesan dinner when their son gusts was born, that is small town. that is mankato, minnesota, where my husband grew up. and that's where tim was a as was described, burly high school football coach as well as a teacher. and i think one thing that's getting a little mist in this early coverage is he represented an incredibly world district. he was one of only two democrats in 100 years to get elected to represent that district successfully with the support of republicans democrats, and independents. he united people. he brought people gather, and he took on tough things in his incredibly optimistic way. and that's

minnesota is not better under the leadership of governor walz.ouse minority leader. thanks for joining us. >>> a pakistani national allegedly with ties to the iran arrested, charged in connection to a foiled assassination plot potentially targeting president trump and other politicians. details are coming in. we're going to have the report. also tonight the media a touting tim walz without digging in. >> tim walz is a younger, you know, in that sense a younger version of -- version of joe biden. >> to characterize him as left is so unreal. >> because not many vps have stood in a deer stand. >> he's quirky, he's funny. >> america's going to fall in love with tim walz. elizabeth: seriously, do you believe any of those individuals that you just heard from? why is the media already giving walz a free pass with little to no scrutiny? it's being called the kamala treatment. we've got a panel here to react. but first, let's hear from -- what's going to be coming up on the hit show, "the bottom line." let's check in with dagen and and sean. sean: hey, e-

what happened in minnesota and minneapolis.all of minneapolis, watch it. he abandoned police and his unit. vance went and did his job. contrasts like that will be made very clear. j.d. vance, you see it now slinging everything at him. names and labels. he is pivoting back to what about the border? what about crime? how did they handle covid? all those things will be key as they litigate these issues. >> harris: i want to ask you quickly and i have steve moore standing by because we'll talk about this last few days in the economy coming up. just real quick, pete. are you starting to see a difference in j.d. vance? there was criticism out of the gate and now he does pop up press conferences and gaggles on planes. how tough will the road be for democrats with someone who is going to continuously be asked the anti-semitism question? >> yeah, he won't know. they -- the left and democrats won't be able to answer it. vance is a smart guy who knows what he believes. comes from a humble background with a stable solid family that he has

minnesota was similar.nesota was more in play because democrats were disheartened, they did not have energy. harris gets the presumptive nomination and democrats got hopeful. then the energy started to come to minnesota. i was in rural minnesota where two years ago i moderated a debate between governor walz and his republican opponent. the mood today was very different. they were skeptical that walz is the congressman he was, but they know he brings an energy to the campaign that i think independents and moderates are hoping to see and what was previously a pretty stale campaign between trump and biden. >> what did you here tonight? did you close your eyes and was josh shapiro barack obama and did tim walz get you off the couch? >> i did not think he was barack obama, but he was good. very good. i think this is a smart choice, a shrewd choice. >> some people have been saying safe. >> some people have been saying safe and i think that somehow sells it short because that implies inconsequential. he is a polic

tim walz, the governor of minnesota. soon as we get confirmation. we can talk to the bbc�*s correspondent who has been in washington until the last few days. what is your reading if that is the choice, and less stress that we have not had it confirmed, but the indications are that it is who will be her running mate in this crucial race for the white house, so what do you make of that choice? it race for the white house, so what do you make of that choice?— you make of that choice? it has not been confirmed _ you make of that choice? it has not been confirmed by _ you make of that choice? it has not been confirmed by multiple - you make of that choice? it has not| been confirmed by multiple sources including the new york times and reuters and cnn, so it is almost certain that that is the case, and i think he's a sensible choice. he was the bookmakers favourite, i was checking the odds, he was in first place, and second wasjosh shapiro. he is a wise choice because he is the kind of everyman candidate, he seems like a norma

in minnesota we made it easier for workers to form unions. we strengthened workers' protections and, yes, we banned those damn captive audience meetings for good in minnesota. [applause] last time i said that at a union meeting they sued me over it. it was the best thing to get sued over i ever sat. we're going to continue to ban those meetings. but we did more than that for families. and afscme workers that are there every single day. we did things to improve people's lives in a real fundamental way. we guaranteed free breakfast and lunch to every single child in minnesota. [cheers and applause] that helped a whole lot of school employees, afscme members keep their students engaged and keep them in the classroom learning. today minnesota's one of the best states for workers in the country. [applause] i'm surrounded by some that
