We sit down with Hope Walz, whose life changed overnight when her dad was picked to be Kamala Harris running mate. Hope opens up about facing sudden transformation, and how she’s navigated the emotional, practical, and spiritual upheavals that come with it. 

We also unpack Hope’s thoughts on the horrific murder of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, a story that’s shaken her community.

We also talk about why Donald Trump seemingly has it out for her family - and why she thinks that is. 

Plus she answers the question about will she ever run for office???

Today in South Minneapolis, an immigration enforcement operation turned fatal when an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. While the Department of Homeland Security is labeling the incident an "act of domestic terrorism," local leaders—including Mayor Jacob Frey and Governor Tim Walz—are calling it a "reckless" murder and "propaganda." We break down the timeline, the viral video evidence, and the escalating "occupation" of the Twin Cities.

Plus Eric Swalwell tells us what he will do about ICE if he elected Governor of California. 

The Incident at 34th & Portland: A breakdown of the events at approximately 9:30 AM. Renee Good, identified as a "legal observer" and U.S. citizen, was in her SUV near an active ICE raid when she was confronted by federal agents.

Conflicting Narratives:

The DHS/Trump Admin View: Claims Good "weaponized her vehicle" and attempted to ram agents, forcing a "defensive" shooting.

The Eyewitness/Video View: Witnesses and viral footage suggest Good was attempting to turn around or leave the scene. Reports indicate an agent reached across the hood and fired multiple shots through the windshield into her face.

The Political Fallout: * Mayor Jacob Frey’s Rebuke: "To ICE: Get the f*** out of Minneapolis."

Governor Walz’s Warning: Calling the federal narrative "bullsh*t" and a "propaganda machine," while putting the National Guard on alert to maintain peace.

The Broader Context: This killing occurs during a massive federal surge (approx. 2,000 agents) in Minnesota—just blocks from where George Floyd was murdered in 2020.

Legal & Civil Rights: What are the rights of legal observers? Who has jurisdiction to prosecute a federal agent for a shooting on city streets?

Just days ago, on January 2nd, the world watched as the United States launched a mission to apprehend and extract Nicolás Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores. Now, as Maduro sits in a New York detention center pleading "not guilty" to narco-terrorism charges, we ask the question everyone is thinking: What is the endgame?

The Takedown: We break down the timeline of the January 2nd/3rd strikes, from the Delta Force raid on the presidential compound to the first-of-its-kind use of one-way attack drones by the U.S. military.

The "Monroe Doctrine" Returns: President Trump has signaled that the U.S. will "run" the country until a transition is ready. We explore what this means for Venezuelan sovereignty and why Vice President Delcy Rodríguez is calling it a "kidnapping."

The Oil Factor: Is this about democracy, or one of the world’s largest oil reserves? We discuss the administration's "Absolute Resolve" to regain control of Venezuelan resources and the friction this creates around the world.

Global Fallout: From the emergency UN Security Council meetings to Denmark’s warning that this sets a "dangerous precedent" for NATO (Trump wants Greenland after all), we look at how America's allies and rivals are reacting to this "surgical law enforcement operation."

Is this the dawn of a new era of stability in the Western Hemisphere, or the start of a "destructive conflagration"? We’re finding out.

We’re joined by civil rights attorney and writer Qasim Rashid to break down a viral right-wing video that falsely attacks Somali Americans in Minnesota. Qasim walks us through how the video was constructed, why its claims about “fraud” and “crime” completely fall apart under scrutiny, and how racist disinformation is deliberately engineered to spread outrage and fear. We dig into the mechanics of viral propaganda, the political incentives behind targeting immigrant communities, and why these lies persist even after being debunked.

What we cover in this episode:

How a viral right-wing video targeting Somali Americans was created and distributed

Why the claims about fraud and criminality collapse when examined with real data

The role of racism and xenophobia in modern political disinformation

How influencers monetize outrage and fear for clicks, donations, and clout

Why immigrant communities are frequent targets in election cycles

The media ecosystem that allows false narratives to spread unchecked

What responsible journalism and fact-checking should look like in moments like this

How audiences can better spot and resist manipulative viral content

We discuss what fascism really means, where the term comes from, and how Trump’s rhetoric, governing style, and political movement compare to historical and modern examples. From attacks on democratic institutions and the press to strongman politics and loyalty tests, we separate analysis from outrage and ask what actually matters as Americans head into another high-stakes election cycle.

We also have some fun with the humiliating boxing matches for both Andrew Tate and Jake Paul over the weekend.

Maine Governor Janet Mills joins Find Out for a blunt conversation about something too many Democrats still tiptoe around: standing up to Donald Trump. Mills discusses how she’s actually fought Trump , defended democracy, and delivered results in a state that rewards strength—not spin. We also get into why the myth of Susan Collins as a “moderate” survivor needs to die, and why Mills makes the case that clear contrasts, backbone, and a real record are exactly what it will take to beat Collins in 2026.

Democrats keep their win streak alive in special elections, while Trump completely melts down over, well, everything.

Across a series of special elections, Democrats have been outperforming expectations, even in districts once reliably Republican. We’ll explore why Democratic candidates are winning and whether this momentum can carry into the 2026 midterms. 

At the same time, the GOP — and especially Donald Trump — find themselves in a bind. Trump-endorsed candidates have stumbled in high-profile races, and analysts are calling his influence “kryptonite” for some Republican hopefuls, particularly among key demographic groups like Latino voters.

We also look at Trump’s broader economic vision: the chaos, the uncertainty, the abandonment of working-class voters he claims to champion, and what his policies would actually mean for jobs, trade, and your wallet.

If you want to understand what’s driving rising costs — and why Trump’s policies are a direct threat to economic stability — this is the episode you need to hear.

We discuss how a deep-red seat nearly slipped out of Republican hands and why the surprisingly tight margin is setting off alarm bells inside the GOP.

We also dig into Donald Trump’s latest insane lies about “affordability,” why voters aren’t buying his nonsense, and how the cost-of-living crisis is very bad news for Republicans.

Finally, we ask the big question: with Democrats over-performing in race after race — and now in one of the reddest districts in the country — are we watching the early signs of a Blue Tsunami forming for 2026?
