ICE, Minnesota, Venezuela On The Brett Winterble Show

Tune in here to this Wednesday’s edition of the Brett Winterble Show! 

Brett kicks off the program by talking about an ICE-involved shooting in Minneapolis and the escalating unrest he believes is unfolding as a result of political leadership failures. He frames the incident as a potential replay of the chaos seen in 2020, arguing that simultaneous events — including a congressional hearing alleging fraud by Minnesota officials and a surge of ICE enforcement activity — have combined to create a volatile situation. Brett criticizes state and city leaders, including Governor Tim Walz, Mayor Jacob Frey, and Attorney General Keith Ellison, accusing them of inflaming tensions while refusing to support federal law enforcement efforts.

We’re joined by the coach Matt Doherty to talk about the fallout from the ICE-involved shooting in Minnesota and the broader implications of U.S. action in Venezuela. Coach Doherty weighs in on what he sees as two crises colliding in Minnesota: an ongoing fraud scandal tied to state leadership and a deadly confrontation now dominating headlines. He argues that Governor Tim Walz and local leaders are using the incident as political cover, urging patience until the facts are known while questioning whether the situation is being exploited to deflect from deeper problems. The conversation then pivots to foreign policy, where Doherty praises the precision and resolve of U.S. military action under President Trump in Venezuela, calling it a decisive stand against tyranny, narco-terrorism, and foreign adversaries gaining influence close to home. He closes with a warning about socialism, pointing to Venezuela as a cautionary tale and urging Americans, especially young people, to study history before embracing failed systems.
