From Fighter to Governor: Brad Kohler's Vision for Minnesota
What does it take to transform a struggling state? According to Brad Kohler, it requires someone who isn't afraid to fight—literally. The former UFC fighter, world champion, and successful entrepreneur brings his competitive spirit to politics as he campaigns to become Minnesota's next governor.
"Minnesota needs someone with a spine who isn't afraid of opposition," Kohler declares in this candid, no-holds-barred conversation. With a background spanning from wrestling championships in Ohio to winning three world titles in MMA, Kohler has now set his sights on what he calls his toughest fight yet: restoring Minnesota to its former glory.
Kohler's economic vision is radically simple—eliminate business taxes completely. "We're going to put up red flares to build our economy and bring business people back to Minnesota," he explains, contrasting his approach with current leadership. His plan includes cutting what he describes as 20% waste from the state's budget, implementing toll roads, reopening the Iron Range for mineral extraction, and expanding airports to create a quarter-million new jobs within five years.
On social issues, Kohler pulls no punches. He advocates strongly for Title IX protections for female athletes, opposes transgender participation in women's sports, and promises day-one action on immigration. "The money goes to our people—the people who work for it here in Minnesota are the ones who deserve it," he states emphatically when discussing his priorities.
Perhaps most striking is Kohler's positioning as a political outsider unbeholden to special interests. "I will not owe one person when I get in office," he promises, rejecting PAC money and emphasizing his independence. "I'm just one of those guys who doesn't quit. Everything I've ever done, I've reached the pinnacle."
Whether you're concerned about crime, education, taxes, or Minnesota's economic future, this conversation offers a fascinating glimpse into an unconventional candidate's bold vision.

Speaker 2:And we're going to get through pre-roll here and jump into the nuts and bolts of this so we can have a conversation with Brad and see his trajectory on life. So, hudcast, we'll be back in just a moment. Stand by, we've got to take a break.

Speaker 2:Welcome back to the podcast. Brad Kohler, state of Minnesota, needs you desperately to unseat the guy who's there now. Are you there? Yes, tim, how are you? Sir? Thank you for taking your time to come on in. I want my listeners and your listeners going to be pretty soon to just kick back and say who is Brad? What does Brad have to bring to the table? There's a lot of questions, and first of all, let's get to know you first. You broke into the political scene. Just what, five years ago, you said right, yes, sir, yeah, I did. And before that, let's get a synopsis on what you did up to this point.
Speaker 4:Well, I'm originally from Cleveland, Ohio. As a wrestling state champion there in Ohio and went on to wrestling, played football in college, ended up moving here to Minnesota and starting my MMA career and ended up in the UFC a couple times. Get to travel the world, fight in many shows all over the world, all the major productions I was in. I had won three world titles in MMA. I won also three titles in jujitsu and grappling and then eventually got into the business world. I invented several boxing products and fitness products that I still sell a few all over the world Nice and I've been in the restaurant business for 45 years in and out with the fitness and now I have my own Italian catering that I do part-time while I'm campaigning full-time now.
Speaker 4:I left my full-time job. I was running four restaurants, four multimillion-dollar restaurants up until December and I decided that this is what I want to do and I'm the guy that can fix Minnesota and I believe that and I have a very good team behind me that I've built over the past five years and we are not tiptoeing in the sand, no more. We're diving in and we're committing to this and it's a big sacrifice for me and my family, but we feel that we have a very strong campaign, we have a strong message and somebody has got to step up and fight for Minnesota and unite Minnesota again. Oh for sure.
Speaker 2:For sure. Now, what's your thought on District 5? Because Ilhan, her district is pretty much a blue gig and her followers are such that if you don't win at least part or most of five, or even half of five, you don't have a fighting chance in this state.
Speaker 4:Well, I believe that once I'm elected, that's going to go to a special election, because she'll be arrested and deported. It's on the list. I'm very strong about that. She flat out has been talking about how white men are the ones who destroyed America and she's anti-American. She's committed many crimes, let alone fraud. She is hiding illegal immigrants. We need to stop this and hold people to a higher standard if they're going to be elected officials. She was elected to represent the people of America and the state of Minnesota, not another country.
Speaker 2:Mm-hmm. So, in a nutshell, how are you going to get that vote? What are you telling your listeners? What are we telling my listeners that? Are on the fence Because there's middle of the road on both sides and there's no fixed value. If you're common sense, there's just common sense.
Speaker 4:Well, we have two broken parties and although I am running under the Republican banner and I've been a Republican candidate now for the past four years and ran in three elections and my goal when I got into it was not to ask for money or donations was to learn what was going on in the political world and how to basically win world. And how to basically win because Republicans don't have a lot of backing here and the GOP is broke. Matter of fact, they're in debt right now and they're in disarray. So how do I win, knowing I have conservative values and I'm certainly not Democrat and this woke idealism is just not for me. So am I more of an independent conservative than I am Republican? I'm only that way because the party is in disarray. You know I cannot follow the party that is not organized, and yet I am Republican. I'm a big Trump fan and I believe in what he's doing, but you know I'm focusing on Minnesota and how to fix Minnesota, and that's the plan that I'm walking into office with. Oh, absolutely.
Speaker 2:And that sounds like good words, wisdom, sure, but let's say I'm still on that fence. You haven't convinced me yet, brad Sure.
Speaker 4:There are certain issues that I really want to get across to people that you know, I see the problems. I'm not one of these rich guys that's getting in with all kinds of money backing. I'm just a regular guy, self-employed. You know, and you know, inventor author. You know, yeah, I'm a former pro athlete, but you know that's not like. You know, I made millions of dollars.
Speaker 4:It just you know, it's nice to be at that level of playing or competing, which I thought was a great accomplishment, but at this rate, in Minnesota, what we need to do is very common sense. This is very simple to do. We need lower taxes. And how am I going to lower taxes? Well, businesses in Minnesota are not respected nor appreciated, and we need to have. You know, like how Walls put up these whoops, how he put up these red flares for certain things that, of course, were negative to the population and also the economy. I want to do the opposite. I'm putting up red flares to build our economy and bring business people back to Minnesota. So we're going to offer no business taxes Whoa, no business taxes, and we can do it. You're talking like a TIF in or something. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2:You're talking about TIF districts and set up all that or no taxes period, no taxes period, wow, okay.
Speaker 4:So we have a lot of regulations that we can do without as well. One thing I also want to do without is employment taxes. Again, our employers are beaten up every day by all this paperwork and it's very hard to employ people these days. I don't keep them because the employers, the businesses, are getting beat up by the state Absolutely. So there's a lot of things I see in the future of Minnesota and these aren't things that are unforeseeable. We can do these things.
Speaker 4:You look at our $70 billion budget. That 20% of that is overspending, right. So we lower that by 20%. We get rid of some of the clowns that are in there that do nothing but take up these token positions they're not even qualified to do. We bring in the right people I could do with half the amount of people and then we stop some of these. Of course, the fraud is ridiculous. So we cut out the overspending, we tighten up the belts in government spending. We, of course, stop the fraud, make this very transparent office, make it very you know honest and say this is what we're going to be doing. We'd be very open with the people of Minnesota.
Speaker 4:You know and I like what Trump is doing, but he was very aggressive with us. You know, he scared people on these tariffs. He really didn't come to say, hey, you know, this is what we're going to do. We're going to and this is why we're going to do it. Here's our benchmarks, here's what the plan is and by this date, you know, this is what we should be at.
Speaker 4:You know, and I'm not really sure how he would have done that, but I mean, but this is what I would have done. I would have said, hey, folks, here's what we're going to do. We're going to cut back on real estate taxes and how we're going to offset that is is by we're going to have toll roads for people coming into the state. Now, right now, of course, we have a lot of illegals coming here for free, taking up taxpayer money and, of course, using the roads as well. This is also a safe thing to help with, like drug trafficking and human trafficking. So places we can set up, you know, nets and stings where we have these toll roads coming into the state, paying for our roads and offsetting some of the road taxes that we need to do. So we want to lower the property taxes to the burden that we have right now. Eventually, we're going to be renting from our own government, which is not a good thing, right.
Speaker 4:So I have a lot of things that I want to do. As far as taxes go. I have another revenue stream that I want to bring into a couple actually, that I want to bring into Minnesota to bring in more money. Of course, you know, open the iron range. We want to drill, baby drill. We want to get those minerals. We want to take those back over and use as a source of revenue here in Minnesota and employ more people.
Speaker 4:I want to expand St Cloud Airport, build another airport in Albert Lee and bring another quarter of a million jobs to Minnesota in the next five years after I'm in office. These are things that are very feasible. Looking at the $5 billion funding we'll have to get from the federal, I don't think that's going to be a problem. These are things that I think that are very feasible, things we can do in Minnesota to grow Minnesota. You know we put up a red flare to say no business taxes in Minnesota. We're going to get businesses coming in here to Minnesota and making it a destination again, not seeing our people leave because they're frustrated or can't afford to be here. No more. The goal is to make Minnesota affordable again.
Speaker 2:Yeah, there's a lot of flags and really, if you think about it, let's say this is day one. You win this election. Yes, Trump went all out on his pen. There's no doubt about that.
Speaker 4:I'm going to have to you have two pens, no kidding.
Speaker 2:And when you say you're going to set up a sting, you're going to do these things, how, how? Because you know those are pretty strong words for the guys who are on the fence, or the females, or whoever it is, whatever gender you pick these days, which there are only two, by the way. You are correct, you're scaring them. You're scaring them. You're saying, hey, look, stings, what Government overreach. What are you saying to these guys?
Speaker 4:Well, we want to protect the women's rights, of course, in all cases there, whether it's the abortion or especially in women's sports. I'm all for Title IX. These young women today, they're in sports, they get into their sports to compete at people of their own level and their own standards, and when men are entering that, that should be illegal and this state is violating that law or not law, but what Trump had initiated, and I'm sorry, but that day one no men in women's sports, absolutely.
Speaker 2:Now where have you geographically located? Close to each other, and I won't say the state, because this is an underground bunker and we don't want nobody to know location. Okay, but recently in our community Alaska, recently in our own community we've had a scuttle on the pages. Yes, recently in our own community we've had a scuttle on the pages where a biological male competes in a female's venue. Yes, pretty much venue.
Speaker 4:And has been.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 4:And in the locker room and at sleepovers.
Speaker 2:Yes, so they call this male, whatever they call him, and what they're. What they're not getting is he's a child. They called him this, this, this 17 year old boy, a child and of course, on the pages, well, he's just a child. You know, I get that you don't want bullying on any page. How are you going to stop?
Speaker 4:that we have to make it law. We have to you. We have to make it law. We have to you know this has got to be something that is is going to be enforced. And I'm sorry, but the parents are just as guilty, and this is a mental issue that should be addressed. This is one of those issues that you know deceit is a lie. Yes, and I'm sorry, you've lied to your community, You've lied to your team, You've lied to your team, you've lied to other teams and you've played unfairly. This is not right for the other women in the other teams that have to play against you.
Speaker 2:Yes, absolutely, but this is again a community where we're all of what 24 000 people, and we're the number 11th in the state as far as size of our city. How do we just say we're done with this without the left totally blowing something up or taking sniper shots at you?
Speaker 4:Well, right now it's not enforced, and because it's not enforced there's no accountability. So it's got to come from the top down and from the bottom to the top it's got to be. Look, you know, our education system, of course, is another topic, but this is part of the problem and you know, when this whole thing started, we didn't get a chance to adjust like we did in our day back when the gays were growing, and we don't have a problem with that. They have blended with society, but not forced to do it.
Speaker 4:We were forced, fed this. Yes, and that's where I have the problem with this. Like, hey, you got to give me some adjustment time here, not just ram it down our throats in just a few years. You know, I'm all for a co-ed sport if that's what they want to do.
Speaker 4:Something like this is just not fair, you know. I mean, can you see me coming out, even at my age of 60 years old, competing in the women's sports, even at 60, throwing a wig on and a bathing? Well, it'd be pretty nasty, but just in jujitsu or fighting, it just wouldn't be fair. Just because all of a sudden, you know, hey, maybe I have brain damage and took too many hits to the head okay, or dame brain damage, I should say. And now all of a sudden I feel that I'm, you know, feeling a little feminine here and want to compete in the women's division, just because what have you? But you know, I'm sorry, that's just, you know.
Speaker 4:I don't know how to say this without just saying this it's not right, it's not normal and it's not fair. And so when we started Title IX in the 80s, I was all for it. I was glad to see my friends in high school getting their own sport, even though we lost a couple of male sports. But you know, back then it was, you know, not as big as it is now, and and so when they fought so hard to get title nine, it's like this is a slap in their face. And so our state, our current government and leadership are not protecting the women of this state.
Speaker 2:And where are all the feminists now? Why aren't they jumping up and down and saying whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whiskey tango fox. What's going on here and why are you not taking care of us?
Speaker 4:You know, if you really are afraid for your body and you want the rights for a woman's body, are afraid for your body and and you want the rights for a woman's body. Imagine if, let's say, in a sport like mma mma, you know, I remember when a guy did transfer over to the women's sport because he thought he was a woman and he busted out two women's eye sockets in professional fights and that didn't last very long because, you know, unfortunately for her, him in that sport it is a contact sport, so you get the wrong dudes that are offended by that. Or maybe you got some dude in the cage fighting your girlfriend. Yeah.
Speaker 1:Okay, okay, my my girlfriend.
Speaker 4:Let's just say hypothetically, vaguely speaking here I'll use spitballing let's say, you know I'm a world champion and you know my girlfriend's a fighter. She's in there and all of a sudden, you know, this person gets in there and presents themselves as a female. We all think that because the promoter probably didn't ask that question. And they're in there and he busts my girlfriend's eye socket or breaks her nose or what have you. Okay, life altering things, yes, life altering things. Okay, you got a problem with me now. And I'm a man, yeah.
Speaker 2:But she jumped in the ring.
Speaker 4:None of it. She didn't know. Let's say it was deception. Well then, I guess I'd be looking at an event coordinator at that time. Well, you know, it's a deception. Yeah, and how is?
Speaker 4:it all coming out now, rather than just be honest and say, hey, you know, let's say you know, you got um, you know. You know, saint alibaba, over here is a school. Hey, by the way, you know we're playing you guys, today we have a trans person on the team. You want to make sure that you understand that. Are you okay with that? No, it's not fair. We, we will not play. They should forfeit all their games, you would think, and of course I can see that the team that has the player fighting for the, you know, but but they're just as guilty now if they knew and that's the problem.
Speaker 2:That's the problem. Yeah, uh, did you ever follow the one? What was that? Uh, she was a fencer. It was, I think it was one of the ivy league schools and they had a whatever thing come up to the transgender thing and at that point she took a knee. They get up to the line, they do their thing. She gets on a knee and says nope, not going to do this, and they DQ'd her for not fighting.
Speaker 2:I remember that it was like within like two or three weeks ago. Yeah, how do you feel about that?
Speaker 4:I think she was smart, You're right. I think she knew better than to you. You know she was protecting herself for herself she protected her, her principles and her freedoms.
Speaker 4:Yeah, for for the same very reason that you just described this, last five minutes, yeah and you know I'm not against anybody, I'm not for you know, uh, a certain this or that. I believe if you're happy, I'm happy, kind of thing. But when you affect other people and you do something to hurt other people, that's where it draws the line, and this is a potential threat for injury that we would not be recovered from. So let's just say something did happen. There's no backs, there is no give backs. Yep, this is it and it's forever.
Speaker 4:It's forever All because someone wanted you to believe their idealism of becoming another sex, which is okay, but because, like you said, they lied about it. You know, we have the Gen Zs and the millennials right now that have been through a lot of crazy stuff I mean things going on through COVID and whatever and they're still trying to establish their identities, which I believe in. You know. I remember my daughter went through this golf station.
Speaker 1:I'm like, oh my God, she's a vampire right, I'm like, oh god, she's a vampire.
Speaker 4:Right, she's a vampire. Yeah, I leave my cross on the on the bedroom door, yeah, so it's like you know they go through these things, but it's okay, I went through them too. We all did our identity stages in life and I believed that. But again, you know, when I wanted to be a rock and roller and wear kiss shoes and hair, you know and and you know I, I didn't wasn't gonna hurt anybody, you know.
Speaker 4:I mean it was like okay, you know you're kind of following. You know who you think you want to be like. You know you look at idols and people that you want to be like and you look up to, but you did it to yourself, right? I mean, you know, did I? I couldn't sing, I couldn't play, but but you know, I was just like, oh man, kiss. I'm like, you know, gene Simmons, and you know it's like wow, those guys are cool. They put themselves out there and wear this makeup and all this stuff. It's like going, wow, they really, you know, did it, they made it, you know, and I saw the story and how they did it. I mean, so those are Like.
Speaker 4:When I, you know, was trying to find myself and then, you know, got into wrestling and then fighting, I was in a sport that was illegal in 37 states and you know I was like, oh my gosh. You know we've got to be careful where we compete at or we're going to get in trouble. And now, look at it, it's the biggest stage in the world. You know, I think that people, one day, maybe this might be something that will be accepted. It's just not now and again. If we're going to have crossover like that and do a co-ed sport, I'm all for that. Let's make the rules up, let's make it fair, let's make sure everybody knows and we're honest and transparent about it, but this deceit. We just can't go on like that.
Speaker 2:Well, we are 20 minutes, actually 21 minutes into this first section. Let's do this. I've got to take a break. Tell everybody how the show gets paid for and then we'll come back and let's talk about the office, the office as a whole, how you would interact with communities, ie South Murderapolis, the whole deal. You good with that? I am you got time I do? Okay, all right, so stand by, huttcast. We've got to take a break. Listen to our sponsors and again, we always ask that you patronize our sponsors. No matter where you are in the world, they can always do things by mail, they can do things by shipping. So, heck, yeah, reach out. Yeah, reach out. Stand by HuttCast, we'll be right back this grilling season.

O'eddy's Whiskey Bourbon Sauce the sauce that's worth the wait.
Speaker 2:Welcome back to the podcast. Brad is in our studio today and he's been enlightening us with his great concept plans. My hat's off to you. This is not an easy thing and if anybody's ever run for office in any capacity, in any city, in any event, in anything, you'll understand how hard it is and the effort in which Brad has put into this is outstanding. So when I left you before the break, I was going to talk to you about the office, the office of how to get along with South Minneapolis, how to make sure that everything is distributed more evenly. I mean, it's such a complex question and I know you can't quantify this in a short period of time, but do what you can, because I'm in South Minneapolis. It's a whole different venue than, let's say, broken Center.
Speaker 4:Let's say Osseo, anything, yeah, but unfortunately it's expanding out to the suburbs here. It's kind of what you would call spilling over, and when I got involved with this it was during COVID and the George Floyd situation. I started again diving into politics. So I've been at this now since 2020. And I've been drawn into it because of my business being shut down of course, not once, but twice and trying to save my business through this whole ordeal of being shut down.
Speaker 4:We all remember COVID. We don't want to forget it because that's one of the things. That was the. You know, we're ground zero. This city is ground zero for a lot of destroyed cities, and our governor allowed that to happen. He did not protect and serve. We all know that. He allowed the city to burn. He allowed the police officers had to flee for their life to, you know, run from people trying to attack them, yes, and so this hasn't been fixed, since they haven't done anything. So this is part of some, you know, mind-blowing scheme to again make people poor. We had a beautiful city, a beautiful city.
Speaker 4:We had law and order and we could have had law and order if they acted. Right, okay, if they acted. But you know, doing nothing is also an action, it's just a negative one.
Speaker 4:And so it's just Minneapolis is tough down there, it's really going to be a situation where we've got to go in and really police it hard, fix Minneapolis. But it's not just Minneapolis, it's St Cloud, it's Duluth, it's Rochester. So we need to have a war on drugs and also this human trafficking, things like that that are going on right now because we don't have the police force that well. The police force is even afraid to step up sometimes.
Speaker 4:Who wants to be a cop these days, right, and that's a sad thing, because I remember growing up just admiring police officers, you know, and I'm for the police, I'm supportive of them. I think they have a hard job and they don't need anybody, especially politicians, getting in the way of law and order and we need to separate that. We need to support our police officers, create a standard once again. That you know, and I'm not trying to steal Tad Jude's line here of make crime illegal again, but we need to and people need to be held accountable. We're not going to do a catch and release, no more. I brought in Reverend Tim Christopher early as my lieutenant governor. I know Tim, okay, and Tim is from North Minneapolis.
Speaker 4:He's very connected down there along with a few of my other teammates on my party here I mean on my campaign and so we have a lot of connections in minneapolis and saint paul, hennepin and ramsey county. Uh. So with the, you know the connections with my vietnamese uh people, the, the laos people, the cambodian, the chinese, the, the, the mongs, the hindu indians, the hisics, the Ojibwean tribe, I mean I have a lot of connections with all of them. Oops, sorry, that's part of my campaign to unite Minnesota to bring it, of course, back to where it needs to be.
Speaker 4:You know, we need to make it affordable again, we need to get safe again and a destination, and to do that we're going to have to work together. But to do that we've got to get the corruption out of there. We've got to stop the fraud, we've got to start holding people accountable. We're going to do no more catch and release. There's going to be a new camp and I'll let Tim Christopher tell you about the camp he's going to be building for some of these juveniles that will not be released once they have committed a crime.
Speaker 2:Now, how do you feel about Frey, Mayor Frey?
Speaker 4:You know he's another part of the problem. You know I don't see him doing anything to solve the problems we have down there. You're either part of the problem or part of the solution, and the people that are part of the solutions keep getting, you know, walled, walled off, and it's hard to fix something when you have such a powerful force in place from that top seat, at the governor's, at the Capitol, the governor's seat, to enforce that wall. And then you have the attorney general, who, of course, the current one, the current attorney general that, basically, is just as much of a criminal as anyone in prison right now. And so how are we to fix this thing without replacing all of these key components?
Speaker 1:You have.
Speaker 4:Omar, you have Fry, you have Ellison, you have Moriarty, you have walls. Well, right there, that's a handful of people right there that, if we are to get rid of them and we need to and again, minnesota we need to come together and unite Minnesota and vote against these people, whatever it takes. We need to. As a fighter, I hate to say this, but we need to fight back and do it the right way, not parade down the streets and create havoc. And I always say you know how you're a Republican, right, you know how you're a Republican, okay go ahead, you're at work, okay.
Speaker 4:Or a conservative because we're the ones paying for all this stuff, and so we have to stop allowing this to go on. We have to say this is enough, and we need to step up. Support the people that represent you and your voice. Don't sit idle. You know what an idler is? Right, someone who sits idle, that's an idler.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 4:You can't be an idler. We have to be active. You know it is hard, but nothing worth getting is easy or impossible. It's not impossible. Yeah, yeah, Look at Trump.
Speaker 2:Nobody said it was impossible. And now look Right, and there are people that wouldn't vote for him if he's in a file. And yet here they are.
Speaker 4:Well, this is where the Gen Z's and Millennials come in today, and I agree with this. They are our future. They're the future of not just Minnesota but our country. They're the ones who bring that technology mindset that even the gamers are fantastic for our future, and people don't think about that. But you have to be realistic about their vision on what we want to do. We need people that can monitor drones and and monitor cameras and and see things that we don't see because their minds move different than I do. I mean we're 60 years older. I mean I know you're 25, but um, but you know.
Speaker 4:I mean we, we don't think like that and the way that they think is exactly what we need to to mold the future of Minnesota and the country. You know as a father and with Libby and I we have eight kids total and you know you want to better the next generation. As a parent, that is the ideal situation and that's what we need to start doing as people of office. We need to bring people in, young people in, and start molding them for the future, not just for the next four to six years, but the next 20 to 40 years. Because you know, this woke way of life has really damaged us and I'd like to sit in front of somebody who says that right now things are good. I want someone to sit in front of me and say things are great here in Minnesota. I don't want to change. I really want to hear that person and I don't really think that they're. I really don't think so.
Speaker 2:But if that's the right which we fought for.
Speaker 4:But again, I don't think they really know and understand is the problem. There's this company that the DFL hires. It's called Hire a Crowd, oh, okay, and they bring them in from all over you know compliments of George Soros and they pay these people to come from all over the country and here on buses with professional signs, scripts, and join together with the minimal people that we have here in Minnesota, so it looks like a bigger crowd. It's all an illusion and I can show you today. It's called Hire a Crowd and I was down at the Capitol a few weeks ago defending the National Guard on their constitutional rights and I was down there speaking for them.
Speaker 4:And I walk outside and there's that wall of people out there in front of Klobuchar as she's barking out there, you know, and there's so many people like what is going on here? You know I knew there's gonna be a protest out here, but there was a sea of people and I just walked up to someone and said, hey, so what's going on? What's this all about? And this dude is like oh man, we just got here from South Carolinaolina man, yep, yep, uh, paying us 200 a day, travel and food. And you know, here's the sign. I gotta hold up and scream these things on this script and, wow, that's, that's a pretty good gig. How do I get involved? Well, here, check this out. Here's the site, going in crowds, crowds on demand.
Speaker 4:I was on demand, thank you, yeah yeah, that's what it is I and I'm like, wow, you know, yeah, and so they hire these crowds on demand. That's the one, and it's amazing how you can really kind of have this delusion that they really have this strength and this momentum, and it's not true.
Speaker 2:I believe their entry is $20,000 to $50,000 to start. If it's under that, you've got to call and specify. It goes up to a million plus. You can get it on the website. It's just stupid. Yeah, I'm full aware of what they're doing. The question is where's this money? Going? Where's it coming from?
Speaker 4:I'll tell you, we're paying for it, that's right, the taxpayers, right. We're paying, uh, for our own enemies to campaign against us. Isn't that something? It's, it's a. It's a. You know, I didn't never knew this before I got involved and you know, it's like you get kind of fired up, you know, and as a former fighter, you kind of go.
Speaker 1:I know it tweaks. You doesn't?
Speaker 4:stay calm because you know one one wrong hit to somebody.
Speaker 2:You know well, you're a professional and they're expecting you would know your craft and you know it's like anybody else if, if you're a fighter, you don't kick them, you don't fight them no if they're, if you're a weapon specialist, you don't shoot them.
Speaker 4:So rather than talk about it, I did something about it that's right you that's what I wanted to do was to, you know, lead by example, not just sit there and you know and murmur in the corner about, oh, this person, that person or what have you. I said I'm going to get into this fight and I don't know nothing about it. I knew nothing.
Speaker 2:Were you familiar with this geographic location? We had a business in our city decided that they wanted to do a drag show. Were you familiar with that event?
Speaker 4:No, I am not.
Speaker 2:They wanted a local store to have a drag show which was next to a children's dance studio, and the pages blew up about it. I mean, there are people, I mean they're literally fighting on the page.
Speaker 4:I think I am remembering this now.
Speaker 2:Okay, this was just like a couple weeks ago. So in the city ordinance it says hey, if you're going to do an adult's venue, you can't do it, blah, blah, blah. But the city backed up a step and says we're not going to interfere. I said then you're not true to your statutes and ordinance. The attorney says it's a fashion show. I said fashion shows, which I was talking to him, are not 18 or older. That's an adult venue. They specifically call it an adult venue during the day. Now, I don't care what the cross-dressers, it is none of my business, I don't care. But when you bring it to a mall and you decide that you have decided for you that this is okay in your city and the city, who has clearly defined markers against it, didn't do anything about it, how do you think that feels as far as okay? When this city, when you control the government in our city, in our state, what are you going to have in position? A mechanism, a push button to say, look, the city's not doing their job?
Speaker 4:Well, this brings up the topic of our corrupt and failing justice system. That's a two-tiered system. You have an associate employee of the state that works for Walls that destroys Teslas, another person that isn't connected, like that in Brooklyn Center, that destroys Teslas and one gets convicted and one gets let off scot-free. So this is part of our problem about our two-tiered system. It's who you know and unfortunately, that that's coming out in the news and you know, like this, this racial stuff that moriarty is pushing right now.
Speaker 4:It's like you know, thank god, the us justice department stepping in because this is really getting out of hand and They've just pushed the envelope too far and, you know, not abiding by these rules and these laws and the whole. You know trans in schools and trans, you know, again, they push this thing down our throat. Now, if this would have been, you know the 70s.
Speaker 4:I mean, if this was in Vegas, that wouldn't have been a problem. I mean, but this was in Vegas, that wouldn't have been a problem. I mean, but it's next to a kids' school. Yes, yes, absolutely Okay. There are expectations when you go to Vegas of okay, I know, there's some strange stuff going on.
Speaker 2:You're on the strip, you're an adult, you've got your own thing, exactly, and there's not a dance school?
Speaker 4:next to you, there's a dance school. Or you know how about you walk into your school and you're a kindergartner, first grade class, and they want to have a book reading with trans. I mean, I'm sorry, but that's just not. How do you not react as an MMA fighter and go in there and stop them? Well, again, this is. You know, there's the violent approach, which is what they try to get you with and that's how they win.
Speaker 4:But getting in here and doing this, what I'm trying to do is get to the seat that basically has a say-so in this, and I believe there's enough people in Minnesota that says, yeah, this is not right. We need a person that's going to stand for our rights, which is, I believe, 80% of Minnesota, and so I'm the guy who will do it. I'm the guy who will do it. I'm not afraid. I do not need PAC money. You can't bribe me. You can't owe me. I will not owe one person when I get in office. I don't want any more money than the salary I'm going to be provided to do the job. I'll do it better than anyone else. I'm just one of those guys who doesn't quit. You know everything I've ever done. I've reached the pinnacle of the height of everything I've ever accomplished or, you know, done, and so this is one of the things. When I decided to dive into this. Leaving my job in December of last year, I said that's it, I'm diving into this.
Speaker 4:Full throttle, full throttle. We need this more. We can't sustain this direction. We are going to flatline in Minnesota if we do not get somebody in there with a spine that is not afraid of the opposition. We have got to turn this place into another again, a state that is a destination again. It's a beautiful state with a lot of great people and I think people have had enough and they need a representative that's not a politician, that is more conservative, moderate, that listen, I'm sorry, but these things, just they got to go. I'm not going to play ball with people who want to have these types of ideals, idealisms. It's just not right. It's going to stop.
Speaker 4:Day one you talk about the immigration, how it's hurting us and we're taking away from our seniors and our health care. Day one signing the papers. It stops. The money goes to our people. The people that work for it here in Minnesota are the ones who deserve it, not the ones who come here illegally. Earns it Okay. Day one Right, okay, and I've been on many shows already and I've said you have, until I get in office, to apply or leave. If you have applied and you have been working, I will consider having you stay and be part of our community, as long as you are a productive person in our society.
Speaker 4:I would love to help immigration here if they come here legally. But the ones that are here now not all of them are bad. They just followed the wrong people and it happens. But there are some criminals here that we have to get rid of and we're going to be vigilant about that. Right now they're hiding and they're being allowed to hide from us. They're being helped by our officials to hide and those officials will face charges. Yes, yes.
Speaker 2:Please make that happen. Day one, when I did Scott Jensen he was on that thing, I like Scott. We had a great conversation, a couple of them, and we always do this unofficial thing between us I said, if you win, I'm your communications director for the state of Minnesota. Okay, so if you do win, please consider me as your guy who's going to say the right things for you.
Speaker 4:Hey man, I like that idea. I have some great people in my staff, but nobody wants that position. They oh, I don't know if I get in front of people. I need someone that can talk, that's not afraid to use their voice. A lot of people like being behind the scenes. I have a really smart team, but they're not vocal like I am, like you are, and I think that would be a great idea.
Speaker 2:Well, it's unofficial, and if it ever came up and you win just remember old HuttCast we are ready to serve. Thanks, Tim.
Speaker 4:You know, minister, we have a tough, tough situation and we're going through tough times. But you know, tough people make good times. Weak people make bad times and if we want to have Minnesota, you know great again, we need tough people that are going to get in there and get the job done. Um, you can join my team at bradkohlercom.
