Summary

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Embattled Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is expected to bow out of the 2026 re-election race as he faces mounting national criticism over a massive Somali fraud scandal engulfing his state. “He’s likely to drop out of the 2026 #mngov race,” Minnesota political analyst Blois Olson posted on X Sunday night. The news comes as Walz’s office has scheduled a press conference for 11 a.m. today. Democratic Sen. Amy Klobuchar, whom he said Walz met with Sunday, is a likely contender to replace the governor in the race. Also the future of the new Venezuela under US sanctions and a newly placed leader, the latest update on this ongoing story and with Eric turning 60, the guys discuss the attention span of on demand and social media and how older age demands instant gratification!
