Episode #428: Walz Came Tumbling Down

A scandal ends Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's once meteroric political career, and Sen. Amy Klobuchar may be ready to take his place. And we remember Lou Cannon, the Washington Post White House correspondent and Reagan biographer who died last month. The post Episode #428: Walz Came Tumbling Down appeared first on Ken Rudin's Political Junkie.

Kathryn Pearson of the University of Minnesota explains the scandal that may have ended Gov. Tim Walz’s political career, and the expected decision by Sen. Amy Klobuchar that she would seek to succeed him this year.

And Lou Cannon, the chief White House correspondent during the Ronald Reagan presidency and a superb Reagan biographer, died last month at the age of 92.  He was last on the Political Junkie back in 2015, talking about the 1980 Republican convention and how Reagan helped his cause by picking George Bush as his running mate — and not former President Gerald Ford, who was rumored to be angling for a spot on the GOP ticket.

PLUS:  The Trump administration defends the murder of a woman in Minneapolis by an ICE agent.  And Greenland?  Seriously?
