Kendall Qualls Vows to Crush Crime, Revamp Schools, and Ignite Minnesota’s Economic Comeback

 

 

In this week’s episode, Jennifer welcomes Kendall Qualls, a US Army veteran, business executive, and the newly announced candidate for governor of Minnesota. Kendall’s remarkable life journey began in poverty, growing up in Harlem and later in an Oklahoma trailer park. After working his way through college delivering pizzas, he served as an artillery officer in the Army and later earned his MBA from the University of Michigan. Kendall’s professional career spans innovation startups, private sector businesses, and nonprofits, making him a compelling advocate for strong conservative principles and a living embodiment of the American dream.

 

Jennifer and Kendall dive into a candid discussion about the current political climate in Minnesota and across the nation. The conversation tackles controversial topics, including the narrative of systemic racism, the collapse of family structures in minority communities, the shifting Democratic Party influenced by socialist and Marxist elements, and the impact of failing education systems and crime rates in urban areas. Kendall criticizes the rhetoric of leaders like Ilhan Omar and Tim Walz, raising concerns about divisive speeches and ineffective leadership. He shares his vision for restoring economic prosperity, public safety, and education in Minnesota by returning to foundational American values of faith, family, and hard work. The episode explores the challenges faced by communities, the manipulation of political narratives, and the slow exodus of voters from the Democratic Party.

 

“It's a dirty, ugly business. When you lift up the carpet and you look underneath this thing. We're fighting a battle of good versus evil in a lot of cases.” ~Kendall Qualls
