Episode #245 of the @professorpennpodcast. Professor Penn outlines a hard-nosed playbook for strategy and tactics: diagnose Minnesota’s “belly of the beast” politics, rising crime, and economic decay; expose the push toward digital ID and centralized control; and reject waiting for top-down fixes. He revisits Precarious State, critiques uni-party governance, and contrasts “air game” headlines with the ground game of precinct organization, fundraising, and culture change. Core tactics: build personal health and resilience, map your precinct, assemble neighbors, and prepare for a record 2026 caucus. The episode closes with a mandate—organize locally or be organized by others.
