PRESIDENT BUU VAN NYGREN INTERVIEW - 2026 Incumbent Candidate with Cal Nez

Where did the money go? In this deep-dive investigative episode, host Cal Nez sits down with Navajo Nation President Buu Van Nygren to demand hard answers on the missing $24 Million in ARPA funds. Before the President arrived, we laid the groundwork by breaking down the complex, frustrating realities of the Navajo Nation procurement process and the infamous 164 review process. To truly understand how we got here, we trace the complicated chronological timeline of these ARPA allocations back to the Nez/Lizer administration. While we’ve only scratched the surface of this massive, multi-year timeline, this interview pushes past the talking points to get real answers on the record. Throughout this ongoing discovery, we identify the key players who held the pens and signed the papers. We’ve laid out the facts, traced the paperwork, and asked the questions. Now, it is up to the Navajo people to listen to this interview, look at the timeline, and judge the truth for yourselves.
