[10] While Artuss Kaimiņš was a National Theatre actor, he went to the United States of America to pursue his career there.

– Kaimiņš explained why he believes he has a better chance of reaching his full potential in Latvia and Russia than in the USA.

[11] Kaimiņš has been a host of the radio programme ‘’Dog Kennel’’ (‘’Suņu Būda’’) on the station Boom FM.

The host said that his aim with the broadcast is to awaken common sense in Latvian society and to stop lobbyists from influencing politicians.

[12] He has hosted a wide range of guests, including ex-president Vaira Vīķe-Freiberga, ex-prime minister Ivars Godmanis and various Latvian pop-culture stars.

In these episodes, Kaimiņš tends to be controversial and calls out all of the flaws and problems that he sees with the establishment or the person he is interviewing.

Journalist Ilmārs Poikāns, who was one of the more well-known members of the party, revealed that he did not like Kaimiņš's style of leadership.

[16] In January 2020, Kaimiņš was expelled from the KPV LV parliamentary faction owing to alleged disloyalty to the party line.

[4] Coming back from a business trip to Lisbon in 2016, Kaimiņš was accused of behaving aggressively towards a flight attendant when he complained that announcements concerning arrangements for transit passengers were being made only in English and Russian and not Latvian, even though they were in Latvian airspace at a time when Latvia held the rotating Presidency of the Council of the European Union.

[20] Artuss Kaimiņš has repeatedly been blamed for promoting alcohol in his video blogs and interviews as a radio host in Boom FM.

[21] On 21 June 2018, the Saeima Mandates, Ethics and Submissions Committee granted permission for Kaimiņš to be detained and searched with regard to an ongoing corruption investigation.
