Tim Walz's final State of the State Address felt more like the start of the 2026 campaign than it sounded like a governing speech. KARE11 reported "Gov. Walz reflected on governing during the COVID-19 pandemic, racial reckoning, and his run for Vice President, calling his tenure a 'complicated seven years to say the least.' Walz spent a large portion of his speech going over his accomplishments as governor, including laws designed to help children and families. He also encouraged lawmakers to pass bills related to gun safety." Simply put, Gov. Walz isn't that persuasive. He could have another 10 years in office and still not get his gun agenda passed. That's partially because he isn't that persuasive, partially because most of Gov. Walz's agenda is unconstitutional. KARE11 is also reporting "After the speech concluded, GOP leaders called it disappointing and felt Gov. Walz did not take enough accountability for the fraud crisis in Minnesota. ...

The Quality Learing Center first became famous when Nick Shirley first investigated Twin Cities business sites during his fraud investigation. The QLC is famous this time because it's " part of a wide-ranging fraud investigation involving businesses and child care centers ." According to Alpha News, "HSI, in cooperation with its federal, state and local law enforcement partners, engaged in court-authorized law enforcement operations in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. For reasons of operational security and for the safety of our agents, we will not comment further at this time." Later in the article, Alpha News reported "Authorities emphasized that the operation is focused on alleged fraud and is not connected to immigration enforcement." To the surprise of no people whatsoever, Gov. Tim Walz said "If you commit fraud in Minnesota you’re going to get caught — and that’s exactly what we saw today. We catch criminals when state and federal agencies sh...

After hosting Tim Walz on his show last week, you'd think that Jimmy Kimmel couldn't sink lower than that. You'd be wrong about that. Today, President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump called on ABC to fire Kimmel after Kimmel told a 'joke' that was so morbid that it'd make Tim Walz's skin crawl. The AP is reporting that "Donald and Melania Trump both called for ABC to fire Jimmy Kimmel on Monday after a joke last week in which the late-night comic described the first lady as having 'the glow of an expectant widow.'" Kimmel said that before Saturday night's White House Correspondents Association Dinner when an assassin attempted to assassinate President Trump and members of his Cabinet. It's bad enough for a sicko from California to attempt to assassinate President Trump. It's worse when a supposed comic hints that the First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS) looks like a widow. The AP is reporting "Kimmel has long targ...

Republicans hate people who don't look like them. Back in 2007-8, then-Sen. Obama said it. Now Democrat Socialists of America Gov. Tim Walz insists that Minnesotans hate Somali refugees. He told Kimmel "It happens in other states. We were going back — many of these people were prosecuted in 2021. He used it as an excuse because it was a perfect thing to do to say there was fraud. Imagine that — you know, coming from this guy, he would know fraud where it was at." Notice how fluently Walz shifts gears from conversation to conversation. It's like it's something that comes naturally for him. That's because it is natural to him. It's as natural for him as for a chameleon to change colors. Then Walz stepped in it, saying "Demonize immigrant communities, especially the Somali community. And I said what he was doing was — the programs in Minnesota, look, we are a generous state. We’re also, like California, we’re a payer state. We pay more in than we get b...

Democrats almost cost President Trump his life last night. Democrats didn't almost cost President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump their lives by what they did as much as almost costing the First Couple their lives by what Democrats haven't done. Democrats haven't voted to fund the Department of Homeland Security. Democrats have told the American people that they won't fund DHS until ICE and Border Patrol are reformed. By that, Democrats mean they'll withhold funding until it's easy to dox ICE and Border Patrol agents. When Senate Republicans offered to make some adjustments to how ICE and Border Patrol do things, Democrats insisted that they wouldn't fund DHS until Republicans voted to make it easy to dox ICE and BP agents. Of course, that isn't how they worded it but that's what Democrats are still holding out for. Thanks to the Democrats' stubbornness, DHS isn't funded. It's time the American people made Democrats pay a severe poli...

President Trump addressed the media shortly after another assassination attempt on President Trump's life. RealClearPolitics reported "President Donald Trump addressed the media in the White House briefing room on Saturday following a shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner." Then RCP, aka RealClearPolitics, provided the nation with a partial transcript of President Trump's statement. Trump opened by saying "This was an event dedicated to freedom of speech that was supposed to bring together members of both parties with members of the press. And in a certain way, it did, because the fact that they just unified." It's time for those who passionately disagree with President Trump to consider the importance of unifying this nation. This is perhaps the third assassination attempt of President Trump in less than 2 years. In civilized nations, like the U.S., we settle disputes through elections,not gunfights. In civilized nations like the U.S.,...
