In 2022, DFL Rep. Lucy Rehm defeated Greg Boe by 417 votes . In 2024, Rehm defeated Caleb Steffenhagen by 225 votes . This year, Rehm faces a rematch with Steffenhagen. Further, a friend of mine who used to live in CD-2 told me that Chaska and Chanhassen are usually reliable red. That means, I hope, that Rehm is living on borrowed time. According to Steve Schier, Professor Emeritus at Carleton College, fighting fraud is the top issue in Minnesota: Finally, "Rehm opposed removing illegal aliens from a state healthcare program and voted against keeping males out of female sports." I won't be diplomatic. That's just foolish. That's disrespectful to taxpayers. Just for that alone, she deserves to lose.

When did Democrat fundraising "behemoth" ActBlue turn into former Bill Clinton protector MoveOn.org ? In the article, it quotes (via an ActBlue statement) "ActBlue characterized the report as a Republican witch hunt meant to hurt the Democratic Party before the midterm elections. 'There’s nothing to see here,' ActBlue said in a statement to the Daily Caller News Foundation. 'After we released findings of a third-party forensic analysis that completely undermined a central claim that they have made against ActBlue, Republicans are refusing to move on. Instead, they are orchestrating another political stunt before rushing out of town weeks early to go campaign.'" Trusting ActBlue to conduct a NEUTRAL third-party review is foolish. Let's see how long ActBlue's "third-party forensic analysis" holds up when Jim Jordan questions ActBlue. I'm betting that they'd quickly fall apart. This is rich: "This coordinated campaign aga...

The difference between Michele Tafoya and Peggy Flanagan aren't difficult to spot. In this tweet , Michele wrote "A cold one, but a great time at Dayton Heritage Days! Every community, every conversation, and every person I meet reminds me why I’m running. I’ll take all of your voices with me to the U.S. Senate." That's quite the difference from what we learned in this interview: Less than a minute into the interview, Michele Tafoya told Hugh that "We are trying to set up debates. We don't know if she'll be there but we will be." Then Michele said something that shocked Hugh. Michele said she had her own booth at the fair but that Flanagan didn't. Michele said that "hundreds of people showed up" at Michele's booth. Based on his voice, I'd say that Hugh nearly hit the roof. Michele said that Flanagan attended the opening day of the fair so she could check that box. Michele then explained that Flanagan would likely have to answer ...

It's pretty telling that Keith Ellison thinks that rich people are part of "the lucky few": Fired-up DFLers at today’s Blue Tsunami event in Fergus Falls. 52 days to turn that energy into action, keep Minnesota blue, and keep fighting for a Minnesota where everyone can afford their life. pic.twitter.com/xCWjmpnsAH — Keith Ellison (@keithellison) September 12, 2026 Ellison actually said "Economic prosperity for all, not just the LUCKY FEW ! Apparently, Ellison thinks that Elon Musk got rich by being lucky, not by inventing great products. He said that while campaigning in Fergus Falls. The next day, Ellison campaigned in Moorhead: Great rally in Moorhead talking to voters about the work we’re doing to make life more affordable for all Minnesotans. Thank you to everyone who came out today. pic.twitter.com/g8X5PdJUML — Keith Ellison (@keithellison) September 13, 2026 When Ellison sues people, it makes life LESS AFFORDABLE , not more affordable. Further, you'll no...

Peggy Flanagan has had a difficult week on the campaign trail. I'm betting that she's thinking that it can't end soon enough. Let's put it this way. I'd want it over ASAP if my opponent dropped this ad on Friday: NEW 📺 AD: We teach our kids that bad behavior has consequences, but somehow politicians think the same rules don’t apply to them. Peggy Flanagan ignored warning signs while fraudsters stole our tax dollars. She has spent eight years as lieutenant governor in the Walz… pic.twitter.com/utZpS40XRe — Michele Tafoya (@Michele_Tafoya) September 18, 2026 This is the text of the tweet: We teach our kids that bad behavior has consequences, but somehow politicians think the same rules don’t apply to them. Peggy Flanagan ignored warning signs while fraudsters stole our tax dollars. She has spent eight years as lieutenant governor in the Walz administration, yet now wants Minnesotans to believe she had nothing to do with its failures. We cannot allow her in the U.S....

Thursday afternoon, while I was watching America Reports when an attack ad against Sue Ek. The ad said "Sue Ek is running on a platform that calls for tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy and big corporations which could drive up local taxes and costs for working families. Her party platform also calls for creating massive new sales taxes on everything we buy, including groceries, clothing, and prescription drugs. Their new sales taxes would be used to cut taxes for the wealthy and big corporations, shifting the burden to the rest of us." I'm calling BS on the Minnesota Values Project. They're the dirtbags that paid for this ad. I'm not just calling BS on the Minnesota Values Project. I'm highlighting the difference between what they said and what Sue Ek is running on for issues. Economy, Business Climate & Affordability for Minnesotans "A strong economy starts with local businesses and hardworking people. I support creating an environment where small bu...
