Tim Walz's disgusting press conference

My jaw hit the floor when I heard Gov. Walz say that replaying the 9+ minute videotape of George Floyd's death "have desensitized the horrificness of what was witnessed on that Memorial Day last year." Gov. Walz then continued, saying "And we're here this week because of that act. Plain and simple, where we watched a man's humanity get taken and then we watched his life be taken. Last June, we watched that pain and anger pour out into our streets here, across the country and around the world. That civil unrest that followed here in Minnesota left nearly 1,000 businesses in ruin and the lifestream of many with them." Later, Gov. Walz continued, saying "they very clearly stated that if the systemic changes that need to be made aren't made that things would repeat themselves. And when I say things, I mean the horrific deaths of young black men over and over and a systemic feeling in this state that not everybody gets the same opportunities. And just a week ago on Sunday afternoon, we in the world watched again as Daunte Wright's humanity was taken from him -- and then his life. And now we're here with out justice system, just put that decision in the hands of that jury." That's at least twice that Gov. Walz has talked about Daunte Wright without mentioning that there was a warrant for his arrest because he didn't show up for a 2019 court hearing after being accused of stealing $820 from a woman. When she wouldn't give him the money, Daunte Wright allegedly reached his hand inside her bra and grabbed the money. Doesn't this woman's humanity matter to Gov. Walz? Why does Gov. Walz and the DFL treat her like she's insignificant? Further, Gov. Walz made it sound like this was just a routine traffic stop until the police officer decided to shoot an unarmed black man without justification. The officer's bodycam footage paints a totally different picture. This is intentionally misleading the public. Gov. Walz knows that Wright had an outstanding warrant because he missed a court appearance in 2019. Why did Gov. Walz omit that part? Why is he still intentionally stoking racial animosity?

Tim Walz's Confederate Flag Fiasco

Image
After Minnesota's Democrats shoved the most controversial progressive legislation down Minnesotans' throats, gossip started popping up about Gov. Walz being interested in running for president . That's died off but Gov. Walz is still making headlines, this time for all the wrong reasons. First, Gov. Walz isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. Still, Gov. Walz is fighting against Minnesota's history. This Alpha News article quotes David Hann, the chairman of Minnesota's Republican Party, as saying " The flag the DFL has eliminated was a version of the historic flag our regiments fought under during the Civil War. Minnesota was the first state to offer troops to the Union cause in 1861 , beginning a long tradition of leading the nation in confronting injustice. The DFL quest to erase our history is repugnant and should be rejected." Gov. Walz, though, sees things differently. He's quoted as saying "Minnesota is a diverse state, it continue

What is Kamala Harris afraid of?

Image
Apparently, Kamala Harris suddenly loves debating. Let me rephrase that. Harris loves debating as long as the moderators are partisan hacks. She wants nothing to do with a debate moderated by Fox's Bret Baier and Martha MacCallum. She's afraid of Bret and Martha because a) they'll either fact-check both her and Trump or they won't fact-check either of them and b) Bret and Martha aren't afraid of asking follow-up questions. To a candidate whose answers are scripted and who isn't quick on her feet, the last thing you want is a follow-up question. Kamala fears follow-up questions like vampires hate wooden stakes, sunlight and holy water. Why has Kamala Harris avoided Fox News like the plague? The moderators/propagandists fact-checked Donald Trump aggressively but didn't fact-check Harris . Why didn't David Muir and Linsey Davis fact-check both candidates equally? Is it because Harris doesn't like fair fights? Perhaps she's just afraid of getting exp

Why is Joe Biden letting Hamas off the hook?

Image
It isn't disputable whether Joe Biden's administration is letting Hamas off the hook. That issue was settled months ago, when a spineless Joe Biden caved to activists interested in saving Hamas and thwarting the Israelis' attempt to defend themselves. Gerard Baker's op-ed highlights what's at stake for the U.S. if the terrorists are permitted to survive. In his op-ed, Baker wrote "If, under the pressure of internal Democratic politics and global public opinion, the Biden administration forces a 'cease-fire' that leaves our closest ally in the region short of victory over an enemy that seeks to destroy it, sooner or later we shall all pay the price." It's time to revisit George W. Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress on Sept. 20, 2001. It's required that we remind ourselves of one of its most important paragraphs. In talking about who committed the atrocities of 9/11, President Bush identified al-Qa'ida as "a collectio
