Is MnSCU officially dying before our eyes?

For more than a decade, I've known that MnSCU, aka Minnesota State Colleges and Universities, had poor leadership. After reading this article, it's indisputable that they've consumed too much of the PC Kool-Aid. According to the article, "Administrators at Hennepin Technical College, a member of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities, informed staff members who teach law enforcement courses of the change in a recent email. "One of the changes is that law enforcement has to be taken out of everything,' the email reads. 'Meaning the website, business cards, sign out front, directional signs to the building and so on.' The email specifies that the Minnesota State system is requiring Hennepin Tech and other affected schools to pay for the change themselves."

Forget about enrollment in MnSCU law enforcement programs. Those enrollment numbers will plummet as a result of this decision. According to the article, "These changes stem from recommendations made in February 2021 by Minnesota State’s 'Taskforce on Law Enforcement Education Reform,' which was convened in August 2020 after the death of George Floyd. Minnesota State says it educates 86% of Minnesota’s law enforcement officers in various programs across its 54 campuses. These programs are being completely revamped, according to a report issued by the task force." It continues:

The report identifies "creating anti-racist law enforcement education programs" as one of the top objectives. "Rename Minnesota State Law Enforcement Programs to Peace Officer Training Programs," one of the recommendations in the report says. The report also calls for removing "paramilitary language from all law enforcement education programs, courses and training."
MnSCU's woke culture sends the wrong message to parents and potential students. Compare this training with the MnSCU email:

Training people for law enforcement situations is entirely different than teaching students how to be PC police. Further, why would anyone want to pursue a law enforcement career knowing that society isn't taking this seriously?

The emphasis on “anti-racism” will apply to teacher training and continuing education courses, too.

"All continuing education offerings will address cultural competency, social and political oppression, and racism and will incorporate examination of implicit and explicit bias over the course of an officer’s career," says one of the report’s recommendations.

Finally, there's this:
Another source with insider knowledge of the situation told Alpha News that law enforcement course instructors were told the phrase "law enforcement" is "triggering" to certain people.
That's true. They're called criminals.

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...
