DFL proposes Universal Basic Income for illegal aliens

Earlier this session, the DFL legislature proposed a bill that would've made Minnesota a sanctuary state. Thankfully, that bill was stopped. The DFL is nothing if not persistent. They've given up on that initiative (for now). Instead of that, the DFL is pushing a bill that would "establish a pilot program" that "would sprinkle $100,000,000 across the state in the form of no less than $500 monthly payments to certain low-income Minnesotans, including illegal aliens."

Alpha News is reporting that "Rep. Athena Hollins, DFL-St. Paul, introduced HF2666 last year. The bill didn’t receive a hearing amidst a historic legislative session where Democrats spent down a $17.5 billion surplus and increased the state budget by more than 38 percent. But with news earlier this month that the state has a projected $3.7 billion surplus, Hollins’ bill received a hearing in the House Children and Families Committee." This is the Trifecta at work.

Here's the DFL 'villain' this time:

Walter Hudson offers his opinion on the bill: If you weren't infuriated already, you will be after this report:

According to Fox9's reporting, 300% of the Federal Poverty Level, aka FPL, is "the median income, meaning that half of Minnesota" would be eligible for this 'income.' This is insanity on steroids times 50. The DFL must know that it isn't possible to sustain this for very long.

First, this is just a "pilot program", meaning that the DFL intends for this welfare program to grow. Giving $100,000,000 away at the rate of $500 a month for 18 months means that approximately 10,000 people would initially be eligible for this welfare program. The American Dream isn't based on giving people money. It's built upon principles of competition, innovation and hard work. Athena Hollins' bill incorporates none of those principles.

It's time to light up the DFL's phone lines at the Capitol until this program is killed and put into its grave once-and-for-all. Next, it's essential that we elect capitalists. It's time to eliminate anti-American socialists like Rep. Hollins. Why would we want a society based on giving money away vs. a society built on innovation, productivity and hard work?

A society that's built on not valuing innovation, productivity and hard work won't prioritize a society that's safe, either.

Is Joe Biden our Grifter-in-Chief?

Apparently, Joe Biden doesn't care about the law or Supreme Court rulings. When asked about the ruling on his student loan bailout, Biden said that the Supreme Court misinterpreted the Constitution. He knows they didn't. That's just what he said to preserve the opportunity to introduce his next unconstitutional plan that will get rejected by the Supreme Court. This isn't about whether it's constitutional. It's about whether he can con enough young people into voting for him in 2024. Biden must've anticipated this ruling. Within an hour of the ruling, the Administration was out with this detailed fact sheet to replace the plan that he knew would fail. It opens with the same partisan attack as Democrats have mouthed. The fact sheet opens by saying "No President has fought harder for student debt relief than President Biden, and he’s not done yet. President Biden and Vice President Harris will not let Republican elected officials succeed in denying hard

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

Maria Bartiromo's interrogation of Gov. Ron DeSantis

Image
Yesterday, Maria Bartiromo interrogated Gov. Ron DeSantis on Sunday Morning Futures. The first half of the interview, Bartiromo asked policy questions. Gov. DeSantis showed his understanding of the issues and presented his solutions on everything from China, inflation and growing the economy. The first reply he had was to cut spending. His next reply was to open energy production. Third, he talked about the importance of increasing productivity, which he correctly said is the best way to eliminate inflation. A little over half the way through the interview, though, it turned into an attack. Bartiromo asked "I'm wondering what's going on with your campaign. There was a lot of optimism about you running for president earlier in the year but here's this weekend's headline from the Politico Playbook: Failure to launch. Gov. Ron DeSantis's campaign to topple Donald Trump has stalled. We are way behind says a top DeSantis PAC official. What happened? Despite that bad
