Kelly Morrison debates Tad Jude in only open House seat in Minnesota

The DFL is running another cookie-cutter socialist for the open seat in MN-03. CD-3 is home to some of the richest neighborhoods in Minnesota. Almanac moderator/anchor Eric Eskola explained that "we call this a debate but it's more like a conversation, no stopwatches, no opening or closing statements, no coin flips, no short straws so let's get going."

The second question asked by the moderator was "How will you vote on the tax cuts that went into effect not so long ago?" After Tad Jude said that he'd vote for extending the tax cuts, Morrison jumped in and said "We need a tax policy that works for all Minnesotans. What we don't need are tax cuts for billionaires and hedge fund managers." While that's typical DFL talking points material, it isn't that bright.

What happens when tax hikes drive companies into China or other nations? How does that affect supply chains? Would a 28% corporate tax rate chase companies that are part of important supply chains pick up and move? After all, capital is mobile. If these companies' upper management have a fiduciary duty, why would we think that they'd give Minnesota a home state discount? The debate starts at the 27:15 mark of this video:

Morrison later insisted that she's a moderate DFLer who's worked with people on both sides of the aisle. That might be true but she's still a hardcore progressive. Check this out:

Voting to cripple Minnesota's supply chains while voting to limit parents' rights isn't my idea of moderation. That's what I'd characterize as extremism.

We don't need another DFL cookie-cutter economic illiterate in the legislature or in Congress. We need people who won't hesitate in fighting for productive policies that produce prosperity. In 2023, Kelly Morrison showed her true self by voting for every major spending increase and controversial bill that dramatically changed social policy. Minnesota doesn't need another extremist operating like a programmed machine. Lately, that's who the DFL seems to run.

Minnesotans deserve better than that. We've already gotten disgraced by Lying Tim Walz on the national stage. We don't need another DFL politician who increases spending by 40% in a single year, who raises taxes while Minnesota has its biggest projected surplus ($19,000,000,000). Sen. Morrison spent like a drunken sailor while doing whatever the DFL told her to do. That isn't a moderate. That's an extremist.

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...
