Tim Walz isn't serious about special session

Anyone that thinks that Gov. Tim Walz is interested in finding solutions to Minnesota's violence problem is a blithering idiot. If Tim Walz is serious, he would've brought GOP and DFL legislators together to talk about the things that contribute to the evil that swept through Minneapolis last week. I'm not interested in fixing just the shooting at Annunciation Catholic Church, though that's definitely part of the discussion.

During his interview with Harris Faulkner, which I wrote about here, House Majority Whip Tom Emmer said that "Murderapolis is back." That isn't a compliment to Minneapolis or the DFL. Emmer then said "You had 6 people killed last week -- I mean this week -- and you've got 44 killed this year.

It's essential to remember that Minneapolis is the place where the Democrats' Defund-the-Police movement started. Minneapolis is where the 'Summer-of-Love-Riots' started, too. Minneapolis, aka Murderapolis, is a thoroughly screwed up city without any relief in sight. Let's return to the 'Walz doesn't respect Republicans' storyline. Walter Hhudson expressed the GOP's thoughts pretty well in this tweet:

The key part of Walter's tweet:
"Bringing in legislators from all over the state, taking them away from their jobs and families, with no concrete achievable plan for what to do in that session, is precisely the sort of disrespect I've come to expect from Tim Walz."
In this news report from Fox9 News, Murderapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said that "the numbers of murders are unacceptable":

Minneapolis isn't just about murders. It's about carjackings, too. It's about an understaffed, dispirited police force, too.

Has Sue Ek come face-to-face with DFL hijinks?

Apparently, Minnesota state and county employees aren't that attentive to details. Last night, a frequent reader of this blog sent me a statement from House Speaker-designate Lisa Demuth, R-Cold Spring ." She issued the following statement regarding vote tabulation errors, malfunctions, and discrepancies that have taken place in Sherburne and Scott Counties: The errors and discrepancies we've seen this cycle are intolerable and unacceptable. A free and fair election demands sunlight on the process. These incidents fuel distrust and raise questions about the integrity and accuracy of election results. Without an opportunity to observe or respond Sherburne County added newly-found votes to the total. Just a day later, Scott County announced an unspecified "ballot distribution error" and "ballot scanning malfunction" that triggered an abrupt re-scan of more than 20,000 ballots. There was less than two hours notice between the public announcement and the be...

Tim Walz doubling down on Gestapo speech

Image
When Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, delivered the commencement address for the University of Minnesota Law school, he didn't deliver the typical commencement speech. He delivered a highly partisan speech instead. Gov. Walz compared "federal law enforcement agents implementing President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown to a Nazi-era political police force." He called ICE agents Gestapo. Let's compare the 2. The Gestapo's mission was to rid Germany of Jews. To the Gestapo, it didn't matter that these Jews were German citizens and had been decades. Thanks to the Aryan Clauses, Jews were considered subhuman and weren't really Germans. That's an awfully racist viewpoint. Is Gov. Walz accusing law enforcement officers of being racists? I.C.E. I.C.E. agents enforce laws that bipartisan majorities in both houses of Congress have passed and that the president has signed. These immigration bills were negotiated between the 2 parties. The Aryan Clau...

BREAKING NEWS: counterfeit ballot alert in Minnesota

How Difficult Should it be to Get a Ballot? By John W. Palmer November 4, 2024 Securing an official ballot for your ward and precinct normally requires registration to vote and either showing up at a polling place or securing an absentee ballot. Ballot security is a cornerstone of an election free of fraud. When the tailgate of a vehicle was left open and unattended revealing a large stack of blank ballots, Minnesotans were appalled. Imagine how you would feel when you learn that all it takes to get a reproducible ballot for your ward and precinct is to download a file from a government website. In Stearns and several other Minnesota counties, imagination is not needed. Right now, all you have to do is go to Minnesota’s Secretary of State’s website and download a file. Go to this website and select “Get a sample ballot”. Then enter your zip code and address and your ballot appears. Now you are able to download the ballot as a PDF file. Once you have the PDF file you can print as many ...
