Peggy Flanagan loses it in public

It's apparent that Peggy Flanagan doesn't have the temperament to be a senator. According to this rep[orting, "Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan initially slammed President Donald Trump for off-color remarks about Minnesota’s Somali community, telling CNN he wants to "distract" the public from cost-of-living increases." Then she went off the deep end, saying "Trump chose the Laken Riley Act as the first bill of his administration for one reason: He wanted to legitimize his mass deportation agenda." Hint to Lt. Gov. Flanagan: President Trump doesn't need anything to legitimize deportations, mass or otherwise. That's because it's federal law. Hint II: you don't have to legitimize enforcing the law.

Lt. Gov. Flanagan wasn't finished losing it. After that, Lt. Gov. Flanagan lost it, criticizing Angie Craig, her primary opponent for the soon-to-be open U.S. Senate seat, saying "Respectfully, Congresswoman, you voted with Republicans to strip due process from immigrants and to praise Trump's ICE. This year. Now you're upset?" It's important to remember that early fights between Democrats don't mean much. Generally speaking, they 'kiss-and-make-up' before the election. What's insulting is how Lt. Gov. Flanagan tries whitewashing her role in the fraud issue:

Then her spokesperson had the audacity to say this:
"[Flanagan] has repeatedly spoken out against fraud in the state, saying it's ‘unconscionable that people are stealing from families and children’," Fetissoff said.
Who cares what she's said? I don't. I care about what she's done! Jeff Johnson, the gubernatorial candidate I'm privileged to manage, is a man of action. As a member of the St. Cloud City Council, Councilman Jeff fought for transparency with regards to primary refugee resettlement. Initially, Lutheran Social Services said no. Next, they told Councilman Jeff what happened at the meetings. Councilman Jeff persisted further. Eventually, Councilman Jeff was invited to attend the planniung meetings. That's the difference betweeen a dime-a-dozen politician and a populist man of the people. If elected, Jeff will fix the fraud fiasco.

Peggy Flanagan is just another dime-a-dozen career politician. If you write what she's supposed to say, she'll recite her lines just fine. If you ask her to get off-script, she'll look like a deer in the headlights.

Minnesota fraud gets national attention

Image
The Walz administration is getting nationwide attention, though it isn't the type of attention political administrations typically seek. Sohrab Ahmari didn't bury the lede when he wrote "There is no whitewashing this scandal: segments of the Somali community in Minneapolis have been engaged in systematic welfare fraud, and used some of the proceeds to fund the Al-Shabaab terror group in their homeland." Imagine the Outrage If... Imagine the outrage if "Hassan and her alleged co-conspirators recruited Somali parents’ children into autism therapy services — even if a child did not have an autism diagnosis — facilitating fraudulent claims. Parents reportedly received monthly kickbacks ranging from $300 to $1,500 per child, with some allegedly threatening to go to other fraud networks unless their rates were increased." It doesn't end there: Sure enough, both the number of autism providers and the rate of diagnosis have ballooned, with Somali activists insi...

Jaylani Hussein's phobia of whites?

A frequent reader of this blog sent me a picture showing gubernatorial candidate Jeff Johnson surrounded by Somalis following a November 2017 St. Cloud City Council meeting. This is that picture: Recently, a different frequent reader of this blog sent me a letter highlighting Jaylani Hussein's paranoia of white people: We are asking every member of our community to stay vigilant. If you see threats, harassment, or hateful content online, especially targeting Somali or Muslim communities in Minnesota, please report them immediately to CAIR-Minnesota and local authorities. We are tracking these developments closely. What’s happening: Our community is under coordinated attack In the last 48 hours, former President Donald Trump announced that he will immediately end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Somali immigrants in Minnesota, a move that could tear families apart and send people back to a country they haven’t seen in decades. He justified this dangerous decision using false, I...

Proof that Tim Walz doesn't care about fraud or other crime

Image
Anyone that thinks that Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, doesn't care about preventing crime or fraud hasn't read this article . Alpha News is reporting that "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) has confirmed that Dylan Adams, the fiscal policy analyst caught on video vandalizing Teslas in Minneapolis, is still employed by the state — meaning Minnesota taxpayers are footing the bill for his salary. In response to Alpha News inquiries, a DHS spokesperson said: "Dylan Adams is a current employee." Apparently, the Walz administration doesn't care that it's employing a vandal in its Department of Human Services. As for whether Adams "has faced consequences for racking up more than $21,000 in damage during work hours , the agency offered little transparency. 'No public data exists with respect to disciplinary action,' the spokesperson said." This reminds me of the old phrase I coined, which says 'It's impossible to...
