Amy Klobuchar is silent about helping students

Apparently, Sen. Amy Klobuchar needs to get permission from Education Minnesota to see if it's ok to help K-12 students. Sen. Klobuchar is running for governor for Minnesota, a job that REQUIRES decision-making skills. This is different from Sen. Klobuchar's question-ducking skill. Apparently, Sen. Klobuchar's question-ducking ability is greater than her decision-making ability.

According to the article, "Sen. Amy Klobuchar, a candidate for Minnesota governor, is silent on whether she would opt Minnesota into a federal tax credit program that could generate millions of new dollars for the state’s K-12 students.

Why is she silent? According to the article, "Last year, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act created a federal tax credit which gives individuals a dollar-for-dollar reduction in their federal tax bill up to $1,700. In order to qualify for the tax credit, a taxpayer must donate to a scholarship-granting organization (SGO)." The money doesn't come out of a state's general fund. It comes from private citizens who get a tax credit when they contribute to a scholarship fund.

Word is that Education Minnesota doesn't like this because people might apply for scholarhips to send their children to private or parochial schools.

The America First Policy Institute (AFPI) has estimated that opting in would generate $810 million over three years for Minnesota students if a modest number of state taxpayers used the tax credit. Failure to opt in would mean all of that potential money goes elsewhere.

Meanwhile, the Minnesota Department of Education has said the program incentivizes enrollment outside public schools, and Democrats have claimed the tax credit is essentially a school voucher program that benefits private schools at the expense of public schools.

Education can't handle that modest bit of competition? That's pathetic! The quality of Education Minnesota's education product must really be pathetic if it can't stand that little competition. The DFL doesn't have a problem funding NPOs and NGOs where fraud runs rampant:

They just hate private citizens contributing to scholarship funds. Apparently, Sen. Klobuchar hates that, too. QUESTION: Why is Sen. Klobuchar afraid of competition? Why is the DFL afraid of competition? Is it because the DSA insists on controlling competition? Shame on Sen. Klobuchar for being just another plantation slave for Education Minnesota.+

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

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...

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...
