What was Mike Lindell thinking?

When Mike Lindellproposed amnesty for illegal aliens, he set off a firestorm for the ages. The question quickly turned to why Lindell put the issue on his priority list in the first place. Congress, not governors, set immigration and naturalization policy.This issue isn't in the top 50 of issues for Minnesota's future. I just visited Lindell's campaign website platform page. Let's just say that he's cpompertitive with Sen. Klobuchar in talking in platitudes while saying nothing.

For instance, on the subject of "Jobs and Minnesota's Economy," he wrote "Mike Lindell knows the economy runs on real people—Moms juggling schedules, business owners signing paychecks, professors shaping the next generation, urban church leaders holding communities together, young workers chasing a first big opportunity, and farmers betting everything on the next season. He built a national brand from a Minnesota factory floor, so when he sees bureaucracy slowing everything down, his instinct is to fix it fast and clear the way. As governor, he will throw Minnesota’s doors wide open for business with faster permits, simpler rules, and a clear path to hire, build, and grow in every part of the state."

There's nothing in there about cutting taxes, eliminating unfunded mandates or cutting regulations. As a voter, I'm not supposed to guess at his plans.

What's startling to me is what's missing entirely from Lindell's platform. What's missing is any mention of Lindell's plan for stopping fraud. How do you miss addressing the highest-profile issue in Minnesota? As for property taxes, he isn't for fixing them! This is what he said:
Mike will move to put real brakes on runaway property tax hikes by limiting annual increases, providing direct relief for seniors, veterans, and family farms, and shifting more of the education burden to the state so local boards aren’t pressured to keep raising levies.
That isn't fixing property taxes. That's how you dodge fixing property taxes. If you don't stop unfunded mandates, property taxes will continue increasing. Period.

Mike Lindell is a DEI endorsee. He isn't qualified for the job. Kendall Qualls and Lisa Demuth would hit the ground running if elected.

Kendall Quall's big mistake

Image
A loyal reader of this blog just sent me a screenshot touting Kendall Qualls. The screenshot is short on truth. What it lacks in truth, it makes up for in fiction. Here's Kendall's fiction: Kendall Qualls should be ashamed for spewing this BS. First, Qualls knows better than this. Jeff Johnson and Lisa Demuth have both confirmed that they're abiding by the Convention's endorsement. This appears to be Qualls attempting to be something he isn't. While I'm not disputing whether Mr. Qualls will abide by the endorsement, I'm calling BS that he's THE ONLY GOP CANDIDATE who will abide by the endorsement. This brings into question whether Mr. Qualls is willing to say anything to win. We don't need another candidate who'll put together fiction to win. We've had too many candidates who fit that description throughout the years. Next, we need people who fit J.C. Watts' description of character. Watts said that "the definition of character is d...

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...
