DFL is selling affordability. I'm NOT buying

Amy Klobuchar just posted this ridiculous tweet, saying "Democrats are standing together to lower costs, transform our government, and deliver results for Minnesotans!" This is proof that the DFL thinks of us as blithering idiots. Each of these DFL women in the federal government voted for the biggest bill in U.S. history, aka the American Rescue Plan. Each of them voted multiple times for the bailout of Obamacare, too. Obamacare, you'll recall, was supposed to lower health insurance premiums. That hasn't happened since 2010, the year it was passed.

While Lt. Gov. Flanagan didn't vote for the American Rescue plan because that's a federal bill, she definitely delighted in spending the money that bill sent to the states. In 2023, Minnesota had a projected surplus of $18,000,000,000. That was less than a year after the 9.1% inflation under Biden in July, 2022.

Rather than keeping the Walz-Flanagan ticket promise of sending $2,000 Walz Checks to Minnesotans, Walz and Flanagan spent most of the $18,000,000,000 projected surplus. Then they raised va0rious taxes and fees an additional $10,000,000,000. Craig, Flanagan, Klobuchar and Smith are spendaholics with the track records to verify that statement. Notice, too, that the DFL said costs, not prices. Those are exceptionally different things.

If you subsidize health insurance premiums but the subsidy and the actual premium stay the same, the cost hasn't changed. The price on yourr bill might've dropped but the cost remained the same. At this press availability, Gov. Walz admitted that shutting down government "decimated our economy":

Gov. Walz, at the time, took pride in establishing a snitch line to snitch on your neighbors who didn't obey Gov. Walz's dictatorial proclamations. These ladies stayed silent. I'm not surprised. Profiles in courage doesn't fit these women's profiles. Are YOU ready to give them a promotion? I'd rather retire them so they can't do more harm to Minnesota.

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...
