Is Peggy Flanagan a liberal racist?

After reading this Alpha News article, it's pretty obvious that Peggy Flanagan has a racial problem. Alpha News reported "In the days following George Floyd’s death in 2020, Flanagan did an interview with NPR where she said, 'We’ve got a really incredible state — if you’re white. If you are a person of color, if you are indigenous, if you are an immigrant or refugee, the opposite is true.'" That's pretty explicit racism. The Minnesota I've lived in all of my 70 years gets along with everyone that obeys the law.

Later in the article:

Later in that same NPR interview, Flanagan said Minnesota "has been built' on 'white supremacy' and 'unless we tackle it in a really aggressive way, we are not going to see the systematic change that we need."
Lt. Gov. Flanagan apparently sees everything through a racial lens. Saying that we need to tackle racism "in a really aggressive way" is itself acccusing Minnesotans of being racist. If you aren't racist, what's the need for tackling racism "in a really aggressive way"? If we're such a racist nation, how did she hook up with Tim Walz? Check this out:

The following year, Flanagan issued a lengthy public statement in response to the shooting of Daunte Wright in Brooklyn Center. Wright was shot and killed in April of 2021 by a police officer who mistook her firearm for her Taser during a traffic stop. In her statement reacting to Wright’s death, Flanagan said, "I am grappling with the stark reality: Minnesota is a place where it is not safe to be Black."

The statement went on to call for "rethinking policing and rethinking crowd control when people express righteous and justifiable outrage that our state is not safe for Black people. What is abundantly clear is that this is our reputation, and this is our shame," she continued.

It's clear that Lt. Gov. Flanagan thinks often about racism. Her opponent, Michele Tafoya, is Hispanic. Tafoya rarely talks about her ethnicity. That's how normal people think. They dom't think like Lt. Gov. Flanagan.

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...
