Michele Tafoya earns major law enforcement endorsement

Alpha News reports that "The largest association of law enforcement officers in Minnesota has endorsed Republican Michele Tafoya for U.S. Senate over Democrat Peggy Flanagan." In their letter to Tafoya announcing their endorsement, the Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association, aka the MPPOA, wrote "This endorsement reflects our strong confidence in your leadership, character, and steadfast commitment to public safety. The men and women who serve in communities throughout our state deeply appreciate your dedication to ensuring their safety and the safety of the citizens they protect."

This is a significant endorsement because it tells the people of Minnesota that their families will be protected. It tells small businesses, especially retail shops, that crime won't steal their profits. That, in turn, permits the industry to invest in growing the business instead of FORCING THEM to spend money protecting their assets, whether it's buildings, people or equipment. Money that isn't spent on protecting can be spent on growing the business.

The MPPOA endorsement tells society that an important sector of society is stable. The greater the societal stability, the more businesses can afford to risk.

Reacting to MPPOA’s endorsement, Tafoya said "supporting the men and women who put their lives on the line to keep our communities safe with the tools, resources, and respect they need is not optional — it is basic common sense."

"Career politicians have spent years pushing policies that made our streets less safe and left Minnesotans feeling unsafe in their own neighborhoods. It’s time to get back to normal and put adults back in charge who will stand with law enforcement and restore public safety," she added.

Whether it's theft through fraud, the high cost of violent crime and the stability throughout society that build healthy, vibrant communities.
Michele Tafoya wins MPPOA endorsement.

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...
