Donald Trump picks a fight in TX

Dustin Grage reports "Again, Ken Paxton was never in any real danger of losing in November. Now, MAGA Inc. has come in with a $10 million ad reservation to ensure this seat stays in Republican hands. The NRSC should be throwing money at this seat as well. But if they don’t have to, I hope they use those resources to expand the map. Michigan and Minnesota are in play."

Michigan and Minnesota are in play, almost to the point where I'd move them from leans Democrat to toss-up. I won't go farther than that YET but Democrats have lost their momentum in both states.

This is why I'm optimistic about Minnesota: I'll admit that I'm being optimistic but a significant portion of that optimism has to do with the gap in the quality of GOP candidates vs. the dearth of talent on the DFL (DSA?) side. The DFL (DSA?) candidatesare skilled at reciting their prepared lines. They're worthless at thinking on their feet. Michele Tafoya, Lisa Demuth and Ron Schutz are quick-witted and prepared to handle anything. Lisa Demuth:

Michele Tafoya:

It's a shame that Trump primaried John Cornyn. Cornyn would be ahead by 10-15 points right now. Still, we are where we are so we'll deal with it. Let's hope Trump doesn't let his grudges cloud his judgment.

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...
