If you want to watch an evisceration of a politician on live TV, watch Hugh Hewitt's total evisceration of Tim Wal . This is a total mismatch. Anyone thinking that Tim Walz has the mental capacity to match wits with Hugh Hewitt is living in Wonderland. Hugh told Molly Line that hearing Tim Walz's excuses sounded like "Watching Governor Walz dance, since he first started to get questions about this story, has been amusing because it's the old, it's not my dog. It didn't bite you. Besides, you kicked it first. And every time, it's really a different excuse every time it goes in front of the cameras. It was Covid. We had no guardrails. We lacked a toolkit. President Trump is exaggerating. The acting U.S. attorney, who's, by the way, a career federal prosecutor until October, is making it worse than it really is. We're going to fix it. Just don't believe them. Pay no attention. Right now, Molly, it's a story that is growing faster -- and this wi...

First off, here's wishing you Christians the merriest of Christmases. May this season of revelations bring great joy to you. Next, to the Jewish people, God's chosen people, may this season of lights bring you great joy and new understanding of our Lord. Each year at Christmastime, I turn to Luke ch. 2 to read the Christmas story. I ALWAYS read the Christmas story of Luke Ch. 2 in the King James Version, aka KJV, because it uses "the King's English." On such a royal night when Christ left Heaven to live amongst us (Immanuel, God with us), it's only fitting that we read the greatest story ever told in the version that uses the King's English. The Christ's Story Luke Ch. 2, KJV The Birth of Christ And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. And so it wa...

I'd love to meet Jackson Purfeerst, Crosslake's mayor, sometime. He sounds like a guy who isn't afraid to take on difficult fights. Mayor Purfeerst wrote a letter that's turned into an indictment of Tim Walz's and the DFL Trifecta's budget. Alpha News reported "Crosslake Mayor Jackson Purfeerst released a video and letter signed by 98 Minnesota mayors Monday morning urging state leaders to 'course-correct' and 'stop taxing our families, seniors, and businesses out of Minnesota.'" Alpha News then quoted Mayor Purfeerst as saying "What makes this moment historic is that a letter of this nature has never been done before. This coalition of 98 mayors represents roughly 541,000 Minnesotans from both metro communities and Greater Minnesota. That measure of agreement is extraordinarily rare and should not be taken lightly. Over the past several weeks, mayors across Minnesota have been having the same difficult conversations about budgets...

Saying that Minnesota is a state in turmoil is understatement. Alpha News is reporting that "Crosslake Mayor Jackson Purfeerst released a video and letter signed by 98 Minnesota mayors Monday morning urging state leaders to 'course-correct' and 'stop taxing our families, seniors, and businesses out of Minnesota.'" Further, it reported "What makes this moment historic is that a letter of this nature has never been done before,' said Purfeerst. 'This coalition of 98 mayors represents roughly 541,000 Minnesotans from both metro communities and Greater Minnesota. That measure of agreement is extraordinarily rare and should not be taken lightly.'" The average size of these cities and towns is 5,500. Crosslake's population is 2,412 as of 2024. More important is the fact that cities of all categories are included in this letter. This isn't just a report. Potentially, it's a report of a future populist uprising. Further, this uprisi...

Predictably, Tim Walz has started a spin offensive about the fraud scandal gripping Minnesota. The question now is whether the spin is more offensive than spin. Last Thursday and Friday, Gov. Walz and Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Thompson held competing press availabilities. On Thursday, Thompson said "The fraud is not small. It isn’t isolated. The magnitude cannot be overstated." Thompson also called the fraud "industrial-scale fraud." It isn't surprising that Gov. Walz felt the need to fight back, saying "You’re seeing a weaponization. We’ll continue to fix (the fraud). They’re going to continue to come up with numbers that don’t have it there, and it’s sensationalized. I don’t expect anything different from this administration." Minnesota Reformer is reporting "State Medicaid Director John Connolly told reporters that the Department of Human Services has evidence that substantiates fraud totaling tens of millions in these programs to date, not ...

On Friday, Tim Walz, Minnnesota's DFL governor, held this press availability about Minnesota's "industrial-scale fraud" crisis. In one part of the availability, Gov. Walz said "Nobody...nobody in the legislature on the GOP side is interested in solving this. My God, it would be the worst thing in the world for them if we were to solve this thing early like we're doing." This is what I'd consider a big shiny distraction or deflection. First, intentionally built into Gov. Walz's statement is the inference that Minnesota's "industrial-scale fraud" is getting fixed. That's fiction. It isn't reality. Next, also built into the statement is the illusion that a legislative solution is required. Back eons ago, Joe Biden emphatically insisted that fixing the border required comprehensive immigration reform. A month after President Trump took office and after he started enforcing this nation's immigrations laws, the border invasi...
