After a senseless tragedy, people – almost invariably conservatives – are told to never, ever dare to “politicize” it [1]

46 year old Anthony Nephew of Duluth apparently politicized his family’s tragedy for us over the weekend, murdering his wife and son, his ex-partner and son, and checking himself out afterward.

According to the London Daily Mail (far and away the best rouce for Minnesota news that doesn’t kiss the DFL’s ass):

[Nepohew] also appeared increasingly concerned about the prospect of a Trump-led government.

‘My mental health and the world can no longer peacefully coexist, and a lot of the reason is religion,’ he said in July.

‘I am terrified of religious zealots inflicting their misguided beliefs on me and my family. I have intrusive thoughts of being burned at the stake as a witch, or crucified on a burning cross.

‘Having people actually believe that I or my child are Satan or, the anti-Christ or whatever their favorite color of boogie man they are afraid are this week.’

He had also accused Republicans of ‘making it harder for women to leave’ domestic violence relationships, writing ‘Gilead here we come.’ 

Gilead is an apparent reference to the Handmaid’s Tale, a dystopian republic which overthew the United States and stripped away women’s rights.

 

Huh. So you mean a decade of saying a political candidate is the plague makes the least stable among us think he’s…a plague?

[1] Spurious references to Naziism and Fascism apparently excepted.

Governor Walz came back to Minnesota late last week. 

And at a rally – is that the right word? – in Eagan, he started the process of…

Speaking for myself?

Govenor, you called me and half this state “Nazis”. 

You will never be my “neighbor”.  There will be no forgiveness.

More generally?  Call me cynical, but no, he’s not extending an olve branch. He’s rebooting – from two years of absolute power (“When you have political capital, you use it!” was his line when the trifecta started its ravages) to trying to set the stage for having to convince Repblicans to work with him.

And, if I may be even more cynical, to set himself up as the plucky, peace-seeking victim when they shoot down his agenda in total.

And just to be clear – the MN GOP had better shoot down the Walz/DFL agenda like Capone’s guys bouncing the rubble of Bugsy Moran’s crew at the Valentine’s Day Massacre.  We’ve waited a long time to be shown an alternative.  It’s time. 

After being called a “Nazi”, a “misogynist”, a “fascist” and a “Racist”, it’s hard not to indulge in a little schadenfreud. 

Maybe a lot.

And when God throws an opportunity like this in your way, who am I to argue?

A licenced “poiltical analyst”, last Tuesday before the results started rolling in:

I asked the universe – there has to be an “after” video.

And the universe answered:

In addition to misogyny and racism, she blamed “Republicans moving to urban areas” .

That’s right – she’s the only “expert” in the US who hasn’t heard of the “Great Sort”. 

Election Week Bonus:  Other progs predictions, saved for posterity (click for a very long thread):

Trump won. Perhaps you saw it in the papers.

So now what?

David Strom’s got the prescription at HotAir. One of a huge list of pullquotes:

Trump didn’t run to be a modest correction to the status quo, and he didn’t win because of any particular policy proposal. He won because a majority of Americans are disgusted by our establishment and how it has abused us. 

Trump has a mandate. He must use it to remake the power structure in society. 

Squishy Republicans in the House and Senate will hem and haw, squirm and squeal, and they will speak of caution and the midterms. 

Don’t let them betray the millions of Americans who genuinely voted for the Trump Vance Musk Kennedy Shanahan Ramaswamy team. You don’t assemble a dream team to play T-ball. 

 Bureaucrats must be fired. The military leadership must be changed. The Department of Education should be axed. The FBI should be moved out of Washington. Entire agencies should be ejected from Washington and dispersed to the states. Anthony Fauci should be investigated, and when it is proven he committed perjury before Congress he should be jailed. 

It’s time to clean the Augean stables, drain the swamp, or whatever metaphor you like to use for cleaning up a huge mess. It’s not just the policies that were bad; the entire system has been corrupted and must be replaced. If a #resistance exists, as it did in Trump’s first term, it must be rooted out and destroyed. 

 

Trump’s first win reminded me of Jesse Ventura – nobody, least of all he, expected it. He governed creditably – even estimably – but there was the impression he was winging it.

Not this time. It can’t go that way. 

Burn the swamp. 

Because to borrow a phrase – I’m not going back.

Elliot Engen is a young hotshot on the MNGOP bench. He just won his second term representing HD36A.

It wasn’t long ago that the DFL was trying to get a jump start on his political obituary:

He deleted the tweet – like, in the last hour or so – but the internet never sleeps:f

Tuesday’s results:

• Engen:  54.07%
• Janelle Calhoun (shouldn’t that be Janelle Mka Ska?):  45.83%

I don’t get to spike a lot of balls, but I’m spiking the ball. 

While I don’t endorse Bono’s threat to “drive a car off a cliff” after a Trump election, nor Rob Reiner’s to “set himself on fire” (and doubt Cher get a bullet into her head with all her various, uh, augmentation), I do believe that if Trump plans to be a “dictator”, one useful act would be to make sure the celebs who promised to “move to Canada” and/or “leave the US” if Donald Trump were elected to actually deliver on it.

One of my biggest beeves with Donald Trump over the past four years has been the cult of personality around him – the wave of Scaramuccis and Loomers and other camp followers more partial to chanting points than issues.

But the Democrats tried to out-cult the cult.  Kamala Harris was a terrible candidate who ran a vapid campaign wrapped round brat vibes, Instagram moments and “Joy”. 

It was the Trump camp that ran on issues:

But this election, despite how the propaganda press tried to frame it, was not mostly about Donald Trump. The New York Times is at it again this morning, talking about Trump’s “cult of personality.” But Trump didn’t run on personality, he ran on the issues. He talked relentlessly and effectively about inflation, the border, and war and peace. True, he digressed more than some of us would have preferred, but his policy messages came through loud and clear.

It was the Democrats who tried to run on the cult of personality. The record of the Biden/Harris administration was indefensible, so they didn’t try to defend it. Harris avoided talking about the issues as much as possible, going so far, on multiple occasions, as to refuse to say what her position on an issue is. She was, as one pundit put it, the “no comment” candidate.

Instead of substance, the Democrats chose to run on personality and identity politics. Vote for Kamala because she is “kind” and “joyful”–never mind that she is such an obnoxious autocrat that she can’t keep a staff together. Also, vote for Kamala because she will be the first woman of color to be president. Whoopee. And most of all, of course, the Democrats tried to run against the personality of Donald Trump.

 

The fact that Trump is in a second term should mean – I hope – that he spikes the ball on those issues over the next four years.

It was 20 years ago when Hugh Hewitt released “If It’s Not Close They Can’t Cheat”.

And he was finally right. 

As this is written, Wednesday morning, Donald Trump has 277 electoral votes nailed down.  Trump could actually get over 300 – as this is written, Michigan, Arizona, Alaska and Nevada and their 35 votes are still up in the air, but trending toward Trump.

The US Senate has flipped, and. might actually get to 56 GOP votes.  

The US House is still very much up in the air, and likely will be for a while, but the GOP has flipped several seats and, as far as I know, lost none.   If I had to bet, I’d say they hold the majority, and the trifecta.  

Speaking of trifectas – the DFL’s is at least hobbled.  As this is written the MN House is tied at 67-67, with a few recounts underway.  I’m not sure what happens with a tied House – Lisa Demuth and Melissa Hortman arm-wrestle for the gavel?  I’m going with Lisa. 

Some good news – Anoka rejected municipal trash.  That is something worth celebrating.

The Piglet is over.

I got home after 2AM.  Posting may be light today.

Crystal K, charter MOB member, has a scathing review of life in Tim Walz’s Minnesota.

Read the whole thing .

There are too many pullquotes to run them all:

Our lives under Harris-Walz could be yours if we don’t vote to stop it.

The good news is that America has been in bad shape before and recovered. Minneapolis was dubbed “Murderapolis” in the 90s, but crime had come down significantly by the end of Republican Tim Pawlenty’s two terms as governor. The gas lines and exploding interest rates of the Carter years led to the Reagan recovery because people were sick of their plummeting standard of living and voted their way out of it.

We can do this. We too can vote our way out of this. We need to do it. My mom can’t work forever, and I will lose the home my husband and I worked so hard for if this doesn’t turn around. Our children, grandchilden and great-grandchildren deserve a future that’s much better than life is now. 

I hear there are about three persuadable people in the country right now. But since my family has lost three Republican men since the last presidential election, I’m hoping to persuade at least three people to vote Republican if they haven’t yet, or if they were planning to sit it out, please don’t. Hungry children and exhausted widows are depending on you. We could use some joy.

 

Fingers crossed.

Not that there’s a lot of doubt – the last Democrat I voted for was in 1996, and that was probably the only one since I voted for my mom in 1984.

But yeah, while Trump isn’t my favorite human on earth, and I wrote in Scott Walker in 2016 and held my nose voting for him in 2020, I’m voting for Trump and Republicans down the ticket for better reasons than usual this time.

1. Because May Lor Xiong, GOP candidate for CD4, actually shows up in the district.
2. Because violent crime, even after “dropping” since 2020, is still up by about a third over 2018.
3. Because there are better ways to reform a police department than gut it.
4. Because unlike earlier crime waves, this time the governments of Minneapolis and Saint Paul think the criminals have a point…
5. …and that you’ve kinda got it coming.
6. To spite everyone in “George Floyd Square”
7. And “Anti”-Fa
8. And the Minnespolis Go-Pro Bros.
9. And all the “pissed off women” trying to turn their emotional instability into a political weapon.
10. For families trying to make it as families in this messed up world .
11. To stick it to Deniece Specht and Randi Weingarten.
12. Because the DFL squandered $19 Billion in “surplus”, which they knew well was not really a surplus in the first place…
13. …and raised taxes 40%
14. Because Governor Piglet passively coddled the rioters in 2020. 
15. Because Gwen and Hope Walz actively supported them. 
16. Because Piglet excused the rioters depredations.
17. Because Ilhan Omar would be tickled pink if Hamas had managed to exterminate all the Jews. 
18. And to whiz on Betty McCollum. 
19. To support the Somali who broke with the DFL last weekend.
20. To show solidarity with the good Republicans of CD8, who over the past few years turned a solid Democrat district into solid Republican territory…
21. …and with the folks in CD7, who won’t send another Democrat to DC for generations.
22. And with the folks in CD1, who have been warning the rest of the nation about Governor Piglet with their votes since he left Congress (they voted for Johnson in 2018 and Jensen in 2022). 
23. Because while I am a forthright non-fan of Donald Trump, he will do much less damage to this nation’s constitutional fabric than Giggles and Piglet.
24. Because Tim Walz ran on “One Minnesota” – and promptly made it clear he was talking a about authoritarian, forced “unity”. 
25. Because Tim Walz lied about the science during Covid, and then covered it up.
26. Because Tim Walz had the worst record of any governor regarding long term care patients…
27. …and nobody dared hold him accountable.
28. Because Walz created a snitch line.
29. And because the DFL enacted a thought-crime database.
30. And the DFL passed a law that protects “attraction to minors” under the MN Human Rights Act. 
31. And while if you are a noncustodial parent who brings your child to Minnesota for a private education, the state will beat you like you owe it money, they will use the State Patrol and the Attorney General’s office to protect your spouse with Munchausens by Proxy, provided they steal your kid to bring them to Minnesota for “gender affirming care” – aka chemical and surgical neutering.
32. To end the “Trifecta”.
33. To make Tim Walz a lame duck, and give his successor – Flanagan?  Hortman? – an uphill road to getting the office.
34. To chastize the local media for letting Piglet skate for 20 years with no scrutiny whatsoever.
35. In the hope of draining the swamp.
36. To persuade all our vacuous, useless celebrities…
37. …and overwrought influencers, to actually follow through on moving to Canada (even though, shhh, Canada doesn’t want them).
38. To drop a Daisy-cutter in the Culture War.
39. Because a Trump victory will put the entire Star Tribune, KARE11, MPR and WCCO newsrooms on Paxil for the next year.  And I’ve got a bunch of Glaxo stock.  #WinWin!
40. Trump believes America is a land of opportunity, not a cesspool of inequity that targets the”outs”
41. I’m voting for Trump because he hasn’t called me a deplorable.
42. Or a bitter, gun-clinging Jeebus freak.
43. Or garbage.
44. Or a Fascist, or a Nazi.
45. And he doesn’t represent people who think men are, as a gender, superflous…
46. …or the enemy. 
47. To show modern academia who’s boss.
48. Because the Electoral College is a vital part of helping a nation full of people that don’t like each other much, actually function.
49. Because the threat of the filibuster helps filter out a lot of bad ideas – it’s what stands between us and being a cold Greece.
50. And because the Supreme Court needs to remain independent of Executive Branch control
51. Because Trump is a meritocrat, who favors rewarding innovation and entrepreneurship…
52. …and Democrats are the opposite of that, always. 
53. I’m voting for Peanut the squirrel.  Because he can’t…
54. …although if he lived in Chicago, Newark or Seven Corners, he probably could.
55. A Harris win will give DEI a new tank of gas.
56. To teach all of our “best and brightest” that they are responsible for their own “safe spaces”.
57. Because Piglet passed a universal gun registration program…
58. …and an “ex-spouse empowerment ” law…
59. …and supported a bill that would have confiscated 2/3 of all firearms in MInnesota in a generation. 
60. And Kamala Harris wants a forced buyback of AR15s…
61. …while condescendingly cooing “nobody’s coming for your guns”.  There are few things I hate more. 
62. For families – which Democrats are trying to subordinate to the state.
63. To stick it to Erin Maye Quade. 
64. While tariffs are a bad idea, Trump used them before to enforce good behavior among other nations. 
65. Because “America First” under Trump means looking out for our interests (not our “social purity”) first. 
66. Because I miss a foreign policy where dictators are afraid of us.
67. Because the border should mean something.
68. And so should citizenship.
69. To start the process of pushing progressives back down the route of their “long walk through the institutions”.
70. To throw a finger at the deep state.
71. To hopefully compel all those celebs and influencers who wannt to “move to Canada if Trump wins” to do it.
72. Because any step toward taking the Minnesota executive branch is a step closer to finding out the truth behind our electoral system.
73. Because under Trump’s first term, the world was a safer place.  The world’s tyrants were legitimately worried about that bump in the night, and showed it.  There’s a reason Putin, Hamas and Xi held their water from 2017-2021. 
74. And there’s a reason 2021 saw the collapse of Afghanistan, 2022 the invasion of Ukraine, and 2023 the invasion of Israel.
75. And there’s a reason Israel and Ukraine are ramping up their efforts now; they’ve been worried about a possible win by Giggles and Piglet.
76. To honor the solidiers of the 1/125 Field Artilllery, who went into the Sandbox without their Command Sergeant Major so Klink could run for Congress.
77. I’m voting against Giggles and PIglet because they think the road to peace in the Middle East is for Israel to let Hamas re-arm and try again. 
78. And because Trump got the Middle East to the brink of peace, and may just finish the job.
79. I’m voting Trump for a free Iran. . God willing.
80. I’m voting Trump so there’s at least a chance the five Americans being held hostage in Gaza right now to come, alive – or ever.
81. Wages grew way faster than inflation under Trump’s first term.  No – way faster.
82. Because Harris wants to replace Equality with Equity.
83. Because Harris wants to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on doling out political patronage to people the Democrats want to vote for them.
84. Because Harris is obsessed with Marxist-style class politics…
85. …and government spending to rectify the non-problem. 
86. Harris promotes a culture of supporting sustained weakness to enabling strength, economically, and in foreign policy terms.
87. Because Harris thinks she and Biden put in a good day’s work with the collapse in Afghanistan. 
88. For the 13 servicepeople killed at Bishops Gate….
89. …and all the Afghans who died trying to get out, and since then (thanks to SmithStCroix).
90. And all the Afghan women who got stuffed back into burquas afterward.
91. Because Harris wants to systematize the view that all imbalances are the result of discrimination.
92. Because the fact that the DNC thought Tim Walz would score votes among regular guys.
93. To spite “White Dudes for Harris” – the worst piece of patronization I can recall ever. 
94. And to mock “the Handmaid’s Tale” and everyone who refers to it. 
95. Because, whatever you think about the slogan, Trump does believe America is great…
96. …and will work on a policy level to keep it that way, and
97. Harris and Walz don’t, and won’t.
98. And that, right there, is all we should need to know. 
99. Because I want to make Orwell fiction again.
100. For my kids, who are trying to create a life in the big world…
101. …and my oldest granddaughter, who spent way too much time locked down in a state of artificial panic…
102. …and so her little sister never had to go through that again to benefit the DFL.
103. For everyone immigrant business person burned out during the riots…
104. …and every business smothered by Piglet’s idiot approach to Covid…
105. …and every cancer patient who died while Piglet locked down clinics…
106. …while opening bars and big box stores. 
107. …and every senior – every grandma and great-grandpa – who died, alone, their families barred by the police from visiting them in their final days.
108. And for my mother, whom I didn’t dare move to Minnesota after her husband died, leaving her in a memory care in North Dakota for six miserable month. 
109. For that alone, I need no more reason.  Fuck Tim Walz, and anyone who puts him on a ticket. 

Two stories emblematic of what tomorrow’s election means:

In New York City, a Marine veteran is on trial for murder for defending innocent bystanders against a man who was very blatantly threatening them:

The city has actively abjured enforcing public order; if you want to crap in public, mug or bully or terrrorize or attack people, close streets, run roughshod over the rights of others, the city could scarcely care less.

Misgender someone?  Exercise “bodily autonony” against Big Pharma? Own an unconventional pet?

Or try to protect innocent bystanders from the breakdown in order?

Suddenly they’re interested. Very, very interested.

There are many things at stake tomorrow. This is a big one.

Remember, when you go to the polls, that this is what our “elites” think the immigration crisis is about:

The borders they will enforce are all cultural.

And if you’re reading this blog, there is likely no trip to Martha’s Vinyard in your future.

New York Magazine’s Olivia Nuzzi gets put on leave for having a “relationship” with RFJ Junior.

In the meantime, Lori Sturdevant, Rochelle Olson, Keri Miller and Esme Murphy have spent the decades (five of them in Sturdevant’s case) all-but-literally sending mash notes to three generations of DFL candidates – and bupkes.

Gotta confess, I didn’t see this coming:

But knowing some of the people involved, and even some recent history, perhaps I should have expected at least some Somali to take umbrage at the sense of entitlement the DFL feels re their votes.

Of course, I’d have to wonder if this endorsement happened after the vast majority of the local Somali population voted early.

Still – if the 5th CD and Minneapolis GOPs can keep this dynamic going – and I have confidence that they can – this could make the municipal elections next year a lot more interesting.

…were any needed, that nobody on the Harris/Walz campaign has ever actually met a straight adult male:

Because guys go to vote like they’re a bunch of girls at a bar going to the bathroom together.

Joe Doakes, formerly of Como Park, emails:

After 265,000 absentee ballots have already been accepted, NOW they’re going to consider putting Republicans on the Absentee Ballot Board to decide which absentee ballots can be accepted in the future:

 

There is no election fraud.   There may be occasional errors but not enough to change the outcome. It is impossible to steal an election. The last election was the fairest one ever, except for this one, which is even more fair.  All we need to do to win, is to show up and vote. Anybody who says otherwise is an election denier and a threat to Our Precious Democracy.  

 

Joe Doakes

It’s all feeling a little Orwellian, isn’t it?

Joe Doakes, formerly of Como Park, emails:

Election officials in Trump-trending Bucks County, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Philly, sent a police officer to turn away voters standing in line, waiting for early voting.  The line was closed at 1:45 pm instead of 5:00 pm as advertised.  A judge later reinstated early voting after Republicans sued.

There is no election fraud.   There may be occasional errors but not enough to change the outcome. It is impossible to steal an election.

Joe Doakes

Seems a little…irregular.

Joe Doakes, formerly of Como Park, emails:

There are no standards for printing ballots.  Different counties use different print shops to print election ballots, but some ballots cannot be scanned.  Not all voters got the defective ballots and nobody knows whose votes were counted versus whose were rejected.  In counties where the red-blue split is close, rejecting red voters could swing the election.

There is no election fraud.   There may be occasional errors but not enough to change the outcome. It is impossible to steal an election. The last election was the fairest one ever, except for this one, which is even more fair.  All we need to do to win, is to show up and vote.

The Constitution enumerates some powers to the states.   It’s both a strength and. weakness.  And unfortunately, the Federal and State governments are both run by government workers.

Joe Doakes, formerly of Como Park, emails:

Virginia Governor Youngkin issued an order in August directing the state to remove ineligible non-citizens from the list of eligible voters (dead people, non-residents, illegal aliens, fraudulent registrations).  Democrats sued to keep ineligible persons on the eligible voter list, the district court decided the state could not remove ineligible persons within the “quiet period” before the election, Republicans appealed to the Supreme Court which decided the “quiet period” does not protect ineligible persons since they’re ineligible to vote in the first place. 

If the Supreme Court had not acted, ballots from those ineligible persons could have been harvested and votes cast for Kamala, potentially tipping the election.  Remember the felon votes for Al Franken?  Same idea.

 

There is no election fraud.   There may be occasional errors but not enough to change the outcome. It is impossible to steal an election. The last election was the fairest one ever, except for this one, which is even more fair.  All we need to do to win, is to show up and vote. Anybody who says otherwise is an election denier and a threat to Our Precious Democracy.  

 

Joe Doakes

The crime, to the left, is noticing the crime.

Joe Doakes, formerly of Como Park, emails:

Around a dozen ballots in Mesa County were stolen from registered voters in the mail and submitted fraudulently.

State officials said Thursday they discovered the thefts this week through the signature verification process in Grand Junction, prompting an investigation by state and local officials.

 

This caught THIS dozen but how many others, in how many other counties, were not discovered?  Enough to swing the election?  How will we know? 

 

There is no election fraud.   There may be occasional errors but not enough to change the outcome. It is impossible to steal an election. The last election was the fairest one ever, except for this one, which is even more fair.  All we need to do to win, is to show up and vote. Anybody who says otherwise is an election denier and a threat to Our Precious Democracy. 

 

Joe Doakes

It’s enough to make you wonder. 

Joe Doakes, formerly of Como Park, emails:

I have been pelting you with emails on a certain theme. Now Laughing Wolf takes up the refrain:

“I highly recommend going back and re-reading Larry Correia’s excellent takes on the 2020 elections, here and here. There are some other good ones out on that election, and 2022, but those do a very good job of establishing the patterns. Patterns we are already starting to see in Colorado (passwords, multiple other issues, trying to keep Trump off the ballot), Minnesota (multiple votes same voter ID number, etc.), Michigan (Chinese student voting), Pennsylvania (closing lines, voter intimidation, etc.), and, well, there are more.”

The evidence is clear that Democrats are blatantly trying to steal this election.

I don’t want to hear Republicans say, “There is no election fraud. There may be occasional errors but not enough to change the outcome. It is impossible to steal an election. The last election was the fairest one ever, except for this one, which is even more fair. All we need to do to win, is to show up and vote. Anybody who says otherwise is an election denier and a threat to Our Precious Democracy.”

Instead, I want to hear Republicans tell Democrats right now, “You are cheating and we won’t sit still for it. If you cheat to steal the election, we won’t quietly go along. We will burn it all down before we submit to a usurper. Stop cheating, play fair, or face civil war.”

Of course the media will lose their minds. Of course RINOs will be aghast.
Of course Democtats will point and rheeee.

So what? What’s Option B? Let them cheat to steal the election and what, lose gracefully? Claim that Trump was a bad candidate, too divisive, we need to run someone more moderate next time? And when Democrsts steal that election, and the next, and the next, then what?

Which one is the hill to die on?

Joe Doakes

Tad Jude is running for Congress in CD3 against the morbidly extreme Kelly Morrison. If you live in CD3, and you care about sanity in government, I ask you (as a private citizen) vote for him on Tuesday.

Not a single national Democrat or local DFLer denounced this erosion of our legal system. Some, including much of the metro and state “progressive” power elite, celebrated and participated in it.

This needs to be held against every last one of them in tomorrow’s elections.
