Pounce On PIglet
By Mitch Berg
It’s always the food photos with Governor Klink.
Only this time it’s not Pronto Pups:
Huh. For the past two years, we’ve been told Minnesota’s economy is boooooooming.
Now that a Republican is president-elect, the GOP will own Congress, and the DFL trifecta is dead…well, you see how this works.
So let’s translate this from MSM to English: “Governor who claimed MN economy was booming and promised to “reduce poverty 30%” by squandering a $19B surplus, now trying to get ahead of zooming poverty by spending >1% of what DFL constituents defrauded in “Feeding our Future”.

Glad you mentioned “Feeding our Future”. In the wake of that fiasco and the continuing splashing of money around, has anyone thought of, or even proposed or (heaven forbid) implemented the kind of fiscal controls that any competent organization has in place from the very beginning?
Or stated better, what could be the motivation for lathering the state in spending without rudimentary fiscal controls?

Greg,
The short answer is “no.”
The longer answer is “Are you crazy? We can’t have repercussions for state workers that aided and abetted graft and theft through non-feasance if not outright malfeasance!! That’s how we buy votes, er, support our constituents.”
While there is a slight possibility the Trump Administration could come in force reform on the State, or at least cut off the money spigot, I think that’s a higher possibility than Minnesotans giving political control to Republicans in 2026. We’re about to undergo a full court press from the local media about how great the DFL is and how evil those obstreperous Republicans are, and how the tie in the House is ruining Minnesota (I think the Media dial must be turned up to at least 15 by now). And don’t forget, when it all crashes down, like it always does, the DFL and the Media (ptr) will simultaneously gaslight Minnesotans that it isn’t currently crashing and why didn’t the Republicans warn us it was going to crash down upon our heads?!?!

Pounce on Piglet and I bet he makes a noise like a squeaky-toy.
