The Maye Quade Doctrine: If It Moves, Slander It. If It Doesn’t Move, Defame It
I’ll allow that it’s possible that between David and I, Minnesota might get a little over-covered here at Hot Air. But I’ve got a theory: national Democrats are trying out a lot of their national strategies and tactics in Minnesota; conservatives following Minnesota politics got a fair amount of deja vu during the ’24 presidential…

Behold #BlueAnon
It must be a tough time to be Erin Maye Quade – Senator from Apple Valley, and Big Left’s attack poodle in the Senate. In the past couple of years, she’s voted for a thoughtcrime data base, and openly fantasized about using government power to keep parents from teaching their kids about abstinence… …and about…

A Stylish LIttle Stiletto Boot On Your Neck Forever: Apple Valley Edition
Among Big Left’s great crimes against history is the complete devaluation they have achieved against the term “Fascist”. To much of the parts of society that routinely use the word, it now means “anyone not on board with today’s left’s narrative”. No, really: And Big Left knows what it’s doing, since the other options have…

Show Me The Pro-Lifer, EMQ Will Show You The Crime
“Pregnancy Resource Centers” attempt – and succeed with gratifying regularity – at convincing women and couples considering abortion to carry their children to term. In many/most cases, they offer post-birth financial and emotional support. It’s in stark contrast to Planned Parenthood, which aborts the fetuses, collects whatever money they can, and sends the patient on…

Retirement Planning
I think this’d be what the kids today call “saying the quiet part out loud”… …except it’s really saying the part they keep yelling at the top of their lungs, even louder, really. Senator Erin Maye Quade thinks parents shouldn’t be bringing their children up with any sense of basic morality when it comes to…

Berg’s Seventh Law Comes Screaming Back From The 1930s
I was warned that if I voted Republican, there’d be an explosion of Fascist sympathizers. And they were right. Berg’s 7th Law is called a “law” for a reason. Senator Ron Latz – an anti-gun zealot about whom I’ve never, not once, said anything good or complimentary – came out in support of Israel finishing…

Erin Maye Quade Props Up The Overton Window With Berg’s 24th Law
Senator Erin May Quade assumes DFL voters aren’t that bright, critical or well-informed. She was commenting about the GOP Debate from Wednesday: Now, if you haven’t been in a coma or getting your news from the Strib for the past 20 years, you know: Maye Quade is counting on reaching “voters” know don’t know and…

Four Out Of Five Red Sox Fans Say “The Yankees Suck”
Senator Erin Maye Quade continues to confirm my thesis that DFL politicians count on their voters being – let’s be diplomatic – smug, but uninformed and uncritical. The Alliance Defending Freedom is “literally” “designated” as a “hate group” by the Southern Poverty Law Center, which is – and I know 95% of your readers know…

Common Cause
A friend of the blog emails: Reading this news report at Alpha News, I am struck by this question: Why don’t conservatives make common cause with the local Muslims? They want good educations for their children, just like Moderates, Conservatives, and Christians do. Muslims by and large are much more puritanical about these sorts of…

The New Democrat Strategery
2018: afraid that the hyper-progressive Erin Murphy/Erin Maye Quade ticket will lose the governor‘s office, the coterie of progressive plutocrats that bankroll the DFL prop up retrofitted “moderate“ Tim Walz as a sort of Danish-monarchy-style figurehead for the hyper-progressive troika of Peggy Flanagan, Ryan Winkler and Melissa Hortman (all of whom are essentially mouthpieces for…

Urban Progressive Privilege Means Never Needing A Moral Compass
Erin Maye Quade – who, you may recall, came within an epic suck up to the progressive movement of being Minnesota’s lieutenant governor – had this to say about Tim Scott’s rebuttal to the presidents… whatever that was Wednesday night: This, on top of Ryan WInkler’s “Uncle Tom” jape at one of the most accomplished…

To Recap
We had a thorough discussion about Ryan Winkler’s tweet and establishedthat Democrats have a strong personal belief, perhaps even a moralconviction, that public safety is a government responsibility. We had a thorough discussion about a lawsuit against the City andestablished that when citizens suffer because government abandoned itsresponsibility, the citizens have no recourse against the…

Civil Society And Its Abusers
One of domestic abusers most insidious forms of brainwashing is telling, and eventually convincing, their partners that the abuse is partly, or all, their own fault. “You provoked me”. “You shouldn’t have said __“. “You’re as much to blame as me. Maybe more”. We’ll come back to that. Years ago, I was at an event…

This Is What Urban Progressive Privilege Looks Like [1]
Every spousal abuser in history: “Yeah, sure, I hit you. But you provoked me – again. So you’re at least partly to blame. Maybe mostly. I mean, actions have consequences, baby…” Big Left’s latest line – through one of its local mouthpieces, former Reprentative and Lt. Gov. Candidate and Urban Progressive Privilege poster child, Erin…

2+2=Road Salt
Got any questions? Don’t bring ’em to Erin Maye Quade, former MN state representative, 2018 Lieutenant Governor candidate, and (along with former commenter Dog Gone and William Davis) one of the Minnesota DFL’s most imortant intellectual thought leaders. Because, being a thought leader, she’s got the answers: So a trans woman, having experienced none of…

Misleading Advertising
In a state with functioning truth in advertising laws, the DFL would be forced the change its name from the “Democrat Farmer Labor” to the “Democrat Public Employee” party. The DFL’s numbers among private-sector labor unions have been eroding for decades. That’s the subject of another post. But the DFL’s support in rural Minnesota has…

Denied!
Last week, when a middle-aged white man was arrested for waving a gun at some Somali teenagers at a gas station, you could fairly hear the panting fro the anti-gun crowd: “Please let it be a permit holder! Please let it be a permit-holder“, they prayed in fractured Unitarian. Alas, they were denied: Investigators with…

Lie First, Lie Always: Nancy Nord Bence Goes Full-Bore Ghoul (CORRECTION: It Was Erin Maye Quade)
I went to a League of Women Voters’ panel forum on “Gun Violence” in Burnsville last night. It was actually a fairly even-handed forum; the LWV volunteer who did the initial setup of the topic, “Emily” (didn’t catch the last name) gave an incredibly even-handed presentation on the facts of the “gun debate” – most of which…

October – But No Surprise
From his initial eledtion in the Democrat wave of 2006, until the 2016 election was all over but the shouting, Tim Walz got, and earned, an “A” rating from the NRA, and good marks from state 2nd Amendment human rights groups as well. You could see the change, though, as the 2016 campaign wound down;…

As They Pour On The Vinegar, They Add A Splash Of Honey
California proposes a “no buy list” for guns, for people who fear they might commit suicide: Assembly Bill 1927 would allow at-risk individuals to put themselves on a voluntary no-buy list, which would prevent them from purchasing guns from a licensed dealer. The bill was approved by the Assembly on Wednesday and is now in…

My Weekend In Duluth, Watching The Weekend In Rochester
This past weekend was all about political conventions; for the first time in a long, long time, The Gales Of November Came…In Spring: When I left Saint Paul on Friday morning, it was up around 80 degrees. When I got to Duluth two hours later, it was 47 with a wind howling off the lake.…

This Is What “90% Of Minnesotans” Looks Like
After the Strib released their propaganda poll earlier in the week, the Bloomberg-funded anti-gun criminal-safety clicque swung into gear. As anti-gun mean girl Erin Maye Quade (DFL Apple Valley) staged a faux “sit in” for the cameras, “Protect” MN put out a call to action to get people down to the Capitol to support the DFLers’ little…

Lie First, Lie Always: Why Is Erin Maye Quade Lying?
Last week, after the collapse of the DFL effort (for now) to ram through a couple of gun control bills (including Rep. Linda Slocum’s gun grab bill, HF 3022), the names of several DFL legislators quietly disappeared from the “jackets” – the cover sheets that accompany the bills and list the signatures of Representatives who…

Bad Information
Rep. Erin Maye-Quade sent this bit out to her constituents earlier this week: Looks familiar, doesn’t it? It’s the same, precise set of fallacious claims made by The Reverend Nancy Nord Bence a few weeks ago. Neither of the bills would “eliminate” the permit to carry. That’s not the point, of course, so we’ll let…
