…the DFL and its PR firm, “The Minnesota Media”, blame the upcoming government shutdown on the GOP, keep this in mind:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s Javier Morillo, and if you’re not constantly marinading in Minnesota politics, a) you’re lucky, and b) you may not know that Morillo is up there with Alida Messinger as the most powerful person you haven’t heard of.<\/p>\n

He’s the “Protressive-to-a-fault” majordomo of…the SEIU? \u00a0AFSCME? \u00a0MAPE? \u00a0Oh, who cares – all government workers’ unions are pretty much the same.<\/p>\n

Anyway – mark my words:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Morillo calls for “progressives” to shut down the Legislature<\/li>\n
  2. \u00a0“Progressives”, being herd animals, will do it<\/li>\n
  3. The media, being obedient servants of the class led by none other than Morillo, will do as told and bury that fact; on\u00a0Almanac\u00a0<\/em>after the shutdown, Morillo (or the other Mini-Javis that appear in his stead) will be able to skate away from their complicity.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Just watch.<\/p>\n

    UPDATE: \u00a0MN Representative Scott Dibble is in on the act:<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    As is Rep Dehn, who is also running for mayor of Minneapolis, and bringing enough grandstanding to the ‘struggle” (bwahahaha) to make Betsy Hodges go “um, Ray? \u00a0Bubbie? \u00a0Dial it back a skosh?”<\/p>\n

    \"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    Five’ll get you ten this is all forgotten when the government\u00a0does\u00a0<\/em>shut down; the GOP will be to blame as far as the media knows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
