Remember any new "revelation" you hear about a political candidate from here on out won't stand up to scrutiny which is why it wasn't released until now

Momentum is everything on politics. I think @Michele_Tafoya will win now. She is surging at precisely the right time. Lots of internal polling also shows her numbers are outperforming other statewide candidates. Go out and vote!!! This could be recount territory.
Michele Tafoya has hit new highs in the betting markets. Strongly reflective of consistent polls here showing Lean D territory plus some media buzz about this being a close race. It's interesting that MN is now viewed as more competitive than NH in these markets. Again, likely due to the polling averages, where Flanagan only has about a +3.5 lead vs. +6.5 for Pappas in NH.

Correct. Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be. Starshield, a different system, is controlled by the US government. What they decide to do is up to them. Ukraine military violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people. That loophole was closed last week. Starlink remains critical to the defense of Ukraine, as it is the only system that cannot be jammed or blown up, at least for now. Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately. This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact. Starlink was also crucial to preventing Russia from overrunning Ukraine in the early days of the war, as all other means of communication were destroyed or jammed by Russia. SpaceX has done more to defend Ukraine than any private company on Earth BY FAR. That said, I have nothing but UTTER CONTEMPT for the virtue-signaling evil warmongers who push for endless slaughter and offer no realistic solution to the conflict. May you burn in hell. End of story.
STARLINK WORKS THE SAME WAY ITS ALWAYS WORKED. ITS NOT A WEAPONS SYSTEM, NO MATTER HOW MUCH UKRAINE WANTS IT TO BE.

Republicans are WAY more tolerant the Democrats. The Democrats DEMAND absolute conformity. There is not a single pro-life Democrat left. Soon there won't be a single Democrat who supports Israel left. Here is a competitive GOP Senate candidate who was pro-choice before AND after getting into politics. That is one of the main reasons I am a Republican. I am not interested in signing up for a dogmatic new religion. I'd like to be allowed to think for myself.
#MNPol: "I'm a pro-choice Republican, I'm not afraid to stand up to my party. When Trump is right, I'll work with him. When he's wrong, I'll stand up for Minnesota." Michele Tafoya is up with a new #MNSen ad. Future reservations: 🔴$1.1M 🔵$896K

Thank God this is a federal case. If this was prosecuted in MN, they would say he is just an "emerging adult" and doesn't no any better. Then release him to shoot up a neighborhood.

Peggy Flanagan didn’t show for our debate because she can’t defend her incompetence and failure, the same record that led Tim Walz to withdraw from his race. It was a pleasure to join Tom Hauser and KSTP to provide straight talk about the new leadership Minnesota needs. I’m running for the U.S. Senate to bring common sense and accountability to Washington and put Minnesotans first.

Why would anyone vote for someone who wouldn’t even show up to defend their own political positions? If you haven’t figured it out by now, it’s because those positions are indefensible. They count on their voters being lazy and uninformed.

Google is censoring this video to help Minnesota Democrats. They claim the video is "inaccurate", and refuse to allow it to be used as an ad. However, all the data comes from the new fee schedule they created. I'll show my work here: I make the claim the Democrats cost you $302.58 in a single year owning a new Honda Odyssey minivan. To get that number I compared the old fee schedule with the new fee schedule the Democrats put on. They increased the tax rate, and slowed down depreciation. Before the hike from the Democrats you'd pay $594.68 for your tabs when you bought a new 2024 Honda Odyssey minivan. Under the new increased rate, that number is $726.63. That is an increase of $131.95 on your tabs when you first buy the car. The democrats also halved the rate of depreciation. You pay the higher rate on a higher car value in the next year. Before the Democrat hike you'd pay $526 for tabs when you renew, but now the renewal will be $690. Costing you another $164.58. Lastly add in the difference in from Motor Vehicle Sales tax increase to 6.85% from 6.5% ~$302.58 I walk through all that in a longer version of the video, but either way it is an accurate claim. Total BS from @Google

Nobody has ever challenged Klobuchar like Demuth is. That shows when the best her staff can come up with is basically “Yes she teamed up with Ilhan Omar to get a sketchy earmark but she didn’t get it because Republicans found it and stopped it” startribune.com/mn-state-fai…

Here's what I can't square. You're senior counsel at an organization that supports constitutionalist lawyers, judges, and govt officials. "we're going to need to ban marijuana again" is a request for fed govt to protect grown men from their own choices - the largest nanny state projcect in American history, round two. We don't ban whiskey or cap whiskey at beer strength. we print the proof on the bottle and treat adults like adults. A free adult with honest information makes his own decision and that is the entire premise of the cause you work for. Friedman spent fifty years saying prohibition is a cure worse than the disease. Buckley's National review put "the war on drugs is lost" on it's cover 30 years ago. The study being cited never says ban. It's own authors call for treatment and public health strategy. "ban it again" got added by retweets that you're now endorsing with your own post. The liberty position and the public health position point at the same answer and it's not prohibition. Happy to have this conversation in any format, anywhere, anytime.
We're going to need to ban marijuana again

It happened again! With Salman Elmi being charged, there are now two Walz/Flanagan "Outstanding Refugee" winners who are fraudsters.

Minnesota, just do this. Go out tomorrow, or Tuesday. Register as a Republican. And vote for literally (I don't use that word lightly) the ONLY sane, intelligent, and competent candidate running for governor. PLEASE.
It's time to save our state. The first step is voting in the primary tomorrow, or on Tuesday, Aug. 11. Find your polling place at mnvotes.gov

Mike Lindell will doom the GOP if he is our nominee for governor. He profits off his donors by spending $190,000 on his self-published autobiography. Apparently, he needs to do that because he is $10 million in debt. The IRS has a lien on his house. His wages are currently being garnished to pay debts. A jury might even add another billion to that debt in the next few months. A candidate that is financially compromised, who has no understanding of our state, has no business being on the ballot, and if he is, he will destroy our chances in the House AND Senate. Go vote for @LisaDemuthMN in your primary today! Our state depends on it.
