MN Gov. Walz Says State Is an ‘Island of Decency’ Surrounded by Handmaid’s Tale
Breitbart ^ | 05/26/2024 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/26/2024 8:03:24 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Governor Tim Walz (D-MN) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that on abortion access, Minnesota is an “island of decency” surrounded by states enacting versions of “The Handmaid’s Tale.”

Anchor Dana Bash said, “On the issue of abortion, Mrs. Clinton said Democrats neglected abortion rights from the ballot box to Congress, to the Supreme Court. Our side was complacent and kind of taking it for granted and thinking it would never go away. Do you agree with that?”

Walz said, “I don’t think she’s totally wrong. Look, I ran in a conservative district, second Democrat since 1892 when I won a seat in Congress, and I was fully supportive of abortion rights, and this is back in 2005, 2006, that was considered risky by a lot of people in our party. I think what the former secretary is getting at is that we maybe didn’t understand the threat that was coming. That we thought that Roe was going to protect us. I think there are a lot of us, myself included, didn’t believe that. I think that’s why states like Minnesota were fire-walling things up.”

It only makes sense to have faith in the hell-spawn extraction of murder rights from the rock-solid "penumbras and emanations" of the right to privacy, and not those silly, outdated amendments the democrats are always trying to override.

I ordered a couple of original Minnesota state flags this week from amazon.

I figured they’d be valuable collectibles now that they’ve surrendered their sovereignty to the somalians & fly their new flag

Walz is a flaming lefty. He and his leftists are trying hard to compete with California. They want abortion up to birth, high taxes, many social programs, celebrating the drugged criminal George Floyd (Google “The Fall of Minneapolis” and watch to learn the truth), spending a surplus, and the usual lefty things that drive people out of state. Minneapolis is now counting daily shootings, like Chicago. He’s a school teacher who has never ran a business.

since when is infanticide classified as decency?
Since abortion defines "women's health" and a "reproductive right"

liberals say the darndest things.
It's called the bastardization of the language.
Like Gay, Pride, migrants (for illegals) to name a few.

Walz would probably have described the Nazi concentration camps as “therapeutic.”

And, illogical. It was bad law — RvWade. The constitution has no such right enshrined. But, the total buttheads who listen to CNN telling them lies cannot cope with the instance of someone else telling them a different point of view.

Someone ought to tell him about the status of women under Moslem Sharia law. Sharia is truly a guide book for living The Handmaid’s Tale.

Pro-abortionists could show how committed they are, their bona fides, if they demonstrated how “safe” abortion is by simply aborting themselves. A surgeon could chop them up into small pieces similar to a late-term abortion. Walz, Hillary - where are you?

Walz is a dyed-in-the-wool communist. He’s turned Minnesota from a pioneer industrial, technical, scientific capitalistic empire, into a failed socialist/muslim hellhole.
All he’s doing here is trying to gain attention for himself, as he has national aspirations in the next Marxist administration. His self-serving ego has ruined a once great place to live.

“Island of Failed Socialist policies” is more like it.
