North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem dies suddenly at age 68

North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem died unexpectedly Friday. He was 68.

Stenehjem was the longest serving attorney general in North Dakota history, having held the office since 2000. His cause of death remained unclear Saturday.

Allan Stenehjem, Wayne’s brother, told Bismarck NBC affiliate KFYR that Stenehjem was dealing with an ulcer that may have been inflamed. However, Allan told the Bismarck Tribune that his brother didn’t have any known health issues.

“We know Wayne was a widely respected and well-known public figure, but we ask that his family be allowed time to grieve in private,” Stenehjem’s office said in a statement.

Stenehjem, a Republican, spent nearly his entire adult life in North Dakota politics. He was elected to the state legislature in 1976 at age 23. He spent four years there before winning a North Dakota Senate seat in 1980. Stenehjem served 20 years in that seat before running for state attorney general in 2000 and winning the first of six consecutive terms.

In all six elections, Stenehjem won at least 55% of the vote. He also ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2016, losing the Republican primary to current governor Doug Burgum.

“Like so many North Dakotans who treasured his friendship and admired him for his more than four decades of exceptional service to our state, we are absolutely devastated by the passing of Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem,” Burgum said. “Wayne embodied public service, both as a dedicated legislator and the longest-serving attorney general in our state’s 133-year history.”

Stenehjem had announced in December that he would not seek a seventh term. Gov. Burgum will appoint someone to fill Stenehjem’s seat until the next state attorney general election in the fall of 2022.

When I was younger I never dreamed I’d be reading an obit and thinking “only 68”.

He could be in Eastern Dakota. That’s a state, right?

Don't be lazy and just read the headline. From the post above: "Stenehjem, a Republican, spent nearly his entire adult life in North Dakota politics. "

They should merge the Dakotas. One would be enough.

I met Wayne Stenehjem in 1981. A fine gentleman and public servant. He was the choice of the Republican party leaders to run for governor in 2016.

However, Doug Burgum, the founder of Great Plains Software, decided to run for the nomination and defeated Mr. Stenehjem in the primary. Mr. Burgum won the general election handly.

Valid question these days. I know two , both in their 70’s that died shortly after their boosters. Both had heart problems after shots then strokes after the boosters. Becoming common.

He died of "unexpectedly" and "unclear". Nothing to see here. Move along, sheep.

when FIRST posted by the doctor, there was a WARNING in the title which the American Heart Assn removed.

Prior to COVID, Dr. Gundry had been measuring his patients every 3 to 6 months for the last 8 years. His team noticed a dramatic increase in PULS scores after patients began to be injected with either the Pfizer or the Moderna mRNA shots.

In the Circulation article, Gundry reports data for 566 patients (age range 28 to 97). Patients were a 1:1 ratio of male to female. In a period of 2 to 10 weeks following the second COVID shot, PULS scores were taken and compared with the PULS scores taken 3 to 5 months before the patients received the COVID injections. Pro-inflammatory IL-6 increased from 35 points above the norm to 82 points above the norm after the second dose. Several other markers more than doubled as well.

Overall, the changes in the PULS score indicate that the5-year risk of having a cardiac event prior to the shot was about 11%; after receiving the shot, the risk increased to 25% and the elevated risk was sustained for at least 2.5 months after the second dose. Gundry’s team concluded that the mRNA injections dramatically increased inflammation within cardiac muscle and may account for rapidly increasing reports of heart attacks, myocarditis, and cardiomyopathies.

Myocarditis and the COVID-19 Shots

To anyone who can think, this information is more than enough to shut the clot shot scam down but the murderers and idiots with medical degrees are lying and hiding information to keep the killing injections going, and going, and going.

Are you sure those Gundry patients weren’t affected by evil tomatoes?
