Minnesota lawmakers have filed articles of impeachment against Attorney General Keith Ellison and Gov. Tim Walz. State Reps. Drew Roach, Ben Davis, and Mike Wiener, of the Minnesota Freedom Caucus, filed the documents. The lawmakers allege that the leaders allowed state residents to commit rampant fraud.

Minnesota is in the midst of what state health officials call the nation's "largest known outbreak" of TMVII, a sexually transmitted fungal skin infection that can cause severe ringworm. TMVII, or trichophyton mentagrophytes genotype VII, is the only known fungal-based sexually transmitted disease, according to the Minnesota Department of Health, and it's treatable with oral antifungals. The first case was reported in New York City in 2024, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, with Minnesota's first reported case in July 2025, when a patient sought treatment for a genital rash.

The Minneapolis businesses that exploit illegal migrants should be compensated by ordinary Americans for economic losses amid the federal enforcement of popular immigration and civil rights laws, according to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz.“They left us with economic ruin,” Walz complained after White House advisor Tom Homan said on Thursday that he is withdrawing most ICE officers after arresting more than 4,000 illegal migrants in Minneapolis. (snip) “Many Minnesota businesses – especially small businesses — are facing economic hardships that may prove insurmountable” because of the federal enforcement, said Matt Varilek, an economic development manager for Walz.

If he were so inclined, I think Governor Walz could rewrite the Paul Simon song subtitled “How I Was Robert McNamara’d into Submission.” In Walz’s case, it would go “How I was Nancy Pelosi’d Into Submission.” The lyrics would explain how he was Nancy Pelosi’d into submission by Amy Klobuchar, or perhaps how he was Klobber’d into submission. I told the public part of the story in the Examiner column “Exit Tim Walz, stage Biden.” Walz has now folded his campaign for an absurd third gubernatorial term. To say that Walz is the worst governor in Minnesota history does not...

Moonbattery is so consistent in its hostility to innocence, moral sanity, and human flourishing that it is hard to make sense of it without reference to a metaphysical concept of evil. So it comes as no surprise that a plaque prominently displayed in the Minnesota State Capitol thanks Tim Walz for “allowing the spread of Satanism.” Via Liberty Daily, Republican State Representative Pam Altendorf congratulates Tampon Tim on this special honor: The plaque reads as follows: The Democratic Coalition of Satan Worshippers thanks Gov. Tim Walz for not standing in the way of spreading Satanism in the state Capitol building....

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt gave a briefing Monday afternoon to, in part, distill the latest on the Trump administration's plans to bring law and order to Minneapolis, Minnesota. It was the first official White House press briefing since Saturday's shooting of leftist protester Alex Pretti by a Customs and Border Patrol agent, and the weekend's events were clearly top of mind for everyone in the briefing room. Leavitt spoke first of the administration's disgust for the efforts of Democrats and hard-left agitators to disrupt "the will of the people;" President Trump has spoken previously of his dismay at...

Key points covered: Arrest of Alexander Soofer (former executive director of Abundant Blessings charity in California), charged with wire fraud for allegedly misusing ~$23 million in government funds meant for homeless housing and food to finance a lavish lifestyle (mansion, luxury vehicles, vacations, private school tuition). The arrest was announced by First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli for the Central District of California. Broader commentary links this to other alleged Democrat-connected frauds, including the Minnesota "Feeding Our Future" scandal (involving $250 million in child nutrition funds), where a convicted fraudster reportedly claims leaders like Gov. Tim Walz and AG Keith...

I wasn’t a...

Just when you thought Minnesota had hit rock bottom, the state achieves a new level of chaos. Once again it is the epicenter of a self-serving, destructive “revolution” at the behest of an incompetent, unhinged and rancorous city and state leadership, helmed by Governor Tim Walz. According to local reports, “A 37-year-old woman was fatally shot by a federal agent on Wednesday, January 7, in south Minneapolis during an immigration enforcement operation. The shooting happened around 9:30 a.m. in the area of East 34th Street and Portland Avenue. The woman, later identified as Renee Nicole Good, died at the hospital.”...
