Replying to @elliottengenMN
The reason is simple: They want everybody disarmed, wholly dependent on them, and obedient to their rule. Disarmed sheeple can't fight back as is being seen around the world. Democrats are the true authoritarians and need to be fought back against harder.

Charlie was always full of class and grace. Chappelle as it turns out, is a classless piece of shit.
By refusing to charge the armed maniac who attacked Dave Chappelle on stage, George Gascon is sending a clear message that public acts of political violence are justifiable—and even encouraged—against anyone who dares speak out against The Regime. It’s Sinister & Un-American.

Here is a ~30 month review: The wife and I have talked extensively, and we can't ever imagine going back. We love our families, but we don't even want to go back to visit any more. If you think you see a lot of things living there, you all should see it from afar. Minnesota is in massive decline.
so, the writing is on the wall. My family and I are leaving Minnesota for Idaho this summer. For those that are wanting to tell me "dont let the door hit you on the way out", save your breath, I won't miss you, either. For those with good wishes, thank you. I had the idea yesterday to start posting about notable and shocking differences that intrigue me as we begin preparing our home and ourselves to leave this blue, increasingly marxist state for a red, conservative state. This is post #1, I hope someone finds the series interesting and helpful.

now, fall of 2026, the knife was driven home. Klobuchar was elected Governor (Walz 2.0), the state house will be 75-59, and the state senate 39-27. At least 2 more years of trifecta to totally screw up a beautiful state. The people of outstate MN deserve so much better.

in the fall of 2024, elections were somewhat kinder to Minnesota, allowing for a tie in the state House. This bought a 2 year reprieve from the worst of the insanity.

in August of 2024, Tim Walz announced he was running for VP. Minnesota was enjoying it's 2nd year of communist 'trifecta' governance. Somehow, people nation wide saw what a fraud Walz was and voted Trump/Vance into office. A myriad of controversial DSA/DFL policies passed.,,

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 2, 2026 Lenney Takes On Anthon for Pro Tem: “Two More Years of Chairmen Holding Republican Bills Hostage? No Thanks.” NAMPA, Idaho, Nov. 2, 2026. State Sen. Brian Lenney (R-Nampa) announced today he’s running for President Pro Tempore of the Idaho Senate, challenging incumbent Kelly Anthon (R-Burley) when Senate Republicans pick their leadership in December. “Leadership should change often,” Lenney said. “When the same people hold the keys to the Senate year after year, the lobbyists, bureaucrats, and big-money PACs get too comfortable, and the people get ignored. Follow the money and the endorsements. It’s all right there. Two more years of chairmen holding good Republican bills hostage? No thanks.” Lenney says the 2026 session proves the point. Republicans brought several bills to fight illegal immigration. The Senate delivered nothing significant, and the cheap-labor lobby that profits off illegal workers cheered. The bill to stop taxpayer support of teachers’ unions should’ve been easy to pass. Instead, it got buried by a Republican chairman who made a backroom deal with the teachers’ unions. So Lenney pulled a last-minute floor maneuver to drag it in front of the full Senate, and it passed. But the chairman who sat on that bill still has his gavel. “We had a Republican chairman holding a popular bill hostage and fighting his own party’s agenda,” Lenney said. “Nobody in leadership lifted a finger. The Pro Tem has the power to fix that, and that power has to be used.” As Pro Tem, Lenney says he’d put the right people in the right spots so good bills get a hearing and a vote, instead of getting stuffed in a drawer. “I’m America First, and I’m one of the most consistent conservatives in the Senate,” Lenney said. “The governor, the bureaucrats, and the lobbyist class already have plenty of errand boys. The people of Idaho need someone working for them.” Lenney represents District 13 in Nampa and begins his fifth legislative session in January 2027. ###

Blue states that enable this behavior are disgusting.
Is transitioning truly “Sofie‘s Choice?” Her own family does not know what Sophie Kutzko truly wants. They had no idea gender issues were so much as a consideration until after she was already gone from their home at age 15 almost 2 years ago. The anguish of Arlene Kutzko over the loss of her daughter, Sophie, to DCF—where she has begun her gender transition—has been amplified by a delayed trial and a manipulated legal claim. Arlene has suffered a parent’s worst nightmare: sending a child off to school one morning and then being informed that she’s gone by the end of the day—but not in the final sense. Gone in such a way that brings with it additional levels of pain and anxiety. Arlene’s daughter is alive; she knows she is in distress, she wants to help her baby—but she can’t reach her. It’s an anxiety dream from which Arlene cannot awaken. This mother has been cruelly cut off from nurturing and caring for her child, as she did for 15 years before DCF took custody, and “became her parents.” And before the shock of her daughter being gone had been fully realized, Arlene’s husband was suddenly gone, too. In what Joseph Kutzko says was “like a bomb dropped” on his family, Sophie‘s father was taken away by the police, the same day, in handcuffs, in front of his stunned wife and adult son. He spent the night in jail, faced assault charges the next morning, and was released. The charges were soon after unsupported. Arlene, her husband Joseph, and their son Walter, for reasons that cannot be explained, have a no-contact order imposed upon them. They stand accused of not supporting Sophie’s choice to transition when, according to the family, the first they heard of it was after Sophie was already gone. None of the three has had a single conversation with Sophie about it, contrary to what has otherwise been reported. The restraining order itself under Massachusetts General Laws chapter 209A was obtained for Sophie by the well-funded Boston legal group, the Victim Rights Center. Shockingly, the judge in the Marlboro District Court made the order permanent after only three months. And as if they have not suffered enough, DCF is cruelly contending that Sophie’s distraught mother violated the 209A by simply answering a compassionate hypothetical question during an interview with Lauren Green. The Chief Religion Correspondent for Fox News pre-recorded an interview with the Kutzkos for approximately 10 minutes. One of Green’s questions was—if you could talk to your daughter, what would you say? The interview was edited down to two minutes, to fit within the time constraints of the newscast, the question was cut. See the report that aired during the September 14 Fox News’ America’s Newsroom with Bill Hemmer here: givesendgo.com/Kutzko?utm_so… A continuous copy of the raw footage containing the question and answer together has been requested from Fox News, to be shown at the show-cause hearing on the alleged 209A violation scheduled for November 5, in Waltham District Court. If the video is viewed, it will show that Arlene Kutzko did not initiate direct contact as alleged. The parents’ spokesperson, Atty. Vernadette Broyles, called this “an attack on a grieving immigrant mother.” bostonherald.com  The threat to Sophie’s mother is real. The magistrate will determine whether there is probable cause to issue a criminal complaint. If none is found, the matter is dropped; otherwise, Arlene will be arraigned and prosecuted. Think about this perversion of justice—if convicted, Arlene Kutzko could face 2½ years in jail—for saying that she loves and misses her own daughter. With their custody trial now pushed off until next spring, the Kutzkos are racing against time. Sophie turns 18 in April just weeks from the court date—that is if the trial, originally scheduled for late, November is not delayed again. @amade @FoxNews @LaurenGreenFox @kutzko84686 @BillHemmer @AmericaNewsroom @ConsiderMeDunn @stacepochalypse

You have visitors staying with you. It’s 2am. You’re fast asleep when you hear a loud thump and breaking glass. You arm yourself and investigate expecting an intruder, only to find a shattered crystal pet dish on the floor in the bathroom and your dog eagerly gobbling up pieces of dog food from a dish that your friend apparently left on the counter for some reason. How long does it take for adrenaline to wear off? Hashtag sleepless in Idaho 🙄

We all notice this exact thing, whether you’re in Japan, Minnesota, or Europe.
“Why do you criticize Muslims so much?” I put together a simple comparison to explain my personal perspective. Christianity vs. Islam Differences in What They Ask of Japanese Society Today ・Food Accommodation Christianity: Few religious dietary requirements Islam: Requests for halal meals in schools and public institutions ・Burial and Cemeteries Christianity: Generally flexible about cremation Islam: Requests for dedicated burial grounds ・Worship Christianity: Worship mainly takes place inside churches Islam: Outdoor group prayers, sometimes raising legal or public-space concerns ・Daily Customs Christianity: I believe adaptation to Japanese society is generally easier Islam: Requests for accommodations regarding clothing, fasting, etc. ・Public Impact Christianity: I see fewer religious accommodation disputes Islam: I am concerned about growing demands on education, welfare, and public institutions ・Social Integration Christianity: I see a high level of integration Islam: I am concerned about the potential formation of parallel societies That’s why. Simply put, I am wary and critical of those who don’t follow the customs of the country they’re in.

When it rains, it pours commies.
In last night’s interview, Congresswoman Ilhan Omar said she drives a 2016 Toyota Camry. This photo from the October 12 search of her DC home shows a Toyota Camry in the driveway with Minnesota license plate tabs— that expired more than three years ago. Could this be the Camry she mentioned?

Voting no on this hot garbage of a proposition is just common sense. All one needs to do is get inundated with YT ads that are utter fabricated lies to see that evil is involved here. Read the current abortion laws in Idaho and see for yourself. Idaho Code § 18-622
A New York billionaire, Michael Bloomberg, put $250,000 into changing Idaho's abortion law. And he isn't even the biggest donor. I pulled Prop 1's official filing: about $5.8M raised, nearly $2.4M (over 40%) from out of state. The single biggest donor is a $950,000 Washington, D.C. PAC. Ask why. Vote NO on Prop 1. November 3rd.

I think he’s going to be proven right.
When I first met @ChrisKuper he asked me why I chose to get involved in the civilian gun world and 2A advocacy. My answer was it is because I believe “we” are going to be shooting at eachother before this is all over and the more civilians that are armed before that starts…the better. With rhetoric like this being said out loud and proudly on the regular it just confirmation that I’m right. The hour draws closer brother.
