Which is utter bullshit; nothing terrifies Trump and his ilk more than someone like Rep. Omar. Always has, always will. Do the people who call the shots for corporate media (CM) not know that? Or […]

MN-01: Dan Feehan is going to kick butt

October 3, 2019

It was Feehan vs. Hagedorn in 2018. The latter is now Rep. Jim Hagedorn (R-MN), but not by much. Feehan has announced a rematch. My intent is not to dismiss any other DFLers who may get in, but I think it’s a pretty safe bet that it will be Feehan on the ballot, again. And […]

Why would I call Sen. Smith about “government rate-setting?”

September 13, 2019

You may well have seen at least one of the mildly apocalyptic commercials about “government rate-setting.” The one I embedded here from YouTube is presumably being run in Georgia. But here it’s the same, except for suggesting at the end that you help ring Sen. Tina Smith’s (D-MN) phones off the hook. This is from […]
