Tolkkinen: Minnesota has become a state with two flags

No…

We have one flag. There’s an old flag that hasn’t been replaced or is being held on to by racists and curmudgeons.

That’s it.

I see a lot of businesses that went hard into this, buying pristine new versions of the old flag and trying to make some kind of statement by it.

Only statement they made is that they don’t want my money. And that maybe they hate Native Americans and have a kink for slavery.

Just get used to this one. It is a better look all around.

She could become the first Native American woman governor if Tim Walz steps down. Meet Peggy Flanagan

We could be in for a seismic demographic representational change in this state.

Flanagan seems good people. My only rip on her is that her husband, Tom Weber, was a great up-and-coming journalist for MPR before she became the lieutenant governor. He stepped down because of the perceived conflict of interest.

Frankly, given the conservative voice MPR has had since it changed owners, they’d have run him off anyway, but it was definitely a loss at the time.

Nevada Firebrand Michele Fiore Indicted On Wire Fraud Charges

Human waste Michele Fiore, who I remember from her shenanigans as a gun-toting loon way back when we lived in Vegas, is being charged with stealing $70,000 from a fallen officer’s charity.

First, she’s been bad news for a LONG time. Second, she’s a judge. You know, from that stench-ridden pile of candidates Trump gets his federal judges from.

So, yeah, this *might* be a comeuppance, but probably not. She’ll likely end up on the Supreme Court given how high the shit floats these days.

And stealing from dead cops? Yeah, the insurrectionists will easily forgive her. I mean, they’ve been supporting a child rapist for years. This is so small potatoes.
