Woo-hoo, my beloved homeland of Minnesota and its governor Tim Walz remain a shining example of how it should be done to try to actually help people instead of oppress them! I always hope that things like this will overshadow the likes of Kevin Sorbo and Mike Lindell.
I'm sorry, I can't get over the copper polisher Trump smeared over his face before his latest video. Who thinks that's a good idea? Does he have no advisors?
More people here in DC than two states (Vermont & Wyoming). We child-proofed our home but they got in anyway.

Utah did it because it's full of polygamous Mormons with 20 kids in a family with 6 wives!
MN is killing it. If you want to know what a liberal government hellscape actually looks like. Go to MN and see all the amazing things they are doing.
Woo-hoo, my beloved homeland of Minnesota and its governor Tim Walz remain a shining example of how it should be done to try to actually help people instead of oppress them! I always hope that things like this will overshadow the likes of Kevin Sorbo and Mike Lindell.
And in Texas, AG Paxton sues Houston for providing $500 guaranteed income for babies. Situation normal.
Ta, Dok. I appreciate your gifting us with Nice Times.
