Miss Minnesota 2019

Last week was Miss Minnesota week!

For the fifth consecutive year I had the honor of being co-emcee for all three nights of competition. The week culminated this past Saturday with the crowning of a new Miss Minnesota.





I've come to know Kathryn Kueppers and her family pretty well over the past few years and consider them friends. In fact, Kathryn's mom Vicki (who still serves as a valued mentor within the Miss Minnesota organization) was crowned Miss MN back in 1983, which makes the two the first mother/daughter duo to be crowned as titleholders in this state. So it goes without saying that I was absolutely thrilled on Kathryn's behalf, particularly since she finished first runner up the previous year. To return to competition this year knowing that there was literally only one way to top last year's result had to be a tremendous amount of pressure. Nevertheless, Kathryn showed an incredible combination of poise, confidence and grace that goes well beyond her 21 years of age. And it was just enough to catapult her to victory in what was a formidable group of candidates.

Another tradition over the past five years is the newly crowned Miss Minnesota makes her first media appearance on my Sunday radio show.





As an added bonus, I was slated to be a guest co-host on the Up and At 'Em show podcast with Ben Kruse on Tuesday evening. So whom do you think we chose to be our main guest on that episode?




Congrats again, Kathryn. Enjoy every minute over the next 51+ weeks. You earned this!

Quick Hits: Volume CXCI

- I can't emphasize enough how grateful I am to have been a teenager in a pre social media era. But with social media being so ubiquitous today, it can result in mindless youthful indiscretions turning into life altering consequences.

For high profile Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School alum Kyle Kashuv, the verdict is a lost opportunity to study at an elite Ivy League institution.

He’s apologized repeatedly, publicly to the world and privately to Harvard, and offered to do so again in person after they rescinded his acceptance. No dice. A Twitter pal wondered: If it had been David Hogg instead of Kashuv who got caught sh*tposting as a younger teen, would that apology have been enough? Would Harvard at least have offered him a meeting?

Maybe not, actually. This isn’t the first time the school has rescinded an acceptance for outre Internet musings. Ten applicants lost their admissions two years ago when the school was made aware of a Facebook group chat populated by Harvard admittees that involved “images with captions that were racist and anti-Semitic and that made light of pedophilia, among other offensive themes.” They may have bounced Kashuv this time as matter of simple consistency, to show that a student with an unusually high public profile would receive no special exemption from precedent.

Either way, when you’re 18 and remorseful for something you did when you were 16, an apology should suffice for forgiveness in all cases not involving a felony. Harvard disagrees.

I can't defend Kashuv's use of the N-word when he was 16. However, I absolutely believe in redemption and there have been Americans who have gone on to make tremendous contributions to our country despite having done much worse things earlier in life.

This is once again a disturbing example of a society which believes one can't evolve and learn from the egregious mistakes one made as a younger person.


- We were told by the in-the-tank Trump supporters in 2016 that if we conservatives didn't hop on their bandwagon, the next President would look to erode our civil liberties.




And they were right.


-  So O.J. Simpson joined Twitter recently.





That first tweet was posted just three days before the 25th anniversary of Simpson hiding in the back seat of his pal Al Cowlings' white Ford Bronco while being pursued by several police cars on a southern California freeway. It was at that moment where Simpson was considered a fugitive of justice given an arrest warrant was issued for him in the murders of ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman. Earlier that day, Simpson lawyers Robert Shapiro and Robert Kardashian held a press conference essentially begging O.J. to turn himself in.

About seven years ago, David Burge (aka @Iowahawkblog, the best twitter follow out there IMO) summed up today's pop culture perfectly.


 


Indeed.

When you've lost the Star Tribune.....

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) has not even been in Congress half a year, but it feels like half a decade given she can't stay out of the news.

Because she and colleague Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) are the first ever female Muslim members of Congress, diversity-obsessed leftists often dismiss any criticism of them as racist, misogynistic or Islamophobic. In fact, these two freshman reps are so insulated from critiques that it was suggested using Omar's own words against her is tantamount to inciting violence.

So if you want any inkling how much difficulty Rep. Omar faces over campaign finance violations as well as marriage/tax fraud, the major Twin Cities newspaper in the heart of her Congressional District called her out.

U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar is back in the news again, and not in a good way. The former state representative who won a seat in Congress last fall continues to be dogged by past missteps, this time eight violations of Minnesota campaign-finance law that will cost her nearly $3,500 in reimbursements and civil penalties.

So complex were the allegations that the state Campaign Finance Board spent nearly a year assessing the case, deposing staff people and former staff people, along with Omar herself. The investigation was broadened in October — just a month before her election to Congress — to look more deeply into the allegations. Board Executive Director Jeff Sigurdson said that between six and eight people were deposed separately.

In an October 2018 editorial, we called on Omar to more fully explain her travel and other expenses. We noted that the allegations “suggest a pattern of carelessness and/or self-dealing with legally restricted funds. Neither conclusion inspires the confidence voters deserve to have in someone they send to the U.S. House to represent them.”
Heh. She was running for U.S. House in Minnesota's CD 5, which is a D+22 district. Even if that matter had been resolved before the election, Omar still would've won handily.

It is even more disturbing, therefore, to learn that among the board’s latest findings was a troubling discovery that is far beyond its jurisdiction, but worthy of greater scrutiny nevertheless. Omar, for two years running, filed joint tax returns with a man she was living with but not legally married to. Complicating matters further, she was legally married to another man at the time.

It’s against the law in Minnesota to file jointly unless one filer is legally married to the other. Last year Omar told the Star Tribune that she had married her partner “in her faith,” and had earlier divorced her first husband “in her faith.” That’s fine for religious purposes. But for tax purposes, only civil marriages qualify. It’s not known whether she benefited materially by filing jointly. That is something that voters, who are obliged to follow tax laws no matter how painful, are entitled to know.

Again, true but irrelevant. Whatever name is next to "DFL" gets, minimum, 65% in that district. I highly doubt it would have adversely affected her election prospects.

It’s not too much to expect that a lawmaker would check with a tax attorney on a rather complicated marital status before filing. And when questions arise, it’s a violation to use campaign funds to clear up those personal issues, as Omar apparently did. The Campaign Finance Board has ordered that she reimburse her campaign $3,469 for violations related to her tax returns and non-campaign travel costs. She must also pay a $500 civil penalty.

Omar is no stranger to controversy. As a new state House member, she collected $2,500 in speaking fees — $2,000 from Normandale Community College and $500 from Inver Hills Community College — for appearances made shortly after she took office. Rep. Steve Drazkowski, R-Mazeppa, who publicly noted that state law prohibits legislators from collecting such fees from groups that have business before the Legislature, made that public, and Omar returned the money. Drazkowski also filed the latest complaint. “It’s very clear there are huge ethical problems with Rep. Omar,” he told an editorial writer, adding that the House should consider an ethics investigation.


Whoa, whoa! What's with all the incitement there, Rep. Drazkowski?!?!? Using someone's faux pas against them is equivalent to whipping up the mob don'cha know.

If this pattern continues, further investigation may be necessary. Omar could have avoided nearly every infraction by taking simple measures in advance to determine whether her actions would pass legal muster. In its findings, the board noted that Minnesota “House Research staff did explain that generally when they discuss whether a member can accept something of value, for example, travel and lodging reimbursement ... they discuss whether that would violate the gift prohibition,” but do not advise. “Rather, they commonly refer members to the Board. The Omar committee did not contact Board staff ... on the appropriateness of using committee funds for the travel reviewed in this investigation.”

Omar’s political rise has been marred by a series of unforced errors, including intemperate remarks and tweets earlier this year that were widely perceived as anti-Semitic. Every month seems to bring a fresh problem.


Well it took until the second-to-last paragraph, but Omar's blatant anti-Semitism is finally referenced. It's disgraceful that it's almost a footnote to her financial troubles, especially since she represents a city (St. Louis Park) where a significant portion of Minnesota's Jewish population resides.

As an elected representative for Minnesota and one of the first Muslim women and Somali refugees elected to Congress, Omar is helping to break new ground. But more is expected of her than the symbolism attached to her victory. Omar has a special obligation to be worthy of the trust so many have placed in her, including many still-new Americans who expect better.


Bingo! Omar's candidacy was always long on symbolism (i.e. the potential to be the first Muslim female in Congress) and woefully short on substance. Unfortunately electing such a candidate often leads to horrible policy ideas and resounding blunders. Heh. Come to think of it, that sounds like an apt characterization of a certain other proggie cult of personality.

Quick Hits: Volume CXC

- Today's "progressives" perfectly embody the proverb "If all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail." 

The latest lunacy?

The push by several NBA teams to remove the title "owner" from the person who purchases and manages the team has earned the praise of social justice warrior and the wokest of woke rapper, Common.

Speaking with TMZ Sports, the politically outspoken performer said the term owner "never sat right with me."

"I'm so pleased," Common told the outlet. "The term owner — it didn't sit right with me. The history of what we have and we are as black people in this country ... it's just not really being considerate of the history."


The title "owner" refers to a person owning a sports franchise and all the rights associated with it. To define that as owning human beings is beyond asinine. The relationship between owner and player is similar to that of, say, the CEO of Target and an IT professional at Target headquarters. And to imply either of those relationships are even the slightest resemblance to a slave owner and slave is to trivialize what slaves endured.

Have I mentioned lately that we live in very stupid times???


- Here is a headline from the Washington Post on June 7:

Dodgeball is tool of 'oppression' used to 'dehumanize' others, researchers argue.


Aaaaaaand three days later from The Hill:

Michelle Obama to lead female celebrity dodgeball team in 'Late Late Show' face-off.


Those damn leftists and their science denials.


- This reads like a Martin Scorsese movie.

Police in the Dominican Republic believe former Boston Red Sox star David 'Big Papi' Ortiz was shot by two cops hired by a Dominican Republic drug lord who believed the baseball player was having an affair with his wife, DailyMail.com has learned.

Three law enforcement sources confirmed the motive on Monday as Ortiz, 43, recovered in the hospital.

The drug lord has not been named.

On Monday, Ortiz's representative Leo Lopez denied that the shooting had anything to do with a woman but said it was the act of 'hired' killers.

'There is no doubt that it was an act of hired killers.

'If we had known that there was a dangerous situation, he would not have been there at that moment,' Leo Lopez told Diario Libre.

Ortiz has since been flown to Mass General in Boston where additional procedures have taken place. He is now being reported as "stable."

Between an American woman being brutally assaulted, an American couple found dead in their hotel room and multiple individuals mysteriously dying or becoming violently ill, the Dominican Republic should pretty much be avoided when considering a foreign vacation destination.

Everyone considered him the coward of (Broward) county

It's been nearly 16 months since the the tragedy at Parkland, Florida's Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, where a gunman killed 17 people. In the time frame since the shooting, there has been an investigation into the actions (or non actions) of Scot Peterson, the armed resource officer on the campus who didn't enter the school to confront the gunman.

On Tuesday, it was determined that Peterson will be criminally charged for his abdication of duty.

For more than a year after the February 2018 attack in Parkland, Fla., grieving parents have demanded that Mr. Peterson — along with the gunman who killed 17 and injured 17 — be held accountable in what would prove to be one of the nation’s worst school shootings. On Tuesday, law enforcement responded with a sweeping list of charges that resulted in Mr. Peterson’s arrest. His alleged crime: failing to protect the students.

America’s long history of mass shootings have brought a variety of responses: Calls for tighter gun laws, civil lawsuits against companies that manufacture guns and firearm components
(none of which would deter a motivated spree killer - ed.), collective mourning. But Tuesday’s charges represented a highly unusual case of a lawman arrested for failing to save lives.

I'm not certain if Peterson will ultimately be found criminally liable since there have been past legal decisions stating that law enforcement does not have a constitutional duty to protect citizens from harm. So if indeed Peterson is not convicted, it will only fortify vigilance in the Second Amendment. A non-conviction will also fly in the face of a prolific gun-grabbers chanting point of "only law enforcement and military should be allowed to handle guns."

I don't believe it's a dramatic overstatement to say a lot will be riding on this case -- legally and politically.

Quick Hits: Volume CLXXXIX

- In 2018, the United States had "a five-year high in approvals of citizenship applications." Leftist narratives hardest hit.

Those numbers contradict the criticisms of congressional Democrats who had complained about backlogs building at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, the Homeland Security branch that handles legal immigration.

The new report also suggests that far from a crackdown, the government is processing more asylum-seeker petitions than any of the last four years. That included a 61 percent increase from 2017 to 2018 in affirmative asylum applications — though refugee interviews are down from more than 1250,000 in 2016, the last year under President Barack Obama, to just 26,400 in fiscal year 2018 under President Trump.

Still, when the whole panoply of humanitarian programs is considered — asylum, refugees, crime victim visas, Temporary Protected Status and screening for credible fear or reasonable fear of persecution — the numbers were 32 percent higher than fiscal year 2017. Credible fear and reasonable fear are first steps on the asylum track.


Whenever leftists chided the political right as being "anti-immigrant," most righties were quick to correct them by emphasizing we're anti illegal immigration. Hence, the vapid proggie retort of "no human is illegal" (accept if they're in the womb of course). It's an attempt to divert from the fact there is a legitimate crisis at the southern border, so obfuscation is the left's go-to tactic.

As a certain wise man once said - "Facts don't care about your feelings."


- I can't emphasize enough that President Trump labeling media outlets "Enemy of the people" is highly inappropriate.

However, when certain media types pull stunts like doxxing (or threatening to dox) private citizens who show even tacit approval of Trump (See here, here and here)? They sure as hell aren't showing themselves as "allies."


- Sentencing has been handed down in a high profile incident which occurred at the Mall of America nearly two months ago.

The man who pleaded guilty to throwing a 5-year-old boy off a third-story balcony at the Mall of America was sentenced to 19 years in prison Monday.

Emmanuel Aranda stood in court listening to victim impact statements being read by a prosecutor, tears welling in his eyes. Of that 19-year sentence, Minnesota law mandates that he serve 12 of them, with 53 days off for time served.

When given the opportunity to make a statement or apologize to the family of his victim, Aranda said nothing.

In mid-May the 24-year-old pleaded guilty to first degree attempted murder in the case, in exchange for an agreed-upon sentence of 19 years.


Amazingly there are some silver linings to this story. First off, it appears the victim (identified only as "Landen") is recovering (albeit slowly) and that upcoming procedures are related to “non-life threatening complications.” And secondly, Landen's mother showed the kind of grace and compassion which should serve as a sterling example to us all.

"I want you to know I forgive you, not because what you did was OK, not because I want to, but because God wants me to," she wrote. "I refuse to be full of anger and hatred. I refuse to let you let you take my joy. My sweet precious baby, my amazing gift from God is going to be OK."

More evidence of how God can take any horrible, ugly situation and make it beautiful. Continued prayers to Landen and his family.
