- With Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan announcing her intention to run for U.S. Senate next year, there was significant intrigue over whether her boss would also enter the fray.
Turns out, he will not.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz won’t seek Minnesota’s open U.S. Senate seat next year and is instead considering a run for a third term as governor, the Democrat’s spokesman announced Wednesday.
“He loves his job as governor,” Walz’s spokesman Teddy Tschann said in a written statement.
The former vice presidential candidate announced his decision nearly two weeks after U.S. Sen. Tina Smith, a Democrat, announced she would not seek reelection in 2026. Walz was among a flurry of those from both major political parties who then began testing the waters for the state’s first open Senate race since 2006.
Within literally hours after Smith made her announcement, those close to Walz indicated he was seriously considering his candidacy for that Senate seat. But a mere 13 minutes later, Flanagan announced her intention to run, thus stealing her boss's thunder and giving further validation to a report the two are on the outs.
Walz not vying for U.S. Senate keeps the rift with Flanagan from playing out in public. But if he runs for a third gubernatorial term, he's now going to have to answer for referring to the opposite political party as "fascists and nazis."

The very last bit about being jealous of the neighbors re-doing their roof? Yep, it played a small part in us getting our roof replaced 2-1/2 years ago.

Part II, protestors explain why/how much they support Luigi and are asked insightful questions like:

"Who is hotter, Luigi or George Floyd"
and
"Is Luigi up there with Nelson Mandela?"

Notice those loons aren't proclaiming Luigi Mangione as innocent. No, they're warped worldview has them believing that his actions were justifiable.
Absolute ghouls, all of 'em.
