U of M Law Announces Walz as Graduation Speaker Despite Unconstitutional Track-Record; Insinuates False Title in Military
Tyrant Tim Walz is set to give the commencement speech for the University of Minnesota Law School graduating students.
Woke public universities like the U of M that openly attach themselves to big government, anti-freedom crooks like Tim Walz and Dr. Fauci should lose ALL taxpayer funding from the federal and state governments.
The U of M is likely hoping that honorary, BS speech time for Walz to grandstand earns them preferential treatment, especially with MN’s ongoing budget fight.
The U of M made this announcement and included a biography of Walz directly from the Governor website. That biography labels himself as “Command Sergeant Major Walz retired..” despite the fact that Walz retired as a Master Sergeant because he did not maintain the Command Sergeant Major status. The biography would lead you to believe otherwise through omission.
Walz retired early to start a political career while his battalion was about to be deployed to Iraq in 2005. As seen in ABC News, a post on the Walz' CD1 Congress campaign website he stated “As Command Sergeant Major I have a responsibility not only to be ready for my battalion for Iraq, but also to serve if called on.” and also stated he intended to remain in the CD1 congressional race even if he were deployed to Iraq. Former A4L President and Army veteran Jake Duesenberg previously interviewed Thomas Beherends, who took Tim Walz’ place after Walz refused to serve. Click here or below:
While Walz was deployed overseas in 2003 in support of the Afghanistan War, he was in Italy, an ally of the U.S. for base security. Tim Walz has never stepped foot on a battlefield in war as a soldier and is not a combat veteran (despite claiming to have carried weapons in war). Things like those mentioned are why then candidate, now Vice President J.D. Vance labeled Tim Walz with stolen valor and why veterans ruthlessly booed and heckled Walz recently at the Capitol. Walz is a fraud and a liar.
Walz has additionally been the worst Governor in the history of our state for freedom by abusing the Constitution. There is a gross irony if the fact that the U of M LAW school will receive their degrees after hearing from the worst abuser of the Constitution in the history of our state. Walz’ record of unconstitutionally locking down our state, closing businesses & churches, allowing Minneapolis to be burned, holding nobody accountable for the riots, raising taxes, increasing the size of government, and having deep ties to Communist China like was recently exposed for his connection to CCP operatives. Lawyers should be protecting the Constitution and rule of law, not seeing a Tyrant as an example of good governance!
The lies continue to pile up for Tyrant Tim Walz and nobody confronts him with more viciousness than Action 4 Liberty! Our nationally and internationally covered state fair booth is FAR MORE popular than the RINO MNGOP’s booth year after year and we swing directly at Walz! See our most recent booth below:
Action 4 Liberty calls out tyrants like Walz directly to their face like A4L President Erik Mortensen did while a masked-up beta male Tim Walz offered him a lemon bar on the House floor! Click here or below:
Or when MAGA Jesse took a picture with Tyrant Timmy while wearing a “Dump Walz” t-shirt on the 4th of July! See below:
When RINOs say “A4L only attacks Republicans” you know that they are lying! A4L calls out all establishment, authoritarian, big government, anti-freedom, anti-grassroots elements of our government and we will continue to do so!
Action 4 Liberty is picking up steam and is growing while the RINOs attack, perhaps they will finally learn that the Grassroots will NEVER shut up and do as we are told!
A4L Hires New Field Specialist for Grassroots Organizing!
Action 4 Liberty is picking up momentum and have growing support among the grassroots. To continue to grow on our success, A4L is proud to announce the hiring of new Field Specialist Hannah Determan!
Hannah is an experienced grassroots organizer that loves fighting for liberty. She has a strong professional background in connecting with activists and mobilizing them to take action! She previously did great work with the Young Americans for Liberty (YAL).
YAL is an allied national organization that identifies, educates, trains, and mobilizes young liberty-minded activists to win. Hannah started as a college campus organizer and quickly grew her chapter to be hugely successful.
She then turned out more people than any other campus recruiter nationally for YAL’s annual convention (YALCON) which puts over 1,000 young liberty lovers in a room to train politically and hear from great speakers like Senator Rand Paul, former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, and UK leader Nigel Farage. A4L President Erik Mortensen even kicked off the 2021 and 2022 YALCONs.
Hannah has also done great work with the State Freedom Caucus Network. This is where the DC Freedom Caucus - who are the most conservative members - have exported their model to the states. In addition, she also leads in other key efforts.
While the RINOs declare war with A4L, we get stronger. Patriots see through smear attempts and A4L will continue to be the bulldog against big government in our state. The Establishment is threatened by us because we fight for the little guy, the Grassroots. Our addition of Hannah to the team will help us as we continue the battle to protect liberty for the next generation!
Keri Heintzeman Rakes in Massive Funding from Lobbyists, RINOs, & State Party Officer in Special Election
Swamp creature Keri Heintzeman’s campaign finance report for the state senate special election appears to have campaign finance violations and is filled with massive funding from lobbyists, RINOs, and a corrupt MNGOP state party officer.
The Minnesota Senate special election in District 6 will take place tomorrow, Tuesday, April 15th. The winner of the primary will face Democrat Denise Slipy in this deep red district which was previously held by Justin Eichorn (who has federal charges for trying to prostitute a minor). Trump won this district by 31 percentage points last year.
Action 4 Liberty has reviewed the campaign finance reports for candidates in the senate special election and have noticed something that would normally seem to be a major violation within RINO Keri Heintzeman’s report. Individuals are limited to donating $1,000 to a candidate during a special election according to the CFB. On Heintzeman’s report, four individuals can be found donating $2,000. See below:
In speaking with the CFB, A4L learned that Heintzeman is allowed to accept what would normally be seen as twice the legal limit from the Nystroms because she received them before the election was called March 25th. The Nystroms are in the behavioral health clinic business. Heintzeman clearly knows how to work the system for her benefit and is raking in major cash in the process. The CFB report can be read in full here.
Keri Heintzeman has raked in over $50K from lobbyists (special interests), RINOs, and a corrupt MNGOP state party officer. Lobbyists buying off Heintzeman before she even gets into office shows that she will do their bidding instead of the bidding of the SD6 constituents. Heintzeman has taken in over $7,300 from lobbyists as of April 8th. Keri is the candidate for the special interests!
KAXE reported on the massive money behind Heintzeman and that the majority of money for this race was raised out of district for Heintzeman, Carnahan, Cotariu (personal loan aside), and Gazelka. See below:
Loyalists to HRCC Chair RINO Josh Heintzeman can be located on a mailer sent to voters from the Heintzeman campaign listing endorsements. Interestingly, Heintzeman leaves unhinged Walter Hudson off the list despite his reposting on her campaign’s content on social media. The legislative endorsements clearly show RINOs who do not want problems with Josh as HRCC Chair so they endorse and enable his corruption. See below:
Heintzeman has also received major funding from RINOs including former GOP House leader Kurt Daudt, former state Rep. Kelly Fenton, failed Governor candidate Dr. Scott Jensen, Laura Merickel (wife of corrupt mega-donor Tommy Merickel), and crazed feminist & MNGOP Secretary Joy Orvis. It is interesting Heintzeman kept these names off of her mailer, including unhinged Walter Hudson who has reposted her content on social media.
Like was highlighted in previous A4L reporting, state party officers are obligated to only support endorsed GOP candidates. No endorsing convention took place for this district which means state party officers should not be placing their thumbs on the scale with endorsements or donations. Being a state party officer requires neutrality and Orvis’ maxxed out contribution to Heintzeman shows clear bias.
In addition to Heintzeman, RINO Paul Gazelka’s son is also running and had some swamp creature backing himself! Josh has gotten thousands from his family, former Xcel Energy CEO Ben Fowke and his wife SD45 BPOU Chair Kathleen Fowke, and former U.S. Congressman Vin Weber. His full report can be seen here.
CFB filings show the following amount of money for each candidate, click name to see report:
Keri Heintzeman - $51,408.80
Josh Gazelka - $11,798.60
Jennifer Carnahan - $11,525.00
Steve Cotariu - $17,557.05 (largely financed from $15K loan from candidate)
Angel Zierden - $3,975.00
John Howe - $2,400.00
Doug Kern - No CFB report available
Matt Zinda - No CFB report available
Action 4 Liberty has also reported on a recent debate in this district where candidate Doug Kern praised our Never Again Pledge. See below:
Liberty Grassroots Wins Leadership Races in CD2; RINO David Hann Condemned
As RINOs of the MNGOP have employed leftist cancel culture tactics against grassroots conservative supporters of A4L (seen recently in the Star Tribune), the grassroots keeps defeating the establishment’s chosen puppets.
The Establishment can feel their grip of the party slipping as grassroots conservatives have won party leadership races and this was seen again in Saturday’s Congressional District 2 MNGOP convention.
CD2 elected a slate of pro-grassroots, pro-freedom candidates for the following offices: Chair, Deputy Chair, Secretary, and Delegate at Large.
Joe Ditto was re-elected as Chair, Natalie Barnes was elected for Deputy Chair, Sara Dutton was re-elected for Secretary, and William Beck was elected Delegate at Large.
In addition to the major leadership victories for the grassroots, a resolution was passed by the delegates to condemn David Hann for secretly paying Kamala supporter Michael Brodkorb tens of thousands of dollars with party funds! Finally the party is condemning the RINO who destroyed the MNGOP instead of the group exposing their corruption! See below:
CD2’s bottom-up leadership selection is an indictment on the bogus attempts to smear A4L. CD2 knows first-hand how corrupt Globalist RINO Tom Emmer and the Establishment is. As A4L reported last year, Emmer installed his puppet candidate, Joe Teirab, as the GOP candidate by essentially paying off the endorsed GOP candidate, Tayler Rahm, to drop out of the race!
Action 4 Liberty is proud to stand with the grassroots and will continue to block the Establishment RINOs from trying to block our supporters from involvement in the party. The grassroots victories in CD2, CD4, and CD7 should make it crystal clear to MNGOP leaders; Liberty conservatives aren’t going anywhere and desperate attempts to smear A4L or purge our supporters from the party will fail spectacularly. The smears make it clear to normal people that we are fighting the establishment and in turn, A4L is stronger and has more support than ever.
The ball is in the MNGOP leadership’s court. Do they want to fight with the most passionate conservatives in our state or do they want to fight against them? Action 4 Liberty will continue leading the charge for principled, pro-freedom, Constitutionalist conservatives.
Tyrant Tim Walz Brutally Heckled by Veterans at Capitol
On Wednesday April 9th, U.S. Military veterans attended a rally at the Minnesota Capitol and let their opinions be known when Tyrant Tim Walz went up to give a speech. As Walz took the stage, boos filled the Capitol rotunda. Video of it can be seen here.
One person can be heard saying “In 2020 you shut down the First Amendment! You shut down churches! You’re a coward!”
It can also be heard in the crowd “You sympathize with the Chinese!” which means the knowledge of Walz’ deep connection to Communist China is growing.
Action 4 Liberty recently reported on Walz’ deep connection to China, longing for a shadow government, and his ties to CCP operatives. A4L has also been the first to report on Walz’ love of the globalist World Economic Forum and its authoritarian leader, Klaus Schwabb.
Many veterans have serious disdain for Walz after he was caught time after time exaggerating and lying about his own military record. This included veterans claiming Walz committed stolen valor by purposefully misstating his military rank and for his early retirement/refusal to serve when called. Former A4L President Jake Duesenberg has interviewed Command Sgt. Major Thomas Behrends, who had to deploy due to Walz’ refusal. The full interview can be seen here.
Walz and Kamala lost ground for Democrats across this country and in Minnesota. The team of a cackling know-nothing puppet and a habitual liar Communist running mate was not what America was looking for in the White House! The lies of Tim Walz continue to pile up and veterans were not about to sit back and politely listen to the load of crap that was coming their way from the podium. Walz gaslit the crowd about fully funding veterans, when it is clear as day that there are veterans in our state suffering.
With Walz desperately trying to stay relevant for a 2028 Presidential campaign, the best way to rip that dream away from him would be to strip him of his precious Governorship in 2026! Weirdo Walz can’t gaslight veterans and many Minnesotans may be too fed up to put up with a third term of Tampon Tim. However, it will take a strong candidate who can unify conservatives to do so. Former failed MNGOP Chair RINO David Hann was previously talking about a Governor run but has been awfully quiet since A4L exposed that Hann was paying tens of thousands of dollars to Kamala supporter Michael Brodkorb! It even appears that Hann’s last interview about a supposed Governor run was with none other than Michael Brodkorb and former Emmer staffer Becky Scherr!
Action 4 Liberty will continue exposing the truth and calling out big government swamp creatures regardless of their political party. Veterans and Minnesotans at large are done with showing deference to radical Democrats, the RINO method hasn’t worked. A4L will continue to champion and raise up the voices of grassroots conservative Patriots!
HEATED GOP Debate in SD6; Conservative Doug Kern Praises Never Again Bill
Following the arrest and federal charges brought against incumbent Senator Justin Eichorn for attempted prostitution of a minor, the seat was vacated and a special election was filed. On Tuesday, a hotly contested debate was held by the Brainerd Lakes Chamber of Commerce & League of Women Voters among the GOP competitors.
Senate District 6 spans across Cass, Crow Wing, and Itasca Counties. Action 4 Liberty has previously reported on the race and the candidates. The primary date is Tuesday, April 15th. The full debate can be viewed here.
During last night’s debate, seven GOP candidates participated while former failed MNGOP Chair Jennifer Carnahan claimed she was sick and could not attend. Instead of speaking with voters directly, Carnahan will instead be known for her attempt to purge A4L grassroots supporters out of the MNGOP, her recorded phone call laughing about her then husband’s eventual death, her connection to convicted child sex trafficker Anton Lazzaro, and refusing to sign the Never Again Pledge.
Of the seven candidates in attendance, only ONE candidate has signed A4L’s Never Again Pledge to prove that he will support the strongest piece of legislation to prevent Walz or any future Governor from ever locking down our state again with abusive Emergency Powers. All other candidates have refused to stand with the conservative grassroots that A4L became the voice for during Covid tyranny. Kern has even made a video explaining why he signed it and why he cares so deeply about this battle. See Kern’s pledge and participation in A4L protests against lockdowns below:
EVERY SINGLE other candidate has flatly refused to sign the pledge and prove to voters that they will fight for freedom! One candidate, veterinarian John Howe, used his wife to convey the message to A4L that he does not have time to read the bill. However, during the debate, Howe brought up two other pieces of legislation that he supports… It sounds like he has time to read other bills, but not a bill on the most critical fight against big government in our lifetime!? While Howe gave good answers on mining and shrinking government, refusing to sign the Never Again Pledge is not a good sign that he would be a fighter.
Doug Kern bragged up the Never Again Bill during the debate and said he will work with anybody to do good. Doug said “People always said, well it’s Action 4 Liberty. No, its Action 4 You” and that he’d talk with people across the aisle to get it passed. Immediately following Doug’s strong answer, candidate Angel Zierden sneered and instead suggested building trust with Democrats and pushing bipartisan bills. Does she not realize Democrats are destroying our state and weak RINOs helping them are the problem?!
Zierden is a potential secret Democrat who endorsed radical leftist Jen Schultz for Congress (CD8) against Pete Stauber. However, that did not stop her from name dropping Stauber in the debate as if she were a supporter, she clearly has zero credibility. Zierden’s debate answers would continually hark back to her institutional knowledge and support for “bipartisanship”, which shows she is weak to Democrat arguments before even getting elected.
Also participating in the debate was RINOs Keri Heintzeman and Josh Gazelka. Josh is the son of RINO Paul Gazelka. Josh spent most of his time trying to sound agreeable but was oddly passionate about lowering corporate taxes. In what was a potential Freudian slip, Gazelka said he was running to serve his “family” which may be true since his father has seemingly lined up an endorsement for him from the gun-control loving, drunk driving Democrat-endorsing, MPPOA. On most issues Josh offered standard Republican thinking, however, at one point Josh said that Democrats are not evil!
Largely absent from Keri Heintzeman’s responses were acknowledgements that she is running for a seat while her husband, RINO Josh Heintzeman, is currently in the State House. While using President Trump as a shield and costume, Keri talked up many issues like school choice. Many wonder why she and her husband both want to play politics over a hundred miles away from their district. Keri has the support of unhinged Walter Hudson via a retweet and has her campaign managed by shady political operative and failed Deputy Chair candidate Kip Christianson.
The debate was interrupted by an attendee, Troy Scheffler, who yelled that Keri was a liar. Troy’s yelling and cursing continued and most of the arguing can be heard in the debate audio. Some viewers told A4L he exposed Keri Heintzeman on the mentioned court case and others say he was out of line and was perhaps drinking beforehand.
Other debate participants included Matt Zinda and Steve Cotariu. While Zinda brought up many good points including HRCC corruption, Josh Heintzeman doorknocking Erik Mortensen’s door for Mort’s opponent, and Heintzeman's revenge plot on a police chief, it was perhaps overshadowed by Scheffler’s interruption and Zinda’s racialized perspective. Sources tell A4L that Zinda is telling people not to vote for him and that he does not want to win. Zinda has also shared a post on social media calling President Trump a pedophile, clearly showing he is not in line with the Trump MAGA era of the GOP.
Steve Cotariu claimed to be a lifelong Republican, however, it appears he donated to Shaky Amy Klobuchar’s Presidential campaign and radical leftist Jen Schultz for Congress (CD8). If Cotariu deserves credit, it was for his public support for “zero base budgeting” which means government making budgets from the bottom up and not simply continuing spending levels. Cotariu also made good points around not electing career politicians, but he is going to need a little magic to win. Unfortunately, Cotariu has refused to sign our Never Again Pledge so he seemingly will not prevent future tyranny by government in the name of things like Covid.
As the only signer of the Never Again Pledge, Doug Kern has made it clear that he will stand up to the Establishment and fight for liberty. The fact that there are Republicans who are afraid to stand up to radical authoritarian policies before they even get into office is a clear sign that they will cave even more once the pressure is on. Doug highlighted other issues including support for mining, deregulation, the Trump tariffs, being 100% pro-life, reducing spending (called for pre-covid spending levels), returning surplus money to the taxpayers, removing DEI from schools, and keeping boys out of girl sports. Kern also mentioned the recent pointless legislative battle about giving wildrice an inherent right to life with similar words and thinking said by Senator Nathan Wesenberg in committee.
Action 4 Liberty will continue to stand with Patriots and fight for limited government. A4L is building momentum thanks to grassroots conservatives and we will continue to be their megaphone!
Royce White Slams MNGOP Chair for Lack of Neutrality on Senate & CD7 Races
Republican U.S. Senate candidate Royce White slammed MNGOP Chair Alex Plechash in a social media post for Plechash’s lack of neutrality in the U.S. Senate and Congressional District 7 contests. See below:
Royce was the party’s endorsed candidate and nominee for the U.S. Senate in 2024. Royce has previously called out former MNGOP Chair RINO David Hann.
MNGOP party officers are required by the party bylaws to remain neutral before a party endorsement is earned by a vote of the delegates. This can be seen in Article IV, Section 8 of the MNGOP Bylaws, see below:
Chair Alex Plechash has already failed in this department as he issued an endorsement on March 19th (on behalf of the party) for incumbent RINO Congresswoman Michelle Fischbach in the CD7 race in clear contradiction of the party bylaws. See below:
Royce White called out Plechash for the public, pre-primary endorsement seen above and also alleges that Plechash is calling Royce’s opponent, Adam Schwarze, the most qualified candidate. Royce also mentions how Schwarze worked for Nikki Haley’s campaign against President Trump. This can be found in a Nikki Haley campaign press release which states that Adam Schwarze was the MN CD5 Co-Chair for Haley.
MNGOP party officers, especially the Chair, should not be placing their thumbs on the scale pre-endorsement. Delegates deserve the opportunity to decide for themselves who they want to endorse without Establishment corruption. There is an incumbency protection racket and RINOs do not care who the local grassroots endorses.
We have reported many times on the corrupt tactics used by RINOs in nominating committees to try to block endorsement or party officer competition like was done to conservative Chris Corey in CD6 against Globalist RINO Tom Emmer, Bret Bussman in his run for MNGOP Chair, Jodi Welsh in her run for CD6 Chair, and A4L Board member Dale Zoerb in his recent run (and victory) for CD4 State Exec.
The endorsement process is a tool for the grassroots to make real change and require higher standards for the politicians that seek to earn their votes. When party officers like CD1 Chair Aaron Farris and CD6 Chair Bobby Benson are paid by the incumbent, who can trust them to run that endorsing convention fairly? Unfortunately those Congressional Districts do not include a provision blocking such corruption. However, this can be found in the MNGOP Constitution (Article 10, Section 4, Part B), see below:
Action 4 Liberty will continue to demand party officers conduct themselves fairly among candidates pre-endorsement and that politicians deliver and fight for liberty.
CD4 GOP Elects RINO Hunter Dale Zoerb for State Exec. Position!
After the party smeared and attacked A4L, the grassroots delegates of CD4 just repudiated the MNGOP State Exec. Board by placing RINO Hunter and A4L Board member Dale Zoerb to be their voice on the very board that passed a bogus condemnation of our organization.
The MNGOP’s 4th Congressional District convention took place this weekend (Saturday, April 5th) in Roseville for the purposes of electing party leadership roles and completing other party business. The convention chair, former Senator Roger Chamberlain, and the convention parliamentarian, Senator Andrew Matthews (SD27), each ran the convention in a fair and objective manner. However, an attempt to hurt Dale Zoerb by the Nominations Committee was unsuccessful as he claimed a seat in the MNGOP's top Exec. Board.
Among the leadership elections at the convention included: Chair, Deputy Chair, Secretary, State Exec. Vice Chair, and CD4 board Vice Chairs. The battle between the grassroots conservatives and Establishment RINOs for these critical leadership roles is persistent throughout the state and can be found in nearly every district.
The most competitive race came out of the State Exec. Vice Chair election, which initially had four candidates participating: Jim Carson, Sue Erickson, John Kysylyczyn, and Dale Zoerb. Unlike the other leadership elections, there was a Q&A section where delegates could submit questions to be answered by each candidate. A rules fight was offered by this article’s author to eliminate the Q&A section which was narrowly defeated via a voice vote. Subsequently, I was then invited to participate in the Q&A committee to help select questions and did so. Despite a couple of different opinions on some of the questions, the selection process was completed fairly and respectfully.
One area of corrupt preferential treatment that was exhibited was through the Nomination Committee (NomCom), which found Dale Zoerb to be “qualified with reservations” and the other three candidates as “qualified”. Zoerb is a very successful business owner who has donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to conservative and Republican causes/candidates and is on the Action 4 Liberty Board of Directors (which is why the NomCom found him “qualified with reservations”). Among other things, during Dale’s speaking time he laid out his vision for this position, the need to support endorsed candidates, called out former MNGOP Chair David Hann for wiping the MNGOP computer data, called out Bobby Benson for being behind the bogus A4L condemnation, and the need to hold GOP politicians accountable while slipping in a few jokes. Dale Zoerb has become known as the “RINO hunter” due to his iconic jacket and hardcore conservative beliefs. Like most of the Grassroots, Dale feels backstabbed by the RINOs who work against conservative interests! See below:
During the Q&A, RINO and Big Pharma lobbyist John Kysylyczyn angrily threw false accusations at A4L and even read through some of our article headlines! Kysylyczyn made libelous accusations against A4L, which he should publicly retract before A4L considers legal action against him. John’s angry and bitter attitude gave him a pathetic last place performance.
Following the speeches and Q&A, the first round of results were as follows:
Dale Zoerb - 31
Sue Erickson - 17
Jim Carson - 13
John Kysylyczyn- 12
After the first round of voting, Carson and Kysylyczyn went on stage and begged their supporters to back Sue Erickson to try to prevent Dale from winning. Unfortunately for them, Dale won a majority of the votes on the next ballot! See results below:
Dale Zoerb - 37
Sue Erickson - 34
As seen above, this was an extremely narrow victory and was only possible due to the grassroots conservatives who participated in Saturday’s convention. The “qualified with reservation” designation has become a weaponized tool to dissuade delegates from supporting a candidate, but that was overcame since the grassroots does not need a select few to tell them who is “qualified” for office. As delegates, they understand they can make up their own mind and don’t need to be guided by the Establishment.
The MNGOP State Executive Board is becoming more and more grassroots each day! As we’ve previously reported, Otter Tail Patriot and leader Nathan Miller recently won the CD7 State Exec. position and Bret Bussman defeated longtime CD7 Chair and Michelle Fischbach staffer Craig Bishop. The very people who the Establishment (like unhinged Walter Hudson) want to disenfranchise and purge from the party are the ones who are getting elected to the highest echelon of the party leadership!
In addition to the CD4 State Exec. Vice Chair race, pro-grassroots Chris Sears was elected Chair with a very large victory margin of 66-17 against John Rheinberger. Chris Sears is a strong conservative activist who worked in support for several campaigns and has plans to grow the party and laid out several goals and missions to accomplish. As a hardcore conservative, Sears was in attendance of the 2023 A4L Christmas Dinner and won a custom tie worn by Senator Nathan Wesenberg on the Senate floor to fight radical Democrat policy that sought to ban gas powered lawn mowers, chainsaws, and other equipment! See below:
The change of leadership in several Congressional Districts is indicative that the Grassroots is paying attention, fighting back, and winning. A few CD conventions still remain and the change within the MNGOP has become unavoidable. Dale Zoerb’s victory shakes up the party and completely REPUDIATES the bogus A4L condemnation passed by the Exec. Board. MNGOP Chair Alex Plechash said organizations that attack Republicans are “poison to the party” then the delegates elected an A4L leader who is known for holding RINOs accountable! Perhaps the party should now retract and apologize for the sham condemnation!
The smears don’t work! They only make us stronger! Patriots can sniff out BS and are throwing it right back at the Establishment. Action 4 Liberty looks forward to the party reconciling with the fact that their attacks against us for holding RINOs accountable have failed yet again. As we see House Republicans pushing a 2026-2027 budget (costs $66.6B) that will spend YOUR surplus dollars, would be the 2nd most expensive budget in MN history, and is more expensive than Walz’ plan, the RINOs and their big government agenda must be exposed! Action 4 Liberty will continue leading the way!
Big Government Politicians Push Debt Bill While State in Fiscal Crisis
If you are searching for big government corruption and crony pet projects for crooked politicians/lobbyists and special interests, look no further than the bonding bill.
A bonding bill is a piece of legislation that plunges our state into debt rather than spending money that they already have. By attaching all kinds of funding for local projects, many RINOs and other Establishment politicians will justify voting for debt if a project is done in their district. Bonding bills require the support of 3/5ths of the Legislature which means that Republicans can block the legislation if they largely stand united against big government.
Action 4 Liberty has previously exposed the corruption surrounding bonding bills, including our coverage of Democrat Senator Sandy Pappas (SD65) who admitted she was running a pay to play scheme with the bill out of retribution for some of the votes taken by Republican Senators. As the Chair of the Senate Capital Investment Committee, 'pay to play' Pappas is typically leading the way for the debt-ridden bonding bill.
Pappas and radical leftist Democrat Senate Majority Leader Erin Murphy (SD64) held a press conference on April 3rd to release a $1.35B target for a bonding bill. Pappas makes the ridiculous argument that a bonding bill that costs less than a BILLION dollars will be “tough to get through the legislature”. In the eyes of conservatives, a bill that costs a billion dollars should be tough to get through the legislature because it is too big, not the other way around!
On the House side, Democrat co-chair of the House Capital Investment committee Fue Lee (59A) is arguing the bonding bill be kept below $700M, but also argues that if it is too low that it may not pass. Due to the 67-67 tie in the MN House, the House Capital Investment committee is co-chaired by Lee and RINO Mary Franson (12B). Lee is likely arguing for a smaller figure due to the tie in the House.
The state budget forecast released on March 6th reduced the state’s bonding capacity for this year from $790M to $700M. Radical Democrats want to spend more than is even fiscally feasible! Minnesota cannot afford more pet projects to assist crooked politicians’ reelection efforts.
Unfortunately, RINOs love debt-ridden bonding bills too! RINO Senator Karin Housely (SD33) released a broad, unspecific statement in support of the legislature passing a bonding bill this session. Housely is the GOP lead in the Senate Capital Investments committee and her willingness to cave, and not outwardly fight the $1.3B plan shows her intentions plainly. She must correct-course and represent the conservative base that elected her instead of representing the lobbyists and special interests. According to the Minnesota Reformer, Housely said Republicans want to pass a bonding bill this session.
Aside from wasting our money, if RINOs pass this bill, they are giving swing district Democrats certain projects to campaign on! Why give your opposition free campaigning material?!? The GOP must learn how to play hard-ball and refuse to put our state in debt!
The GOP has the votes to block the debt-loving Democrat plan. Conservatives have been disappointed with how easily Republicans have caved this session and are demanding the GOP finally fight back. Blocking the bonding bill is a key way for GOP legislators to fight for fiscal responsibility and deliver for their base. Action 4 Liberty will keep Patriots updated as this battle progresses.
Establishment Rep. Walter Hudson Defends Surplus-Killing GOP Budget that Spends More than Walz Proposal
When Democrats have power, they utilize it to its fullest extent. When Republicans have power, they cave to Democrat demands and fail to deliver for their base.
Former A4L President Jake Duesenberg recently published an article breaking down the House GOP’s budget proposal and exposed how their plan:
- Spends $300M more of your tax dollars than the Walz budget (which is also far too big)
- If passed, this will be the 2nd largest budget in MN history
- Spends more money than the state’s projected revenue (how much state brings in through taxes)
- Overspends by $2.1B (which would be taken out of your Surplus)
- Increases budgets for several radical leftist offices, including ANTIFA Keith Ellison
- Budget totals $66.6B (mark of the beast)
- Cements $14B of Democrat budget increases
- Budget does not return the remaining Surplus or the $3.2B in budget reserves
- Gives up all leverage to radical Democrats
Conservatives across our state our livid that Republicans would give up their tied leverage in the State House for a budget proposal that could’ve just as easily been introduced by Democrats! The big government proposal has been flaunted as a bipartisan (uniparty) approach by RINO Speaker Lisa ‘Kamala’ Demuth (13A), who has proven herself to be an empty suit who lacks leadership and negotiation skills. This is no surprise, we have seen her cave on election integrity by allowing radical leftist Brad Tabke (54A) to be seated despite 21 ballots being thrown out in his race that was decided by 15 votes.
Demuth is not alone in defending spineless, anti-conservative GOP budget proposal; The MN House Ways and Means Committee voted UNANIMOUSLY to move the budget forward on April 1st. The budget is coded BudRes02. When crooked Republican and Democrat politicians are on the same page, We The People are getting screwed over.
Some GOP Representatives have even tried, and failed, to publicly defend the bogus budget including unhinged, phony fiscal conservative Rep. Walter Hudson (30A). When Duesenberg exposed how much this budget actually spends and pointed out the numerous flaws, Hudson went on the attack to defend the Establishment’s garbage plan! See the exchange on X below:
As seen above, Walter tries to obfuscate the truth and beat around the bush by attacking Jake instead of addressing the obvious flaws with the budget. While it is true that it is the “largest cut to the budget in state history” it is also true that this is the 2nd largest budget ever for our state! Walter can’t use alternative facts to hide from the truth! This plan spends more than the Walz budget, cements $14B in Democrat spending, and wastes YOUR Surplus dollars!
Many RINOs are showing their true colors with this budget proposal including RINO Ron Kresha (10A) by arguing that Walz’ budget proposal cuts TOO MUCH on education! Our failed public education system has turned schools into Communist indoctrination camps and RINO Ron thinks throwing more money at them will solve the problem! House Republicans (like GOP Floor “leader” Harry Niska, 31A) can also be found sharing the following social media post to mislead their constituents into thinking that they are fiscal conservatives that are returning wasted money to taxpayers. See below:
The state government could function just fine with a lot less money. Just a couple years ago in the 2022-2023 biennium, the state budget was only $52.1B. Why are Republicans not fighting to bring it back down to that level? Why would they rather waste YOUR surplus dollars funding a bloated, heavy-handed, anti-freedom Walz administration?
If the GOP pushed a $52.1B budget and removed the pointless rainy day fund, taxpayers could get $7,720 EACH! Republicans could give the largest rebate checks back to We The People but are instead working with Democrats to spend your money!
Conservatives are more and more disillusioned by Republican politicians who cave to liberal demands without any push-back. There are two liberal political parties in MN, one of them just pretends like they’re not. The big government budget proposal pushed by the GOP proves that crooked politicians do not want to shrink the size and scope of government, they just want to maintain the status quo.
Contact your Senator and Representative HERE to let them know your thoughts on this insane, bloated, Surplus-wasting budget proposal. Pressure is the ultimate tool of the Grassroots to hold their elected leaders responsible. To stop the 2nd LARGEST Budget in Minnesota history, the GOP must correct-course, vote against the budget on the House floor, and develop a new budget that doesn’t take advantage of taxpayers. It is NOT too late for them to do the right thing!
