Walz at Lowest Approval Rating Ever in MN; Only 39% Support

Tim Walz and the fraud regime he has enabled has woken Minnesota voters up. Walz is not the guy he pretends to be, he is a scam-artist who embarrassed MN on the national stage. While Walz was previously able to fool enough voters to cling to power, he is at the end of his rope. Walz now has his lowest approval rating ever in Minnesota with only 39% of voters supporting him and 53% opposed to him!
The blue no matter who, pro-fraud Democrats are the only people who support Tampon Tim. Independents and other moderates now see through Walz. He was forced to drop out of the Governor race, seeking an unprecedented and tyrannical third term, following national exposure of MN’s Somali fraud issue.
When people learn more about Tim Walz, they like him less. When he was installed as Kamala Harris’ VP choice for the UnDemocratic Party, leftists assumed Walz would help the ticket. In reality, Democrats LOST votes and DROPPED in vote percentages while Republicans GAINED votes and GAINED in vote percentages. In Walz’ own “home state”, he underperformed Sleepy Joe Biden’s 2020 support level and increased Trump's support level.
The Star Tribune, KARE 11, and the Hubbard School of Journalism conducted a poll showing that Walz’ approval rating is just 39% while his disapproval rating is 53%! See graphic below:

The polling also showed that 74% of Independents polled believe Republicans or neither party is trustworthy to reduce fraud. See graphic below:
While Walz initially argued that exposing fraud was racist, the evidence was so insurmountable that he had to fold and acknowledge MN’s fraud problem. By lying to voters, he lost credibility. Now, 75% of Independents are concerned with MN fraud and even 67% of Democrats are too! See graphic below:

Tampon Tim now wants to unilaterally install Amy Klobuchar as Governor so she can continue the fraud regime that he, Keith Ellison, and the Uniparty Legislature enabled. With Walz’ approval rating being so low, he has put the Democrats at risk of losing Minnesota’s top political office.

Mike Lindell Leads Governor Primary in New Polling; Full Breakdown

Minnesota’s Governor race is the main focus of many Minnesota voters as Minnesota is guaranteed to have new leadership. Tampon Tim had to withdraw from the race in shame after his fraud regime was exposed nationally. Now, Walz is trying to unilaterally install Klobuchar as his successor but seems to have forgotten that voters are the ultimate deciders of power. Who Klobuchar will face in the general election is to be determined but new polling suggests My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell is in the lead in the GOP primary!
Mike Lindell has big name recognition due to his leadership in election integrity battles and unmistakable presence. Lindell’s signature style, branding, policies, mustache, and presence has made him an undeniable figure in the conservative movement. Due to Lindell’s celebrity status, his support should not be underestimated.
According to new polling released by KSTP, Lindell leads the GOP Governor primary field. As seen below, Lindell leads with 27% with RINO Lisa Demuth and MNGOP-endorsed Kendall Qualls trailing him. See below:

KSTP further broke down the numbers and showed that Lindell is leading amongst GOP voters from ages 18 to 49. In fact, in the 18 to 34 year old age category, Demuth is at an abysmal 5% support! Younger voters appear to be dissatisfied with the corrupt Establishment and sees Demuth as a continuation of that corruption. Young conservatives do not want incrementalism, they are looking for candidates to disrupt the status quo and restore limited government. See breakdown below:
KSTP also did polling on the U.S. Senate race and the Attorney General races in Minnesota. In the GOP Senate polling, pro-abortion and anti-MAGA Michele Tafoya is leading. Since MNGOP-endorsed Adam Schwarze is still gaining statewide name recognition, the polling places him in third place. Schwarze is likely to gain major support as more Minnesotans learn he was endorsed by the party. Like Mike Lindell, 2024 nominee Royce White performs best with young voters. This race is likely to continue shifting as voters learn more about each candidate. See polling and breakdown below:


KSTP also shows Democrat polling that puts fake moderate Angie Craig in the lead. Radical leftist Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan won the Democrat Party endorsement by acclamation after Craig bailed on the convention, knowing she was going to lose badly. Despite Craig’s flailing campaign, KSTP polling somehow puts her in the lead. See polling and breakdown below:


The AG race is the polling that likely gives Republicans the most optimism since radical Socialist Keith Ellison is below 50% in support. If GOP nominee Ron Schutz runs an effective campaign, he could close the gap and ultimately defeat Ellison. In 2022, Ellison won by less than 1% and his unpopularity continues to grow as Minnesota’s fraud regime is exposed. See polling and breakdown below:

Klobuchar & RINO Lisa Demuth are the Only Gov Candidates Taking Lobbyist Money

Minnesotans know that lobbyists and special interests have too much power and use money to control politicians. Buying off politicians sounds like it should be illegal but this system of bribery remains in Minnesota. Unlike donations from grassroots citizens, donations from lobbyists come with strings attached. While almost every Governor candidate this cycle has chosen to reject lobbyist money, Amy Klobuchar and Lisa Demuth have special interests funding their campaigns.
The GOP and Democrats each have seven candidates running in their primaries for Governor. While 12 of the 14 candidates have stayed away from lobbyist dollars, Demuth and Klobuchar are prioritizing special interests over the interests of MN citizens. The pay-to-play political culture has undermined the fight for limited government and maintained a corrupt status quo. The lobbyist and special interests can be seen in both Lisa Demuth’s CFB report and Amy Klobuchar’s report.
Despite all of Demuth’s worthless talk, her actions prove that she is not a change agent. Demuth is a big government politician who cuts liberal deals with Democrats on spending and policy. As many conservatives know, Lisa Demuth voted for EVERY SINGLE bill signed into law by Tim Walz in 2025 and 2026! Every spending bill, every policy bill, and every unconstitutional omnibus bill was supported by Demuth and Walz yet we are told she will be different if she is given even more power.
Interestingly, the lobbyists and special interests donating directly to Demuth’s campaign isn’t the only outside interest controlling her! Demuth’s biggest supporter in this race is out-of-state billionaire Richard Uihlein through a political committee called Restore Sanity. This group is primarily funded by Uihlein through his federal political committee, Restoration of America. Uihlein’s group spent nearly $1.1M trying to win Demuth the endorsement just for her to lose badly. See below:

Since Uihlein is not a Minnesota citizen, it is no wonder that he is out of touch with MN grassroots conservatives! His group even tried to make Demuth out to be some superhero! As if Demuth’s ego wasn’t already big enough! Conservatives do not worship politicians or think that they are the answer to all of our problems, the often are the problem themselves! See the graphic sent out for Demuth’s state convention party below:
Wow! Restore Sanity, a Political Committee funded primarily by an out of state billionaire, spent a whopping $1.1 Million trying to get Lisa Demuth the MNGOP Endorsement...but they failed. pic.twitter.com/3hwJmvQZzo
— Jake Duesenberg - Truth Hurts Show (@jduesenberg) June 16, 2026
Grassroots Republicans across the state have branded Demuth as “Liar Lisa” after she promised to abide by the party endorsement but broke that pledge as soon as she was defeated at the convention. Minnesotans know that Lisa Demuth will lie right to their face.
As stated before, every Governor candidate besides Demuth and Klobuchar has not taken any lobbyist money. Despite this, Lindell out-fundraised Demuth for the second quarter in a row. Lindell raised nearly $649K in Q2 and has an army of grassroots supporters nationwide donating to his candidacy. MNGOP-endorsed Kendall Qualls has also remained competitive in fundraising by raising over $211K in the second quarter.

GOP Candidate Recruitment Reaches New Low, Niska & HRCC Fail to Recruit in 19 Races

One of the basic duties of a political party is to recruit candidates to run up and down the ticket so that no person goes unchallenged. Nobody is entitled to political power and should have to earn it through competition. When a party fails to provide an alternative for voters, single party rule takes over. In 19 state legislative races in MN, the GOP failed to recruit a candidate.
In the 2026 election, GOP candidate recruitment has reached a new low. In fact, GOP recruitment for Minnesota legislative races is at its lowest in over 50 years. It was not since 1974 that Republican recruitment was this low in Minnesota. This indicates a failure by the House Republican Campaign Committee (HRCC) which is chaired by Harry Niska.
Niska was unilaterally installed as HRCC Chair by liberal Lisa Demuth. The House GOP Caucus never voted for Niska to take over as HRCC Chair and the Representatives can only join the leadership of the HRCC by participating in their pay-to-play scheme! They demand that Representatives fork over $25,000 if they want to have power in the political party unit for which they belong. Members are unable to get information about the structure of the HRCC but RINO Jim Nash has become the treasurer according to the Campaign Finance Board website. A4L has also been told by sources at the Capitol that RINO Josh Heintzeman also sits on the HRCC steering committee and supported all the money they sent to unendorsed incumbents last election cycle.
By having the wrong priorities, the HRCC (and the Senate Victory Fund) has given Democrats a big advantage in the general election! In 19 legislative races, Democrats do not have to worry about opposition at all and can direct their energy on statewide and swing district races. On the flip side, there is not a single Republican running unopposed!
While many legislative districts are reliably red or reliably blue, upsets are rare but possible and a party looks weak when they fail to produce a candidate. Not having a full bench of candidates can depress turnout, which hurts candidates up and down the ballot. Even when a district is an absolute lock, there are going to be a decent chunk of people that will vote for an alternative.
In the following 21 races, there is no Republican opposition to incumbent or soon to be incumbent Democrats. These races include SD43, SD59, SD61, and SD62 in the Senate and 18B, 42B, 43B, 44B, 47A, 47B, 50B, 59A, 60B, 61A, 61B, 62A, 64A, 64B, 65A, 65B, and 67B.
While there is no Republican candidate in the 44B and 47B races, there are two independents running against incumbent Democrats. Strategically, the campaigns may receive more votes by running as Independents and they are the only two races where it would have been unwise of Republicans to recruit a candidate. Both candidates had to collect 500 valid signatures in just a two week window.
Navy veteran TJ Hawthorne is running against radical Democrat Leon Lillie after having previously run as a Libertarian against Lillie in 2024. In that race, Lillie received about 56% of the vote. In 47B, Woodbury City Councilwoman Kim Wilson is running against radical, unpopular Democrat Ethan Cha. When first elected in 2022, Cha won with just 53% of the vote and was recently DEMOLISHED in a Democrat primary to replace lunatic burglarizing Senator Nicole Mitchell, where Cha couldn't even win 18% support from his own party. By running as an Independent with government experience, Wilson may be a formidable opponent to Cha.
Individuals in the districts that are unopposed can change this by running as a write in candidate. A write in candidate has until October 15th at 5PM to submit a document to the SOS office to be determined as an eligible candidate and to have the votes cast for them be counted.
Voters deserve options and A4L will always advocate against single-party rule. If Niska and other HRCC officials would’ve made sure there was no Democrat unchallenged, the Democrats would be forced to divide their time, energy, and resources like the Republicans have to. A4L will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.
J.D. Vance Announces Criminal Fraud Referrals for Walz & Ellison

Minnesota is the fraud capital of the world and we are finally seeing Tampon Tim Walz and radical Socialist Keith Ellison have to answer for it. Vice President J.D. Vance announced this week that he referred Walz and Ellison for criminal investigation under the Dept. of Justice’s Fraud Division.
See Vance’s referrals below:
I’ve referred these allegations to DOJ’s new Fraud Division for criminal investigation. Minnesota state officials are not above the law, and if they facilitated fraud, lied under oath about what they knew, or harassed and intimated whistleblowers, they must face justice. https://t.co/EatSBh9Gh6 pic.twitter.com/7JeFcgkTV0
— JD Vance (@JDVance) June 9, 2026
As seen in previous A4L reporting, Florida Congresswoman Anna Paulina Luna made criminal referrals for Walz and Ellison in January.
Walz and Ellison have lied through-out the national exposure of Minnesota fraud. At first, they argued that accusations of fraud were racist. Once the evidence became insurmountable and the federal government had eyes on it, Walz and Ellison pretended they were fighting fraud all along.
The fraud epidemic in Minnesota was overseen by Walz and Ellison but we must also remember that it was the legislature that appropriated our tax dollars to be spent. As Speaker of the MN House, Lisa Demuth voted for every single bill signed into law by Walz which includes all of the budget bills passed in 2025. While some Republicans remained conservative and opposed these bills, Demuth led the RINOs in the House to fund Walz’ fraud regime.
Grassroots conservatives are sick and tired of politicians talking about this fraud and are demanding action be taken. Vice President J.D. Vance will satisfy conservative demands if there is proper follow-through. If the Dept. of Justice fails to capitalize on this moment, MN conservatives will not forget it.
Action 4 Liberty will remain the steadfast, anti-establishment, grassroots conservative organization leading the liberty movement in Minnesota. A4L will never waiver and will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.
Tom Emmer Praises Radical Democrat Angie Craig, Exposes Uniparty

“It’s one big club, and you ain’t in it!” - George Carlin
The Uniparty is made up of Establishment politicians, bureaucrats, and other deep state actors who are destroying our country from within. The march towards big government, Socialism, and Globalism is a bipartisan problem in the DC Swamp. It is not only radical left Democrats that are opposing the America First agenda, it’s RINOs like Tom Emmer too.
Tom Emmer just exposed himself as a member of the Uniparty by publicly praising radical Democrat Angie Craig. This post comes as Craig is running for U.S. Senate and faces a primary against the Democrat’s endorsed candidate: Lunatic Peggy Flanagan. See post below:

Angie Craig is no moderate, she just pretends to be one since Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional district is a swing district. The very first vote Craig took in DC was to support Nancy Pelosi for Speaker and she has been aligned with the radical left across the board. Craig stands with Ilhan Omar across the board and has even said that she regrets voting for the common-sense Laken Riley Act!
Not only is Emmer praising a leftist running for US Senate but he is also refusing to support Minnesota’s Republican-endorsed candidate for US Senate! According to the Star Tribune's Washington correspondent, Emmer and the other RINO MN US Representatives have refused to support Adam Schwarze after he was endorsed at the MNGOP convention!
The refusal for Emmer to align with grassroots conservatives is nothing new, he co-founded the Somali Caucus alongside radical Socialist Keith Ellison! When confronted by constituents for mass-Somali migration into CD6, Emmer berated them and said Somalis are one the fastest assimilating cultures ever! There is a reason Trump labelled Emmer as a "Globalist RINO" and blocked him from becoming Speaker!
Emmer apologists have argued that Emmer was trolling Angie Craig in the post and not exposing himself as a fraud. This means that the only way RINOs can justify Emmer’s post is by claiming he is being dishonest. Unlike RINOs, grassroots conservatives do not want to be lied to or have politicians play games. Additionally, Emmer might know something about trolling after President Trump HUMILIATED Emmer for his love of Somalia!
The big hug between Emmer and Craig shows that their previous “fight” over ICE was all theatrics. Craig wants her Democrat supporters to think she is fighting Republicans and Emmer wants his Republican supporters to think he is fighting Democrats. In reality, they are both Uniparty politicians who agree on all of the issues that oppose the interests of grassroots Americans.

Gov Candidate John Krhin Alleges MNGOP Leaked His Social Security Number

The MNGOP may have screwed up royally. Among all of the mistakes at the state convention, one may cause more problems for the party than others. A candidate for Governor, former Assemblies of God Pastor John Krhin, alleges that the MNGOP leaked his Social Security number during the state convention.
The MNGOP allowing the most personal, identifying information to be in the hands of the public is completely unacceptable. No candidate would ever want to be involved in a party that betrays personal trust.
Krhin competed for the Governor endorsement at the MNGOP convention and was required by the party to complete their Nominations Committee process. This included meeting with the Nominations Committee, submitting a candidate questionnaire, and submitting a background check document which required the candidate list their social security number.
The MNGOP intended to show all of the candidate questionnaires on their website accessed via a qr code. This page has since been taken down from the MNGOP website. Most individuals, including the article’s author, scanned onto the website but did not look closely at the documents. According to Krhin, his candidate questionnaire was sent alongside his background check document and the party posted both. This caused his Social Security number to be publicly accessible for a time period.
Krhin explained more details in an email to supporters, BPOU chairs, and other Republicans. See below:

A4L is not aware of how long Krhin’s Social Security number was listed on the MNGOP website or if any other candidate experienced the same issue. Krhin tells A4L that individuals within the party have apologized profusely for their screw-up. Regardless of how sorry the MNGOP may be, the damage cannot be undone. Krhin’s finances and other personal assets or otherwise have been put at risk. If identity theft or other crime has not been committed against him yet does not mean it cannot happen, a criminal could have gotten his social security number and is waiting for an opportune time to pounce.
MNGOP Chair Alex Plechash and others in party leadership must resolve this issue and ensure that it never happens again. The party continues to find new ways to lose trust with grassroots conservatives and this serves as yet another example of a self-imposed problem by the MNGOP.
Krhin has signed A4L's Never Again Pledge and is running in the primary after being eliminated on the first ballot at the MNGOP convention. Though Krhin struggled to win support at the convention, many delegates loved his message, including the use of “lanterns” by delegates across the convention hall. After a horn sounded during Krhin’s speech, delegates lit their lanterns and created a beautiful display.

See speech below:
TO ABIDE OR NOT TO ABIDE, THAT IS THE QUESTION
— John Krhin (@krhin4gov) June 6, 2026
In December of 2025 one of MN GOP’s top officers presented this very question to me, To Abide or Not to Abide, stating that I wouldn’t stand a chance running for Governor of MN if I chose the latter, not abiding by the GOP… pic.twitter.com/FIpFlOyC4Q
See lanterns below:

A source tells A4L that a MNGOP party official has since offered Krhin a 3-year LifeLock membership to prevent further damage.

RINO Ron Kresha Calls for Democrats to Oppose Wesenberg in GOP Primary Amid New Fraud Scandal

As primaries approach in Minnesota, it has become clear yet again that the Establishment only respects the endorsement process when their hand-selected candidate wins. They demand unity when they win and cause intra-GOP civil wars in the primary when they lose. In Senate District 10, outgoing RINO Rep. Ron Kresha (10A) has openly called for leftist Democrats to vote in the GOP primary to defeat Sen. Nathan Wesenberg and businessman Mark Striemer!
Kresha publicly supported two unendorsed candidates, who are launching their campaigns together on Friday, June 12th. See below:

Kresha then went further and asked for leftist Democrats to vote in the GOP primary to defeat Wesenberg and Striemer! See below:

Ron Kresha is not seeking reelection after A4L pressure and our exposure of PPP loan fraud allegations. Kresha has been condemned by the Morrison County GOP due to his leftist voting record which includes authoring a bill to give $5M to lawyers to stop the deportation of illegal aliens, voting to condemn J6 protesters, increasing Keith Ellison’s budget, voting to give $1.3M to fund a LGBTQIA2S+ Council, and much more. Kresha has lost the trust of grassroots conservatives and showed himself the door before he was set to be ousted.
Wesenberg and Striemer are both endorsed candidates with Wesenberg seeking reelection and Striemer running for the House seat currently held by Kresha. Wesenberg was uncontested at the SD10 endorsing convention and Striemer defeated two opponents, one being Brian Lindquist, to win the House endorsement.
Lyin' Lindquist put, in writing, that he would abide by the endorsement so he could get the delegate list. This is required to receive MNGOP data access. See email from Lindquist obtained by A4L below:

As seen above, despite signing the pledge to abide, Brian Lindquist is running anyway! The first political action Lindquist has taken is to lie to delegates and put his ego ahead of all else. While Wesenberg and Striemer could have instead helped out Republicans in swing districts, they are now occupied with primary challengers of their own.
Wesenberg’s opponent, insurance agent Deb Holthaus, did not compete for the endorsement and filed for office on the very last day of candidate filings. This sneaky tactic will likely rub locals the wrong way since she could have been much more transparent about her intentions. Holthaus is also openly supporting unendorsed RINO Lisa Demuth for Governor, proving that she has no respect for the grassroots endorsing process at all. As seen below, Hothaus’ business has a Lisa Demuth sign hanging in the window. See below:

Holthaus is supporting RINO Lisa Demuth and is supported by RINO Ron Kresha! She could not make it any more clear that she is out-of-touch with the grassroots conservatives of her district! Locals in the district also tell A4L that Holthaus is NOT pro-life! On the other hand, Wesenberg is supporting endorsed candidates and has a 100% pro-life voting record, including his Senate floor fight to defund abortion/Planned Parenthood.
In typical Ron Kresha fashion, he has also found himself in another fraud problem! KSTP began investigating a cemetery in Kresha’s district that he is connected to. According to KSTP, the cemetery listed two dead people in their tax filings as being on the board of directors, the caretaker received a suspicious salary raise, and the cemetery has not received proper up-keep like mowing and trimming. This cemetery received local pushback in 2022 for similar frustrations. See video below:
When asked by KSTP if he knew that two dead people sat on the board of directors, Kresha just laughed and said no. Despite being purportedly clueless about this issue, Kresha was attempting to give this cemetery $200K in your tax dollars! In the last legislative session, Kresha authored a bill last year, HF3171, that sought to funnel your tax dollars to a cemetery with major fraud issues.
Kresha has lost the respect of locals and his support is more of a detriment than a help to his selected candidates. When RINOs openly oppose the will of the people and attempt to undermine it with primary challenges, the grassroots sees through their games. Kresha was not able to win a delegate spot to the SD10 convention and therefore could not vote in the endorsement race for his successor. Kresha knows he can no longer win anything so he found a couple of proxies to fight on his behalf.
Grassroots conservatives are rallying behind the MNGOP's endorsed candidates up and down the ticket. Despite the RINOs sneaky primary challenges, Wesenberg touts endorsements including from the SD10 delegates, Sen. Rob Farnsworth (SD7), Sen. Cal Bahr (SD31), Sen. Bill Lieske (SD58), Sen. Eric Lucero (SD30), Sen. Michael Holmstrom (SD29), Sen. Michael Kruen (SD32), Aitkin Co. Sheriff Dan Guida, Rep. Ben Davis (6A), Rep. Drew Roach (58B), deer farmer Steve Porter, MNGOP-endorsed US Senate candidate Adam Schwarze, and more.
One individual who has publicly stayed silent on the matter thus far is Rep. Isaac Schultz (10B). As the only endorsed candidate without a primary challenge, this moment will prove if Schultz wants to align with grassroots conservatives or the RINO Establishment.

Bitter RINO Dave Osmek Throws Tantrum, Quits MNGOP

The double-standards and hypocrisy of RINOs is always exposed when they lose. The RINOs know they are losing their grip over the party with grassroots conservatives outnumbering them. The Establishment has long been able to control the narrative and swat down the grassroots at political conventions but that time has come to an end. Delegates proved at the MNGOP state convention that they are in the driver’s seat now and RINOs like Dave Osmek are throwing a tantrum and quitting the party because of it.
As heard on WCCO radio, former MN Senate President and RINO legislator Dave Osmek, announced he is quitting the party because he didn’t get his way at the convention. Grassroots conservatives have endured convention after convention of things not going their way but they stayed the course and continued fighting. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, crybaby Dave Osmek is losing his mind.
Osmek is desperate for attention and relevancy as he realizes he is out-of-touch with the GOP base. Osmek admits that he was fighting a losing battle and insulted delegates who voted differently than him, calling them “flat-earthers” and wearing “tin foil hats”. Osmek says it is not just him who thinks the grassroots is dumb, it's most of the state legislature! He is admitting that the RINOs in St. Paul are not actually aligned with the grassroots!
As seen in previous A4L reporting, our grassroots supporters proved that they are more powerful than all of the RINO legislators at the state convention combined! The grassroots held the line and refused to be swayed by Demuth apologists in the Governor race. This fact TRIGGERS Dave Osmek because he blames Action 4 Liberty and another group, Rocks and Cows, for the grassroots takeover!
Osmek goes even further by claiming that A4L is corrupt because we demand candidates sign the Never Again Pledge, proving they will never allow tyrannical lockdowns imposed unilaterally again in Minnesota, and we inform voters of who refuses to sign! According to RINOs like Dave Osmek, transparency for conservative causes is now “corruption”. There is a reason he and other RINOs are losing support while we gain support: We tell the truth and the Establishment has to distort, misrepresent, or lie about us to save face.
Many political observers see Osmek’s tirade as another example of sour grapes, especially considering he was once an advisor for Kendall Qualls and was considered to be Qualls’ running mate. As Osmek did ahead of the convention, he issued attacks against Quall’s Lt. Gov nominee, Brian Nicholson, over a civil lawsuit concerning certain business practices. Like anyone else in this country, Nicholson is afforded the right to be innocent until proven guilty, despite Osmek’s attacks. Interestingly, it did not appear that this line of attack was used against Nicholson at the state convention, perhaps due to fears that Nicholson would sue for slander or something of the kind.
Speaking of false statements made by Osmek, he falsely claimed on the radio show that the MNGOP said voting clickers were “hacked” at the convention. No such thing was ever said by the party while technological errors occurred. A4L has previously reported on the issues with the voting clickers, though they did not impact the ultimate result of the grassroots coallessing behind Kendall Qualls in the Governor race.
Before defending the crooked HCMC bailout by Demuth and RINOs, Osmek made sure to attack MNGOP endorsed U.S. Senate candidate Adam Schwarze and prop up pro-abortion, anti-MAGA Michele Tafoya. Osmek attacked Schwarze for not condemning the Derek Chauvin moment of silence that garnered national media attention. While the action was stupid and unnecessary, Schwarze says he was not in the room when it happened. For what it is worth, this article’s author was also not in the convention hall when this took place. Someone who was in the room was Dave Osmek, who did nothing to stop it when it happened but is happy to complain about it after the fact and attack Schwarze for it, who had nothing to do with it.
The endorsement process is under threat because the Establishment cannot believe that grassroots conservatives have taken over. Dave Osmek calls for the endorsement process to be eliminated in Minnesota, which would strip power from grassroots conservatives like you. Osmek has made it very easy for Republicans to say "good riddance" to his exit!
The Establishment is livid that A4L supporters are awake, active, knowledgeable, and principled. Our organization is grassroots driven because we know we would be nothing without you. We will never waiver in our mission to protect liberty for the next generation and we will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.
America First Conservative Chris Corey Challenges Globalist RINO Tom Emmer Again

The Establishment has not learned that telling grassroots conservatives to sit down and shut up comes back to bite them. Patriots who want to save our nation should not be shunned and dismissed, they should be elevated. The status quo is not working and self-described "U.S. Citizens First" conservative Chris Corey is aiming at Minnesota’s swampiest swamp creature of them all: Globalist RINO Tom Emmer.
See Chris Corey filing for office below:

President Trump previously BLOCKED Emmer from becoming Speaker of the House and labeled him a Globalist RINO. Emmer was also labeled as "the worst of all of them" by Charlie Kirk. Since then, Emmer has sucked up to Trump and his groveling has seemingly gained him Trump’s temporary approval. This in mind, more and more voters know that Emmer is still the same big government, anti-freedom career politician he’s always been. Now he’s just adding some MAGA rhetoric to his speeches but delivering no results.
As seen in previous A4L reporting, Tom Emmer co-formed the Somali Caucus with radical leftist Keith Ellison, supported mass-migration of Somalis into MN and CD6, partnered with Amy Klobuchar to send Somalia welfare, and fought to allow the fraud-ridden Somali remittance program (which is the main cause of MN tax dollars funding Somali terrorist group Al-Shabaab). Emmer has berated his constituents for having issues with Somali mass migration, even arguing that Somalis are one of the fast assimilating cultures. Emmer's record was so embarrassing that Trump trolled and humiliated him publicly for it!
Emmer’s voting record is abysmal and to make matters worse, his job as GOP Whip is to twist the arms of politicians so they join him in taking bad votes! Votes putting our nation in debt, prioritizing the money-laundering Ukraine War over American interests, certifying the tampered results of the 2020 Presidential election, and opposing the release of the Epstein Files is the legacy of Tom Emmer.
Chris Corey is a professional golf caddy by trade and a through-and-through conservative. His story starts with trying to ask Emmer a question at his BPOU meeting about the spending deal he voted for that increased the debt limit for Biden. Just like he is now, Chris was upset about out-of-control DC spending and Emmer was part of the problem instead of the solution. Chris challenged Emmer in 2024 but Emmer’s cronies were so afraid of his message that he wasn’t allowed to speak and was KICKED OUT of the CD6 endorsing convention! Despite following every rule laid out in their Constitution and meeting with the nominations committee, Emmer puppets deemed him “unqualified”.
Corey refused to be silenced and filed to put his name on the ballot in 2024. Though he did not actively campaign, Chris won over 3,200 votes in the primary against Emmer. Chris Corey outperformed GOP challengers to incumbents in CD1 and CD8, highlighting Emmer's increasing unpopularity among grassroots conservatives.
This year, Chris Corey says he is planning to run a stronger campaign and hopes to expand his support. He officially filed for office on Tuesday, June 2nd. See filings below:

As seen above, Chris Corey is the second Republican challenger to Emmer this year. Another candidate, Mike Foley, is also running this cycle.
A4L previously reported on Foley’s candidacy against Tom Emmer, including Foley confronting Emmer at a GOP convention for being unresponsive to his constituent messages. Emmer denied being hard to reach and then ran off, refusing to address the issue Foley was raising.
Foley has centered his campaign around Emmer’s unwillingness to engage with constituents. Foley has said he wanted to share information about stolen valor allegations against Florida Congressman Cory Mills but Tom Emmer was unwilling to hear out those concerns. As a Iraq War veteran and Marine, this issue especially bothered Foley and it has seemingly led him to this point.
Unlike Chris Corey, the CD6 convention allowed Foley to compete for the party endorsement, which he lost handedly to RINO Tom Emmer.
Sources tell A4L that some conservatives expressed doubt of Foley during the CD6 convention due to some anti-ICE positions he has expressed and due to naive thinking on Somali fraud and mass migration, though they can learn more about Foley on his campaign website. Now that there are two options for anti-Emmer Republicans, voters are given a broader selection.
Action 4 Liberty will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.
