Control of the state legislature will come down to a few swing districts in the 2026 election and Democrats are desperate for power. Democrats are willing to do or say anything no matter how ridiculous, insane, or fictitious the claims they make are.

In particular, district 41B is currently held by Republican Tom Dippel after he won the general election in 2024 by 2%. Dippel is now running for the state Senate against leftist Judy Seeberger, which makes the 41B House seat an open race that Republicans want to hold and Democrats want to flip. 

In the Democrats’ fight for the 41B seat, a leftist group has sent out a mailer claiming the Democrat candidate, Jen Fox, is raising five children. In reality, locals tell A4L that she has zero children! See mailer below:

As seen above, the mailer is not jam-packed with information, it’s only five sentences long! The leftist group that sent this mailer out, Minnesota Values Project, is actually the DFL House Caucus! As seen on their website, the independent expenditure is prepared and paid for by the DFL House Caucus. Furthermore, the mailer’s return address lists the DFL state party, which shares the same address as the DFL House Caucus. To protect privacy, we have hidden the name and address of the recipient. See below:

The DFL House Caucus is either INTENTIONALLY lying to garner sympathy or they are lazily copying and pasting words from one mailer to the next. Of course, it is perfectly acceptable to not have children but your party cannot falsely claim that you do! As of publishing this article, the DFL House Caucus has put out no retraction or correction.

Fox’s opponent is William Beck who is a lab technician, former educator, former SD41 GOP Chair, and a conservative activist. Unlike Fox, William Beck actually is a parent and has two children. As seen on Beck’s campaign website, he has two sons and has become a fierce advocate for disability services after one of his sons was diagnosed with down syndrome. In response, Beck has raised thousands of dollars for down syndrome organizations in Minnesota.

The link printed on the mailer directs people to a list of insane leftist attacks against Beck. This includes claiming he wants toxic water, saying he would be captive to big pharma lobbyists, faulting him for legislative votes he’s never taken, and even blaming him for the White House ballroom! It should not have to be explained that a State Representative has NOTHING to do with the White House ballroom! By asserting nonsensical claims, Democrats lose more and more credibility.

Corrupt politicians will spread lies and misinformation about anyone who could block their path to power. The Democrats’ group “Minnesota Values Project” also has active links with mostly identical attacks against Republican candidates in the following House Districts: 11A, 14B, 18A, 26A, 33B, 34A, 35B, 37A, 41A, 41B, 48B, 54A, and 57B. Despite voting with Democrats constantly, RINO Danny Nadeau (34A) was not spared from the attacks, showing how there is no benefit to caving politically. There are eight other links for districts that appear to be inactive including 14A, 32B, 35A, 36A, 40B, 45A, 55A, and 58A. 

A4L will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else. 

Corrupt DC politicians have made millions upon millions of dollars due to insider trading. Politicians profit off of the crimes that would lock up normal Americans. This behavior won’t only be found with Nancy Pelosi, we can see this with Minnesota’s own CD3 Congresswoman, Kelly Morrison. Despite Morrison being in her first Congressional term, it didn’t take her long to find ways to get rich.

CD3 Republican nominee Tyler Bass has exposed some of the stock trades that Morrison has made in Congress, including that Morrison has made 116 total trades in Congress, some of which are defense contractors. What Tyler Bass shows on his website is that Kelly Morrison profited off of war!

Bass points to a stock purchase by Morrison on 3/11/26, just nine days after the US entered the war with Iran, into a company called Saronic Technologies, a defense contractor building autonomous naval warships for the Navy. Bass further states that Saronic had just been awarded a $392M production contract!

Kelly Morrison pretends to be opposed to military conflict with Iran despite making money off of it!

See a list compiled by Bass’ campaign of defense, space, and AI stocks that Morrison has made in Congress below:

While members of Congress are supposed to disclose financial trades, Bass says Morrison failed to do so eight times! Bass states that Morrison’s trades were worth somewhere between $1.41M and $2.91M.

The Star Tribune reported that Morrison had more trades in a three-year window than 490 members of the House and Senate were. They further said that Morrison’s net worth is valued at $41M. Despite being a leftist news outlet, Morrison refused to answer questions from the Star Tribune. Instead, Morrison blamed the trades on her investment advisor and put out a statement saying that she would divest ownership from individual stocks while simultaneously and ironically attacking “unfathomable levels of corruption and self-enrichment coming from the White House”. Despite her previous stock trades, Morrison claims to support legislation banning elected officials from trading individual stocks.

Tyler Bass became the GOP nominee by defeating never-Trumper Quentin Wittrock. As seen on Bass' campaign website, Bass states that Wittrock personally told him that he voted for Hillary Clinton in 2016, Joe Biden in 2020, and Kamala Harris in 2024. Despite Wittrock having the party endorsement and a major financial advantage, over 55% of CD3 GOP voters selected Tyler Bass to be their nominee. 

Corruption is rampant and you don’t have to look hard to find it. Action 4 Liberty will never waiver on principle and will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based news that cannot be found anywhere else.

Nothing depresses conservative turn-out like the nomination of a RINO who has been rejected by the grassroots. As conservatives learn that Demuth maintained the corrupt status quo and voted to fund all of the Somali fraud signed into law by Tim Walz, they see no way to be truly represented. When Republican voters see very little difference between GOP and Democratic nominees, some of that base will stay home on election day.

The Establishment’s conventional logic has been to nominate as left-wing of a Republican as they can to supposedly appeal to centrists. In reality, most voters already have their minds made up and the path to victory is based on turn-out. Avoiding controversy is no way to inspire voters, in fact, the Republican that received the most votes in Minnesota history is President Donald Trump, who happens to be very controversial!

Decision Desk HQ, an election results application, has given Amy Klobuchar a 91% chance of victory in the Governor race against Lisa Demuth. See below:

It gets even worse for Demuth on prediction markets where individuals put their money where their mouth is. As of publishing, Demuth has a 7% chance on PredictIt, a 5% chance on Polymarket, and a pathetic 4.5% chance on Kalshi! 

Demuth is not even trying to rally liberty lovers. She lied about abiding by the party endorsement and refuses to sign the Never Again Pledge to prevent any future tyrannical lockdowns. In the House, Demuth KILLED the Never Again Bill despite tens of thousands of Minnesotans wanting it passed. Like Kamala Harris' infamous word salads, Demuth fails at answering direct questions, which is a major turn-off for voters.

Action 4 Liberty will never sugar-coat things or mislead people. Demuth’s horrible poll numbers are her own fault, not grassroots conservatives. A4L will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.

While most people have to work for a living, the MNGOP has scheduled a special State Central convention at 1PM on a Tuesday. This convention will take place on September 1st in Plymouth and has been scheduled for the purpose of holding endorsement votes for RINOs Michele Tafoya, Lisa Demuth, and Scott Jensen. While some see it as a forgone conclusion that Tafoya, Demuth, and Jensen will be endorsed, others see it differently.

The party endorsement is very significant because it carries party resources, finances, and volunteers that a candidate would not have access to otherwise as required by Article IV, Section 3, Subsection A, #5 of the MNGOP Constitution. If party endorsements are withheld at this convention, the MNGOP may be forced to only put statewide resources behind SOS nominee Tad Jude and AG nominee Ron Schutz since they are Republican-endorsed candidates.

While Tafoya and Jensen did not pledge to abide by the party endorsement decided at the May State Convention, RINO Lisa Demuth did. After losing by over 23% in the final round for the Governor endorsement, Demuth announced her Establishment-backed campaign would continue. Now, State Central delegates get to decide if they want to now give endorsements to the candidates who undermined their delegate roles.

First of all, Article II, Section 5 of the MNGOP Bylaws requires that at least 30% of the State Central delegates from at least 29 counties be in attendance to establish a quorum (the number of people needed in a meeting to conduct business). A strict interpretation of this bylaw would require that the quorum only apply to delegates and not alternates. This means that if enough delegates or counties are not in attendance, the meeting would have to be adjourned and no endorsements could be offered.

If a quorum is established, the endorsements are still not guaranteed. Article IV, Section 3, Subsection D of the MNGOP Constitution requires that a candidate receive 60% of the vote to be endorsed. 

There is major dissatisfaction among grassroots conservatives with RINOs Michele Tafoya, Lisa Demuth, and Scott Jensen. Online betting markets currently show Tafoya and Demuth with abysmal odds of winning the general election, with Tafoya at 8% chance of winning and Demuth at an even more pathetic 5% chance. Some GOP delegates may take these figures into consideration and suggest the state party only spend funds on someone like Ron Schutz, who is tied in KSTP/Survey USA polling with radical leftist AG Keith Ellison. See polling below:

It is not unheard of for the MNGOP to withhold the party endorsement after the primary election, in fact we can look as recently as 2024 for an example. Carpetbagging Emmer puppet Joe Teirab was defeated for the CD2 Congress endorsement but he continued his campaign after pledging to abide by the results. Then, his party-endorsed opponent suddenly withdrew from the race due to Globalist RINO Tom Emmer getting him a job. Due to lying to delegates and being out of touch with grassroots conservatives, CD2 Republicans voted to not give RINO Joe Teirab the endorsement after the primary.

Side note: In the process of researching the party documents on the MNGOP's "Party Resources" webpage, it was discovered that their hyperlink for Robert's Rules of Order goes to a Vietnamese website about streaming soccer games. 

Action 4 Liberty will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.

Corrupt politicians use every bit of power they have to tilt the scale, rig the game, and punish their enemies. When Democrats play these dirty games, one would expect Republican legislators to stand unified in opposition. In Minnesota, that is almost never the case thanks to spineless RINO leadership by politicians like Lisa Demuth.

As seen in recent KSTP reporting, a court ruling struck down a part of the 2025 transportation omnibus bill (HF14) due to it being unconstitutional. This provision was pushed by radical Democrat House leader Zack Stephenson and sought to take about $6 Million from Anoka County and give it to the city of Anoka. The county called it political revenge, evidenced by text messages between Stephenson and the Mayor of Anoka, Erik Skogquist. In part, they wanted to punish the county for trying to build a jail.

As seen below, Harry Niska was quick to celebrate the court ruling and condemn Stephenson’s actions. See video by clicking below:

One detail Niska does not tell people is that he and the Republican House leader, Lisa Demuth, voted for the bill that contained Stephenson’s revenge politics! 

When HF14 was debated on the House floor, Niska proposed an amendment to resolve this issue (see video). Lisa Demuth and several other legislators chose not to vote at all on the amendment, causing it to fail. Demuth was not absent, in fact, she was presiding over the House with gavel in hand. See no vote captured for Demuth in the bottom right hand corner. In addition, Patti Anderson (33A) was the only Republican voting with Democrats against this amendment. See Amendment vote below:

Then, Niska and Demuth voted for the corrupt, multi-subject, unconstitutional omnibus bill KNOWING this sneaky provision was in there! See bill vote below:

As seen above, 44 out of 67 House Republicans voted no. In the State Senate, all but one Republican voted no. Despite the vast majority of elected Republicans demanding the Democrat revenge politics be eliminated, Lisa Demuth and 22 other RINOs gave the Democrats exactly what they wanted. Demuth is either the worst negotiator on the planet for conservatives (incompetent) or she isn't actually conservative (a fraud).

This bill was a part of the corrupt backroom deals that Lisa Demuth cut with her Uniparty fishing buddy Tim Walz.

Despite RINO Lisa Demuth killing Niska's amendment and voting for the corrupt unconstitutional bill, Harry Niska was spotted at the MNGOP state convention sporting Demuth for Governor apparel like many other RINO legislators. The very person who failed Republicans is who Harry Niska wants to give more power to.

Action 4 Liberty will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.

The former Majority Leader of the Minnesota State Senate, RINO David Senjem, is showing his true colors by publicly propping up and posing with Democrat Governor candidate, entitled Amy Klobuchar. Grassroots conservatives already understand that there is a uniparty and this is just another example of them no longer hiding it.

As seen in the social media post below, Senjem attended a recent event with Klobuchar and posed for a picture with her. See below:

Senjem was in the State Senate for twenty years with six of those years being the Senate GOP majority/minority leader. Senjem was a loyal vote to the Establishment and would vote for corrupt, fraud-ridden, unconstitutional omnibus bills. As seen in the 2022 A4L Scorecard, Senjem finished his legislative career with a pathetic 18% lifetime score. This means Senjem would vote against liberty the vast majority of time on crucial votes.

In 2019, RINO David Senjem was the chief Senate author of a bill (SF658) that would spend $2 Million of tax money to fund a Somali grant program for arts and cultural heritage programs. Senjem only removed his name as the chief author after receiving backlash. See bill below:

Senjem is currently the Chair of the Olmsted County Commissioners and has shown his big government ideology through his political record and alignment with fake moderate Amy Klobuchar.

Of course, it should be noted that GOP candidate for Governor, RINO Lisa Demuth, is a Uniparty politician in her own right. After hitting the lake with her fishing buddy Tim Walz, Demuth cut backroom deals with him that funded Somali fraud, funded abortion, increased Keith Ellison’s budget, a bonding bill that gave MN over $1.2 Billion of debt, and passed the second biggest state budget in MN history. 

As seen in recent A4L reporting, Demuth is getting crushed by Klobuchar in polling and political betting markets. Demuth is already struggling to win the support of grassroots conservatives who have refused to support her thus far and now she also has RINOs working against her. My Pillow founder Mike Lindell and his running mate Phillip Parrish have not conceded the Governor race and are pursuing legal challenges to provide a recount and audit of the primary race. One of the lawsuits was served via email and physical mail to Demuth and her running mate Ryan Wilson on Friday, August 21st.

George Carlin was right when he said “It’s a big club and you ain’t in it”. The Uniparty controls crooked politicians in both the Republican and Democratic parties and it could not be any more clear than the Governor’s race. 

Action 4 Liberty will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else. 

The land of the free was never meant to be a police state. One of the most dangerous ways that the government has expanded mass surveillance is with Flock cameras. These cameras are used to warrantlessly capture and store the data of license plates of all passing vehicles and provide mass video surveillance. While corrupt government officials have allowed this to go on, Wright County Commissioners voted 4 to 1 to defund the Flock camera program due to pressure from grassroots citizens.

As seen in the 8/18/26 Wright Co. Commissioner meeting (starting around the 21 minute mark), a vote was held on a formal request to the sheriff to have no funding for Flock cameras in the 2027 budget. It was noted in the meeting by Commissioner Chair Darek Vetsch that this request had no statutory or legal requirement for the county sheriff to abide by this motion. He further called the motion “political grandstanding” and urged for collaboration with the sheriff. One commissioner also stated that they have been trying to get this issue onto the agenda for 3 weeks. 

Despite the discussion and vote on the Flock camera issue, the issue was not listed on the meeting agenda. The issue appears to have been spearheaded by Commissioners Jeanne Holland and Nadine Schoen. Only Commissioner Tina Diedrick voted no. 

Wright County Sheriff Sean Deringer was not at the 8/18/26 meeting but it was said that he will be at the upcoming 8/25/26 meeting where Flock cameras will again be discussed. Since Flock cameras are in use in Wright County, it is fair to assume that Sheriff Deringer supports their use. It was said in the meeting that Sheriff Deringer was in communication with Flock’s CEO.

As discussed in previous A4L reporting, the CEO of Flock is a Globalist who wants to eliminate prisons. He wants criminals on the streets so regular citizens demand public safety, thus creating a desire for mass surveillance. Even if the CEO of Flock had the best of intentions, spying on law-abiding citizens is antithetical to what America is supposed to be all about.

Chair Vetsch also admitted in the Commissioner meeting that it was public pressure that caused action to finally take place! He specifically said about Sheriff Deringer that “He’s probably getting a lot of pressure, as we are with the public trust on it.”

Minnesota’s Department of Public Safety has published the locations of all Flock cameras in the state and the county or city that is authorizing their use. That listing can be viewed here.

Counties and cities across Minnesota should take action to protect the individual liberties of their constituents. Flock cameras are dystopian and if people do not fight, they may not be able to fight again.

Action 4 lIberty will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else. 

The RINOs say that the GOP has to water down their message and abandon core conservative principles in order to win. In reality, spineless politicians fail to inspire voters and the base does not turn out to vote. Despite this obvious fact, the MNGOP selected RINO Lisa Demuth to be the party’s nominee, largely thanks to the millions of dollars funneled in from an out of state billionaire, and is set to be destroyed in the general election.

New polling from KSTP/Survey USA shows Klobuchar with over 50% support and holding a 16 point lead over Demuth. As seen in the results, Demuth is polling at just 36%. So much for being the "electable" Republican in the primary. See below:

KSTP reports that this poll included 661 likely voters and has a 4.3% credibility interval (margin of error). This poll also featured the Green Party candidate for Governor, Steve Young, who will be the only other Governor candidate on the general election ballot besides Klobuchar and Demuth. Some demographics of the poll results can be seen below:

Republicans had a massive opportunity in the 2026 election thanks to national exposure of MN’s fraud regime. Instead of capitalizing on this chance, the GOP nominated the candidate who funded ALL of the fraud as Speaker of the House! Republicans caved on their values and it appears it was all for nothing!

To start the legislative session out, Demuth certified Democrat election fraud (Brad Tabke) which guaranteed the GOP would not have a true House majority. Then, Demuth cut backroom deals with Tim Walz to corruptly pass unconstitutional, fraud-ridden omnibus bills including a bonding bill that gave Minnesota over $1.2 Billion of debt. Demuth funded the very fraud she claims she will stop as Governor!

Demuth voted for every single budget bill signed into law by Tim Walz in 2025 (the budget year). This includes all of the daycare fraud, autism center fraud, and other Socialist programs for Somalis. In fact, Demuth voted for the Health and Human Services omnibus bill (HF2435) that funded BOTH abortion and Somali fraud! Of course, Klobuchar has voted for her fair share of taxpayer-funded fraud in the U.S. Senate which means both major party nominees have no credibility on one of the top issues for voters.

In the primary elections, Klobuchar won nearly 90% of Democratic voters while Demuth won about 43% of Republican voters. The majority of Republican voters chose someone other than Demuth on the ballot and she is not guaranteed those votes in the general election. She will have to earn the votes of conservatives or she will lose in spectacular fashion. Additionally, Democrats had over 272,000 more voters in their Governor primary than the Republican's which shows Democrats are generally more motivated to vote in this election cycle. 

My Pillow founder Mike Lindell has not yet conceded the race for Governor and has now created a fund for a statewide hand recount and audit of the Governor primary election.

On Polymarket, where betters put their money where their mouth is, Klobuchar has a 95% chance of winning the general election as of 8/20/26. This shows that engaged political observers have completely counted Demuth out. See below:

The MNGOP is in this position in part because the party failed to support the endorsed candidates. In all but one statewide GOP primary, an unendorsed candidate was victorious. This is because MNGOP Chair Alex Plechash propped up Michele Tafoya's U.S. Senate campaign and excused Demuth’s primary campaign after she lied to Republicans by saying she would abide by the party endorsement. If the party wants to ever have a chance at retaking the Governor’s office, they cannot cave on their principles or undermine the grassroots and the endorsement process. 

GOP voters may be more apt to focus on the Secretary of State race or the Attorney General race than RINO Lisa Demuth’s Governor campaign since KSTP/Survey USA polling shows Republican Ron Schutz tied with radical Socialist Keith Ellison. See below:

Action 4 Liberty will continue to deliver hard truths that cannot be found anywhere else.

Property taxes are exploding in Minnesota which is making life even more unaffordable for homeowners. Instead of being rewarded for purchasing, developing, and maintaining land, property owners are being punished. In Dakota County, the county commissioners are looking to pass a MASSIVE property tax increase while inflation has made life unaffordable.

The property tax levy proposals being offered by the Dakota County Commissioners includes tax increases ranging from 13.9% to 24.3%. This would increase many homeowners taxes by hundreds of dollars annually. These tax hike plans come as property taxes are already sky-high across Minnesota. 

While Dakota County residents would like to see Commissioners’ work session and discussion of the various property tax increases from their Aug. 4th meeting, the Dakota County website does not have the video posted! Not only is the government trying to increase taxes but they aren’t even transparent about it!

Like seen in previous A4L reporting on Itasca County’s property tax hike, county commissioners will excuse their big spending by blaming Democrat-imposed unfunded mandates. While there is merit to that argument, they must also realize that they are the cause of wasteful government in their own right. Over-paid government employees, contracts given to special interests, social services fraud, misuse of funds, and other examples of county government fraud must always be fought to prevent waste, fraud, and abuse of tax dollars.

Minnesotans are fed up with high taxes. While crony politicians raise your taxes or sit on their hands and do nothing, Action 4 Liberty is fighting back!

Sign the A4L petition to ABOLISH property taxes! If you have to pay taxes on the property you own, you do not really own it! Sign the petition by clicking the image below:

Dakota County residents can fight against the property tax hike by attending upcoming meetings like the Commissioner work session and follow-up meeting. This will begin at 10AM on Tuesday, Aug. 18th at the Dakota County Administration Center in Hastings, conference room 3A. Government meetings should take place at times outside of normal work hours of their constituents so more people can voice their opinions, not 10AM on a Tuesday.

Action 4 Liberty will never waiver in our mission to protect liberty for the next generation. A4L will continue to provide Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.

While the media has called the Minnesota Governor GOP primary, Mike Lindell has refused to concede to RINO Lisa Demuth. 

Mail-in and early voting ballots are counted first in Minnesota so Lindell supporters remained optimistic at the campaign watch party on election night when seeing initial results favoring Demuth. As the night continued, some supporters began questioning the legitimacy of the numbers coming in.

When Lindell took the stage at the watch party, he decried the actions of candidate Kendall Qualls, who immediately threw in the towel and endorsed Lisa Demuth. Lindell stated that he and his team need to reconcile the results and potential irregularities, adding that he is very skilled at finding election fraud.

Some supporters of the Lindell campaign allege several irregularities and abnormalities including the SOS election results webpage listing precincts as reported while they votes were not yet appearing.

Lindell supporters tell A4L that a campaign email was sent to the campaign's county ambassadors that they will be looking into matters on the election ahead of the August 18th Minnesota State Canvassing Board meeting to certify the election results.

Since the 2020 Stop The Steal movement, grassroots conservatives have been extremely skeptical of voting machines and instead prefer ballots to be hand-counted. With the Lindell team having questions, it becomes even more clear that Minnesota must make the election process cleaner and more transparent.

Action 4 Liberty will keep Patriots updated as we learn more.
