We’ve received reports that the MNGOP is nearly broke - AGAIN. There appears to be a discrepancy regarding how much money remains in the MNGOP financial reserves.

The former MNGOP Chair David Hann stated in his final farewell email dated Dec 30, 2024 (subject line “Sincerely, Thank You”) and read “Our biggest accomplishment, though, will be that for the first time in well over a decade, the Republican Party of Minnesota will begin the new year in a cash-positive position. As I leave office on December 31st, the Party will enter 2025 without debt.”

While it appears that Hann’s email statement is technically correct, there is a “cash-positive” balance in the MNGOP account, the amount of money remaining is reported to be pitiful.

Apparently the Party’s bank balance has been depleted to the point that the new administration has been left with only a week or two of operating funds. A normal transition between administrations would be smooth and would leave an enduring institution in a position of strength rather than one of struggle - but apparently that’s too much for David Hann. It seems that on his way out the door he’s done everything he could to hamstring the new administration.

It was in meetings just a few months ago that David Hann was touting how the Party had hundreds of thousands of dollars in the bank. But in his final days as Chair, he has spent the Party’s funds down to practically nothing.

Conservatives and liberty lovers have wanted to see a well-positioned MNGOP that is ready to fight for liberty, ready to fight shoulder-to-shoulder with WE THE PEOPLE. Instead, the incoming party officers are being left high and dry by David Hann.

As reported by Action 4 Liberty’s new Communications Development Coordinator, Wendy Phillips, in a previous article, RINO Chair David Hann took it upon himself to direct Secretary of State Steve Simon and the Campaign Finance Board (CFB) to decertify Otter Tail County’s Republican BPOU. In a final vindictive move, Hann dug the knife deeper into the backs of the conservative grassroots in OTC.

The attempt to decertify OTC was a blatant example of Hann’s bitter attempt to hurt the party on his way out the door. It should be noted that he made this move after the State Central convention, likely knowing he wouldn’t be able to explain away the issue to delegates while trying to earn their support. Regardless, David Hann was removed as Chair after conservative delegates consolidated around Alex Plechash in the final round of voting.

Action 4 Liberty supporters and OTC conservatives pushed Alex Plechash across the finish line, many of which initially supported the candidacy of Bret Bussman as the grassroots candidate. Conservatives statewide had become fed up with Hann weaponizing the party to the benefit of the establishment so they decided to kick Hann to the curb. Hann’s actions against the OTC grassroots conservatives was one of the major reasons he was FIRED by the State Central delegate body.

New MNGOP Chair Alex Plechash has fought Hann’s actions by stopping the decertification of the OTC BPOU, which is exactly why delegates elected him! This is a great start but the job is not done in Otter Tail.

The duly-elected delegates in OTC must be restored and the local grassroots must have total control over their local party! Anything short of that will continue the corruption that has attacked the grassroots and rewarded the Swamp.

Action 4 Liberty will continue to provide Patriots with hard-hitting Minnesota news that cannot be found anywhere else. The attacks from radical Democrats and RINOs have been incoming ALREADY in 2025 because we are gaining traction with the conservative base and know that Republicans must DELIVER for the base and FIGHT! We will show conservatives the path to fight and look forward to fighting alongside you, shoulder-to-shoulder.

The Minnesota State House has garnered attention nationwide due to the initial split being 67-67 following the election. The GOP then gained a 67-66 Majority when a judge ruled that the 40B election winner, Democrat Curtis Johnson, did not meet residency requirements to hold office. Read our previous reporting on Walz’ illegal writ of election (which is now being sued by the MNGOP) and our reporting on how the GOP can leverage and expand their Majority by fighting the tampered election results of 54A (where 21 ballots were thrown out and Tabke won by only 15 votes after a recount).

Action 4 Liberty often exposes instances of Republican leaders letting conservatives down and caving to Democrats, however, it appears the House GOP’s new Assistant Leader, Rep. Harry Niska (HD31A), is taking the fight to the Democrats and understands the KEY legislative rule battles that are about to be underway.

In the following post on X, you will see Rep. Harry Niska set the record straight on what constitutes a “quorum”. A quorum is simply how many people must be present in a given meeting in order for business to take place, in this case how many Representatives must be present. The Minnesota Reformer is reporting that House Democrats are considering not showing up for the first two weeks of the legislative session to avoid a quorum but Rep. Harry Niska correctly states why a quorum is actually 67 members with the current legislative make-up. See post below:

No dirty tricks are beneath the Democrats and they will attempt any tactic they can to delay, undermine, or prevent GOP power in the House. If Democrats do not show up and do their jobs, the GOP has 67 votes to pass legislation and would have every right to do so under a Speaker of their choosing.

The Democrat meltdown is underway after having total control of our state, Melissa Hortman (HD34B) cannot believe that she has lost the Speakership. They have weaponized legislative procedure and rules against Republicans and fear that retribution is on the way. If any weak-kneed RINOs are scared to play hard-ball from the jump, perhaps they need to be reminded about the last day of the previous session where Dems compiled all of their bucket list bills into a giant, 2,800 page, unconstitutional omnibus bill which sent both chambers into chaos while motions were not being recognized.

If Rep. Harry Niska is prepared to lead conservative battles onto the House floor and truly make something of this moment for Republicans, he will be presented with many opportunities. GOP House members say that Niska was elected as Assistant Leader, as opposed to GOP Leader and Speaker-Designee Lisa Demuth’s choice for that position, RINO Rep. Paul Torkelson (HD15B) who has a 54% lifetime rating on our scorecards. GOP House members also say that this position was previously appointed and that an election process took place in a caucus meeting for that role where Niska won out, however they say Torkelson was instead appointed to the Executive Board by Demuth (HD13A). Meanwhile, Democrats have selected former cop turn drunk driving “They/She” Brion Curran (HD36B) for their House Assistant Leader.

House Republicans have an opportunity to seize power and maintain it but it will take strategic floor fighters with strong knowledge of the House Rules and Robert’s Rules of Order to fight back against the Democrats and their destruction of Minnesota. Niska appears to be a strong floor fighter and has clear parliamentary knowledge so he must use it to shrink government and fight for liberty. When we see Republicans fight for liberty and good policy, we celebrate that. Now let's see if they can keep it up and submit a budget that cuts spending to pre-Covid levels!

Action 4 Liberty will continue to stand on the frontlines in the battles for freedom in our state and continue to be the microphone of the grassroots.

This is the first article I’m writing for Action for Liberty… and it’s personal!

You hope and pray that you’re wrong, that he will come around and do the right thing.  Then you have to accept the harsh reality of who it is that your dealing with… David Hann, now former Chair of the MN GOP.

True to character (or lack thereof), on his way out the door, Hann delivered the final blow to Otter Tail County (OTC) by sending letters to the Campaign Finance Board and the Secretary of State requesting the decertification of the OTC BPOU… Hann’s swan song of unconstitutional and vindictive actions.

David Hann's legacy as MNGOP Chair is now cemented as a petty tyrant.

OTC has a tremendous grassroots movement and has been dealing with challenges for some years now because of their love for and adherence to The Constitution.  “Leadership” told OTC that if they organized for the 2024 Caucus they could see meaningful change in their county.  So the grassroots people of OTC turned out in overwhelming numbers only to be double-crossed by Hann.

Whether we’re talking about Hann’s interference in Otter Tail Co, Clay Co, Kittson Co, or Mille Lacs Co, Hann’s track record of talking “unity” and delivering “punishment” speaks for itself.  Hann’s legacy is nothing more than a “foot on the neck” of the grassroots people in the MN Republican Party.  If one didn’t know any better it would appear that David Hann, during his tenure as MN GOP Chair, served as controlled opposition for the Democrats.  Afterall, how are Republicans expected to win elections when the head of the party routinely attacks and punishes the hardest working activists within the party.

CALL TO ACTION:  It’s time for the grassroots people of MN to rise up and contact our newly elected State Executive Committee members (651.222.0022) and demand an emergency meeting before their regular meeting on the 3rd Thursday of January to address this most recent injustice against OTC.  

Oh, what I’d give to be a fly on the wall of THAT meeting.

As information becomes available, A4L will keep you posted. 

Minnesota currently sits with a 67-66 GOP Majority in the state House following a court order that ruled HD40B election winner, Democrat Curtis Johnson, did not meet residence requirements and the seat is therefore vacated. Read our previous reporting on how House Republicans can leverage this opportunity to expand their Majority by rejecting the election certificate of radical leftist Brad Tabke because 21 ballots were thrown away in his race decided by 15 votes. 

In order for a candidate to be eligible to hold office as a member of the Minnesota House of Representatives, legal residency must be established in the district in which the candidate is running for at least 6 months prior to the election. 

Curtis Johnson ran as the Democrat candidate for Minnesota House District 40B against Republican candidate, Paul Wikstrom. One has to wonder how was Curtis Johnson’s name able to even be printed on the ballot for the November 5th general election when his residency was not established at the time of filing. 

Following Johnson’s win, Wikstrom contested the election citing Johnson’s ineligibility based on the residency requirement. On December 20th, District Court Judge Leonardo Castro ruled that Johnson did not meet residence requirements and ordered the seat to be filled according to law (special election). See court order below:

Johnson had until the first day of session, January 14, to appeal this ruling to the state Supreme Court, but in an unorthodox move, Johnson wrote a formal letter to Governor Walz on December 27, making “the difficult decision not to accept my seat in the Minnesota House of Representatives and to resign from the Office of State Representative effective immediately and irrevocably.” Johnson cannot resign from a position he does not hold! He has not even taken the oath of office or held the seat yet! See Johnson's letter to Walz below:

As if the awkwardly crafted resignation by Johnson wasn’t strange enough, Walz took a bold move of his own by falsely interpreting the MN Statute 204D.19, Subd. 4 on special elections. Walz announced a special election for the 40B seat to be held January 28, with a primary election if necessary on January 14.  He further required nomination petitions and affidavits of candidacy must be filed with the Ramsey County auditor or the Secretary of State by 5:00 p.m. December 31st. Considering that nominating petitions require 500 signatures for Independent or Minor Party candidates to be placed on the ballot, this gives almost no time for those candidates to get on the ballot, which may be a violation of law.

State statute clearly states in subdivision 4 of the 204D.19 that the governor shall call the special election to be held 22 days after the first day of session, which puts the special election in February - not January 28 as arbitrarily determined by Tyrant Walz. He is clearly manipulating this situation and NOT abiding by the law in order to prevent the GOP from taking a Majority and the Speakership in the House.

Anti-lockdown attorney and former Judge candidate, Nathan Hansen, posted on X a great reply to GOP House Leader Lisa Demuth's questions on special election laws. See below:

It appears Simon and Walz will illegitamately use Subd. 3 instead of Subd. 4 in the above statute despite the obvious rationale behind using Subd. 4.

Constituents in Minnesota’s House District 40B dodged a bullet with Wikstrom’s legal contest surrounding the residence eligibility of Curtis Johnson considering that Johnson is a climate change cultist and an outspoken supporter of the woke LGBTQ+ agenda, 40B residents now hold the opportunity to circle the wagons around a conservative candidate and help tip the Minnesota House into a larger Republican majority.

Below you will see the list of candidates for the HD40B and SD60 special elections:

Action 4 Liberty is the leading source for freedom-loving Patriots because we report the truth with no punches pulled. Our hardcore style has led to several victories in the liberty battles we've taken on this year. 2024 has seen many wins and losses for liberty, especially in Minnesota, and Action 4 Liberty has been ready to expose it all! See our top 15 stories of the year below highlighting the important work we have led on!

1. Liberty Wing of MNGOP Successfully Cans David Hann

"Action 4 Liberty made tens of thousands of calls in the fall of 2021, mobilized thousands of grassroots Patriots to go to caucus, and got tons of people to run for state central delegate seats in 2023 which has now culminated to #CanTheHann!"

2. Itasca Patriots Fight Ellison Attorney Nomination; He Withdraws From Race!

"With only two days' notice of our story breaking, over 30 Patriots attended the event, with many speaking at the microphone directly to the Commissioners. Notably missing from this public job interview was “candidate” James Austad. There was also not a single individual from the public who spoke positively about Austad. Itascans made it clear that they want nothing to do with carpetbagging liberal lawyers in their County Government."

3. Fauci CANCELS MN Visit Following A4L Pressure & Rally Plans

"Just a few mere hours before Lying Tony Fauci was scheduled to appear at the Northrop Auditorium at the University of Minnesota, he suddenly CANCELED the visit! Our scheduled rally at the University was going to bring out hundreds of Patriots who support ‘Freedom Over Fauci’!"

4. How Republicans can Leverage & Expand their House Majority

"Now that House Republicans hold a Majority vote, they have every Right to elect a Republican House Speaker. Under the leadership of this Speaker, District 54A’s seat could be vacated by the Majority party refusing to recognize the election certification of Brad Tabke. Considering that Tabke won the race by only 14 votes and Scott County has admitted 20 ballots were thrown away (along with an additional missing ballot that they did not investigate), the error could mean that Tabke did not win the election at all. If Republicans are willing to play hard-ball starting on day 1, the rejection and expulsion of Tabke would bring the GOP to a 67-65 Majority."

5. Walz’ Embarrassing Debate Performance Filled with Lies; Fact-Check on Tampon Tim’s Claims

"Right from the jump, Walz had a look of unpreparedness and sheer panic across his face. Not exactly what people imagine in a supposed leader. It was clear that Walz was a nervous wreck as he was writing FURIOUSLY throughout the debate! In contrast, Vance did not appear to take ANY notes and was perfectly comfortable addressing questions right off the dome!"

6. Radical Walz Edu. Appointee Supports Overthrowing U.S. over Racism

"Concern has been raised surrounding a Tim Walz Dept. of Education appointment of an individual who is a radical, critical race theorist who is openly anti-American and believes our government should be overthrown. The appointed individual is Brian Lozenski and was chosen by Walz to help write the statement education framework for “ethnic studies” in public schools."

7. MNGOP Party Unit HRCC’s CFB Receipts Show $35K Spent for Un-Endorsed, RINO Incumbents

"Three races in particular drew attention due to long time incumbents being challenged by grassroots Patriots where all three incumbents did not win their endorsing convention. These races were RINO Ron Kresha v. Diane Webb-Skillings (10A), RINO Greg Davids v. Gary Steuart (26B), and RINO Brian Johnson v. Jimmy Gordon (28A). Upon review of the HRCC’s Campaign Finance Board September 2024 report, nearly $35K were spent protecting these three RINOs."

8. Trump Exposes MN Radical Abortion Laws in Debate; Kamala Refuses to Answer

"Trump dropped some MAJOR truth bombs during the debate and made Kamala squirm as he forced her to defend extremely unpopular late term and post-birth abortions, to which she refused to answer. Trump stated “Her Vice Presidential pick says abortion in the ninth month is absolutely fine.” and also stated that Walz supports post-birth abortions. Biased moderator Linsey Davis later interjected as a “fact-check” claiming no state has laws where it is legal to kill a baby after it’s born. That is NOT true! Trump was 100% right! Minnesota has legalized abortions post-birth and the Democrats deny it by claiming that those abortions “never happen”. If they never happen then why not make them illegal?"

9. Breakdown: MAGA Jesse’s Lawsuit Against Crooked SOS Steve Simon

"Now, another major issue faces Minnesota that I, as an individual citizen, decided to fight. Even with the possibility of government retaliation or false attacks of racism by Ayyadurai, I was willing to face repercussions for truth. It is such an important lawsuit and was even covered by national media like The Federalist. Minnesota will have a candidate for President on the ballot who is NOT a ‘natural born citizen’ thanks to the incompetence or desire of the SOS office. The US Constitution Article II, Section 1, Clause 5 reads: “No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.”'

10. MN Dems Plan to Install Tim Walz as VP Candidate at DNC Convention 

(Article written 2 days before Biden dropped out, A4L Predicted Kamala/Walz ticket)

"The reality of a “Coconuts” Kamala Harris/Tyrant Tim Walz ticket is unfortunately becoming a very real possibility. The idea of Biden dropping out was once considered a conspiracy theory, and while some have predicted that Biden will be taken off the ticket, either voluntarily or by force, A4L President Erik Mortensen predicted a Kamala/Walz ticket on 7/11/24 and The Truth Hurts show also predicted this on a recent show."

11. MN GOP State Exec Upholds Decision to Boot Otter Tail County Delegates

"According to Truth Hurts News, State Exec members Joe Ditto, Wendy Phillips, Mark Bishofsky, Jenna Dicks, and Alec Beck voted to overturn Hann’s decision and seat the delegates."

12. Bogus Campaign Finance Complaint Against A4L Dropped

"The Minnesota Campaign Finance Board dropped a two-year-old complaint against Action 4 Liberty on Monday. The Board is made up of Governor Tim Walz employees, which explains why the process was so long and drawn out."

13. RINO Ron Kresha Fails Again to Get Republican Endorsement

"Republicans in House District 10A held their endorsing convention on Saturday. Six-term incumbent representative Ron Kresha was challenged by political newcomer Diane Webb-Skillings. After several rounds of voting, delegates voted to not endorse either candidate, meaning that the nominee will be decided in a primary election."

14. Corrupt CD6 Convention Rigged for Emmer; Kicked Opponent Out

"Tom Emmer, who President Trump labeled a ‘Globalist RINO’ during his Speaker bid, was challenged only by one candidate, a grassroots conservative named Chris Corey. Chris submitted his nomination email to Chair Bobby Benson before the deadline and completed a conference call with the Nominations Committee (NomCom). Chris met every deadline and requirement set by the CD6 Constitution and Convention Rules. He figured that things would not be run fairly when they refused to give him the email list of delegates."

15. A4L State Fair Booth In National Spotlight

"Action 4 Liberty can be found in the headlines of major news networks across our country because of our “Never Walz” state fair booth! Our booth has been one of the most popular booths in the entire fairgrounds, almost always having a line run down the street! It is clear that many Minnesotans are NOT happy about Walz’ promotion to be Phony Kamala’s running mate."

Conservative voters are often disillusioned by politics once they discover that Republicans often do nothing to fight for their interests once they get elected. Grassroots Patriots are sick and tired of promises from crony politicians that never pan out.

A greater example couldn’t exist more than Paul Gazelka. Despite residing in a safe red district, Gazelka continually caved to the Democrats, grew government, refused to hold Walz and other Democrats accountable on Covid era tyranny, and let conservatives down. As Senate Majority Leader, Gazelka proposed a budget that increased state spending by a whopping $4.2B or a 9% increase, increased AG Antifa Keith Ellison’s budget by $8M or a 17% increase, and pushed a FAKE bill on ending Walz’ Emergency Powers that would’ve ensured a lose/lose scenario.

As we have previously reported, Gazelka attempted to stay relevant with Kamala’s selection of Walz as VP by writing a book to grift himself as some kind of fighter against Walz! Gazelka has now admitted another truth about politics; Republicans just say things to get elected and don’t actually intend on governing as the grassroots wants! See his post on X below:

Gazelka is suggesting that even when Republicans are in a majority, they will not perform well with a liberty score because you need to govern with Democrats. Gazelka is using the budget fight in DC as an example for his thinking, which perfectly highlights his swampy instincts.

The United States is in massive debt and we continue toward the point of no return thanks to corrupt politicians robbing our country’s future away. A true conservative would never vote to raise the debt ceiling or pass legislation via massive multi-subject continuing resolution, omnibus bills but only 34 Represenatives opposed the bill. While the original budget bill was much worse, pressure from Elon Musk led to a shortened, less spendy bill. This is proof that pressure works but the deal did not satisfy the needs of the American people. If a government shutdown is the only way to prevent our country from going further in debt, conservatives should flex that muscle. While Don Jr. and the Trump camp argue that this budget deal is the best that could be struck, principled conservatives should always put the People first, not their own political interests.

Interestingly, all of MN’s Congressional delegation from Emmer to Ilhan to Stauber to Angie Craig, voted in favor of the debt-ridden deal because they all seemingly get some benefit out of the swamp staying open. 

Paul Gazelka admits the quiet part out loud, politicians do not care what you think and will do whatever they think will keep them in office. The grassroots must remind politicians that if they do not fight for their interests, they will fight to replace them. Action 4 Liberty will continue to report on the frontlines of the liberty battle in Minnesota.

Following the November elections, Minnesota was poised to have a historic split legislature as the House would each have 67 members for the GOP and Democrats. Following years of Democratic destruction in our state, Minnesotans clearly voted for change. A highly motivated conservative electorate was mobilized by the Trump/Vance ticket which can be credited for Republicans outperforming Dems in several swing districts.

A power-sharing agreement was reached between Republican leader Lisa Demuth and longtime Dem leader Melissa Hortman (both are their party’s Speaker-designees) where each party would have an equal number of members on each Committee. Determinations and results of negotiations related to the House Speakership do not appear to be publicly available.

News broke yesterday that the Democrats lost a House seat after District Court Judge Leonardo Castro ruled that newly elected Democrat Curtis Johnson did not meet residence requirements for District 40B so the seat is to be vacant until the seat is filled according to the law (via a special election). See the Judge’s Order below:

Curtis Johnson attempted to carpetbag into a District, didn't actually live there, and got caught by his Republican opponent, Paul Wikstrom. This means that Republicans now hold a 67-66 MAJORITY in the State House!

District 40B is a Democrat strong-hold so this Majority could be short-lived and temporary. However, Republicans have the opportunity to leverage and expand their Majority with Johnson’s absence.

Now that House Republicans hold a Majority vote, they have every Right to elect a Republican House Speaker. Under the leadership of this Speaker, District 54A’s seat could be vacated by the Majority party refusing to recognize the election certification of Brad Tabke. Considering that Tabke won the race by only 14 votes and Scott County has admitted 20 ballots were thrown away (along with an additional missing ballot that they did not investigate), the error could mean that Tabke did not win the election at all. 

If Republicans are willing to play hard-ball starting on day 1, the rejection and expulsion of Tabke would bring the GOP to a 67-65 Majority. A special election in 54A would be especially noteworthy because it is a swing district, which could mean that the House would ultimately end up a 68-66 GOP Majority (including a likely Democrat win in the 40B special election).

Conservative House members must not allow the certification of Brad Tabke to ensure that Minnesota elections are free and fair. This is a winning issue that RINOs cannot get in the way of.

Minnesota House Republicans have the opportunity to claim power and reverse the left wing insanity that has been imposed on our state. When the Democrats have had power, they ramrod every radical policy imaginable through the Legislature and force their members to vote in lockstep. If Republicans act as cowards in this moment and do not FIGHT, the House will return to a “shared” and “equal” power structure. 

Right now is the only opportunity for Republicans to take and keep the Majority. If the Democrats are given an inch, they will always take a mile (or more). Voters can not trust Minnesota elections if Brad Tabke is allowed to serve in the House while evidence exists of (perhaps unintentional) election manipulation. The House GOP must decide if they want to save Minnesota or if they want to share power with radical Democrats.

For further reading, check out this article on the MN House website that describes the political battles that took place in 1979, the only other time in MN history that the House was perfectly split 67-67.

In a highly anticipated event, the MNGOP State Central Committee met Saturday, December 14th for a long day which dragged on for around ten and a half hours thanks to RINO speakers and other establishment nonsense. However, there was important business that took place for the elections for Chair, Deputy Chair, and Secretary.

Action 4 Liberty has been on the frontlines of reporting the corruption of the MNGOP and the party officer elections has been no exception. Our exposure of RINO party officer candidates to the crony and establishment Nominations Committee (NomCom) chaired by puppet Aaron Farris to Farris leaking Bret Bussman’s NomCom interview, A4L has been the leader in providing honest, liberty-based reporting in Minnesota.

Read our previous reporting on Hann being ousted as Chair here. Conservative delegates ultimately consolidated around former RNC Committeeman and current Wayzata City Councilman Alex Plechash during the third round of voting.

Action 4 Liberty also identified tens of thousands of Patriots in Minnesota for years, trained them on caucusing/conventions, spent hundreds of thousands mobilizing with mass mailing campaigns, made tens of thousands of phone calls, and kept them active in the political process as delegates. Our work has contributed massively to the defeat of RINO David Hann.

The State Central Committee meeting was chaired by Rep. Danny Nadeau (34A) and the parliamentarian was Rep. Harry Niska (31A). One of the kickoff speakers to the event was Globalist RINO Tom Emmer who said “losing is not an option”... If Emmer truly thought that, why would he force CD2 Republicans to run a carpetbagging RINO like Joe Teirab who went on to lose to Angie Craig by over 13 points? 

Bias appeared to be amidst when Nadeau falsely claimed that it takes a 2/3rds vote to overrule his rulings. As this clearly not being adherent to Roberts Rules of Order, it was challenged by the body and corrected by Parliamentarian Niska. Many delegates thought Nadeau and Niska were generally fair and adherent to the rules during the entire convention.

A resolution was passed that demanded transparency from Hann surrounding the Wyoming-based mystery company called 1972-10 that the MNGOP has given tens of thousands of dollars to. Due to Wyoming laws, the ownership and other knowledge of this company has been kept secret. Some rumors have connected this company to a former MNGOP Deputy Chair turned "White Dude for Kamala". See resolution below:

Hann then gave a ten minute campaign speech to the body in response where he said absolutely nothing and did not disclose anything about 1972-10.

The State Central body sent a message by completely throwing out the Nominations Committee’s corrupt report, thus, allowing Bret Bussman to compete in the Chair race despite the NomCom labeling him “Disqualified”. As we’ve reported, the NomCom was weaponized by the establishment with puppet Aaron Farris as the chair. Farris then accused Action 4 Liberty of leaking information, then he leaked the information himself like the hypocrite he is! We know that our reporting on that story led to delegates fighting this and winning.

Totals for the Chair race can be found in our previous article.

Walter Hudson, who has held himself out to be a grassroots liberty champion, instead endorsed establishment RINO David Hann, who had sought to squash the grassroots. Walter gave embarrassing nominating speeches for RINO David Hann and then appeared on stage again after his boss was fired by the body so he could nominate Kip Christianson. While Walter engaged in petty disputes with grassroots Patriots on X and played cover for RINO candidates, the grassroots was busy replacing them! In one speech by Hudson, he claimed that there was someone in the convention room who leads an organization that wants a weak MNGOP, hinting that A4L President Erik Mortensen did not want to see a Republican party FIGHT to restore our God-given freedoms! Perhaps Erik Mortensen doesn't want RINOs who backstab the grassroots in charge of the party! Walter's vagueness and absurd claim furthers his journey toward obscurity.

The results for the first round of voting for Deputy Chair was as follows:

144 - Kip Christianson

107 - Donna Bergstrom

84 - Fred Hage

3 - Blank

Fred Hage did not endorse any candidate in his concession speech and that resulted in a razor thin margin of victory for Donna Bergstrom in the second round of voting. Donna defeated RINO David Hann’s hand-selected candidate, weirdo Kip Christianson by just 5 votes. The results were as follows:

167 - Donna Bergstrom

162 - Kip Christianson

While both candidates were fundamentally flawed and not aligned with the mission of liberty, the defeat of Kip was a final blow to the establishment’s desired outcome. David Hann, Kip Chrisitanson, and Walter Hudson all emerge from this State Central as major losers who should treat today’s results as a learning opportunity.

The MNGOP Secretary race was also a massive fight which determined whether the body preferred elections or selections. After Ed Gross failed to get 30 signatures and Alec Beck dropped out, Joy Orvis was unopposed until Erik van Mechelen announced a run and collected the signatures of over 30 delegates. As a former Secretary of State candidate and hardcore election integrity activist, van Mechelen presented a strong case with his documentation and in conversation with delegates but was not allowed to speak after a standing vote. While some delegates likely voted against his allowance out of being pooped, they should perhaps take their delegate roles more seriously and allow a proper election be held. Erik van Mechelen provided a perfect example of the MNGOP keeping grassroots Patriots out of the movement. Joy Orvis faced zero competition and should be watched like a hawk during critical votes on the State Executive Committee.

The MNGOP appears to be heading in a more conservative direction thanks to delegates who accepted the task of sitting through a mind-numbingly boring State Central meeting and canned David Hann! The RINOs can feel that the grassroots are onto their games and they can’t hide anymore! There were plenty of wins and losses for all sides at today’s event, which shows that the battle for liberty is still underway. Action 4 Liberty will continue leading on this forefront and give Patriots fact-based, liberty-centered reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.

In a highly anticipated event, the MNGOP State Central Committee met today (Saturday, December 14th) and held elections for Chair, Deputy Chair, and Secretary. After years of destroying the MNGOP, Action 4 Liberty can finally report that David Hann has been removed from power!

RINO David Hann has led the MNGOP in a divisive, anti-grassroots direction and the State Central delegates have punished him by stripping him of his power! From screwing over Otter Tail delegates to the mystery Wyoming company 1972-10 getting tens of thousands of dollars to Hann’s opposition to endorsed candidates to the countless failed promises and beyond, Hann has proven himself to be an awful leader for the MNGOP.

David Hann was defeated by former RNC Committeeman Alex Plechash during the third round of voting. See results below:

The results for the first round of Chair was as follows:

140 - David Hann

86 - Alex Plechash

84 - Bret Bussman

37 - Mike Murphy

1 - Spoiled

The results of the second round for Chair were as follows:

153 - David Hann

114 - Alex Plechash

80 - Bret Bussman

1 - Blank

Following the second round of voting, Bussman was eliminated and he endorsed Alex Plechash in his concession speech. The results of the third and final round of voting were not read to the body.

Alex Plechash will have an uphill battle to unify a Republican party that has betrayed its voters and principles. We have previously reported on some of the downfalls and shortcomings of Plechash, including his role in backstabbing Otter Tail delegates. He will have to correct course with the grassroots and fight for the anti-establishment, MAGA agenda that conservatives desperately want. Action 4 Liberty is not under the illusion that the war for liberty is won BUT the battle against David Hann has been won!
