Gaining nothing, losing credibility. This is the unfortunate case of State Senator Nathan Wesenberg (SD10) who fell prey to the RINO Establishment in the Governor's endorsement race.

This is not a fun story. This is a situation where it is what it is.

Wesenberg has reliably supported liberty in the legislature but that does not give him a pass.

Nathan Wesenberg joined the stage with RINO Dave Osmek to try to save liberal Lisa Demuth from losing to Kendall Qualls. Despite the American flag attire, Wesenberg found out that Lisa Demuth LOST votes following his speech.

Wesenberg did not gain or maintain votes for Lisa, he muddied the water and made delegates no longer trust him.

In round 8, Qualls led with 59.11% to Demuth’s 38.53%. Wesenberg then took the stage and foolishly threw his support behind Demuth. In round 9, Qualls led with 59.52% to Demuth’s 37.84%. Demuth LOST 30 votes after Wesenberg spoke! See results below:

This is a disappointing move by Wesenberg that surprised delegates. He seems to reconcile this by claiming that Ryan Wilson, Lisa Demuth’s running mate, supposedly helped him secure his uncontested state senate endorsing convention.

Doing favors for RINOs, under the spotlight at the MNGOP State Convention, is always a mistake. In this case, it is worse than a mistake, it is wrong.

Wesenberg’s senate district, SD10, initially struggled to schedule an endorsing convention. Since the district covers parts of 7 different counties, each county had to agree on a date. This had an issue due to RINO leadership in Aitken County refusing to be cordial and honest. This forced Action 4 Liberty to publicize this issue and pressure the MNGOP State Executive Committee to resolve the issue.

It was Action 4 Liberty pressure that caused this endorsing convention to be scheduled. The party leadership knows that Action 4 Liberty was willing to cause major problems for them if they refused to do the right thing. If we had not published our story exposing this issue, Wesenberg could’ve ended up with no endorsing convention at all.

Relevant BPOU Chairs and State Executive Committees members confirmed to A4L that Wilson had little to nothing to do with the scheduling of Wesenberg’s convention. The MNGOP State Executive was forced to schedule this due to A4L pressure, not internal whispers.  This is a fact that many in the Establishment will never admit, they do not want to confess that A4L pressure makes their knees buckle.

In the legislature, Wesenberg has opposed most of the corrupt omnibus bills negotiated by Lisa 'Kamala' Demuth and Tim Walz. Wesenberg is a Senate author for A4L's Never Again Bill, a bill that Lisa Demuth previously KILLED on the House floor. Despite the extreme contrasts in their record, Wesenberg tarnished his image and failed at his attempt to prop up a RINO.

After Wesenberg spoke, Qualls had the opportunity to address the convention and he made sure to call out the “desperation” of legislators doing all they could to prop up Demuth and block him from being endorsed. 

Action 4 Liberty will always be principled and will call out any politician who fails to fight for liberty. Conservatives across our state know that the state government needs to be drastically cut and Demuth has done nothing but maintain the status quo.

A4L looks forward to Senator Nathan Wesenberg publicly correcting his mistake and rejoining the fight for liberty.

The grassroots delegates at the MNGOP convention made one thing perfectly clear: It is MANDATORY that they sign Action 4 Liberty’s Never Again Pledge in order to win!

In Statewide executive positions, Action 4 Liberty requested candidates sign the Never Again Pledge. This pledge is a commitment to support the Never Again Bill, which eliminates unilateral lockdown powers by the Governor. As seen during covid, Tim Walz having all the power led to tyranny and attacks on our God-given liberties.

Some RINOs have refused to sign our pledge and are understanding the political consequences of their decision.

In the Governor, Secretary of State, and State Auditor races, all three endorsed candidates stood with the grassroots by signing the Never Again Pledge. Kendall Qualls, Tad Jude, and Nate George signed the Never Again Pledge and it clearly gained them trust with the grassroots.

In the Auditor race, Braham Mayor Nate George DESTROYED out-of-touch Scott Jensen in the very first round of voting. Jensen’s resounding defeat made it clear delegates saw through his desperate chase for power. Jensen started as a Governor candidate this cycle but was widely rejected so he then turned to a lower office. Jensen’s plan did not work out and Nate George wisely chose to stand with the grassroots and immediately signed the Never Again Pledge when offered. In 2022 and 2026, Jensen has gone out of his way to NOT stand with Action 4 Liberty.

Nate George was always the only candidate in the race with professional auditing experience, making him an ideal choice for delegates. He previously had another opponent in this race, 27 year old drunk driver Elliott Engen, but since Engen’s DWI he has joined little-known thumb-twiddler Peggy Bennett’s sad Governor campaign.

Action 4 Liberty is OVER THE TARGET because the Democrats are threatened by the existence of a grassroots conservative organization. They have already launched an attack against Nate George for sharing an A4L article. To radical leftists, ending fraud is far-right. To everyone else, ending fraud is common sense.

The Governor endorsement contest showcased several candidates who signed the Never Again Pledge including My Pillow CEO Mike Lindell, Assemblies of God Pastor John Krhin, Catholic school Administrator Phil Parrish, and the ultimate winner, businessman Kendall Qualls. In 10 rounds of voting, the Qualls campaign picked up support from delegates who previously supported other candidates. In speeches, Qualls appealed to supporters of other candidates to rally against the Establishment and their hand-picked choice, RINO Lisa Demuth.

As supporters of A4L know, Lisa Demuth KILLED the Never Again Bill on the House floor and refused to sign the Never Again Pledge throughout this campaign. As Speaker, Demuth funded fraud, allowed a crooked election by seating radical leftist Brad Tabke, passed bloated omnibus bills, increased Keith Ellison’s budget, and much more. One issue that Kendall Qualls highlighted in a speech was previously reported on by A4L and it was the issue of Lisa Demuth and other RINOs honoring the Somali community as if the Feeding our Future and childcare fraud scandals never existed.

In the Secretary of State race, Tad Jude easily won the endorsement on the 2nd round of voting. Jude signed the Never Again Pledge, as did one of his opponents, Wendy Phillips. By standing with the grassroots on our pivotal issue, Jude was able to win over delegates and capture the endorsement.

Action 4 Liberty is appreciative to the candidates who have signed our pledge. By standing with the grassroots, we know the pulse of Minnesota. Change is needed and the grassroots is ONLY going to support candidates who can bring change.

In addition - While the Never Again Pledge was not offered to federal candidates since this is an issue for statewide candidates, A4L would like to note that US Senate candidate Adam Schwarze has gone out of his way to appeal to A4L supporters. Many A4L supporters favored Royce White's brash and unrelenting America First message, Schwarze was able to consolidate support and bring Royce supporters during 6 rounds of voting in to defeat pro-abortion and anti-MAGA Michele Tafoya. The GOP will hold a primary and the field is still to be determined.

RINO Lisa Demuth was defeated on the 10th ballot at the GOP state convention for Governor.

Demuth was defeated by businessman Kendall Qualls, who has signed Action 4 Liberty's Never Again Pledge. On the other hand, Lisa Demuth KILLED the Never Again Bill on the House floor and has no credibility to fight unilateral lockdowns.

Despite the propaganda and attacks by the Demuth campaign, Qualls was able to capture the endorsement by winning the support of delegates vote by vote.

This defeat for Demuth is a resounding rejection by the grassroots. The RINO legislators running around the convention hall did her no good. The grassroots wants change and understands that Demuth is the opposite of change, no matter what Ryan Wilson or RINO legislators told them.

As a reminder, 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 omnibus bill signed into law by Tim Walz was supported by RINO Lisa Demuth.

The results made it clear, the grassroots is not going to be fooled by the Establishment any longer. Demuth was humiliated by the grassroots due to her record of funding fraud, seating radical leftist Brad Tabke, passing corrupt omnibus bills, and selling out conservatives every chance she had.

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

With the MNGOP state convention quickly approaching, Governor candidate Peggy Bennnet released a video trashing the MNGOP and calling out Alex Plechash due to her exclusion from the state convention.

Peggy Bennett is a RINO State Representative who has failed to gain momentum in the Governor race, oftentimes receiving no votes during Congressional district and county GOP straw polls. In the legislature, Bennett has voted with the Establishment Swamp for all kinds of liberal omnibus bills. As seen in the 2025 A4L scorecard, Bennett has a lifetime score of 48.65% which means that on the most critical votes, Bennett is more likely to vote for bigger government than she is to vote for the pro-liberty position. As seen in previous A4L reporting, Bennett made it clear that she planned to twiddle her thumbs instead of fighting for Minnesota at the beginning of the 2025 legislative session.

Also during Bennett’s 12-year run in the legislature was her refusal to stand with her constituent, Lisa Hanson, as Hanson defied tyrannical covid lockdowns and opened her business. Bennett refused to support Hanson or her business as Walz and Ellison weaponized the judicial system against her. When Bennett’s constituents needed her most, she was nowhere to be found.

While Bennett was absent during battles for her constituents, she has chosen to attack the party since they are working against her interests.

As seen in the video, Bennett argues that she paid the mandatory $5K speaking fee but was told by the party that she will not be allowed to address the convention. She does not state if the party found her unqualified, if she did not collect the mandated 50 delegate signatures to be nominated, or whatever other reason the party may have used to block her. See video HERE.

Party leadership is supposed to be in the business of establishing fair procedures for all candidates of their party, not picking winners and losers. Party leadership is only supposed to back a candidate once that person is endorsed by their party’s delegation or once a primary election determines their general election nominee. Unfortunately, the pay-to-play scheme ($5K-$10K speaking fee) established by MNGOP chair Alex Plechash has made it clear that the party shows preference when dollars are on the line.

Bennett has been loyal to the Swamp for 12 years and is seeing that they are not returning the favor. This is a political lesson for all: The Establishment will use you for all you are useful for and then spit you out when you are no longer of use.

A4L is attacked by RINOs for calling out fraud, corruption, and big government regardless of the party or person implicated. Interestingly, when RINOs like Peggy Bennett is the one dividing the party, the usual suspects of A4L haters like RINO Mary Franson are silent. RINOs have a double-standard: They feel entitled to criticize the grassroots but does not want any pushback from the grassroots.

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

A government that is not transparent with its citizens will always lead to corruption. In Minnesota, we see this kind of corruption too often. With the Republican and Democratic state conventions taking place this weekend (GOP in Duluth and Dems in Rochester), all campaign finance reports are HIDDEN and unavailable to be viewed.

The state convention is a critical time period in which delegates, alternates, and others begin to closely examine candidates. Most people live normal lives and are not digging into campaign finance reports every day but they are much more likely to when conventions or elections are upcoming. Despite this, the Campaign Finance Board (CFB) has pulled all reports off of their website and it is unknown when they will return.

The reports were all taken down due to a bill passed in the legislature (HF4239) that required the addresses of donors be removed from all campaign finance reports, including reports from years past. The bill further required that the CFB take down the addresses immediately following its enactment, which just so happens to be when the State Conventions are.

Was the law designed to INTENTIONALLY block campaign finance reports ahead of the state conventions?

The Establishment is benefitted by secrecy and their choice to remove all of the reports and redo them during an election year, in the swing of the election, is awfully convenient for the Swamp…

Voters want to know about the out-of-state billionaire Richard Uihlein bankrolling the “Restore Sanity” political action committee (PAC) that is supporting Lisa Demuth. The deceptive material, mailers, and ads distributed by this PAC paints Demuth out to be an America First conservative when that is the furthest thing from the truth! Demuth voted for EVERY SINGLE bill signed into law by Tim Walz in 2025 and 2026, that is not conservative!

Keep in mind, Lisa Demuth is the Speaker of the MN House and ensured it would be passed with a scheduled floor vote! She bears more responsibility than any other Republican who voted for this mess.

Minnesota should not be left in the dark at critical electoral moments! 

Luckily, Action 4 Liberty has already reported on the CFB filings which can be seen here or by clicking below:

A4L became aware of this issue while researching Kendall Qualls’ CFB reports in relation to accusations raised by former MN Senate President and former Qualls campaign surrogate, RINO Dave Osmek. This issue is discussed in more detail in our previous reporting.

While the Establishment would argue that this policy should be done, they have ZERO excuse for scheduling this during this critical time period. Whether a donor’s address should be listed is NOT the issue, the issue is that we cannot view ANY report at all right now!

The only disinfectant for corrupt politics is transparency. Sunlight exposes darkness and MN politicians have made that impossible. This was passed with a 46-21 vote in the Senate and a 118-15 vote in the House. All of the votes in opposition were cast by Republicans. See votes below:

Senate vote:

Action 4 Liberty will continue fighting corruption and demanding transparency. Minnesotans deserve to know the individuals and special interests bankrolling campaigns. We will continue providing Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else.

The MNGOP state convention is taking place this weekend in Duluth and this event will determine who receives the official party endorsement for the offices of U.S. Senate, Governor & Lt. Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State, and State Auditor. While the endorsement does not guarantee a candidate the GOP nomination, endorsed candidates typically win the primary. This year, Republicans expect a fiery event that pits Establishment RINOs against candidates supported by grassroots conservatives.

High Prices

Some grassroots conservatives have chosen not to attend this year’s convention due to the party price gouging delegates, alternates, vendors, and guests. Despite inflation, high taxes, and high costs stretching average Minnesotans thin, MNGOP chair Alex Plechash has chosen to charge attendees more than they have paid for any previous state convention. A4L has largely put this issue to the side to avoid depressing turnout but it is an unfortunate truth we must accept. Excluding hotel, food, and travel costs, Plechash is demanding $200-$240 from delegates and alternates just to have the ability to vote. 

Despite receiving pushback from multiple wings of the party, Plechash has continued his pursuit of turning the state convention into the party’s big cash-grab. To make matters worse, the party is also demanding at least $5,000 for a candidate to be given the chance to speak! In a pay-to-play move by the MNGOP, a candidate must purchase a $5K or $10K campaign suite in order to give their speech at the convention. Statewide Republican candidates already face an uphill battle in Minnesota without Plechash fleecing them!

Electronic voting clickers

Another issue that is sure to be discussed will be the party’s use of rented electronic clickers, costing the party somewhere around $40K to rent. Considering the grassroots’ issues with electronic voting and fiscal responsibility, many delegates may not be pleased to be using such equipment. While the party has given assurances that the results will secure and auditable, some Republicans (likely including Mike Lindell supporters) will remain skeptical.

Governor Race

The largest focal point of the convention will be the Governor and Lt. Governor races. Three candidates have emerged as frontrunners thus far including Mike Lindell, Kendall Qualls, and RINO Speaker Lisa Demuth. Qualls and Demuth have both announced Lt. Governor selections and Lindell is yet to announce his running mate. Demuth has the baggage of voting to fund fraud and voting for every single bill signed into law by Tim Walz in 2025 and 2026. While many see Ryan Wilson’s addition to Demuth’s ticket as one of her only good qualities, Kendall Qualls has ended up in a different position with his running mate.

Qualls’ #2, modular home businessman Brian Nicholson, has recently faced scrutiny after largely being unknown. On the AM 1280 radio station, former MN Senate President and former Qualls surrogate, RINO David Osmek, went on the attack against Qualls and Nicholson on a variety of subjects, including a civil court case in which Nicholson is a defendant. Osmek stated that the lawsuit alleges Nicholson used company funds for personal uses and asked for fraudulent loan documents to be submitted.

Osmek also argued that Qualls is wasting 2/3rds of his campaign funds on consultants. A4L began reading Qualls’ CFB reports to verify this and in the midst of this research, the CFB pulled all campaign finance reports to take off the addresses of donors. As of this article’s publishing, Minnesotans are still unable to see the CFB reports for candidates. From what was seen, it was clear that Qualls has spent hundreds of thousands on campaign consultants. Qualls and Nicholson made a video on X but kept their response to 

Several other GOP Governor candidates will compete for the endorsement including businessman Patrick Knight, Assemblies of God pastor John Krhin, and State Representative Peggy Bennett. While each has not yet received major traction for their candidacies, John Krhin has made it clear that he stands with grassroots conservatives by rocking an Action 4 Liberty t-shirt in campaign literature. See below:

Sources tell A4L that candidate Phil Parrish will also be listed on the ballot for Governor at the convention but refused to pay the $5K speaking fee. Candidate Raul Estrada and his running mate, Joe Kincaid (Joe Liberty), have selected to not attend the convention and are running straight to the primary due to concerns with the MNGOP and a preference to compete for the support of the broader GOP electorate. 

Candidates Mike Lindell, Kendall Qualls, John Krhin, Phil Parrish, and Raul Estrada have all signed A4L’s Never Again Pledge, proving they will fight to shrink government, limit their own power, and prevent tyrannical lockdowns from happening ever again.

U.S. Senate Race

The U.S. Senate GOP race is crowded with several candidates seeking the nomination. This includes 2024 GOP nominee Royce White, Navy Seal Adam Schwarze, leftist Michele Tafoya, former White House fellow Mark York, Navy veteran Tom Weiler, and Alycia Gruenhagen, Several other candidates have also filed campaign paperwork but the listed names are the individuals expected to seek the party endorsement. If interested in learning more about each of the candidates, read previous A4L reporting here. 

Secretary of State Race

Three Republicans are running for the MNGOP endorsement for the office of Secretary of State including former CD1 MNGOP Exec. Committeewoman Wendy Phillips, former Judge Tad Jude, and activist Dave Meissner. Both Phillips and Jude have signed A4L’s Never Again Pledge while Meissner has refused. All three candidates are listed on the MNGOP website as candidates who have pledged to abide by the party endorsement. Jude is coming off of three recent political losses: CD3, Hennepin Co. Attorney, and Attorney General. While Jude’s experience has garnered him support, it has also made some delegates feel his time is past. Wendy Phillips began fighting for election integrity issues during the 2020 Stop The Steal movement and recently received Mike Lindell’s endorsement. Phillips also stood up for Otter Tail delegates when they were disenfranchised by then-MNGOP Chair, corrupt David Hann, and was ousted from her party position by the Establishment for doing the right thing.

State Auditor Race

Three candidates are seemingly in the GOP nomination battle for the State Auditor position including Braham Mayor Nate George, 2022 Governor nominee Scott Jensen, and DWI Elliott Engen. Engen has not campaigned since his DWI but has also not dropped out. A4L is told that Engen did not pay the speaking fee or collect the 50 signatures needed to compete for the endorsement at the state convention. Jensen initially was running for Governor again but was facing abysmal levels of support so he has chosen a lesser office and is hoping he can win on name ID. On the other hand, Nate George has created a fraud risk score that he plans on implementing if elected and is the only Auditor candidate who has signed A4L’s Never Again Pledge.

Attorney General Race

Only one candidate, Ron Schutz, is seeking the MNGOP endorsement for Attorney General. Schutz is a wealthy attorney who has made donations to many Republicans and RINOs. Schutz has refused to sign A4L’s Never Again Pledge.

Democrat Convention

Minnesota Democrats will be holding their state convention on the same days as the MNGOP, except their convention will be held in Rochester. The fee for delegates and alternates is about half of what the MNGOP is charging. While Klobuchar does have several Democratic opponents, none have mounted a serious campaign thus far. While several of the races are not contested, the U.S. Senate and State Auditor races will show where splinters occur in the party. Fake moderate Angie Craig has lost massive support in the party and is expected to lose BIGLY to lunatic leftist Peggy Flanagan. Democrats continually move toward socialism, big government, and wasting tax dollars on fraud so it should be expected that their future State Auditor candidate will do more to cover up fraud than to expose it. UPDATE:  Since publishing, Angie Craig has withdrawn from the endorsement process, which she was expected to lose handedly. 

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

Minnesota RINOs are the worst negotiators on the planet. Despite Republicans controlling the State House, Democrats continue to get their way. MN residents made it clear that high taxes, including the costly vehicle tab fee, must be reduced. RINOs gave Minnesota the tab fee reduction BUT it comes at a cost: It was attached to a bloated bonding bill (HF719) that gives us $1.24B of debt, $46.5M in project spending, and spending $254M of surplus dollars to cover for a one year tab fee reduction.

$254M may sound like a lot but it is only covering for a 0.29% cut in tab fees! That is totally pathetic. With 5.5 million registered vehicles in MN, that will be a drop in the bucket. You could find better deals in a junk mail coupon book than the deals Demuth negotiates with Democrats.

The high vehicle tab fee had to be addressed but leave it to RINOs to attach all kinds of wasteful pork to it! Taxpayers do not want to see our state given over one billion dollars in debt! Taxpayers do not want to have their surplus dollars wasted. Taxpayers are sick of the bloated omnibus bills that hide all kinds of fraud, woke policy, and wasteful spending. Despite the grassroots opposition, RINO Mary Franson championed this insane debt bill.

While grassroots conservatives wouldn’t think twice in rejecting the bloated $1.24B debt bill, the vast majority of elected Republicans fell in line with the Establishment and voted with Democrats for the massive debt! There are 99 GOP state legislators in Minnesota and only 18 voted no! This includes 7 in the Senate and 11 in the House.

See Senate vote below:

See House vote below:

As seen above, all Democrats voted for the massive debt. The fiscally conservative position was a no vote. State Auditor candidate and drunk driver Elliott Engen left his constituents voiceless by not taking a vote at all.

This bill was NOT a simple reduction of the tab fee, they took away $254M from the general fund to do this and the tab fee reduction only lasts a year! They are robbing taxpayers but are conveniently leaving that part out. If they instead cut the cost permanently and forced the state government to absorb the cost, A4L would have no complaints!

To make matters worse, this bill could have been the GOP’s biggest tool for leverage. A bonding bill requires the support of 3/5ths of the legislature in both chambers which means that the GOP could withhold their votes unless they get something very substantial in return. This tab fee reduction is small potatoes and shows that the status quo continues with RINOs like Lisa Demuth in charge.

While some of the bonding measures are for good, neutral, or mundane projects, others are blatantly ridiculous. In one instance, there is $800K of debt to plant more trees around the Capitol building! They are also giving the woke U of M $75M of debt, the broken Met Council gets over $57.8M of debt, an immigrant-focused recreation center gets $1.5M of debt, and selected businesses are receiving government handouts.

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

On one of the final days of the legislative session, MN House RINOs partnered with Democrats on a woke resolution honoring the fraud-ridden Somali community. While grassroots conservatives are opposed to mass migration of third-world refugees and are sick of seeing their tax dollars funneled to fraudsters, RINOs proved yet again that they are in lockstep with the radical left, globalist, Great Replacement Theory agenda.

RINOs Ben Bakeberg (54B), Dave Baker (16B), Patti Mueller (23B), Andrew Myers (45A), and Paul Torkelson (15B) all stood up to read the resolution aloud and had nothing but praise for a racial group that has generally been unwilling to assimilate to American culture. It has become clear that the vast majority of Somalis have no interest in maintaining our Constitution, societal norms, and way of life. While a minority of Somalis have embraced American principles, the vast majority have not.

Imagine what would be said if a resolution was championed in the House if it exclusively complimented white people. It would be seen on its face as ridiculous.

Some of the woke talk included Mueller arguing that Somalis “enrich local and state culture”, Myers arguing that Somalis advocate for “equity and justice” and enhance “democracy and public service in this state”, and Bakeberg saying MN has to respect the “dignity of all MN residents” (which would include illegal aliens). RINO Speaker Lisa Demuth also led the body to give a standing ovation to a Somali national, Mohamed Abdirizak Mohamud, following the resolution being read aloud. See below:

Honored today to be recognized by the Minnesota House of Representatives in a bipartisan resolution reaffirming support for Somali Americans and their contributions to the cultural, civic, social, and economic life of this great state.

Minnesota has shown that diversity is not a… pic.twitter.com/a3BLzsg2Zv

— Mohamed Abdirizak (@MAbdirizak) May 16, 2026

Mohamed Abdirizak Mohamud is the former Minister of Foreign Affairs for Somalia and has publicly worked with Ilhan Omar to funnel more of our tax dollars to Somalia. Even if Mohamud is a good-faith actor fighting corruption and terrorism in Somalia's government, it is not the United States' responsibility to nation build with hard-earned tax dollars.

RINOs who are afraid to admit that the Somali community has done more harm than good to Minnesota will never end our state’s fraud epidemic. Sucking up to a racial group that supports Sharia Law will not cause them to moderate their views, it shows that weak politicians are celebrating the decline of our nation.

Unfortunately, the Uniparty continued their woke identity politics with another resolution on the following day to recognize May as American Indian Month. Instead of dealing with serious issues affecting Minnesotans like high taxes, billions in fraud, or unfair regulations, RINOs just want to virtue signal to a group that will never vote for them.

Of the 5 RINOs mentioned who read the resolution, only Torkelson is retiring from the legislature. Baker, Mueller, and Myers are running for reelection and Bakeberg is running for the state Senate. 

Action 4 Liberty will continue to stand for common sense and against woke identity politics. Democrats and RINOs who prioritize Somali migrants over average Minnesotans are America Last politicians that are destroying Minnesota. A4L will continue providing Patriots with liberty-based reporting that cannot be found anywhere else. 

The race to replace worthless U.S. Senator Tina Smith is underway with the MNGOP and Democrat endorsing conventions quickly approaching. While Democrats will choose between radical leftist Peggy Flanagan, fake moderate Angie Craig, and lesser known Democrat Billy Nord, the MNGOP has numerous candidates running. Among those candidates is the RINO Establishment’s hand-picked choice, anti-Trump Michele Tafoya.

Despite being a known anti-Trump RINO, Tafoya launched an attack ad against another GOP candidate, Adam Schwarze, hypocritically labeling him as an anti-Trump donor! See below:

This line of attack is particularly ironic for Tafoya because she has made her anti-Trump views known for years. Now that she is running for U.S. Senate and President Trump has retaken the White House, Tafoya is pretending to be MAGA all the way! As seen below, she was advocating for Neo-Con Nikki Haley to continue her pointless campaign against Trump:

Tafoya has even DELETED an article she wrote demanding that Trump drop out and allow a RINO like Nikki Haley to be the candidate instead. Unfortunately for Tafoya, the article has been captured on the internet archiving Wayback Machine and can be seen in full below:

As seen in previous A4L reporting, we have covered Schwarze’s previous donation to Nikki Haley. Schwarze appeared on The Truth Hurts show and explained that his girlfriend’s family was supportive of Nikki which caused him to make the donation and appear on Nikki Haley’s list of MN campaign team. As explained on the show, Schwarze says he did not watch the GOP primary debates, was not very familiar with Haley’s views, and did not know his name being listed would appear as an endorsement. While some MAGA voters remain skeptical of Schwarze due to this donation, he argues that voters should judge him for his own views and not the views of Nikki Haley.

As far as the Klobuchar donation is concerned, Schwarze says he donated $10 to her in order to join her mailing list. This was done during Klobuchar’s failed Presidential campaign. Keeping tabs on radical Democrats like Amy Klobuchar is worthwhile for MN citizens so many conservatives may understand why Schwarze made the small donation.

Tafoya has no room to judge considering she has donated to RINOs like Lindsey Graham, Liz Cheney, and Mitt Romney! Most would not find these donations since she uses her married name, Vandersall, instead of Tafoya when making donations. These donations can be seen here.

Schwarze is considered the leading candidate for the GOP endorsement for U.S. Senate as he has been winning straw polls across the state. As a Marine and Navy Seal veteran who can give a strong stump speech, many Republican delegates have seen Schwarze as a viable general election candidate. Schwarze has contrasted his pro-life positions with Michele Tafoya’s pro-abortion positions and that differentiation may be what put Schwarze over the finish line at the convention.

A website highlighting Tafoya’s leftist views including her anti-Trump, pro-abortion, and anti-2nd Amendment positions. Click image below to visit realtafoya.com:

Tafoya is refusing to abide by the party endorsement and will continue to the primary regardless of the convention’s results. On the other hand, Schwarze has pledged to abide by the party endorsement.

Schwarze and Tafoya are joined in the race for the GOP nomination 2024 GOP U.S. Senate nominee Royce White, former White House fellow Mark York, Navy veteran Tom Weiler, Army veteran Chris Brooks, truck driver Ray Petersen, food co-op manager Alycia Gruenhagen, and businessman Mike Ruoho.

Tafoya has the endorsement of RINO Tim Scott and the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC). Schwarze has the endorsement of Montana U.S. Senator Tim Sheehy, Virginia Congressman John McGuire, and Law Enforcement Today. Royce White is endorsed by former Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz, incoming US Ambassador to Jamaica Kari Lake, My Pillow CEO and Governor candidate Mike Lindell, Moms for America Minnesota, and others. As seen in previous A4L reporting, MNGOP Chair Alex Plechash has unfairly propped up Tafoya on social media.

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

Big government spending is out of control in Minnesota and it is well known that billions upon billions in tax dollars are being funneled to Somali fraudsters. Action 4 Liberty has kept the public informed as politicians waste away our tax dollars but has a correction to make on our previous reporting. 

In our recent story, we highlighted the massive Human Services spending for fraud-ridden programs that Democrats and RINOs passed in the House. We highlighted a cost of around $700M but have since realized that it is EVEN WORSE! This bill actually spends over $1.4 Billion on certain fraud-ridden Human services program!

The bill, (HF4546), increases spending by over $739.6M for this year and over $775M next year! We thought it was bad before but now we know things are TWICE AS BAD as we previously reported!

While there are other cuts in the bill that totals about $81.6M, that is a drop in the bucket of the $1.4 Billion in increased spending!

Under the “leadership” of Lisa Demuth as Speaker of the MN House, the status quo of fraud has been maintained. She has voted for EVERY SINGLE bill signed into law by Tim Walz last year (budget year) and this year. Instead of holding the Walz/Ellison fraud regime accountable, Demuth led the RINOs to bail out these wasteful programs that will overspending their allotted budget.

After the House vote to give DHS more money for fraud-ridden programs, Lisa Demuth proved her hypocrisy by complaining about the fraud that DHS is funding. When will all of Minnesota realize that she is a total fraud?!? See below:
