Riots, fraud and economic stagnation—Minnesota has had it rough. Brighter skies could be ahead.

The voices of Minnesota’s employers and taxpayers are being overwhelmed by coastal billionaires and powerful unions.

The now-reflexive hostility of hard-left elements of the environmental lobby to any data-center development is having serious repercussions for our state.

On our country’s 250th birthday, let’s focus on confidence instead of self-contempt.

She is portraying herself as a moderate, but so did Walz before he was elected and then governed from the hard left.

Minnesota’s founders included the single-subject rule for a reason: to prevent exactly this kind of legislative logrolling, where unrelated policies are crammed into one massive bill.

DFL dominance over the past 20 years is not organic or grassroots. It is bankrolled … by two enormous forces … (that) are purchasing Minnesota’s elections.

“As executive director of the Minnesota Police & Peace Officers Association, Brian held the line in the most serious attack on law enforcement in the state’s modern history,” writes Jim Schultz.

Walz loves to remind us he is a former teacher, … but the more relevant question is whether kids are doing better under his leadership. The answer is ‘no’.

Minnesota, once known for good government, was famously referred to in a 1973 Time magazine cover as “The State That Works.” After six years of Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison, that reputation is gone.

Keith Ellison lied. He lied about what he knew. He lied about when he knew it. He lied to cover up a failure that cost Minnesotans a quarter of a billion dollars.

Tim Walz’s record as governor of Minnesota grows more troubling as the consequences of his policies have played out.

His decision to slash aid to nonpublic-school students for textbooks, transportation, counseling, and mental health services is an alarming attack on fairness, kids’ well-being, and common sense.

From the column: “Minnesota renewal requires setting aside forever many of the outright weird policies embraced under Gov. Walz. It’s a long list.”

Just two years ago, Minnesota had a historic surplus of nearly $19 billion. Yet instead of using that windfall to deliver lasting relief to the taxpayers who helped create it, DFL legislators pushed through a massive spending spree and introduced a host of new taxes.

Math is undefeated, and it is math that will now force budget cuts.
