Our new state flag

The new Minnesota flag features an eight-point star. This may be a Muslim star, but it's also in the capitol rotunda in St. Paul. On an elementary school field trip, we were taught that it was four letter M's. In recent years, the original Minnesota flag came under criticism for having an unrealistic depiction of American Indians. The friendly farmer and Indian kind of smoothed over what really happened in the 1800s. I was hoping the new flag would have a dreamcatcher on it. I like the simplified design with the K-shape of the state, but yeah, I didn't know about the Somali coloration.

Jamie Page for US House

I have spoken with three of the candidates for Minnesota Congressional District 3. Jamie Page is my choice. I had three litmus test questions, and only Jamie answered all three correctly.


  1. Would you have voted for the recent continuing resolutions on the budget? The correct answer is no.
  2. Are you willing to shut down the government in order to shut down the border? The correct answer is yes.
  3. Did Trump win in 2020? The correct answer is yes.

Our endorsing convention is Saturday, April 27. If you know any delegates or alternates, please spread the word.

4/27: I spoke with Brad Kohler today, and he also answered my questions correctly.
