Dems Really Should Break Their Addiction to Voting for Scumbags
Top O' the Briefing
Happy Tuesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Sheyrdebrüundt was determined to make a go of snapping Polaroids of any corduroy he encountered in the wild.
In my over four decades of political activism, I've obviously been around for the careers of a lot of unsavory Democrats. Teddy Kennedy comes to mind right away. I also lived in California for almost 25 years, and that was an endless parade of lefties who made me feel like I needed a Silkwood shower and the triumphant return of Quaaludes.
Never in all of that time, however, has there been a concentration of thoroughly awful people in Dem Land like there is here in the Year of Our Lord 2025. Concentration. Passel. Horde.
A whole bunch.
It's becoming quite apparent lately that one of the most execrable of the present-day Democrats is Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. I've only been to Minnesota once, so I'm not sure how the state's journey to the lunatic fringe of leftism happened. Maybe it's the stink from Canada. It's a disturbing cautionary tale, though.
This is from a post Catherine wrote about the Walz scandal:
The Trump White House pithily stated the disquieting and disgraceful facts of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s (D) money-laundering scandal.
Calling Walz “deeply disturbed,” the White House described the massive fraud scandal involving mostly Somali migrants that cost Minnesota taxpayers a billion dollars — and funded a terror group. Democrats are as corrupt as Hades, and failed vice presidential candidate Walz is one of the slimiest.
During the COVID-19 lockdowns and mandates, there was plenty of corruption and fraud involving taxpayer money. But the Somali-Walz scandal takes the cake, as the White House detailed
Gosh, it's been a whole day since I wrote about Democrats and COVID fraud.
Matt has more details here, and, as he writes, this scandal could bring everything crashing down on Walz. It certainly doesn't look great for him at the moment. This is from my Townhall colleague Dmitri Bolt:
The House Oversight Committee and the U.S. Treasury have both launched investigations into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz's involvement in a massive fraud scheme where Somali immigrants stole more than $1 billion from state taxpayers and funneled it to Al-Shabaab terrorists.
We know that consequences for politicians aren't what they used to be, but President Trump has been doing his best to bring them back into fashion. Here's the thing, though: Unless Walz ends up in a federal penitentiary, his political career isn't going to take a hit. The Dems in Minnesota have been electing this corrupt moron to office for 20 years now. Because Democrats love entrenched corruptocrats, Walz is running for his third term as governor.
Blue state Democrats have a penchant for voting for the worst that their party has to offer. At this point, there probably isn't a best, or even better, option. Zohran Mamdani and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez are far more representative of the 2025 Democrats than any members of the Blue Dog Coalition who may still be hanging around.
Now that I think about it, incarceration might not be enough to keep Democrats from voting for these miscreants.
It would be nice to see Tim Walz take some kind of hit for this. He is one of the most obnoxious politicians to emerge from an especially obnoxious political class. Each prominent Dem has one or two extremely unlikeable qualities, but Walz manages to throw together an entire suite of dreadful personality traits. He's even less authentic than Gavin Newsom. That takes real effort.
That isn't a crime, but perhaps it should be.
