.@Michele_Tafoya is turning Minnesota into a battleground state! Volunteer, donate and door knock and let’s get Michele over the goal line.
BATTLE FOR MINNESOTA: @Garrett_FoxNews reports live from Minneapolis on how the U.S. Senate race in Minnesota is suddenly turning into a high-stakes battleground. Republican nominee and former sports broadcaster Michele Tafoya is putting pressure on Democratic nominee and Lieutenant Governor Peggy Flanagan, focusing heavily on a massive fraud scandal that unfolded under the Walz administration. While Flanagan has distanced herself from the oversight failures, national Republican leaders like Senate Majority Leader John Thune note that the state is emerging as a prime opportunity to put Democrats on the defensive as both sides clash over inflation, national policies, and accountability.

DFL Rep. Kristi Pursell (58A) says Teddy Roosevelt endorsed her - cute costume. But TR spent his whole presidency hunting down waste & demanding answers for every dollar of public money. That's not really the DFL brand right now, is it? Minnesotans already have #9Billion reasons to vote red this November. This just adds another one to the pile. #mnleg #RealRoughRider

Despite the frustration with Clickergate that I share with many, I really did enjoy the @mngop State Convention. I look forward to going again. But apparently I will have to get a better gift for my daughters next time. I thought the @TadJude_MN03 mini state flag was plenty!

The conversation needs to shift from: “Why isn’t John Thune bringing the SAVE America Act to a vote?” To “Why is John Thune the majority leader?”

If the establishment fought as hard for the SAVE America Act as they do for a weak incumbent who spent $100 million only to be rejected by nearly 60% of GOP voters, it would already be law. It's sad incumbent protection is more important than advancing President Trump's agenda.

If you want Minnesota to flip red in 2026, you need to run to be a delegate. The endorsed candidates are the ones who make the November ballot. Show up and make sure we nominate the strongest possible ticket. Precinct caucuses are Tuesday, February 3rd.

At JD Vance’s press conference, the TRADITIONAL Minnesota flag is being displayed rather than Tim Walz’s new Somalian state flag.

Thanks to President Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill, millions of Americans may see the largest tax refunds of their lives in 2026. And as withholdings are adjusted, millions will take home bigger paychecks every month this year. The President wants to get this money into the hands of the American people as soon as possible. That’s why, today, I am breaking news: I am proud to announce one of the earliest starts to the tax season in the last decade. This year, the tax season will officially begin on January 26. After this date, most of the benefits of the President’s bill will begin to materialize, presenting a major tailwind for our economy in 2026.

The irony, America sends $16.5 MILLION in taxpayer dollars to build clean water systems for drought-affected communities in Ethiopia's Somali Region. Meanwhile, small U.S. towns like Lexington, MN (pop. ~4,000) can't get $10M for a desperately needed water treatment plant—because of waste, fraud, and misplaced priorities. We fund water abroad while Americans go without at home.

I want every ICE officer to know that their president, vice president, and the entire administration stands behind them. To the radicals assaulting them, doxxing them, and threatening them: congratulations, we're going to work even harder to enforce the law.
