I have two kids. When I saw the direction this country was headed, I had a choice: stay comfortable in a career I love, or speak up. Matt Calkins made that same choice. He resigned from the Seattle Times rather than be muzzled. Speaking up costs you. But is it worth it? You bet it is. Minnesota, you're worth fighting for. I won't stay silent now. I won't stay silent in Washington.

Peggy Flanagan says the fraud is not her problem. Blame the governor, she says. She was Tim Walz's right hand for eight years, on a taxpayer paycheck the whole time. When he was out campaigning with Kamala Harris, she was the one in charge. Minnesota deserves accountability, not excuses.

What is happening to Caitlin Clark right now is horrible. This woman has carried the WNBA to new heights, yet they don’t seem to care that she is taking beatings left and right. They even snubbed her on the WNBA's 30th-anniversary poster. If the WNBA cares about the success of its brand, it needs to get smart and protect Clark.

Minnesotans cannot afford to have Tim Walz's mini-me, Peggy Flanagan, in the Senate. You deserve better than the same failures, same fraud, and same ultra-partisan politics that got us here. Minnesota deserves a fresh start, not more of the same. The best is yet to come for Minnesota. Let’s win this in November.

If you're still deciding who to vote for tomorrow, here's my closing message: I've never run for office. I had a career I loved and walked away from it. Not because I wanted to be a politician. Because Minnesota needs leaders with the courage to stand up and say enough. Let's give Minnesota what it deserves.

The legacy media doesn't hate Sophie Cunningham because she's wrong. They hate her because she's right, and she won't shut up. She has courage. She has principle. She has an opinion they don't share. That's it. That's the whole "controversy." Women's sports belong to women. Simple as that.

Peggy Flanagan did not talk about fraud one time last night. Why? Because she does not care. She does not care that billions of taxpayer dollars were stolen on her watch as Minnesota’s lieutenant governor. She does not care that families did not receive the services they needed because Feeding Our Future fraudsters became rich. All Peggy Flanagan cares about is getting promoted to the U.S. Senate.

Minnesotans have lost billions to fraud, and Peggy Flanagan plans to raise your taxes. She spent eight years standing next to Tim Walz while your money got siphoned through their government and handed to criminals. Now she wants a promotion. In the Senate, I will work to lower your taxes, make life more affordable, and find out where the rest of your money went.

I’ve had enough of the performance. Keith Ellison pretending to know about movies is the same as him pretending to be tough on crime. Neither one is real. A new report shows most convicted fraudsters in Minnesota walk away without a felony on their record. Minnesotans are done watching politicians fake it. We see right through it. And we're fed up.

Sorry, Hillary. I didn't vote for you. Because solely being a woman isn't a qualification for leadership. I want my daughter and every young girl in Minnesota to know one thing: You earn your place. You think for yourself. And you never let anyone put you in a box. That's the Minnesota I'm fighting for.

.Jason Garrett has spent his life around winners as an NFL player, a head coach, and now a broadcaster. He's known me for 25 years. He knows my character, my values, and exactly why I'm running. I'm deeply grateful for his support and his kind words. Minnesota needs a Senator who believes what she says and acts on what she believes. That's my commitment to you.

Are you paying attention yet? Thanks to Governor Tim Walz, our tax dollars in Minnesota will now be used to buy transgender dolls with "swappable genitalia." This should infuriate every taxpayer. It seems like every day we are in the news for some absurd reason thanks to radical Democrats in this state. How much longer are we going to put up with this?

Minnesota has tried one-party control for 20 years, and here’s where that got us: $9 billion in fraud and stolen taxpayer money, rising crime, and failing schools. Peggy Flanagan is more of the same, a failed career politician who enabled the policies that got us here. Her way doesn’t work. Why would we promote her?

You cannot make this up. Salman Ahmed Elmi received an Entrepreneurship Award from the Walz-Flanagan administration. His “business”: human trafficking and sexual abuse. Fraud. Human trafficking. Theft. Rewarded by Walz-Flanagan. Peggy Flanagan has been lieutenant governor for eight years. This is her record. Minnesotans deserve better.

The far-left wanted the World Cup to fail so the White House would look bad. Yet, people from across the world are coming to America and raving about our welcoming hospitality, amazing sports facilities, and even our food! This is a great moment as we celebrate 250 years of America and all that makes our nation exceptional.
