"The current Red Team candidate, Pete Stauber, is about as rock solid as you can get. I had the chance to meet Pete, his wife and one of his sons up in Duluth a couple weeks ago. Awesome family. I can't wait to call Pete Congressman Stauber."
Today is a big day up on "Da Range". Why? The President is coming up to talk about mining issues with some of the local hardhats. I am thinking that the corks might be flying out of the bottles at Poly Met right now. Having the President come to the back yard of where this new copper-nickel mine will be is, well, "YUGE".
President Trump may be looked upon as Fool's Gold down on the southern border right now, but with his base - he is more popular than pure titanium. When he hops on Air Force One to come to Duluth this afternoon, he will have my Congressman, Tom Emmer in tow with him. Why? In absence of a Red Team CD 8 Congressman right now, Tom Emmer has been the cheerleader for opening up this area for mining. Once we get Pete Stauber elected to be our next CD 8 Congressman, Pete will then be the on-site guy for mining issues and opportunities.
Duluth will be the hot ticket in the state today. The rally starts about 6:30 tonight. They had already sold out the auditorium they were going to have it in, so they had to change the venue to something bigger. It will be at the same huge facility we had the state convention in. It will be the epicenter for what is happening in Minnesota tonight. Since this huge facility is sold out for the event, I can't wait to see how the "lap dog" media reports on the crowd size tomorrow.
Of course, no Red Team Presidential visit would be complete without throngs of the disenchanted to jeer him. The "Resist" and Antifa lackeys will be present. What are they going to protest this time? The southern border. Anything positive about Duluth? Nope. My only hope is that local law enforcement in Duluth can keep the lid these malcontents so they don't interfere with the patriots who came up north to cheer on their President.
The Iron Range is ripe for the picking right now. President Trump did very well in the range in 2016, and Stewart Mills came within an eyelash of upending Rick Nolan. But now Nolan is out, and Stewart decided not to run again. The current Red Team candidate, Pete Stauber, is about as rock solid as you can get. I had the chance to meet Pete, his wife and one of his sons up in Duluth a couple weeks ago. Awesome family. I can't wait to call Pete Congressman Stauber.
One more thing. Some might wonder how Governor Dizzy and our President will hit it off today. Well, it seems that Dizzy won't be up there as he has a "scheduling conflict". Ya right. Too bad. Dizzy could have met someone who exhibits real leadership and courage. Unlike himself, who is owned and operated by every left-wing nut job organization in the state.
Damn, I have a schedule conflict also and will have to miss out on the campaign rally in Duluth.
ReplyDeleteAt least it will give DJT a day outside of the beltway and there won't be any congressional interns telling him to .... himself and I can't imagine any "brown child abuse" protesters live in the MN tundra.
I will have to pass as we snowflakes are celebrating final city/county approval of the "streetcar" line from Union Station in Saint Paul to the Mall of America.
Next step is to seek Federal funding through the Met Council (before it is abolished by JJ).
Daily ridership is expected to be 24,000 by 2040.
Leave your self driving cars at home and take the trolley!
...sigh....It really is back to the future!
DeleteI see DJT, Sessions and Neilsen found out it wasn't the law after all to separate children from parents.
DeleteOR are they breaking the law? Like Obama did?
Just to ease your mind on that last score, the EO clearly spells out "within the law and availability of appropriations" (continuing the onus on Congressional Democrats) and have asked the courts to revisit the Flores ruling.
ReplyDeleteRegardless, I see the chief agitators and malcontents have already declared that they do not accept having the problem actually solved, and say they will challenge the solution offered in court.
Will be many years before we manage our immigration issues.
DeleteBuild the wall, funnel people through official POE.
Then the issue will be:
Where do we get the unskilled labor to keep our growing economy moving forward when we are at full employment and ICE is removing hundreds per day from our plants and factories.
Immigration is an absolute necessity in a full economy, both to produce and consume.
And Northern European folk aren't clamoring to get in.
DeleteOur public schools are turning out millions of unskilled workers, and we still have vast reserves of people not working but living on the government dime. So long as we can train people for SKILLED jobs, and bring in additional high-skill immigrants under the quotas, we should grow the economy very well. I don't think we need to ignore law-breaking to "help" the economy.
ReplyDeleteUS workers are great for the Skilled jobs, but who is going to slaughter the animals pick the crops, clean up after us?
DeleteAs the baby boomers retire, the need will be far greater than we can meet internally. Legal immigrants will be essential and they aren't going to come from Central America or Europe, so from where?
remember that the unemployment numbers reflect those LOOKING for work. Democrats are fond of saying that everybody that wants a job should have one, but I say everybody should have one whether they want it or not.
ReplyDeleteEarly hints about GOP entitlement reform indicate a move towards Work for Pay, especially re: SSDI
DeleteMAGA One out of 144 jobs at three of Trump's Florida and New York properties went to a U.S. worker between 2016 and 2017. The other 143 were given to foreign guest workers. They are legal temporary workers brought in under H-2B visas.
Delete"guest worker" happens to be my favored solution for those who are already in this country, legally or illegally. It has been said we cannot (and maybe even should not) "deport 'em all," but since the Social Security Admin. already knows where about 90% of them are working, we could put them immediately in "mandatory guest worker status" and they could decide for themselves whether they wanted to play by those rules (TBD) or go home right away. Add mandatory E-verify for new workers, and the "magnet" of undercover unemployment largely goes away.
DeleteIt is a HUGE problem-- approximately $1 Trillion per year going to non-productive citizens (OK, maybe under-productive). SSDI is where the growth has been, but I really think there are simple (in concept) solutions that would be far more effective and humanity-affirming.
