There is a lot of talk about school closures and their impact.
Reminds me of a massive school closure from almost 20 years ago…
Let me tell you about it…
In the 1972, during the AIM movement, a Native American school was started near Minneapolis South High called “Heart of the Earth.”
It was well loved by the community.
In the late 1990’s it turned into a charter school and Minneapolis Public Schools became its “authorizer” responsible for oversight and audit…
Despite requirements to audit and look over finances, and despite some strange dealings of the executive director, MPS board consistently deferred their oversight responsibilities with Heart of the Earth, and in 2006 even unanimously reapproved the charter despite never once having conducted any glance into the operations of the school.
Well, an audit was finally done, and in 2008 the director of Heart of the Earth was convicted of embezzling millions of dollars meant for Native American students and, after nearly 40 years, the school was forced to shut down.
An entire community lost its school, one that had been hard fought to build, and it has never been the same.
One person should not destroy a legacy school. It’s actually not possible.
The gross mismanagement and lax oversight that befell HOTE was due to MPS and its board not prioritizing and fulfilling due diligence, and the entire community suffered for it.
They turned a blind eye before the check came due, much like we’re seeing revisited this week.
It’s an important cautionary tale for many reasons not the least of which is this:
Of the then 7 member Minneapolis school board that unanimously turned a blind eye to agressive fraud-
only one still holds elected office,
Only one was Native American,
Only one continues to preside over embezzlement and fraud.
Do you know who that member is?
Peggy Flanagan.
“Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it.”
Folks -- Do NOT miss President Trump's address tonight at 9PM Eastern. This is going to be HISTORICALLY important. Millions of us have prayed these things would be exposed. We need transparency and honesty. God bless America!
It was a “Gun Fight” in the MN House today….
Ending in a 67-67 party line vote.
The Minnesota House Republican’s stopped the most radical piece of gun legislation from going into law this year.
THEY say “weapons of war”
☑️REALITY CHECK
The MN Democrats extreme bill would ban “common” handguns and hunting rifles that hundreds-of-thousands of Minnesotans own
This was NOT a reasonable piece of gun Legislation
☑️REALITY CHECK
Their Gun Bill added gun registration and would have made felons out of lawful abiding gun owners
After the Vote ended in a 67-67 tie……. The Democrats became unhinged screaming at the Republicans……. Some even saying “go f….g shoot yourself” and “go f…..g kill yourself”
To be clear…….
The MN Democrats just spent 6-hours advocating for taking YOUR guns away (which they claim would end gun violence) and then screamed at people who do not think 100% like they do……. “To go kill themselves”

They put Douglass Mackey in prison for a meme. They put Steve Bannon in prison for following the Constitution. They jailed Christian pastors for praying outside abortion mills. They put grannies in prison for walking in an open government building during business hours.
All I ask for is reciprocal treatment.
Thank you all for watching and sharing, it’s important that this fraud is exposed. I tried my best to just show the facts and make it transparent for everyone to see.
I've been getting thousands of messages from people who want to support my work, the most important thing is to follow me here on X and on youtube!
For those that would like to support financially you can become a member on youtube ($5 a month) or I accept donations via venmo/cashapp @ Nickshirley21
The fraud exposing will continue... and no I’m not suicidal, and yes the donations will be used for security. Security for this video alone cost $3,600 so it is not cheap but necessary. Appreciate you all for watching and caring 🙌🏼
BREAKING:
DEMS BLOCK PAY for Heroes in Shutdown!
��� Senate Dems just VOTED NO on paying troops, TSA, Border Patrol during THEIR shutdown. Workers SLAVE unpaid—Dems demand radical bailouts FIRST.
Cruelty EXPOSED.
Tag a fed worker. RT if FURIOUS.
My dear American friends,
We British Christians would get excited when, once a year, Queen Elizabeth would make a mild but sincere reference to the love of Jesus Christ in her Christmas address.
In Charlie Kirks' Memorial service, watched by tens of millions, I just heard:
- Multiple clear presentations of the gospel from men like @robmccoyus and @DrFrankTurek with clear calls to repentance and faith
- Worship songs full of Scripture sung by tens of thousands live and millions at home
- Personal testimonies of lives transformed by the work of Christ and the witness of believers
- Demonstration and explanation of the value of marriage, child-rearing and family
- Calls to Romans 13 for the government to bear the sword for the protection of good and punishment of the wicked
- Declarations of spiritual warfare on the forces of evil and promises to endure no matter the cost
- Calls to be prophets and call the nation to repent
- More Scripture references and Bible readings than I can count
- And a widow publicly forgiving her husband's killer because Christ forgave his killers on the cross.
All of it done before, and by, the most powerful people in your nation and the world.
You guys should be on your knees thanking God for your country. It is a light to the world.
Never stop fighting for it.
I don’t know where this fantasy came from that President Trump never acknowledged the Hortmans.
He issued a statement that morning, and his administration pushed to take over the case so they could pursue far greater penalties since there is no death penalty in Minnesota.
It’s always been a strange place politically — the first communist mayor in the country. Red Finns on the Iron Range…..but it was white Scandinavian, German & Irish. Diversity killed Minnesota. It’s a welfare magnet — a very wealthy state with socialist leanings.
It’s also a felon magnet with the least amount of time-served after Maine. So you got the Chicago and Houston gang bangers coming up (see George Floyd) Hmong refugees in the 70’s and 80’s (Gran Torino was about St. Paul, not Detroit) then massive Somalian refugee resettlement starting in the 90’s— a terrible culture of people who refuse to assimilate and commit fraud against every government program there is…..Then there’s the LGBT nut cases who have always flocked to MN from surrounding states, so tons of activism.
Tim Walz, Jacob Frey, Keith Ellison and many more politicians aren’t from Minnesota — so it’s a magnet for left wing progressives to run for office as well & now you have the DNC chair from MN.
Minnesota Nice naivety, white privilege taught at the University of MN seeped down into the schools 20 years ago. Major racial tension but nobody was allowed to talk about it. Extremely weak moderate Republicans— so no real opposition party. (That’s a whole other story).
And - finally - the worst, least ethical local news media in the country that still gets away with yokel ya you betcha BS when the state is a dumpster fire.
Beth chose to outsource her manufacturing to China and make more money for herself by giving jobs to Chinese people rather than Minnesotans.
She is now paying the consequences.
She should spend her time figuring out a different manufacturing country, rather than doing press conferences to whine about it.
FYI - Mike Lindell and MyPillow make their products right in Minnesota giving jobs to Minnesotans, and they have done just fine, until the Democrats decided they wanted to destroy them for wrongthink.
Whether its Keith Ellison's dealings with Feeding Our Future or violating every rule in the book to pass the grand theft omnibus, House Democrats can't stand being called on their BS.
They weave Trump into every speech, but object to any mention of themselves.
Union workers: Trump’s tariffs are ‘very positive thing’ for auto, steel industries
Union workers in the automobile and steel industry said Wednesday that President Donald Trump’s tariffs on foreign imports are a “very positive thing” for their industries.
Everyone agrees that globalization was good for corporate profits. No one is arguing that. But it was also bad for ordinary American workers. The two are not always in alignment.
What is good for corporate profits is not always good for America. On the other hand, what is good for America will also, ultimately, be good for American corporations.
The stock market rises and falls on corporations' profits, but the future of America rises and falls on the strength of America's people, workers, and families.
The fall of American manufacturing meant that 90,000 factories closed, 5 million workers lost their jobs, and countless communities were gutted, while an elite few became spectacularly rich.
Not only do tariffs put workers first, President Trump's tariff policies are also deconstructing the fake, sugar high Biden economy that was built on an unsustainable house of cards of permanent deficit spending, illegal immigration, and loose monetary policy.
President Trump is building the foundation for healthier, made-in-America growth that doesn't leave workers and their families behind.
Ultimately, corporations will benefit too. Just like there was a pull back when Reagan took office as he fought inflation and economic malaise which gave birth to the bull run of the 80s, President Trump's policies can and I believe will deliver an economic boom.
JUST IN: The Minnesota House votes down a bill to restore protections for infants who survive botched abortions, with all Democrats voting against it and all Republicans voting in favor.
🚨 BREAKING: The Minnesota House just blocked legislation that would have to restored protections for babies who survive botched abortions.
Every single Democrat voted against this legislation. All Republicans supported the legislation.
