Peggy Flanagan Is Going For Minn Senate Spot!

Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan declares she will not take AIPAC funding if she runs for U.S. Senate.

Lieutenant governor of Minnesota announced her bid to replace outgoing Sen. Tina Smith (D-MN). The Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party of Minnesota is an affiliate of the Democratic Party. 

Peggy Flanagan announced her bid for the U.S. Senate and it is going to be somewhat competitive. Former vice president Kamala Harris carried the state by four points. 

She barely won it. It was due to her and former president Joe Biden's refusal to listen to Muslims and Arab Americans who called for them to stop aiding Israel. They're refusal to listen to the 2020 voters cost him his reelection and her presidential election.

The centrists are still not getting it. We are tired of the status quo.

Flanagan is a member of the White Earth Band of Ojibwe. She is a former state representative who became lieutenant governor for Minnesota governor (former vice presidential nominee) Tim Walz.

She declared on X that she will not accept money from AIPAC. But what about J Street and Democratic Majority for Israel or the rest of the donor elites?

Flanagan can speak a mean game on not taking from the donor elite, but the proof is in the pudding. We must hold all politicians accountable.

Sens. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) have already endorsed her.

Again, endorsements do not mean votes. Think about how Andrew Cuomo having the backing of President Donald J. Trump, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Elon Musk, Eric Adams, 50 Cent, Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-NY), Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY), Rep. Laura Gillen (D-NY), the New York Post and New York Daily News. These endorsements shows clearly how out of touch these folks are

It did not earn him the mayorship.
