Red Flags in Wisconsin and Minnesota

~ admin ~ Leave a comment

voter fraudAnne-Christine Hoff – The  mainstream media continues to pitch the idea that the November 3 presidential election was free and fair. Yet the numbers just don’t add up. Looking closely at outcomes in states like Minnesota and Wisconsin, certain “red flag” patterns emerge. First, both states experienced an anomalous 89% voter turnout, a number between 14 and 22 points higher than the turnout in the 2016 General Election.

Secondly, both states had a surprisingly high number of ballots that were not completely filled out with a large portion of incomplete ballots either cast for Biden but not for a U.S. House Democrat (95% in Minnesota; 57% in Wisconsin) or a disproportionately high number of incomplete ballots cast for a US House Republican but not for Trump (43% in Wisconsin) [See link  for more complete data.].

Minnesota’s New GMO Labeling Bill Could Change Everything

MonsantoHQWhen you think of GMO labeling initiatives, you probably don’t immediately think about the tucked away Midwestern state of Minnesota. But in a move that could very well beat out states like California and New York in finally achieving a full-fledged GMO labeling law system, Minnesota legislatures have introduced brand new highly-backed GMO labeling legislation that is shaping up to be quite promising.

Never before would you think that the battleground for GMO awareness and legislative overhaul would in fact take place at a St. Paul, Minneapolis court house, but that is exactly the current epicenter for the future decision that could impact states as far away as Florida and Texas.

Even with the introduction of SB 335 back in April of 2014, which would require the disclosure (through labeling) of genetically modified ingredients before or on January of 2017, it has sent GMO-based food manufacturers and biotech corporations into a frenzy. One that is full of the same old arguments we have heard (and proven to be lies) in the past, such as their ridiculous claims that: Continue reading →

John Evans ~ Town Bans Homeowners From Renting Their Property

winonamnProperty owners in Minnesota are challenging a first-of-its-kind ordinance restricting rental properties in the city of Winona.

The city, which is home to Winona State University, passed the ordinance in 2006 capping the number of rental properties on any block at 30 percent of the block’s total homes, according to Watchdog Minnesota. The law was meant to curb “excessive on-street parking, anti-social behavior and deteriorating housing conditions.”

But some believe it’s going too far.

“To me it’s getting beyond what elected officials are supposed to do — starting to dictate who can rent, who can’t rent, who can do this, who can do that,” Ted Dzierzbicki, one of the three plaintiffs in a legal challenge against the law, told Watchdog. ”They’re not the kind of laws that benefit and protect people. It’s more to do with somebody having a bug about something and trying to get a law towards it.”

Property owners with rental units were grandfathered in under the ordinance, which means the number of houses that can be rented varies per block. The Institute for Justice says it’s the first ordinance of its kind in the nation.
