Tim Walz Might Run for President in 2028
if You Ask Him Nicely
Posted By: NorthernDog, 3/2/2025 8:19:59 PM
There was a moment not long ago when we all got to know Tim Walz—a big, bluff, good-humored guy, born in Nebraska, who became a teacher, a football coach, and the governor of Minnesota. For three months last year, he campaigned on the national ticket with Kamala Harris. As late as Election Day, Walz was convinced that he and Harris were headed to the White House. He was going to be the Vice-President of the United States, living at the Naval Observatory, one heartbeat away from the Presidency.

Dozens of Democratic congresswomen are planning to wear pink to President Donald Trump’s Joint Address to Congress on Tuesday night as part of a coordinated protest against the President’s policies. New Mexico Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández, who chairs the Democratic Women’s Caucus, confirmed exclusively to TIME on Monday that the pink attire is meant to “signal our protest of Trump's policies which are negatively impacting women and families.” “Pink is a color of power and protest,” she says in an interview. “It’s time to rev up the opposition and come at Trump loud and clear.” Trump’s return to the Capitol
Forty-six percent of surveyed American voters said that neither the U.S. nor Ukraine walked away as a winner from last week’s tumultuous meeting between President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, according to a new Emerson College poll released Monday. Another 35 percent of surveyed voters said the U.S. walked away as a winner, while 15 percent said the same about Ukraine. Four percent said both counties were “equally successful.” The poll also showed a stark, partisan divide in how Americans view the meeting, with 57 percent of Democrats saying neither country walked away as a winner. Another 25 percent

LONDON — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has arrived at a London summit of European leaders to discuss the war in his country, two days after talks broke down in dramatic fashion at the White House with U.S. President Donald Trump. Trump blasted Zelenskyy for not being grateful enough for U.S. support. Zelenskyy arrived after several of his peers, including French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. Ursula von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, NATO’s Secretary General
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said he wanted the US to "stand more firmly on our side" after a fiery White House exchange with US President Donald Trump on Friday. After arriving in the UK to take part in a European leaders' summit, Zelensky urged the US to continue its support for Ukraine despite "the tough dialogue" between the two sides. (Snip) Earlier, Zelensky published a thread of 14 posts on X in which he reiterated calls for US security guarantees to form part of any "just and lasting" peace deal to end the war with Russia. He noted that Trump
Everyone knew yesterday’s meeting between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was going to be high-stakes, with Kyiv’s survival hanging in the balance. What nobody expected was the diplomatic disaster for Ukraine that unfolded, with the two presidents descending into a yelling match on international television that may have done more damage than any battlefield defeat at Russia’s hands so far. (Snip) Wrong. Instead, Zelensky demonstrated the diplomatic skills of a first-year intern thrown into high-stakes negotiations. From the moment he walked into the White House, his casual attire caught Trump’s attention. During the now-infamous meeting, all seemed
One year after California introduced a first-of-its-kind $20 minimum wage for fast-food workers, an increase of up to 70 cents is slated for a vote. California's Fast Food Council, comprised of fast-food workers, restaurant owners and state officials, approved a motion Wednesday to consider a cost-of-living-adjustment at an upcoming meeting. (Snip) Workers and labor advocates said the increase was needed to address rising costs of living in one of the country's most expensive states to live. Veronica Gonzales, a fast-food worker, spoke remotely from a room full of workers organized under the California Fast Food Workers Union’s San Jose chapter.
SAN FRANCISCO — Democrats have reportedly begun sounding out potential successors to Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi amid rumors that the long-serving Bay Area congresswoman may step down at the end of her term. The San Francisco Standard, citing sources with knowledge of the matter, is reporting that the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee has begun gathering information on potential candidates to replace Pelosi. (Snip) Current House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries was greeted by demonstrators during a book promotion stop in Oakland earlier this week, demanding he “Be Ruthless.” “He’s not fighting what’s happening here, and on top of it, he’s

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz won’t seek Minnesota’s open U.S. Senate seat next year and is instead considering a run for a third term as governor, the Democrat’s spokesman announced Wednesday. “He loves his job as governor,” Walz’s spokesman Teddy Tschann said in a written statement. The former vice presidential candidate announced his decision nearly two weeks after U.S. Sen. Tina Smith, a Democrat, announced she would not seek reelection in 2026. Walz was among a flurry of those from both major political parties who then began testing the waters for the state’s first open Senate race
Olivia Troye, who served as an adviser to former Vice President Mike Pence during President Donald Trump's first term, defended Joy Reid after MSNBC announced her show, The Reidout, was being canceled. Newsweek reached out to Reid for comment via email. (Snip) Troye described the cancellation as "a tremendous loss for them and a disheartening signal to all who believe in honest, transformative dialogue." "Few experiences have been as defining as my time as a guest on Joy Reid's show, The Reid Out," she wrote. "Joy's fearless discourse and unwavering commitment to truth reshaped my understanding of what the media

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. — Some believe the Democratic Party’s next savior is living here, huddled with family, in the relative obscurity of a small city on the shores of Lake Michigan. Pete Buttigieg has yet to decide if that’s a responsibility he wants. For now, Buttigieg, the 43-year-old former U.S. transportation secretary, is discussing his future with party officials, labor leaders and top strategists. He must decide soon whether he wants to return to the national spotlight as a candidate in Michigan’s U.S. Senate race or step aside to instead seek a much bigger role as his party’s next presidential
A stunning new Harvard-Harris poll conducted this month found that President Donald Trump’s approval rating is 9 points above water. According to the survey of 2,443 registered voters, 52% of the electorate approves of Trump’s performance in office thus far — with 33% indicating they “strongly approve” and another 19% saying they somewhat approve. Forty-three percent, meanwhile, say they disapprove of Trump, with 32% strongly disapproving and 11% somewhat disapproving. What’s more is that Trump is performing well with certain key constituencies he has struggled with at various other points in his political career. More independents (45%-44%), women (47%-45%), Hispanics

Republican lawmaker is introducing legislation to immortalize President Donald Trump on $100 bills. Congressman Brandon Gill, who represents Texas' 26th Congressional District, said that he plans to introduce a bill to feature Trump's likeness on the $100 note once his current term concludes.
"President Trump could be enjoying his golden years golfing and spending time with his family," Gill told Fox News Digital. "Instead, he took a bullet for this country and is now working overtime to secure our border, fix our uneven trade relationship with the rest of the world, make America energy independent again, and put America first by ending useless foreign aid."

While I don't expect many people reading this article to be purveyors of the legacy media, most are probably on social media. That means they see the clips of Democrats appearing on the broadcast networks, MSNBC, and the like, and if they are perceptive, they've probably noticed something. Namely, that certain former "fresh faces" of the Democratic Party aren't so fresh anymore.
For context, it's been weeks since there's been an article on RedState covering something Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said. That would have been unheard of a few years ago, but guess who has had five articles written about her since then? That would be Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX).
China is reportedly working on a massive nuclear powered aircraft carrier to rival or potentially surpass the United States’ largest carrier.
Satellite imagery studied by analysts speaking with NBC News revealed that the Chinese Navy is working on a new ship which will allow fighter jets to be launched from four different areas of the flight deck, which is unlike anything in the current Chinese fleet.
“We think this is them testing equipment and layouts for the upcoming Type 04 carrier,” stated James Martin Center for Nonproliferation Studies researcher Michael Duitsman. China already claims the throne as the world’s largest navy,
It’s that time of year.

After Trump Admin Designates Them as Terrorist Orgs 15 replies
Mexican drug cartels are reportedly in fear and going into hiding, and Mexican law enforcement officials have ramped up arrests and drug busts in response to the Trump administration threatening to hit the country with tariffs.
Several cartel members told the New York Times they had either “gone into hiding” or were in the process of “trying to figure out how to protect” their families “in case the American military” launches strikes in Mexico as a result of the Trump administration designating the crime syndicates as terrorist organizations.
In a bombshell interview on The Joe Rogan Experience, Elon Musk and Joe Rogan tore into the suspicious circumstances surrounding the July 13, 2024, assassination attempt on President Donald Trump at his Butler, Pennsylvania rally—a rally that, curiously, was the only Trump event CNN bothered to stream live during the entire campaign. Now, billionaire investor Bill Ackman is demanding answers, calling for an investigation into why the far-left network broke its pattern of ignoring Trump rallies just in time to broadcast an attempt on his life.
Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah became depressed and was emotionally changed by Israel’s exploding pager attack on his operatives as well as by strikes that decimated the group’s leadership, his family told Lebanese media. His son said Nasrallah was noticeably no longer the same man, and his daughter revealed that he cried after the beeper attack. Nasrallah’s son, daughter, and three grandchildren spoke to Al-Manar television for interviews that were broadcast on Friday.
A most dangerous war took a perilous turn on Friday. In what was planned to be a brief, cordial, greeting, President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy squared off in the Oval Office and left an alliance shaken. For three years, the west has stood against Russia's unprovoked invasion of an innocent country. Ukraine is a vanity war for Russian dictator Vladimir Putin, who covets an empire. And for that alone, more than one million people have been killed or wounded on both sides. President Trump has boasted only he can end it quickly. But, in the last two weeks, his chaotic attempt alarmed allies
An 'Arm of the Kremlin'?

On CNN this morning, Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy, who might be the dumbest man in government today, decried the Trump administration’s position on the Russia/Ukraine war. You can read much more at the link, but I am going to focus on just a couple of points. First, the question asked by CNN’s Dana Bash:
Host Dana Bash said, “Do you think there’s hope of salvaging this relationship with Ukraine?”
This is mind-numbingly stupid. The proper question, as even Zelensky realizes, is whether Ukraine has hope of salvaging its relationship with the United States. So in this interview, you know from the beginning that you are in a fog of unknowing.
Murphy’s response
Anybody who watched the entire Oval Office meeting between President Trump and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky would know that it was not an “ambush” or a “setup” by Trump, as characterized by Democrats and malign media entities.
It was the opposite. If anyone came to that meeting in bad faith, it was clearly Zelensky, whose body language and attitude was negative from the start. Trump could not have been more cordial, having steered the complex negotiations with Russia and Ukraine to a first step where he believed peace was a real possibility. But Zelensky had other ideas. He contradicted, interrupted and insulted Trump, even
