Biden’s inflation is the highest level since 1980. Illegal border crossings hit a six-decade high. The United States suffered a crushing and humiliating military defeat that saw 13 U.S. Marines losing their lives during the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal unconstitutional vaccine mandates divided Americans; corruption scandals involving the president’s own immediate family members dominated the headlines.

Joe Biden’s policies brought such devastation to our country. Did the Democrats hold Biden accountable for his failures? No! They were busy attacking President Trump with sham publicity stunts and supporting Nancy Pelosi’s totally rigged, phony Jan. 6 commission. Nancy Pelosi was to protect all of us.

Our open southern border: The left removed Trump’s “Remain in Mexico Policy” and now prevents Border Patrol and ICE agents from doing their job. As a result, illegal immigration has reached an all-time crisis point. Deadly drugs like fentanyl, violent gang members, human traffickers and even terrorists are pouring over our border unchecked-sent to live in every city and small towns in America.

The following is from the desk of U. S. Congressman Brad Finstad: We are on the brink of Minnesota and America falling into ruin. What has the leadership of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and their Democrat allies done? They have given us record-high inflation, fueled by the Democrats’ tax-and-spend policies. Sky-high prices for energy and fuel, a result of the left’s war on domestic energy production. A rapid escalation of our national debt, now at an alarming $32 trillion, due to their out-of-control spending. The implosion of three banks worth $532 billion since March.

Sadly, America now has a lower credit rating than Germany, Sweden Switzerland, and many other countries.

Far-left Gov. Tim Walz and his progressive Democratic majorities blew through the $17 billion surplus and exploded state spending by 40%. They also passed legislation affirming that our state will allow abortions up to the moment of birth and that Minnesota is now a “Trans Refuge” state.

What has Kamala Harris accomplished? She was to take care of the border; she didn’t — it’s wide open. She was to take care of California as attorney. Nothing happened to the criminals and crime. People are leaving the state. She acts as if she is a movie star; no one knows her agenda. She took Trump’s idea: “No tax on tips.” As we speed toward 2024, prominent Democratic leaders in Congress have presented a 28-page document to the Biden White House that demands President Joe Biden use executive action and the Department of Justice to crack down on conservative Christians, especially churches and ministry, remove Christians from public office, deny free speech and religious liberty to Christians, remove “In God We Trust” from U. S. currency and fully fund “comprehensive” sex education, which includes brainwashing children into radical LGBTQ — and even to undergo gender transition. There’s no joy in the Harris and Walz agenda. Vote for Trump and J. D. Vance.
