The U.S. Department of Labor's own inspector general just put Minnesota on blast.
His office audited 48 federal workforce grants to Minnesota's Department of Employment and Economic Development — about $253 million meant to retrain laid-off workers and help former inmates find jobs.
Four months after "numerous requests" for the books on 26 of those grants — $210.9 million — DEED handed over NOTHING. The inspector general recommended the agency be flagged for "noncompliance" and accused the state of "deliberate obstruction."
Here's the part that should chill you: without the records, investigators could not verify whether the program participants even EXISTED. Whether they got the training taxpayers paid for. Whether the reported wages were real.
DEED's excuse? The feds' questions were "too intrusive."
Translation: they took $210 million, and asking where it went is too nosy.
And let me be straight with you, like always: the inspector general did NOT say the $210 million was stolen. He said Minnesota's stonewalling means nobody can prove it wasn't. When the books stay closed, fraud hides in the dark.
This is exactly what I've been telling you for months. The legislature has passed dozens of anti-fraud laws. The problem is the executive branch won't follow them — won't verify recipients, won't open the books, won't answer questions. That's what I'll force them to do in the Senate.
16 days until Election Day. Time to take the keys away from the people who lose track of $210 million.

Great knowledge for us Starlink users. Thanks
A Starlink subscriber has paid $85/month for satellite internet for 2 years.
He mounted the dish on his roof. He connected to the WiFi. He opened Netflix. That was his entire Starlink experience $85/month for WiFi from space. Fast enough. Reliable enough. Good enough.
His neighbor a network engineer who also runs Starlink told him something during a fence-line conversation that made him pull out his phone and open the Starlink app for the first time since installation.
“You’re running Starlink on default settings. The default router name is broadcasting to everyone within a mile that you have Starlink including the serial number. Your WiFi bands are merged meaning your devices are fighting between 2.4GHz and 5GHz instead of connecting to the optimal frequency. You’ve never opened the hidden debug page that shows real-time satellite connections, latency, and obstruction data that the app doesn’t display. Your security is on WPA2 when WPA3 is available. You don’t have a guest network every visitor who connects has access to your entire local network. You’ve never run the split speed test that tells you whether your slow speeds are caused by the satellite connection or your WiFi signal. You’ve never configured content filtering the free malware and adult content blocker built into the router. And you’ve never opened the obstruction tool that would have told you the tree on the south side is blocking your signal for 6 minutes every hour.”
He showed him 11 Starlink settings, diagnostics, and capabilities that optimize speed, improve security, reduce cost, and unlock features the dish has been capable of since the day it was mounted.
Here’s every hidden Starlink feature most subscribers never configure 🧵

Several years ago, I did a long tribute to Dolly Parton on @KFAN1003. A legendary singer and songwriter, and somehow, an even better person. Stats below:
· 25 gold, platinum or multi-platinum albums
· 42 different top 10 albums, a record for any artist, any gender, any style of music
· She’s sold over 100M albums
· Her songs have reached No. 1…… 26 times, most of any female artist
· He songs have hit the charts… 110 times
· 46 Grammy award nominations, most of any female artist
· 42 CMA award nominations
· She’s been in the Country Music HOF for 25 years.
· One of the only people to have been nominated for an Emmy, Tony, Grammy, and Academy Award
· Made her Grand Ole Opry debut 55 years ago
· Married over 50 years
· Wrote 3,000 songs
· Her Dollywood Foundation mailed over 100m children's books.

An apt day to remember that Dolly Parton once recorded a cover of Stairway to Heaven - and, in defiance of every moral law in the universe, she absolutely owned it.

Under the ATF’s proposed “Firearm Records Retention Periods” rule change, the federal government would be able to hold Form 4473s for up to 60 years.
I’m urging the ATF to not only shorten its record retention, but to immediately DESTROY its illegal, searchable gun registry.

I’ve been on the floor all night, and I have stood by @BasedMikeLee to force a vote to keep the Senate in session.
I voted NO on adjourning, and am submitting my opposition to the record.
What’s clear tonight is this:
1.) Washington is broken.
2.) For many, going home remains the only incentive to get any work done.
3.) Democrats do not care about safeguarding our elections (we’ve known this).
4.) while we accomplished some major wins tonight by funding the government and confirming a new Attorney General, this body should not be leaving.
The fight for simple voter ID laws does not die tonight. As long as I’m representing the Free State of Florida, I will continue fighting for common-sense measures that safeguard our elections.

TODAY'S LESSON IN IRONY…
THE FOOD STAMP PROGRAM IS ADMINISTERED BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. THEY PROUDLY REPORT THAT THEY DISTRIBUTE 40 BILLION FREE MEALS & FOOD STAMPS TO OVER 37 MILLION PEOPLE ON AN ANNUAL BASIS.
MEANWHILE, THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE, RUN BY THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR, ASKS US, "PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS". THEIR STATED REASON FOR THIS POLICY BEING THAT..
"THE ANIMALS WILL GROW DEPENDENT ON THE HANDOUTS, AND THEN THEY WILL NEVER LEARN TO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES".
THIS CONCLUDES TODAY'S LESSON.
ANY QUESTIONS?

Mainstream media aired years of conspiracy theories that Russia controlled the Trump administration, but one Trump speech on election integrity is too much for NBC. This is an admission of guilt. The 2020 election is a stain on our nation’s history - it was rigged to hell.

TRENDING: People are saying that ABC, CBS, and NBC should lose their broadcast licenses for refusing to air President Trump's national address on election security.
They are calling on the @FCC to yank their licenses.
