Bumping this up in case you missed it, John. Scott Jensen – one of the most high profile peddlers of COVID-19 and vaccine misinformation in the state – announced he raised $1.2 million last year, shattering previous GOP gubernatorial fundraising records. The takeaway here is clear: Republicans are doubling down on the toxic, fact-free politics of Donald Trump. Governor Walz and Lt. Governor Flanagan are our last line of defense on so many critical issues, and we can’t take anything for granted.

These are scary numbers, John, especially for a candidate this extreme. Jensen has been one of the most prolific spreaders of misinformation since the early days of the pandemic and has only gone further off the deep end since. Jensen even endorsed Mike “The MyPillow Guy” Lindell’s unhinged 2020 election conspiracy theory campaign, claiming Minnesotans “should thank" Lindell for his effort promoting the Big Lie. Jensen’s fundraising numbers prove Trumpism is still alive and well in the Minnesota Republican Party, and it’s going to take everything we have to keep them from retaking power in November.
