I noticed that Minnesota Democrats Exposed contributor, Aaron Cocking, retweets other Minnesota GOP Twitter users a lot. By a lot, I mean that just about all he does is pass along other people’s opinions rather than have any of his own. For example, here’s a look at his most recent tweets: Retweet, retweet, retweet, retweet, [...]
This looks like a case of technology revealing hypocrisy. Check out the little zinger from Ben Golnik where he says I need to get out of Minneapolis more: Ha ha. You got me Ben. I live in Minneapolis, so I have no idea what the value of a dollar is to average Minnesotans. You must [...]
Rep. Marty Seifert has been criticizing how RT Rybak has spent 0.03% of City of Minneapolis budget in order to make a case that Rybak’s priorities are out of whack. Seifert’s fawned outrage revolves around a portion of a $500,000 1-time expenditure on artistic drinking fountains. Given that outrage, it seems safe to assume that [...]
Thanks to Ben Golnik for a link to more information regarding the cost of artsy vs non-artsy drinking fountains: Using Ben Golnik’s numbers, we can see that the savings from purely pragmatic drinking fountains vs artsy drinking fountains isn’t enough to put even one cop on the streets of Minneapolis for ten years when salary, [...]

Tomorrow, the city of Minneapolis will lay off 25 police officers as a part of budget cuts. You may recall that just last year, Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak [...]

I’m not sure if Carly or one of her friends came up with this concept, but it definitely wasn’t me. But that hasn’t stopped me from playing along. Each month, we’re running one 20-mile run. Simple enough. Just get out of bed on a Saturday and keep moving for 20 miles in a row. We [...]
It should come as no surprise that Luke Hellier has problems with easily documented facts based on his recent track record. Here’s yet another example of Luke Hellier making stuff up to support his ill-conceived narrative regarding RT Rybak’s tenure as Mayor of Minneapolis: That’s an interesting statement from Luke Hellier that’s relatively easy to [...]
This is one of the most offensive things I’ve read: I get the impression that Luke Hellier doesn’t know me and isn’t a regular reader of The Deets. Perhaps I’m wrong about this, but if I was to describe the type of stuff I blog about, I think a description of fact based with commentary [...]
Minnesota Democrats Exposed’s incompetent blogger in chief, Luke Hellier, has been raising alarmist red flags about the state of crime in my City of Minneapolis that deserve to be smacked down. For example, he through out this nugget where he suggested that “facts are facts”: We’ve already gone over the rape statistics where Luke Hellier [...]
