Senator Paul Gazelka's Vision 2020; Clean coal, more nukes

The Minnesota Republicans introduced Minnesotans to their Vision 2020 plan earlier this month.  It’s a rough outline of their legislative agenda. The leader of the vision is Majority leader Sen. Paul Gazelka.

“Senate Republicans unveiled their legislative priorities in their ‘Vision 2020’,” wrote DFL Senator Melissa Franzen in an email this week. “The priorities they’re pushing? School vouchers, handouts to insurance companies, and voter suppression legislation, to name a few.”

Sen. Franzen’s claims were red meat thrown to her base for the purposes of fund raising. However, you can be certain that she’s not far off since Gazelka and Co. already have a strong track record in those three areas.

If you take a peak at the actual Vision 2020 on-line document you’ll see that they want to clear the way for the two mines to start up in northern Minnesota. They also want to see construction on the new Line 3 pipeline get under way.

They want these controversial and environment wrecking projects to happen in the name of jobs. They offer no support, however, for jobs in renewable energy - even though that’s the fastest growing employment sector in the economy.

In true trumpian fashion they claim they to support clean water and air by supporting unspecified clean coal and cutting edge nuclear energy.

Vision 2020, even with its lack of vision and detail is a scary document. If you want to learn more read it here https://www.mnsenaterepublicans.com/2020-vision/

Senator Gazelka: Prepare for End Times

Review by John King “Marketplace Ministers are part of how the Lord will reach the peoples of the earth in these last days.” Author Paul Gazelka wrote this astonishing sentence near the conclusion of his 2003 book, Marketplace Ministers , but it is a good place to start here because it so neatly encapsulates the message of the book which is that business people, by spreading the Gospel, are in a unique position to prepare us, for the end of the world.   Gazelka, an insurance salesman in Baxter, Minnesota, devotes chapters one through four to the story of his religious calling and how he came to adopt the “marketplace” as his personal ministry.  He goes to some length, relying in part on the “Fivefold Path” from Ephesians to convince the reader that the marketplace is a legitimate pulpit to spread the Word.  The remainder of the book, using personal anecdotes and biblical passages, he explains how a marketplace ministry would function and what its usefulness w...

Let us all walk in the foot steps of John Lewis

By John King In Selma, Alabama, on Sunday, March 7, 1965, John Lewis, standing in the lead of a long line of marchers, looked down from the crest of The Edmund Pettus Bridge at the line of police armed with clubs, whips and truncheons and said, “I am going to die here.” Lewis intended to lead the marchers from Selma to the capital Montgomery, to demand access to voting for Black people in Alabama. Sheriff Jim Clark lowered his gas mask and led the deputies, some on horseback and some on foot, into the line of marchers. Under swinging clubs and hooves trampling, Lewis was the first to go down. Women and children were not spared. Choking and blinded by tear gas, they were struck by clubs and truncheons wrapped with barbed wire. Lewis, with a fractured skull and a severe concussion, almost did die. The nearby Good Samaritan Hospital did not have enough beds to care for the injured marchers. A nation watched in horror as news footage of that bloody day appeared on T...
