Candidate for Lieutenant Governor – Lindell-Parrish Ticket
Fellow Minnesotans,
I’ve dedicated my life to truth — 21 years as a U.S. Navy Intelligence officer chasing terrorists and their financiers, years as a fraud whistleblower exposing schemes in Minnesota, and now as a farmer, father, and candidate fighting alongside Mike Lindell to dismantle the criminal networks looting our state. So I’m calling this out plainly, in my own voice: the current attacks on Mike Lindell are built on lies and deliberate half-truths, and they’re doing exactly what the syndicate wants — distracting good people while the real corruption continues.
The favorite lie right now is the so-called “1-year rule.” Some alleged Republicans and media voices are parroting that Mike doesn’t meet the residency requirement. This is false. Let’s set the record straight with the actual law.
Minnesota Constitution, Article V, Section 3 states: “The governor and lieutenant governor shall be elected for a term of four years. They shall be elected on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November in the year 1958 and every four years thereafter. They shall be elected by the qualified electors of the state. To be eligible for the office of governor or lieutenant governor a person must have attained the age of 25 years and, at the time of taking office, must have been a resident of Minnesota for one year.”
Key point: The one-year residency requirement applies at the time of taking office — after the general election, for the winner who assumes the governorship in January 2027. It does not apply to candidates running in the August primary. Mike Lindell has made Minnesota his full-time home again, owns property here, and clearly meets the requirement for the office he seeks. This isn’t ambiguous legalese — it’s plain constitutional text. Twisting it to attack a primary candidate is a deliberate manipulation meant to confuse voters and suppress the very reform movement Minnesota needs.
This tactic is textbook syndicate strategy. While activists, paid protesters, corporate media, and even some passionate but misled conservatives chase this distraction, the real criminals — DFL/DSA networks, nonprofit grifters, union racketeers, and their enablers — keep operating. President Trump’s recent declassified documents on election vulnerabilities and foreign interference (China’s massive voter data grabs and more) show how these networks thrive on confusion and suppressed truth. The same pattern plays out right here in Minnesota every day.
I’ve lived this fight: exposing fraud despite personal cost, fighting for families through tough times, and standing for farmers and veterans against exploitation. Mike Lindell brings the same unyielding commitment. The Lindell-Parrish ticket refuses to play their game. We’re exposing the full scope of the corruption, demanding audits and accountability, and offering a positive vision: a constitutional republic where faith, family, farms, and freedom come first — where producers thrive and the vulnerable are protected, not preyed upon.
To everyone being pulled into these manufactured controversies: Look at who benefits when we turn on reformers. The syndicate wins when we fight shadows instead of the machine. Step back, read the actual law, and join the fight that matters.
Christ is King. Minnesota belongs to its people, not the grifters. Let’s take it back in the primary and beyond.
