With all due disrespect to your parting statement in that clip Norah, I'll bet ya dollars to donuts that you're wrong. Whatever they do "get done," won't be good for the city or its citizens.
Guess we get to test the theory that if women ran things, there'd be peace and calm and prosperity.
What's the over/under on the first big fight between the council members? We give it until Valentine's Day.
But isn't it interesting how the Left -- who insists they can't define what a woman is -- now knows exactly what a woman is when they can crow about St. Paul's city council.
Yeah, isn't that AMAZING ... Democrats know how to define "woman," again?!
TimOnPoint (@TimOnPoint) ~ Are they competent though? That is what matters, right?
Oh, our sweet summer child, competency doesn't matter. Checking boxes matters.
𝙼𝚁. 𝙻𝙴𝙰𝙳𝚂𝙻𝙸𝙽𝙶𝙴𝚁 (@Lead_Flinger) ~ I don’t think people there will learn their lesson even after it collapses.
That'll be blamed on sexism and the patriarchy. Or something.
Rivera for Schools (@rivera4schools) ~ Now that we know their color, sex, and age, can we discuss their qualifications?
No. Now don't ask questions.
matt dooley (@mdooley) ~ Shame their political representation is so monolithic. Hopefully they can achieve some diversity. The goal is to have a variety of voices, right?
But six women of color! That's all the diversity you need!
Freedom isn’t free (@RedFizo1) ~ So when rampant violence happens are they still going to blame inanimate objects or the elephants in the room?
The pachyderms in the room being THEM, right?
Oh, they'll blame the inanimate objects.
dbetzel_phd (@dbetzel) ~ The St. Paul Cisterhood.
We chuckled.
BigChubby6 (@Live_Free_orDie) ~ First order of business: St. Paul will now be named St. Karen.
The Great and Unmatched Tim Carney (@TimCarneySTL) ~ St. Paul next month.
Probably.
Jon (@JonnyMicro) ~ St. Paul is about to break up with Minneapolis, date Duluth then beg Minneapolis to get back together in a drunken late night text all while never at a single time choosing a place to eat.
Pretty much.
Hooch (@CompanyHooch) ~ St. Paul is about to outlaw curbs.
We laughed. Hard.
Bonchie (@bonchieredstate) ~ I guess a lack of diversity is good now.
It's (D)ifferent when they do it.
Ultra Grateful Calvin (@shoveitjack) ~ Huh. That doesn't seem very diverse, equitable, OR inclusive.
Weird.
If you live in St. Paul, now might be a great time to not do that anymore.
Might be a good time to look elsewhere.
We hear there's lots of room in rural New Hampshire.
But women are so much better at governing than men!
Controversial Gorilla (@Sunni_Labeouf) ~ I want a Hard Knocks style documentary about this. These should be mic’d up at all times, cameras following everywhere.
This is prime time viewing, for sure.
Dr. Ben Braddock (@GraduatedBen) ~ That’s not a city council, that’s a coven.
He said it, not us.
jimtreacher.substack.com (@jtLOL) ~ Can't wait for the follow-up story about how well it's going.
Neither can we.
We'll make the popcorn.
Carol Roth (@caroljsroth) ~ Godspeed, St. Paul, Godspeed ...
Godspeed, indeed.
Tim Hicks (@UnchartedFather) ~ Let's hope there isn't a spider.
Who will help them if there is?
Vincent Charles: Savant Bon Vivant/Wine Sifu (@YesThatVCharles) ~ The first time that their cycles all sync will mean the complete destruction of the city.
Highly likely.
Look, we hope things go smoothly. But when your criteria is someone's race and gender and not their qualifications or competency, things go off the rails. Quickly and severely. Take a gander at our Vice President, for example.
