Clueless Michele Tafoya Points Fingers At Flanagan Over Trump’s Medicaid, SNAP Cuts

Give me a break, Michelle and drop out of the race
By John Amato — October 24, 2026

Republican Minnesota Senate candidate Michelle Tafoya is either stupid or lying when she blamed Lieut. Gov. Peggy Flanagan for allowing Medicaid and school meals to slip away from the state.

Peggy Flanagan and Tim Walz did not gut these vital programs. Your lord and savior, Demented Donald, did it.

Trump's Big Ugly fucking bill to help billionaires, Minnesota is losing $500 million annually from Medicaid, over $100 million in enhanced tax credits for MNsure enrollees, and $244 million annually in food support."

This means tens of thousands of Minnesotans’ access to health care and nutrition would be compromised because of this bill.

Talking to 'wrong way' Kudlow, Tafoya made believe waste, fraud, and abuse (Trump's excuse to destroy everything he can that aids the working class) is responsible for every problem facing America.

TAFOYA: And my opponent is sitting here saying she's worried about access to Medicaid and to school meals.

Give me a break.

You were not concerned about this at all when you allowed these programs to be gutted.

An LT Governor cannot control the federal government, no matter how much Tafoya wants it to.

Tafoya: "My opponent is sitting here saying she's worried about access to Medicaid and school meals -- give me a break!"
