In Chicago, Democrats are gathering to celebrate the coronation of the woman who was installed through an illegal coup using blackmail to oust Joe Biden from running again. But he's still running the country, don't worry. He's been ousted from running for election, but he's still in charge of everything. It's not Nancy Pelosi or Barack Hussein Obama or Susan Rice or any of those people. In a post-coup America, the fakery is breathtaking.What does God's Word say? Proverbs 29:2 NIV  When the righteous increase, the people rejoice, but when the wicked rule, the people groan.Jeremiah 23:1-4 NIV “Woe to the shepherds who destroy and scatter the sheep of my pasture!” declares the Lord. Therefore thus says the Lord, the God of Israel, concerning the shepherds who care for my people: “You have scattered my flock and have driven them away, and you have not attended to them. Behold, I will attend to you for your evil deeds, declares the Lord. Then I will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them, and I will bring them back to their fold, and they shall be fruitful and multiply. I will set shepherds over them who will care for them, and they shall fear no more, nor be dismayed, neither shall any be missing, declares the Lord.Episode Links:Biden committed ‘impeachable conduct,' ‘defrauded United States to enrich his family': House GOP report; House Oversight, Judiciary, Ways and Means committees have led impeachment inquiry against BidenDemocrats Broke the Law by Pushing Joe Biden Out of the Race; If we apply Special Counsel Jack Smith's interpretation of the "conspiracy against rights" statue included in the DOJ's J6 indictment of Donald Trump, Biden and the Democrats have committed a crime.CNN Losses Another Motion in Defamation Case as Court Orders Tapper to AppearReport: FBI Cleaned Up Biological Evidence from Trump Rally Crime Scene in 1 Day – Something Unheard Of; The whole situation just got more suspicious.NEW: Recently discovered video from Jan 6 shows an individual believed to be police carrying a bag toward the location where "pipe bomb" was found at DNC.

Six people are presumed dead after the bridge collapse in Baltimore and there is now an effort to recover their bodies. All six are believed to have been construction workers on the bridge at the time of its collapse in the wee hours of yesterday morning. As recovery efforts continue, leaders in Baltimore and Washington, D.C. are talking about how quickly the bridge can be rebuilt. U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg spoke with CNN Wednesday morning about the response and how lessons can be learned from the 35-W tragedy in Minneapolis. “I've never seen anything quite like this, but there have been experiences in the U.S. that we are drawing from, including the 2007 Minnesota bridge collapse, where really the federal government, the whole country stepped up to get that reconstructed,” Buttigieg said. “We're learning from that and a lot of other moments in U.S. history as part of the playbook on what to do next.”MPR News host Cathy Wurzer spoke with former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who helped the Twin Cities navigate that time, including the rebuilding efforts.

Forty years ago, two women met on a basketball court and became close friends.  Those women were Ann Bancroft and Jan Malcolm. That was long before Malcolm went on to serve as Minnesota Health Commissioner under three Minnesota governors and guide the state through the COVID-19 pandemic. It was also before Bancroft became the first woman to reach the North Pole by foot with dog sled and inspire people around the world through her polar expeditions. Over the years, Malcolm and Bancroft have supported each other through intense challenges, weathered personal loss and encouraged each other to follow their dreams. Listen back to a conversation MPR News host Angela Davis had with Ann Bancroft and Jan Malcolm as part of her Power Pairs series.Guests:   Ann Bancroft is an adventurer, author and teacher. She was the first woman to reach the North Pole on foot with dog sleds with a group in 1986. She was also the first woman, with Norwegian adventurer Liv Arnesen, to ski across Antarctica.  She's completed a number of other expeditions to the Arctic and Antarctic, inspiring school children and drawing attention to global warming. She's also the founder of the Ann Bancroft Foundation.    Jan Malcolm retired as Minnesota's health commissioner at the end of 2022, after serving under Governor Tim Walz and guiding the state's response to the COVID-19 pandemic. She was appointed as commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Health in 2018 by Gov. Mark Dayton and also served in the role under Gov. Jesse Ventura. She was also vice president at Allina Health and CEO of Courage Center and was the chief architect of the state's safety net insurance program MinnesotaCare while working at HealthPartners in the early 1990s.     Do you know a ‘Power Pair?'Know two Minnesotans who have a close relationship and lean on each other for support in the work they do? Maybe they're married or siblings or best friends. They could be business partners or a parent/adult child dynamic duo. We want to hear their stories on MPR News with Angela Davis at 9 a.m. weekdays.Read more about our Power Pair series and submit your ideas here.
