A Most Important Question
This month’s newsletter comes with a warning: If you lean left of center, you will likely be upset. You should be. If you lean right of center, this newsletter will likely upset you as well. Welcome to the club.
As the Minnesota Legislative Session for 2024 moves toward its close, I will ask you the question that has been asked of me multiple times during the 2023-2024 Dem Trifecta Biennium. The question is this:
Can you really be a Christian and vote for a Democrat?
This may be the most important question to ask yourself this election year.
In the 12 years I have been privileged to serve as a pastor to our elected officials, their families and staff, never has the chasm been as great, nor the differences so blatant, as the 2023-2024 unethical, unconstitutional power grab by those on the left.
Using the maxim “by their fruits you will know them,” the current crop of legislators and the demands of the Democrat Party are visible proof that the Democrat Party is no longer run by true, classical Democrats. Today, there are two main groups directing the Democrat Party that Minnesotans must wake up to understand. They are led at the top by communists and are driven by the self-proclaimed “Queer Caucus,” a caucus of useful idiots (see Lenin 101), who will eventually be chewed up and spat out by their “friends” (see the 45 Goals of the Communist Party, especially goal #25).
The Party of Hate
Now, some of you are upset that I refer to them as the Democrat Party instead of the Democratic Party. In the words of the House Judiciary Committee, this is not an oversight. It is intentional. There is nothing democratic any longer about how this party operates. And, just to stir up memories of two members of the aforementioned House Judiciary Committee, it is “disgusting” and has nothing to do with “loving thy neighbor.” The Democrats have become the party of hate in America.
Understand the 3 D’s
If you vote in favor of any candidate with a “D” after his or her name on the ballot, please understand that you are voting for the 3 D’s of Death, Destruction and the Dismantling of America.
1. Death
If the Democrats have proven anything to Minnesotans, they have proven they are the purveyors and promoters of the Culture of Death. From passing abortion rights laws that put Minnesota on the same scale as North Korea by allowing abortion up to the time of birth and, if the abortion fails, the surviving baby is put on a shelf until it dies, and fighting to add Physician-Assisted Suicide under the euphemistic name of “End of Life Options,” Minnesota’s Democrat-led legislature has proven they are the Death Cult of Minnesota. Their motto regarding the dignity of human life has clearly become, “If you are not wanted, we will kill you.”
By the way, the Bible says, “Choose LIFE.” Jesus said, “I am THE WAY, THE TRUTH and THE LIFE.” He also said that He came to give LIFE and give it abundantly. The Declaration of Independence supports that Biblical perspective when it tells us that among the rights granted to every human being by God, the first is the RIGHT TO LIFE.
Don’t ever let anyone convince you the battle is between “Pro-Choice” and “Pro-Life.”
Everyone, and I mean everyone, is Pro-Choice.
You must decide whether to choose being Pro-Life or Pro-Death.
If you agree with Democrats, you have joined the Culture of Death. Instead, choose life.
2. Destruction
I read a medical article the other day. It was heartbreaking to read about the number of young girls who, because of Democrat policies, thought it was a good idea to have gender transition surgeries. It seems many of these young girls now recognize they were taken advantage of by ill-meaning politicians and so-called medical professionals. They are going back to the clinics where their gender transition surgeries were performed and begging for their body parts to be reattached. Can you imagine their pain?
What so-called “adults” in the legislature and medical communities have done to our children is criminal. They destroy our children and then they create laws to protect their insanity which result in destroying families.
Destroying human beings is exactly the game plan of satan.
The Democrats have bought his plan hook, line and sinker!
The family is the primary unit God ordained to perpetuate His image in the Earth. Destroying human beings is exactly the game plan of satan and the Democrats have bought his plan hook, line and sinker. These Democrats are either blinded by satan or possessed by him and his minions. See 2 Corinthians 4:4 for instance.
Either way, it is NOT gender-affirming to mutilate a child’s body and then create laws that prevent parents from protecting their children from evil legislators and medical hacks. BUT, if you vote for a Democrat this year, this is more of what you are supporting.
If you are waking up to this crime against our children and families, I recommend you go to CornerstoneStandard.com. Take a stand to protect kids and families.
3. The Dismantling of America
Some say Minnesota is becoming more and more like California. I beg to differ. Minnesota has much more in common with the former Soviet Union, the current Chinese Communists, and the infiltrating Islamic Republic. I’m not sure even California can measure up to those standards yet.
How Tim Walz was re-elected Governor of Minnesota in 2022 after letting Minneapolis burn and taking NO action whatsoever until we had legislators asking former President Trump for assistance is beyond me. Unfortunately, Tim Walz is not up for re-election this year. But his policies are.
Tim Walz did nothing while those who begged for some semblance of leadership were forced to look elsewhere. And what was his major talking point for re-election?
Abortion and abortion rights. He was the voice for the Culture of Death. See the first bullet point above.
And, what about our tax surplus of at least $17.5 BILLION? How much of what he promised would be returned to you actually came back to you?
Please don’t conjure up a number. No matter the amount, the reality is nothing was returned to you because Democrats made up for it by increasing other taxes and spending. Then, they raised the budget 40%!?!
Did your household income increase by 40%? By even 4%? How would you and your family operate if, after spending all of your financial reserves/surplus (assuming you had any), you then you increased your budget by 40% without the resources to cover it? Whose income could you steal in the name of “raising revenue”?
What is their plan?
Have you noticed the multi-unit housing going up around the state, especially in areas where there is not only no need for the number of units being built, but there are also no jobs for those being brought in? Why the push for high density housing even in our rural areas? Are things working so well in Minneapolis, Chicago, New York, and San Francisco that we should duplicate it in Rochester, Zimmerman, and Saint Michael-Albertville?
Have you also noticed that $550 MILLION (that’s $550,000,000.00) of business revenue has left the state in terms of productive business only to be replaced by an illegal migrant crisis who are given driver’s licenses, food, money and who-knows-what else? Who is paying for that? YOU ARE because the Democrats have a strategy. Their strategy means YOU LOSE.
If you really want to know what is going on, go online and download “An Explanatory Memorandum.” Ignore the first half (unless your read Arabic). The second half is in English telling us exactly what the strategic goal is.
Much of what the Democrats are doing, like the Minnesota Human Rights Act of 2023 which is still being battled with the fix-it bill of 2024, is in violation of both the state and federal constitutions. But, Democrats don’t care about the Constitution. They do not care about your rights. Several of us have been told to our faces that “Inclusivity trumps your 1st Amendment rights.” REALLY????
And, how is it that a Minnesota State Senator can be caught in the act of committing, allegedly, an illegal break-in and a burglary BUT she not only retains her seat as a state senator, she also gets to continue voting on bills because she was allowed to vote on whether or not she should still be permitted to vote at all. PLEASE re-read that sentence. The inmates are running the asylum! (See my Open Letter and Action Steps below.)
Need I go on?
The Democrat Party in Minnesota has become a powerful microcosm of what is happening in the Democrat Party nationwide. It is blatant Communism to its core. At the core of Communism is atheism. It is THE party of American-hating, freedom-denying, power-grabbing misfits whose well played-out mission is clear. Marx himself said he had two objectives. One was to dethrone God. The other was to destroy capitalism.
Democrats have drunk the proverbial Kool-Aid. They have become the party of Death, Destruction and the Dismantling of America. They have become the party that wants to own and control you.
Remember that the next time you are asked,
"Can a person really be a Christian and vote for a Democrat?”
Think twice or maybe three times before you answer.

An open letter to Senators Murphy and Johnson, Representatives Hortman and Demuth, and Members of the Senate Rules and Administration Subcommittee
on Ethical Conduct:
While the Democrat leaders and members in the Minnesota State Senate stall in how they wish to handle the Senator Mitchell burglary case, a review of the facts, as well as current law in Minnesota, seem to demand a common sense examination:
1. Senator Mitchell was caught in the act of taking property not belonging to her. Most Minnesotans call that "stealing." Why don't the Democrats acknowledge that?
2. Senator Mitchell was dressed in all black clothing, carrying a flashlight with a sock on it to dim the light as she climbed into the basement of a house that was not her own at 4:45 in the morning, allegedly to take property that did not belong to her. Minnesotans call that "breaking and entering with an intent to steal." Here is what the law says about that: https://www.criminaldefenselawyer.com/resources/burglary-and-home-invasions-minnesota.htm.
3. Senator Mitchell is entitled to the due process of law, as we would expect for any citizen, since she faces charges that could lead to time in prison according to the law referenced above.
4. Senator Mitchell is NOT entitled to keep her seat as a Minnesota State Senator. (See Functions and Powers, Paragraph 3, "Disorderly Behavior," https://www.sos.state.mn.us/about-minnesota/minnesota-government/the-minnesota-legislature. Of course, this would seem to be valid only if "breaking and entering with an intent to steal" is considered "disorderly behavior." If this act by Senator Murphy is not considered "disorderly behavior" then it begs the question, "What is considered disorderly behavior?" Of course, my 7 year-old grandson can describe that apparently better than a bunch of lawyers elected to public office who remain in a desperate fight to maintain power and control over the people of Minnesota who elected them to serve.
Therefore, while Senator Mitchell awaits her day in court to provide her defense for having been caught in the act of violating the Burglary and Home Invasions section of Minnesota law, there is absolutely no legitimate reason to allow her to keep her seat as a State Senator unless, of course, political power is more important that doing what is right. In fact, I do not think it is a stretch to believe that had this crime been committed by a Republican, that person would already be long gone, either by recognizing one's personal responsibility to resign or by the inevitable demands that would come from the Democrat side of the aisle.
Leaders, please help Senator Mitchell through this turbulent time in her life by doing the right thing. Demand she resign or remove her from office. She is much more in need of getting her personal life repaired and in order than she is trying to create law for others.
Respectfully,
Pastor Dale
-- Rev. Dale A. Witherington, Chief Steward Restore Minnesota 651.785.3647 Dale@RestoreMN.org www.RestoreMN.org
