Politic Notes: Throwing tarantulas in Edina
The Republican candidate for County Commissioner here in my district in Edina is having quite a moment. A self-styled successful businesswoman-- she's a realtor who lost her license-she is all over the news here for an encounter with a woman who rented an AirBNB from her. There are some issues with that part, since Edina bars short-term rentals and the candidate didn't own the house.
It seems that the AirBNB renter complained of a spider infestation, which annoyed the candidate. So the candidate drove her out by throwing a tarantula at her while yelling about Jesus.
So... if you like this kind of thing, be sure to look up Royce White, the Minnesota Republican's candidate to face Amy Klobuchar for US Senate. They really are on a roll!
