Politician throws live tarantula at her tenant (survivalism)

[C C]

Wow. Really makes you wonder about the personal lives of other renters who are candidates and attorneys who are squatters. Forget the issue of being grifters... How many of them are just outright a bucket full of fasteners that came loose from the hay wagon?

Holy crap!! This woman looks to me like the landlord from hell. (Who wasn't even the property owner and was a renter herself (illegally?) subrenting space to this other woman.)

She's running as an independent for US Senate in the 2026 election. (And has about 0% chance of winning.)

But she did get 31.6% (26,602 votes) and came in second in the 2024 election for District six Hennepin County commissioner. Hennepin county is Minnesota's most populous county and includes Minneapolis.

I guess it's exhibit #4768 in why Minnesota politics is so crazy and toxic. This lady needs to seek help in one of Minnesota's learing centers.

There's a reason someone coined the phrase "feeling Minnesota."

So she really is Catholic. That wasn't just part of the "Home Alone" parody revenge that she was trying to brush everything off as. Have rarely, if ever, seen a Catholic take up a holy roller bent like that (one usually thinks of backwoods Protestants). Police put her up for psych evalution, too. Definitely seems to need meds, but if nobody has put her on them so far, then not likely to have happened after the incident. Not sure how she makes it in real estate, should she be that unhinged around clients.

The "tenant" seemed a little overly sheltered for an attorney, but I guess her jumpy nervousness and sensibilities were understandable when being harassed by a nut of that degree.

Pretty girl privilege.
