GOP Gubernatorial hopeful Hubbel attacks Sioux Falls first responders in building collapse because chief arrested.

Pat Powers

I don’t think Lora Hubbel’s propensity to vent on facebook did her any good last night.

In comments on facebook and under the KELO article on accused Sioux Falls Fire Chief who was arrested for possession of child pornography, Hubbel managed to somehow turn the arrest into accusing all of Sioux Falls Fire & Rescue of incompetence because – as she directly stated – “the downtown building collapse could have been better executed had he spent more time learning search and rescue technique rather then spending so much time on kiddie porn.”

Wow.

If you want to watch this cringe-worthy train wreck as it continues to roll out, you can do so here at KELOland.com.

  1. Lora please stop! Just stop! Enjoy the years you have left. Everything is a conspiracy with you. Those poor families that did not get Measles vaccinations because the anti-vaccination conspiracy people like you saw them as gullible and now they are paying the price.

      1. Tara if you were as good a friend as you say you are to Lora you would stop this trainwreck of Loras campaign instead of enabling her. Then again birds of a feather………….

        1. How so am I enabling her? I am for free speech. So she should just shut up and not question anything????? Wow! Be an obedient little citizen? I don’t think so.

          1. Tara for the sake of Mitchell which is a great town and has a long history of great public servants I hope you do not get elected. That clown of a mayor needs to be recalled and bring some class back to that office. One basic skill a Mayor must have is the ability to get along with others and sell a community to prospective business or parties interested in moving to Mitchell. Toomey lacks those. Besides we and I am sure many Mitchellites try to watch out when he drives his car so none of gets hit.

            1. Anonymous, Toomey did not get recalled.Apparently people aren’t to concerned.

    2. What about the young man that lost his life. Should everybody just shut their mouth?

  2. Talk about jumping the shark. At the end of the day, the trapped young woman was out from under the rubble within hours and sustained NO additional injuries during the rescue. Sometimes good results are the only measure, thanks be to God.

    1. Jon, what is wrong with questioning everything? People aren’t use to questioning authority. Tinfoil hat….I don’t think so.

      1. Tara, so.. question everything? Well, I’m questioning how on God’s green earth how Sideras doing what he did caused a shady contractor to cause Ethan’s death? Lora makes Annette Bosworth sound like a strong decision maker. That’s saying a lot. Every time Lora opens her mouth, she has less of a chance of winning.

        1. Jon, Sideras is the boss. The buck stops with him. That’s how the system works.

          1. Sideras was the boss of the rescue operation. The complete and fatal failure of the building, however, he had nothing to do with. I think you’re so in awe of Lora that you can’t see the forest for the trees. She has no chance, none what so ever.

  4. Pat, you’re almost her press secretary 😂 Create a funny page section to this news source, and relegate her stories appropriately

    1. Under a subsection Mixed Can of Nuts? It could be the comics of Dakota War College.

    3. Lee, you are an idiot. The young man that lost his life? Really? So Hubbel should not be allowed to use her first amendment rights and question authority?

    1. What an idiotic post; at least spell Jason’s name right: Ravnsborg.

      If you can’t come up with substance, I guess you come up stupid stuff, right Anonymous 11:35 a.m.? Go back to your mother’s basement.

            1. I’m glad you are able to judge everybody using “Anonymous” as a coward since you personally know each and every one of us, Tara. Thanks for being such a wise and all-knowing individual.

              1. Why is it so important for you to remain anonymous. Are you afraid to state your name? Not judging you just curious.

          2. Troy, ask Tara-you probably just don’t like people questioning politicians and are probably part of the establishment; so there!

  6. From her first tweet, does she mean that the collapse of the building could have been better executed such that nobody died? I didn’t think that anyone controlled the collapse and it happened on its own. My bad, I guess.

    Please, Ms. Hubbel, remove yourself from the public eye; you will never win anything, and the things you put out there are not constructive or beneficial to anyone. Do you like it when people jump to tremendous conclusions about you? I would think not. I say this as a conservative and a voter.

    1. So Anonymous, you don’t like candidates questioning politicians? You must be part of the establishment.

      1. She’s a bomb-thrower. She puts so much out there that is so foolish that she has no credibility. I’m not part of the establishment, but thanks for putting in your half-cent worth.

  7. Tara,

    Do you realize the young man who lost his life was gone when the building collapsed and before Fire & Rescue showed up?

    Lora’s does have a right to make wholly baseless charges and everyone else has the right to respond she is impugning all the people who saved the life of the young woman and she is an idiot.

    Further, people of integrity dont make false charges against the SFFD personnel. Period. Lora Hubble is a person of ill repute and earned her reputation by years of behavior just like this.

    1. Troy, you must just not like people questioning politicians, and you must just be part of the establishment, at least according to Tara Volesky, the all-knowing, all-wise poster of a higher wisdom.

    3. Troy, she is asking the tough questions that people are afraid to ask. Isn’t there a lawsuit pending?

      1. Yes, Tara. She asks questions that people are afraid to ask. They are afraid to ask them because they sound entirely, absolutely, and unequivocally stupid.

        When ever I hear that Hubble is “questioning authority” he questions always read like this:

        “If a young man lost his life in a building collapse and Benda was killed by the Russians, then why does 7 smell like purple?” Huh? Question authority!

        1. Clown Show Enthusiast,

          All of these questions

          “If a young man lost his life in a building collapse and Benda was killed by the Russians, then why does 7 smell like purple?” Huh? Question authority!”

          Will be investigated and sorted out under the Hubbel/Ravnsborg administration with Tara Volesky being Chief of staff.
          Press Secretary Lee Stranahan will have a full press conference at that time.

  8. From what I gather, Lora Hubbel will not be winning any election she runs for. Clearly her communication skills are lacking. I don’t know much about Hubbel or Volesky, but “idiot”, “wimps”, “cowards” is not appealing. Self-control ladies, self-control.

    1. KM, we will work on it, just for you, ok? But to be honest with you, I don’t think it is going to happen.

  9. KM, you have to defend yourself. Comments can get pretty rough. You need to fight like a girl.

  10. Tara,

    Before making definitive statements or defending definitive statements, one should know the facts.

    1) He died instantly.

    2) There is no lawsuit against SFFD being suggested by anyone.

    3. Troy – you are misinformed or lying – he was alive for about 4 hours. My daughter was downtown talking to the people there who were talking to him.

  12. Tara, I do not think it’s going to happen either. Standing up for yourself can be done respectfully. I suspect you will continue to “fight” like a girl instead of a women.

  13. so Pat….will you let me comment this time? It WILL get out what a coward you are to block me from your blog while bashings me with lies, half-truths and exaggerations. When will you grow up, develop a drop of courage and let me defend myself??

    1. Lora, you are welcome to comment, as long as you can manage to be on topic, and are not bearing false witness against your neighbor.

      As far as bashing you, it’s your Facebook post. Your words.

      I am permitted to have my reactions to your talking about sorcery, and how you’re posting an article about alcohol allowing demons into your body. I (and others) are allowed to find that unusual behavior from a candidate for Governor.

      Oops. That’s the new post. In this instance, we’re allowed to think your comments about first responders are out of line.

  14. So do you really think I am the author of all my posts? Thanks for the compliment but I only repost items i find interesting or rife for debate. AND of course you are permitted to troll all of my posts and comment (and again..thank you for you insane interest in me..) but when you lie and only tell half truths it would be man of you to let me defend myself.

    1. I never said you author the articles you promote. But it’s not often someone who says they’re running for governor discusses sorcery and spirit possession.

      Would those be department of health issues in your administration, or are you going to going to create a new cabinet level office for those?

          1. Looks like Anonymous has no answer…when they start calling you crazy it’s an admission of defeat….similar to the childlike response, “I’m not inviting you to my birthday party!”
