From Facebook, Independent wannabee congressional candidate Bert Olson is on facebook complaining that he doesn’t seem to be getting a lot of love from South Dakota Democrats, who apparently are refusing to invest any assets into his campaign:
I will say though, at least last time he was in office, he seemed to have a sense of humor (Argus, May 4, 1993)..
..such as when as Deuel County State’s Attorney, he granted himself immunity for possession of illegal drugs. By writing it on the box of illegal drugs. (He resigned after his arrest).
We’ll have to stay tuned to see if this self-styled “South Dakota version of Bernie Sanders” gets any traction.
Most GOP supports Liz Cheney…..I don’t think so
Haven’t heard anything out of Bert in almost three decades. He even ran for Attorney General back in the 90’s.
Given the codewords Bert uses he is a Socialist/Marxist that call themselves Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) so they don’t scare the hell out of normal everyday Americans. If Bert were to run as a Socialist or under the Communist Party of USA which has an identical platform to the DSAs he would at least get volunteers though get absolutely crushed in South Dakota.
If Bert were to move to Minneapolis he would find plenty of comrades and they affectionally call themselves comrade at DSA party meetings. The Minneapolis City Council is 100% DSAs and they have publicly boasted that. St. Paul City Council and Mayor similar. DSAs being in office has not worked out very well for either of the Twin Cities.
I revoked that immunity on April 1, 1993.
Pretty serious crimes, marijuana seeds and residue. Should have been sentenced to life imprisonment. .
Small fine, court costs.
The only crime there was the brass pipe.
