You know it’s nasty outside when your car’s display for its rear-view camera is partially obscured by icicles. The polar vortex is upon us in the Twin Cities, with a brutal-looking forecast. Right now, it’s -15°F (-26°C) with a “feels like” windchill of -33°F (-36°F). And I moved to Minnesota of my own free will? Gotta find a way to convince my son and stepkids to move somewhere a bit warmer so that one day my wife and I can play outside with potential grandchildren without risking frostbite.

Michael Flynn Pushes QAnon and Stolen Election Lies
He was one of the most extreme voices in Mr. Trump’s 77-day push to overturn the election, a campaign that will be under scrutiny as the former president’s second impeachment trial gets underway next week. Mr. Flynn went so far as to suggest using the military to rerun the vote in crucial battleground states.
