This made me smile

A gathering of local Minnesota Republican Party officials went off the rails this week after a self-described "witch" trolled their meeting by placing a "curse" on them — and the Republicans in attendance appeared to take it at least somewhat seriously.

A gathering of local Minnesota Republican Party officials went off the rails this week after a self-described "witch" trolled their meeting by placing a "curse" on them — and the Republicans in attendance appeared to take it at least somewhat seriously.

According to Minnesota Public Radio, "Seated around the Dilworth Elementary School Cafeteria, attendees listened as a volunteer read the results of the straw poll for the gubernatorial candidates. Kendall Qualls led with 30 votes, the speaker announced, with Mike Lindell trailing by 23 votes. As soon as Lindell’s vote tally was read, a cackle began to emerge from the far side of the room."

The individual, "wearing a green cape with a cross dangling from a chain around their neck and carrying a red cane," was escorted out of the premises, as he shouted that those in attendance are responsible for the federal agent-involved fatal shootings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti with their votes to put President Donald Trump in power.

“I’m a witch,” said the person on the way out. “I hex all of you!”

After these words, said the report, "the crowd stirred," and "a man in the crowd called on the group to take a minute to pray." He said, “We cancel that curse, that hex, in Jesus’s name.”

The crowd proclaimed "Amen," and gave their blessings in the hope that the "witch" would change their ways.
