By any honest reckoning, the American Midwest has long stood as the republic’s last great firewall of common sense — where decency is currency and a handshake still means something. But lately, the region’s governors have sounded less like the voice of the plowman and more like the echo of a faculty lounge panel at Oberlin. In Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Illinois, the executive mansions seem to have been annexed by ideology, not elected by people.
Let’s begin with Minnesota governor Tim Walz. His administration mandated tampons in boys’ bathrooms — a sentence that would have been flagged as satire only a few years ago. Here’s a state where winters kill you, and potholes breed like rabbits, yet we’re told the urgent moral crisis is menstrual equity for high school males. Does anyone really believe Tim from Two Harbors, who works 10-hour days and hunts on the weekend, is pounding the table for tampon dispensers in the boys’ gym? It’s a cartoonish abstraction — policy driven not by reality but by performative progressivism. Even George Orwell would have rolled his eyes.
And then there’s Wisconsin’s governor Tony Evers, who referred to a pregnant woman as an “inseminated person.” That isn’t a typo. That’s a full-frontal assault on language and humanity in one breathless phrase. It’s as if someone replaced the Midwestern political lexicon with the instruction manual for artificial cattle breeding. Evers’s comment would be laughable if it weren’t such a naked attempt to erase the distinction — and the dignity — of womanhood. The same logic that births “birthing persons” and “chest feeders” now gives us “insemination people,” and the silence from the sane is growing louder.
But wait — we’re not done yet. Let’s roll east.
