Viral Harris-Walz camo hat injects Midwest glam into US campaign
If campaign hat sales are any predictor of electoral results, the Harris-Walz ticket is in great shape, as their camouflage cap with orange lettering goes viral. In part, the virality of the camo hat can be attributed to Chappell Roan, the wildly popular singer who sells a camo hat with orange lettering that reads "Midwest Princess."
AOC: Tim Walz’s Non-Weird Masculinity Is Driving Trump, Vance “Nuts”
Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told Stephen Colbert on Thursday that Minnesota Governor Tim Walz is driving Donald Trump and J.D. Vance “nuts.” “I think that Trump and Vance, they think they have some kind of like, monopoly over masculinity,” Ocasio-Cortez said on The Late Show. The Republican nominees have been freaking out ever since Walz first called them “weird” a few weeks ago, and have responded by desperately attacking the Minnesota governor’s son, wife, military history, and governing record. “Walz has kinda shown up—he’s a football coach, he was the head of the gay-straight alliance as the football coach,” Ocasio-Cortez...
Walz faces criticism for misleading IVF language
Republicans are jumping on Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) for making misleading statements about the infertility treatment he and his wife used, accusing the vice presidential nominee of lying for political expediency.

Otter Tennis Team Records 2 Wins at Moorhead Triangular
The Fergus Falls girls' tennis team traveled to Moorhead on Friday for a triangular which also included Morris. The Otters earned 6-1 victories against both squads. First up for the Otters was Moorhead. Moorhead is always a fun rival match-up for us. Our girls did a great job throughout the lineup of taking care of business, only dropping one match. We really outmatched them in doubles, dropping a total of five games in all three doubles matches. Our singles players did a nice job as well with three fairly routine wins, while Moorhead came away with the 4th singles victory. Our highlight match against Moorhead was at first singles where Ruby Ellison came up against Madison Anderson. Both girls are noted as top players in our section so we expected a good match up. Ruby did a great job of handling Madison's impressive serve and forehand and she showed grit out there, sticking in points and taking advantage of offensive opportunities when they arose. She played smart tennis and it paid off as she earned the first set 6-4. Ruby kept her foot on the accelerator in the second set, dropping just one game in a straight set victory. This was a big win for Ruby in that first singles slot and is hopefully a confidence boost for her moving forward. It's hard to look ahead to post-season in the second week of tennis, but this match was a big win for Ruby when it comes to seeding and post-season play.
