The Republican candidate for Minnesota’s Senate seat, Michele Tafoya, gave the advice on “The Todd Starnes Show” Wednesday after the host asked Tafoya if she would discuss the “big issues on the minds of” her constituents. “We’ve all been told that the word affordability is key,” Tafoya said, adding that the U.S. had enjoyed gas prices that were at a five-year low, but now the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran is bringing gas prices up again. On the radio, NRSC-endorsed Michele Tafoya says that gas prices are spiking because of the Iran war that she supports and that people should “take one less trip to Starbuck’s” and to “just try to be patriots” about it.#mnsen pic.twitter.com/GOvkgZTqV7 — danny (@dabbs346) March 19, 2026
