The Minnesota House is a serious legislative institution

This is real. This is happening RIGHT NOW.

This is a debate on sending an omnibus state energy bill back to committee

I'm pretty sure Rep. Raleigh just laid out how he'd assassinate a head of state on the House floor

There's going to be a government shutdown because the MN House GOP thinks the house floor is the History Channel. For the record this is a debate on an agriculture and broadband bill

if nothing else this filibuster is truly confirming that the MN House GOP's entire worldview is built around repeated re-readings of the Bill O'Reilly "Killing ______" series of books

mn gop now literally discussing the merits of putting cows on the blockchain

sir this is a wendy's

honestly what is there to even say anymore

just really getting into the big questions here

The last forty minutes of House floor time have been dedicated to discussion of the Wolf Menace, which is "out of control"

Most legislators have ideas that drive them to public service, ideas that they truly believe in. For some, it's health care. For others, it's education.

For Dale Lueck (R-Aitkin), it is defeating wolves
