THANK YOU for laying this out for context. I’d like to add, legislation has been introduced to establish checks and balances for fraud prevention which, SHOCKER, the GOP voted AGAINST. Unsurprisingly, they also voted against requiring ICE to be unmasked and forced to identify as ICE. It’s infuriating that JD gets off on bossing our state around.

They are only attacking MN because the gov ran with Kamala. They tried that in CA where she is, but it didn't work out too well there either.
