Minnesota Republican state Senate candidate Andrea Zupancich served up some EPIC word salads during this debate. Try to make sense of what's she's saying if you dare.

WATCH: Republicans just abruptly ended their own press conference on “keeping kids safe in schools” after being asked if they were going to address guns. Families and survivors of school shootings are calling on us to do something about guns, and Republicans are just... ignoring them??

??? GOP Rep. Mary Franson says she's not worried about climate change because it's not in the Bible: "If you've read the Good Book, you know how it ends, and it's not with climate change." How can we expect Republicans to do serious work when they're so proud about ignoring science?

The "residential protesting" bill is being sold as a response to protesters targeting the homes of specific people, despite its very broad language. But I had fun watching DFL reps gently poke at Walter Hudson for half an hour until he admitted his problem is with protesting in general.

I see so many people bringing customer service mindset to political organizations. These things are hard and imperfectly done. Your donations and time are the only things that can fix it. No amount of "Do better" is going to change the constraints.

Maybe I’m late to this but please enjoy the DFL’s response to Messy Jen Carnahan’s latest acting out. Would that the national party was as pitch-perfect.
From the Minnesota DFL Party: DFL Releases, Responds to Jennifer Carnahan's Lawsuit Threat
ST PAUL - Late yesterday, an attorney for disgraced former Minnesota GOP Chair Jennifer Carnahan sent the Minnesota DFL a letter on Carnahan's behalf threatening to sue the DFL unless the DFL retracts and publicly apologizes for highlighting her ties to child sex trafficker and GOP mega-donor Anton Lazzaro. Today, the DFL is releasing its public response to Carnahan's ridiculous threat:
Jen, You co-hosted a podcast with a child-sex trafficker, socialized with him, and raised huge sums of money from him to support Minnesota Republican candidates. If you follow through on this absurd lawsuit, it will end as one more addition to your long list of failures.
Best of luck on the campaign trail,
Heidi Kraus Kaplan

Last week the GOP heard one of their bills to “combat” fraud, waste and abuse. Which is their message of the session. Listen to @repkimhicks.bsky.social point out just one flaw in this bill. Please don’t just listen to GOP messaging, also look at how they govern what they run on (not well).
