OK Minneapolis peeps let me ask a question. Did the school district at some point start asking people who were pulling their kids out of the district, why they were doing this? I mean, the last time I checked the answer was NO, but it's possible this…

Back in 2014, the MN GOP endorsed judicial candidate Michelle MacDonald, only to belatedly find out she had a recent DUI.

If you live in Minnesota's 10th Judicial District (Anoka, Chisago, Isanti, Kanabec, Pine, Sherburne, Washington or Wright county), DEFINITELY flip your ballot over and vote for the incumbent judge, Helen Brosnahan.

Why does Elon want to convince us that this nightmare creation should be left alone with our kids or pets when the real selling point here would be "imagine never having to fold laundry or scrub burned crap off a pot again."
