Highlands Bunker

In a twist on the normal formula, we have a full 70+ minute episode with Rep. Madinah Wilson-Anton as a bonus episode this week, and a quicker episode with the crew as our main episode. In this episode, Bill and Karl talk with Rob about the violence and occupation in Minneapolis over the last several weeks.

US Senate candidate and Chris Coons challenger Christopher Beardsley joins Rob in the bunker to talk about his own foreign policy experience, the importance of addressing our housing crisis, how to leverage the existing Democratic Party into a statewide primary victory.

As the legislature returns to session, we look forward to what we can expect them to accomplish this year, and then we look back to legislatures of years past to see what has changed and what hasn't. We look at an op-ed from an old-school News Journal editor and then a profile of Rep. Al O Plant, who was doing it like no one else was.
