Episode #281 of @professorpennpodcast In this episode, Professor Penn reacts to clips of Congressman Eli Crane questioning Governor Tim Walz and State Senator Erin Quade criticizing Republican lawmakers over ICE operations in Minnesota, emphasizing the public’s responsibility to hold elected officials accountable. The discussion highlights Walter Hudson’s emergence as a leading voice within the state GOP, the planned March 1st rent strike, and what Professor views as contradictions in Minnesota’s approach to ICE enforcement.
