Episode Details

Star Tribune columnist Eric Roper believes Minneapolis public schools are in a “doom loop.” What can be done to fix it? Plus, a friendly PSA about the No Kings Rally, whether you’re attending or not: it’s expected to be the biggest protest of its kind in the country, so travel accordingly. Finally, Sean sits down with Rep. Leigh Finke, the first openly trans woman elected to the state legislature. Finke talks about working alongside Republicans who don’t accept her identity, her relationship with her faith, and the current session’s political gridlock.
