On Monday, the Minnesota Republican Party vowed to pursue recall efforts against Democrat lawmakers threatening to boycott the start of the legislative session to prevent Republicans from using their expected temporary majority.
According to a report by Fox News, Republicans currently hold a 67-66 seat majority in the Minnesota House and could use that majority to set legislative rules for the next two years when the session begins on Tuesday. Democrats have threatened to boycott the first two weeks of the session to prevent Republicans from taking advantage of this temporary majority.
“Minnesotans expect one thing from their elected officials: to show up and do the job they were sent here to do. That’s a basic duty, not a special request,” Minnesota GOP Chairman Alex Plechash said at a press conference at the state capitol.
Republican state Rep. Pam Altendorf argued Democrats are only facing a disadvantage “because of cheating” and are “acting like sore losers and not coming to work.”
The dispute centers around the legislative rules that govern how the Minnesota House operates, which are established at the start of each new session. These rules significantly impact the legislative process, influencing how bills are introduced, debated, and voted upon, potentially shaping the state’s policy direction on critical issues for the next two years.

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
