MN Chapter of Assoc. Builders v. Keith Ellison

Donald Trump's presidency has been a busy time for Democratic attorneys general across the country.  President Trump started his term with a flurry of executive orders. In response, many state attorneys general, often working together, filed their own barrage of federal lawsuits to put the brakes on what the president is trying to do.  In January, 22 states and the District of Columbia challenged an executive order to freeze federal funding. In February, attorneys general from three states, including Minnesota, sued to stop a presidential order that would have restricted health care for transgender youth. In April, a dozen states sued to halt many of the tariffs that President Trump imposed without approval from Congress.  And on Tuesday, California state officials continued to push back on President Trump's decision to deploy Marines and state National Guard troops to immigration protests in Los Angeles. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison about why he thinks President Trump is stepping over the legal limits of the constitution. New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin joins them later in the hour. Guests: Keith Ellison has served as Minnesota's attorney general since January 2019. Before that, he spent 12 years representing Minnesota's 5th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. Matthew Platkin was appointed as New Jersey's attorney general in 2022. He has also worked in private practice and served as chief counsel to New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy.

On May 25th 2020, Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin murdered George Floyd, an unarmed Black man, by kneeling on his neck for over nine minutes. The whole thing was caught on video and once it got out, it set America on fire. Protests spread across the country and then the world. Promises of sweeping changes to policing and greater commitment to racial justice and equity were made.Fast forward to now, five years later, and the outlook is very different. There are more Americans killed at the hands of police, DEI initiatives have been rolled back and President Donald Trump is taking actions to give police more power.We talk to Minnesota Attorney General, Keith Ellison, about calls to pardon Derek Chauvin, the current state of policing and racial justice and where America could be headed.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Mary welcomes back historian William Federer to talk about the unthinkable: the encroachment of Islam in America - in alarming ways. In 2006, Keith Ellison became the first Muslim elected to Congress. He swore his oath on the Qua'ran. Today in Texas, two Islamic lawmakers are leading the Pakistainification of the Lone Star State. How Islam is affecting our world here in 2025 is every bit as important as it was back in the 7th century. Cities like Pflugerville, Plano, and Sugarland Texas are finding out just how the idea that Islam is just another religion that should be tolerated is so dangerous. The flag of Islamic dominance is being planted in our nation and who is sounding the alarm? The cost of our silence, starting at the ballot box, is going up by the hour.  William Federer is a nationally known speaker, best-selling author, and president of Amerisearch, Inc., a publishing company dedicated to researching America's heritage.His AMERICAN MINUTE radio feature is broadcast daily across America and by the Internet.

Esme Murphy from WCCO Sunday morning was at Thursday night's event in North St. Paul and gave a recap of the gathering by Keith Ellison and friends to Vineeta on the WCCO Morning News.

www.commsolutionsmn.com- When Biden was president, the press used to complain that they didn't have any access to the leader of the free world. You'd think that they'd celebrate the openness and transparency of Trump's administration, where he and his various secretaries seem to live in front of the camera. Yet, all they do is lie, cheat, and complain. The recent clean, continuing resolution to fund the government has passed through congress and been signed by the President. Why was it so hard to get it done? Why were the Democrats so bent on shutting down the government? They have blamed the Republicans on every past threat of a shutdown, but were trying to blame this shutdown on the GOP as well... even though they were the ones pushing the bill to keep it open. The House of Representative (until now) has been 67 Republicans to 66 Democrats. The Republicans have submitted a number of bills to the House, and have had a majority, but due to MN law, they need 68 votes no matter what, which is more than a simple majority. The Democrats are beholden to their Queer Caucus. If it doesn't further the goals of this group, per Leigh Finke and Brion Curran, then the DFL is too scared to move forward. Despite its popularity, not one Dem voted to disallow men in women's sports. The DFL is the party of men dominating women. HF3 and HF23 are anti-fraud bills. One passed that allowed for greater audit capacity, which failed, and greater protection for whistleblowers, which passed. The bi-annual budget will be a big one to get passed. Who will blink first and give up something big to get the budget through the objections of the other party. It's not looking good for anything to get done this session and that's okay with us. Let us know what you think!

We begin the hour discussing Akeley, IA and the beloved sauerkraut days, Monday holidays, Joshua Tree and much, much more with Mark Freie for Overrated, Underrated and Properly Rated and then Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison joins to talk about a special event this week in Saint Paul and how he and his team are meeting the needs of Minnesotans while also addressing the effects of what is happening in Washington D.C.

Send us a textI'm excited to welcome back my friend and political activist, Darcy McKenzie. Over the years, as our friendship has grown, we've witnessed and reflected on some major milestone moments in history. Darcy lives near the very street corner where George Floyd lost his life, and her advocacy began on local school boards before expanding into key roles supporting both local and national Democratic candidates. She's a key player in the DFL (Democratic Farmer-Labor) Party, working to advance affirmative action, outreach, and inclusion at every level of government.In this episode, we dive into the political landscape, discussing Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz and the Kamala Harris campaign. Darcy has campaigned for an impressive range of candidates, including Muslim Attorney General Keith Ellison, Representative Ilhan Omar, Jewish Secretary of State Steve Simon, and LGBTQ Representative Angie Craig. She's also been a strong advocate for women leaders, supporting Senators Amy Klobuchar and Tina Smith, as well as Representatives Betty McCollum and Kelly Morrison. And while she champions diversity, she's also backed candidates like Governor Tim Walz, a "straight white guy," and now she's fully supporting Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan, a Native American leader, in her run for the U.S. Senate.Together, Darcy and I unpack the weaponization of DEI and CRT, and we share where we find hope and encouragement even in today's political climate. Let's get into it.SHOW NOTESSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show. Thank you!

This Day in Legal History: Harlan F. Stone Appears Before Senate Judiciary CommitteeOn January 28, 1925, Harlan Fiske Stone became the first U.S. Supreme Court nominee to testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee. This marked a significant turning point in the judicial confirmation process, as prior nominees were not required to appear in person. Stone, a former Attorney General and respected legal scholar, was nominated by President Calvin Coolidge to fill a vacancy on the Supreme Court. The decision to have him testify was unprecedented and came in response to concerns raised about his political independence and potential ties to Wall Street interests.  During his appearance, Stone assured the committee of his commitment to judicial impartiality and independence. He addressed questions about his legal philosophy, his past work, and the role of the judiciary in upholding the Constitution. His calm demeanor and straightforward responses helped to dispel doubts and earned him bipartisan support. The hearing was also held publicly, setting a new standard of transparency in the confirmation process.  Stone's testimony contributed to his swift confirmation as an Associate Justice by the Senate, where he served with distinction. Later, in 1941, he became the Chief Justice of the United States, further cementing his legacy as one of the nation's most respected jurists. This event set a precedent that has since become a critical part of the Supreme Court nomination process, allowing the Senate and the public to scrutinize nominees more thoroughly.  The decision to include nominee testimony is seen as a key development in ensuring accountability and public trust in the judiciary. Stone's appearance before the committee reflected a shift toward greater transparency in government, a principle that continues to shape the confirmation process today.A transgender inmate, identified as "Maria Moe," has filed a lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump's executive order mandating federal recognition of only two unchangeable biological sexes. The order requires transgender women to be housed in men's prisons and ends funding for gender-affirming medical care for incarcerated individuals. The lawsuit, filed in Boston federal court, argues that the order violates the Fifth Amendment's due process clause by discriminating based on sex and the Eighth Amendment's prohibition of cruel and unusual punishment. It also alleges a violation of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 by denying medically necessary care. Following the executive order, Moe was informed of her impending transfer from a women's prison to a men's facility, and her official prison records were altered to reflect a male designation. The lawsuit claims that such a transfer would expose Moe to heightened risks of violence and sexual assault. Additionally, Moe's access to hormone therapy, which she has used since adolescence to treat gender dysphoria, is at risk of being discontinued. Moe's legal team is seeking to block her transfer, maintain her medical treatment, and have the executive order declared unconstitutional. Both the U.S. Justice Department and Moe's attorney declined to comment.Transgender inmate sues over Trump's order curtailing LGBT rights | ReutersNovo Nordisk has agreed to cap insulin prices as part of a settlement with Minnesota's attorney general, who accused the company and two other major insulin manufacturers, Eli Lilly and Sanofi, of inflating insulin prices to unaffordable levels. Under the settlement, Novo Nordisk will limit out-of-pocket insulin costs to $35 per monthly prescription for cash-paying patients, regardless of insurance status, and will provide free insulin to low-income Minnesotans earning up to 400% of the federal poverty level (about $128,600 for a family of four). This agreement mirrors earlier settlements Minnesota reached with Eli Lilly and Sanofi in 2024. Together, the settlements are expected to cut insulin costs for patients by over 90%. While Novo Nordisk denied any wrongdoing, the settlement will remain in effect for five years pending court approval. Minnesota's attorney general, Keith Ellison, criticized insulin makers for prioritizing profits over patients' lives, accusing them of artificially inflating list prices while negotiating rebates with pharmacy benefit managers.

Minnesota's legal battle began in 2018 under Ellison's predecessor, Lori Swanson.Novo Nordisk to cap insulin prices in Minnesota settlement; joins Lilly, Sanofi | ReutersPresident Donald Trump's recent federal hiring freeze has disrupted career plans for thousands of law students seeking government jobs or internships. Federal agencies, including the Department of Justice (DOJ), the IRS, and the Environmental Protection Agency, have revoked permanent job offers to third-year law students accepted into prestigious honors programs. Additionally, hundreds of summer internships, both paid and volunteer, have been canceled, impacting over 2,000 positions in total. The DOJ, the largest legal employer among federal agencies, has rescinded job offers and canceled its summer programs, which typically place around 1,800 students annually. The hiring freeze has also led agencies to withdraw from law school recruiting events and remove job postings. Career services officials warn that these cancellations harm both federal agencies, which lose a critical pipeline of future talent, and students, who miss out on essential work experience often leading to full-time positions or judicial clerkships. Judicial clerkships, funded separately, are unaffected by the freeze. Law schools nationwide report significant disruptions, with many students left scrambling for alternative opportunities. Legal professionals and career advisors express concern over the long-term impact on government hiring and students' career trajectories. The White House has not commented on the issue.Trump's hiring freeze leaves thousands of law students out in the cold | Reuters This is a public episode.
