Powerline 6/2/2025
The Minnesota Legislature’s 2025 session came to an end a couple of weeks ago, and this was a budget year. But we still don’t have a budget. The big sticking point? Democratic and Republican leaders agreed on a framework for a budget deal, and one of its terms was that Minnesota would no longer provide unlimited free health care to illegal alien adults. That proved so controversial that it may blow up the agreement.
We covered here the bizarre scene in Minnesota’s Capitol when the budget framework was being announced in a joint press conference, and dissident Democratic House and Senate members tried to break into the room. Failing to do so, they settled for chanting and demonstrating in favor of unlimited free health care for all illegals in the corridor outside.
This, of course, is the same dynamic we see across the country–the far-left activist wing of the Democratic Party pitted against the supposedly moderate majority of that party. But are the far leftists actually a minority of Democrats? I doubt it.
