This week on the Minnesota House floor, Democrats accused federal law enforcement of “insurrection” — and then tried to stop me from speaking when I challenged them.

You’ll see the moment for yourself.

While Republicans moved urgency on bipartisan anti-fraud legislation to create an independent Office of Inspector General, Democrats voted it down and instead pushed a political messaging bill attacking federal immigration enforcement.

When I pointed out the consequences of that rhetoric, Democrats erupted — shouting, interrupting, and declaring I would not be “allowed” to speak.

That’s not how democratic institutions work.

In this episode of Closing Argument, I break down what happened, why it matters, and what it reveals about the growing radicalism inside Minnesota’s governing majority.

Watch the full floor confrontation and decide for yourself.

Many still lend credence to unfounded conspiracy theories about the death of Minnesota Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband.

These theories make loose sense when you don't know the full context. But collapse under scrutiny.

Here, Minnesota state representative Walter Hudson corrects the record speaking to '2 Guys 1 Coup,' offering a detailed account of everything that was happening politically surrounding the tragedy.

Operation Metro Surge in Minneapolis has ended — and both sides are claiming victory.

Federal officials point to deportation targets removed and new cooperation from local authorities.

Minnesota Democrats say public resistance forced ICE to retreat.

So who’s right?

And more importantly: what lesson does this outcome teach activists, law enforcement, and elected officials across the country?

In this analysis, Minnesota State Representative Walter Hudson examines what really happened during the ICE surge operation, the claims from Tom Homan and the Trump administration, and the response from Governor Tim Walz, Attorney General Keith Ellison, and Secretary of State Steve Simon.

If coordinated obstruction of federal law enforcement leads to withdrawal without visible consequences, what precedent does that set?

Because authority ultimately rests not in statements — but in consequences.

And the end of Operation Metro Surge may carry implications far beyond Minnesota.
