11-year-old Braham girl attacked twice by ‘bully’ getting off bus; mother blasts law passed under DFL trifecta

Did you know what you were voting on, or did you just vote yes because of feelgoodery?
While all the races in Minnesota got the headlines Tuesday, almost nobody noticed what Voters just passed with Amendment 1...
Back in 1858 Minnesota set up a Permanent School Trust Fund from 2.5M acres of mining and timber land...today it sits at $2.4 Billion
For 168 years the State Constitution kept the Principal "perpetual and inviolate"...meaning Politicians could ONLY spend the interest and dividends,(about 2.5% a year) and couldn't touch the nest egg
How did they sell Amendment 1 on the ballot? "More money for schools without raising taxes"...so of course 73% voted Yes
Here is what it ACTUALLY did:
- Stripped "perpetual and inviolate" right out of the Constitution
- Bumped the payout to 4.5% of the fund's value,(so in a down market it eats straight into the Principal)
- Put that 4.5% cap in regular Statute instead of the Constitution...and killed a 2/3 supermajority rule in committee 7-1
Oh and remember...Democrats just took total control of St. Paul right before a brutal 2027 budget deficit
So now a Simple Majority can crank that payout higher whenever they run short of cash...
168 years of guardrails gone overnight. The founders of this State are rolling in their graves...
