 When Minnesota’s Republican Senate Caucus hired Michael Brodkorb as their communications director, they may not have expected it would end witha lawsuitand multiple retirements. Yet while those specific results may have been unpredictable, a person of reasonable judgment could have figured that it would not end well. Even so, it is fortunate that then-Majority Leader Amy Koch was not exercising reasonable judgment when Brodkorb was hired. The incident has been good for the GOP and for democracy. |

It was a long and unwieldly complaintrelating back to the omnibus education bill passed by the legislature. |
