OMG
Yesterday, a #Republican state lawmaker in #Minnesota named #JustinEichorn introduced a new bill he coauthored to legally define "Trump Derangement Syndrome" as a "mental illness" in the state.
Later in the day, he was arrested. For what, you ask?

Bloomington Police led #JustinEichorn 40, to believe he was talking to a 16-yr old girl & then met the senator & arrested him Monday…, acc/to a Bloomington PD press release.
…Eichorn was booked into the Bloomington PD jail & will be transported to the Hennepin County Adult Detention Center, the release said. #Felony charges of #SolicitingAMinor to practice #prostitution are pending, Bloomington police said.
“As a 40-year-old man, if you come … looking to have sex with someone’s child, you can expect that we are going to lock you up,” Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges said in the release. “I have always advocated stiffer penalties for these types of offenses … We need our state Legislature to take this case & this type of conduct more seriously.”
…In 2021 #JustinEichorn objected to a bill requiring #Minnesota schools to teach about sexual #orientation & #gender #identity, saying “before you know it, they’ll be reading kids ‘50 Shades of Grey.’ This discussion is better had at a more mature age.”
…Eichorn also co-authored a bill to classify “Trump Derangement Syndrome” as a mental illness.
Trump will just pardon him.
Probably.
