    Murder in Minneapolis: A Line Crossed | A Conservative Conversation

    In this episode, Mark and Elmer keep you up to date with the political turmoil we are facing every day in this country. Most recently, the unjust murder of an innocent woman in Minneapolis, and this “Greenland and Denmark Strategy.” We hoped that uprooting our history with a ridiculous ballroom renovation was where it ended, but now, where we once had the Monroe Doctrine, we get to associate forever with this Don Roe delusion. Is all hell breaking loose? Can we return to civility? Stay tuned.
