A far-right Republican state lawmaker from North Dakota is lashing out at the University of Minnesota law school after the school reiterated that he was not a student there.

Rep. Brandon Prichard, who was elected in 2022, has made numerous comments and anecdotes about attending the University of Minnesota Law School. According to Fargo, North Dakota newspaper The Forum, Prichard recently commented about being a law student at the University of Minnesota at the end of the most recent legislative session while speaking against a wind energy bill. But when the law school posted to X (formerly Twitter) that Rep. Prichard was not enrolled there, he took to the airwaves to attack the school for having an alleged bias against Christians, and suggested he may sue the law school for unspecified reasons.

      Lying for Jesus is okay, as long as it’s to make proselytes. It’s a net positive, because you can just ask for forgiveness later.

    He’s also called for banning public universities from having same-sex homecoming royalty (after North Dakota State University crowned two homecoming kings), wants to ban pornography, and has even gone so far as to say that followers of non-Christian religions should have their right to worship curtailed.

    I want him to sue. These pathological liars need to be publicly shamed (only they feel no sha,e) and dragged in the dirt in the public square. I also want him to deplete his funds in a fight he can’t win.

    Rep. Prichard followed up these remarks by stating he has an uncle that works at Nintendo that can get everyone a holographic Charizard card if they will all simply stop saying mean things about him.
