Trump Administration leader of DOGE Elon Musk has directed his social media company, X Corp., to launch a new lawsuit against ANTIFA Keith Ellison’s AG office over an anti-free speech law that puts MN citizens in prison from creating or sharing political AI memes. This unconstitutional idea was put into law by Democrats and RINOs alike, notably led by unhinged Establishment state Rep. Walter Hudson (30A).

HF1370 was passed in 2023. This bill covered two topics on AI usage, one of which was largely uncontroversial law outlawing the use of deep fake technology for pornagraphic use. The other section attached to this bill was to send Minnesotans to prison for up to FIVE years and/or face a fine of up to $10,000 for creating or sharing AI memes that are intended to “injure a candidate” or “influence the result of an election”. A4L reported on this bill in 2023 and was the only major organization in the state that sounded the alarm. See section of bill below:

This bill started off as a Democrat bill led by radical leftist Zach Stephenson but Establishment puppet Walter Hudson crossed over and added his name as an author on March 9th. Instead of championing A4L’s Never Again Bill like Walter should've done as previous Chief House Author, he instead chose to pick a fight against free speech alongside Democrats. How egotistical and power-hungry are politicians if they cannot handle memes against them??

At one point, Democrats attempted to added more to the bill and Walter removed his name. However, Dems ultimately chose to pass the bill on its own and when that was decided, Walter was back on board!

During debate on this bill on the House floor on 3/30/23 (see video here), Hudson took time to praise Democrat Zach Stephenson for the “proactive” nature of this bill, even stating that this bill showed the “type of thinking that we have to be able to do and willing to do”. He also said that the implementation may be “a little sloppy” but says “That’s okay, we’ll figure it out.” Sounds like some big government, anti-freedom talk! It is clear that Walter’s attempts to calm down any Republican opposition was successful which now allows an out of control, Socialist, anti-freedom AG office to lock up MN citizens for memes.

This bill was passed UNANIMOUSLY by the RINOs and Democrats in the State House and only ONE state Senator had the guts to vote against it, Senator Nathan Wesenberg (SD10). The Uniparty was in action to limit free speech and pathetically protect themselves from memes! 

Elon Musk acquired X, then Twitter, with the goal of creating a free speech social media platform. Despite Hudson’s debilitating addiction to X (where he wastes hours each each), Walter Hudson clearly doesn’t align with the pro-First Amendment attitude of Musk! Along with AI memes leading to prison time, unhinged Walter has called for the MNGOP to purge grassroots A4L supporters from the party and fought to censor the grassroots opponent to Globalist RINO Tom Emmer at the CD6 convention (professional golf caddy Chris Corey).

A4L previously reported that RINO Rep. Mary Franson (12B) previously took on a lawsuit on this issue despite her voting in favor of the bill and her complete silence during the two floor debates on 3/30/23 and 5/16/23. While she has now seen the light, she should have never voted for this unconstitutional garbage in the first place! Interestingly, Ellison’s AI “expert” ended up using phony, pretend citations generated from AI in testimony to the court! The irony of the “expert” falling prey to AI’s dangers while writing to the court about AI dangers was not lost by U.S. District Court Judge Laura M. Provinzino.

Elon’s lawsuit will be much higher profile and could save our state from uniparty tyranny and attacks the law with the 1st and 4th Amendments of the US Bill of Rights. However, Keep in mind that A4L reporting exposed RINO Jim Nash (48A) for pushing to increase ANTIFA Keith’s AG budget right now in the State Govt. Finance and Policy bill (HF2783) by over $3M for this year! Jim Nash and other RINOs who support that bill will be giving Ellison more money to fight free speech and other frivolous cases like his recent anti-gun case that the Supreme Court refused to hear. 

Last year, Democrats added further provisions into this law including that a candidate would be disqualified for office if they broke this law.

Action 4 Liberty will continue to be the bulldog for freedom in our state and we will never concede an inch on our Constitutional, God-given Rights! A4L would much rather defend the free speech rights of MN citizens instead of defending the feelings of insecure tyrant politicians. The next time you see MN RINOs mask themselves with Elon and DOGE, remember that Elon has to spend money suing Keith Ellison thanks to them, especially unhinged Walter Hudson!
