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.
