Makenzie Huber reports on how Gov. Rhoden throws Legislative Research Council staff under the bus:
“Rest assured,” Rhoden told town hall attendees, “he’s going to be set straight on a few of his issues in a very kind, civil way.
But I will have conversations.” Senate President Pro Tempore Chris Karr, R-Sioux Falls, said during a legislative committee meeting Wednesday that it might be time to “get serious” about new regulations on agriculture to address the state’s polluted rivers and lakes.

Karr’s comments came after Legislative Research Council staff shared a report that over three-quarters of monitored river and stream miles in the state fail to fully support at least one of their intended uses — such as swimming, fishing or boating — with similar problems in many lakes. Rhoden, a rancher, said during his Thursday town hall at the Canopy by Hilton hotel in Sioux Falls that Karr’s comments were “misinformation,” saying they were “made out of ignorance.” [emphasis added]
Touchy, touchy!!
This is the same guy who's fine and dandy with letting 75,000 South Dakotans starve.=
