by Rep John Thompson (DFL – St Paul) will be featured on an episode of tv’s hit series, Shark Tank. The freshman legislator has taken his passion for setting things on fire and developed a child’s play kit to teach youth the valuable skills of setting things ablaze.
Thompson made national news last summer for peacefully assembling in a quiet neighborhood in Hugo while stating his intentions to burn down that city. Now he’s happy to share with the world his talent of fire starting.
This is the third Minnesota legislator to be featured on a reality tv show. Kurt Daudt starred in the Netflix series, RINO King. And Mary Franson (R – Alexandria) lost to Carole Baskin in ABC’s Dancing with the Stars last season.
