Tim Walz and other state Democrats called on state Rep. John Thompson, a Democrat, to resign Saturday after past allegations of domestic abuse surfaced Friday, according to reports. In 2009, police responded to an incident where Thompson allegedly exposed himself in front of a woman and two children during an argument. "Mr. Thompson does deny the allegations," his attorney, Jordan Kushner, told FOX 9. Body camera footage of Thompson’s traffic stop earlier this month in which he claimed he was racially profiled was released by the St. Paul Police Department. "Simply put, the traffic stop was by the books," Axtell said in a Facebook post.
