Year to year, knee to knee and back to knuckles, there’s a moral to this gobshite’s tale.

Kris Engelstad McGarry is at it again, holding a gun to the heads of North Dakota higher education leaders and, ipso facto, to the heads of North Dakota citizens.
This time the Engelstad family is threatening to quit giving money to the University of North Dakota until President Mark Kennedy is gone. McGarry refused to utter the word “fired,” but she didn’t need to.
McGarry: No Engelstad Money while Kennedy is at UND
