Nursing homes in Iowa owe taxpayers millions of dollars in fees while simultaneously donated thousands of dollars to the political campaigns of @IAGovernor, @jackwhitver, and Republican PACs. Coincidence? Not a chance. Corruption. Spot on. iowacapitaldispatch.com/2024/08/02/iow…

It’s worse than people realize. Gov Reynolds & Iowa statehouse Republicans policies are cruel. It’s not just abortion. They’ve gone after family planning, IVF, SNAP, WIC, pregnancy coverage, childcare assistance, unemployment, public schools and more. upi.com/Top_News/US/20…

The trump/Vance Project 2025 would allow trump to have a military that's loyal ONLY to him. It'd be great if the press investigated this, instead of chasing down unsourced rumors about the President. THIS SHOULD BE A MUCH BIGGER STORY.

When you've lost Fox News, @ChuckGrassley, @SenJoniErnst, @RepFeenstra, @RepAshleyHinson, @ZachNunn, and @RepMMM, and the entire world realizes Trump is the greatest threat to world peace. Your continued support of him puts every American in danger. Trump should step down.

A timely reminder to all #Twitterstorians. In the short or long run … HISTORIANS ALWAYS WIN. We name the names. We write the wrongs. We break the silences. We expose pasts that are never dead, not even past. And we always win. Always. #SCOTUS #Election2024 #HistoriansAlwaysWin

The Republican Project 2025 is a nightmare for our democracy. Familiarize yourself with the other sponsors of this bullshit attack. Not surprisingly, ALEC and the Heritage Foundation are pushing to dismantle the government and install a dictator. heritage.org/press/project-…

As large financial companies in Des Moines struggle to recruit and hire talented and educated employees, @IAGovernor and the @IowaGOP make that recruitment more difficult. Backward, hateful, oppressive, discriminatory, laws won't attract people to Iowa. desmoinesregister.com/story/money/bu…
