This level of tone deafness is genuinely impressive. The Iowa House is literally arguing at this moment about dropping up to 182,000 Iowans off Medicaid and you're pining for oil donations. Killer-Meeks fighting for big money the same day literal lifelines may get cut.

Indivisible Warren County organized to demand representation and answers from #Miller-Meeks on what's keeping them up at night. She stands idly by as her #DOGE overlords gut social security services and impact programs like SHIP. How will seniors pay rent and feed themselves, Mary?

At least $12 *trillion* from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA.
Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.

They’ve called armed federal officers to the scene. We aren’t dangerous. We are here to represent our people. To defend public education. This is an authoritarian regime. You cannot block members of Congress from entering the Department of Education.
