Turns out elections still matter, organizing still works, and Republicans don’t automatically get whatever they want just because they say so. Congrats to Democrats in Iowa for showing up and blocking a supermajority.
BREAKING:
Democrat Renee Hardman just won a special election for the Iowa State Senate, according to the AP — a result that prevents Republicans from reclaiming a supermajority in the chamber.

There is a stink emanating from the House of Reps created by the refusal of Johnson to swear in Rep-Elect Adelita Grijalva. Very reminiscent of the stench that rose from the Senate in 2016 when McConnell refused to hold a hearing re Obama’s nominee for Supreme Court.Someone please file a law suit.

This is the kind of excessive force case DOJ routinely prosecutes. They should open an investigation here, based on the misconduct not the victims status.

Here's an idea. Dem Governors & Mayors should be ordering their local law enforcement to arrest any & all unidentified and masked alleged ICE agents.
If a random guy in a mask grabbed someone and threw them in a vehicle, we'd call that a kidnapping.
Why not here?

Republicans tried to eliminate the CFPB. Senator Warren and Senate Democrats stopped that from happening.
It’s simple: Democrats are fighting to hold big companies accountable and return money to consumers. Republicans are fighting to give tax breaks to billionaires.
