Sage took heat when his campaign launched for policy language about immigration on his website. That was so long ago in terms of events, he can tell a very neat story about changing his mind on ICE and so-called “border security”. Brutalizing people doesn’t make us safe! #IASen
ICE shot and killed a US citizen today. A full investigation into the incident should be launched immediately. It's time to take the masks off and hold ICE accountable to the atrocities they're committing on behalf of this administration.

This shit is ridiculous. There are like 16 distinct layers of violent rhetoric factories that all start with the President, who is signing off on the policies that are torturing and killing people!
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

Asking every newcomer running for a “safe” seat as an @iowahousedems.bsky.social candidate if they are a socialist. No reason to support any candidate but socialists in these races.

As @robsandia.bsky.social points out, there are no safeguards in Iowa’s voucher law to make sure the money doesn’t pass straight through the private school system into a Hawaiian vacation for someone manipulating the system. Exact same third party provider set up as the allegedly fraudulent daycares

Seriously though imagining her browbeating some 24 year old ICE goon into cutting off the ankle monitor is both totally believable and as funny as you can get in the circumstances
