Democrat in Iowa, there's a bunch of goons running the state here! A grandma that wants good future for family. Loves 60's -80's music. Loves to quilt, play piano, sing, and into spiritual growth. So far, still looking forward to retirement.

Chuck Grassley Complicit in Sending Dozens of Innocent Men to a Concentration Camp - emptywheel
Chuck Grassley is protecting a guy, Emil Bove, who gave an order to unload dozens of innocent men into a concentration camp. Worse, he is cheating to promote him to a lifetime appointment.

What a disgrace to our state and country. it's obvious that the GOP doesn't care one bit about us 'Low Lifes'. Make women have babies, but don't give a hoot whether or not they are healthy. What a crock.

Yes. People Will Die.
Joni Ernst’s cringey videos were wrong. They also reveal a lot about the GOP’s desperately dishonest sales job.

#Iowa has a Democratic Candidate for Attorney General. I don't see a BlueSky account, but I have encouraged his campaign to create one.

I kind of don't want to pay my federal (feral) taxes tomorrow. Mostly because I think my $'s won't be used wisely, this year is WAY worse than previous years.

We need to massively flip Congress in 2026 so that not only do Dems control the House & Senate, but we also have enough of a majority to impeach and remove Trump.

To do this, we need record numbers of Democrats volunteering and donating. #DemocracyIsNotASpectatorSport

The Constitution is clear. Decisions over where and how our tax dollars are spent must be made by our elected representatives through a democratically accountable process. Not by decree of an unelected billionaire.

So now Iowa turns a cold shoulder to the homeless here. I hate to ask just how heartless our lawmakers in Des Moines can be, because I'm afraid they will show us.
