Would help if you put your source article in: democrats.org/news/dnc-dcc...

Thank you for posting. This is the one bright spot in a sea of darkness. I am grateful to you (and I recently adopted as a result of seeing these).

Identifying Joni Ernst, green skirt, still a poor excuse for a US Senator, and Chuck Grassley, far right, who is an ancient relic and not a very good Senator either. Poor Dem representation in Iowa candidates lead to leadership like these two.

DNC/Dems should be helping us with HOW to reach out to non-Dems who regret their vote. The only way we transcend this, imho, is to bring everyone who opposes the current govt together, regardless of party. We need to get past the deadlock politics that seem to be in place since the 104 Congress.

Lastly, I thank you every day for standing up to this oppressive government even though I know you can't hear me verbally express it. I just wish there were an entire Congress of you.

Someone else has suggested morning press briefings about Democratic protests, propaganda the Trump administration is pushing to refute it, etc. The MAIN thing I see missing is visibility. You, Bernie Sanders, Tim Waltz and JB Pritzker are the only Dems that I regularly see active.

Additionally, create bills to restore programs and funds, and backlog committees if possible. I get many will not be considered by the Republican chairs. Next, identify candidates (I did see you had requested people run) in Republican districts and start contacting voters now.

My thoughts are work with District Attorneys to file lawsuits regarding the funds that were appropriated, but are no longer available. I believe this has been done. Someone else suggested town halls in Rep districts.

Iowa has republicans in control of the entire state. There are many good people in Iowa, just not the leadership.

This is an embarrassment for anyone who has directly served or who has had relatives serve(me) in the the third army, the foreign service. My respect goes to those who signed up, sacrifice and serve in good faith, not to this administration and its lackeys. I'm embarrassed to be an American.

Additionally, I have found MANY more valuable, interesting, good quality "vendors" by not shopping at Amazon, Walmart or BestBuy. That and buying local, and going to actual stores. Resist the Oligarchs; they're killing us.

Not one day here either; it's ongoing, investigating and doing "social investment" in who I do business with. I'd just love to see it as more than one day from the organizers here. :-)

The current govt seems hell bent on increasing child birth for white, healthy babies to draft into their military and their skewed/screwed vision of the world. What I don't get is why they're trying to kill kids with their propaganda that vaccines are bad. How are they making money/their vision?

This may have been said, but this ought to be for a week, or at least twice a month.

So very sorry for your loss. Our family members are so important. Here's to always remembering a faithful heart who obviously brought so much joy to your family.

Joni Ernst, the poorest excuse for a US Senator, in the photo as well.

Besides the companies discussed daily as ones to avoid, OpenSecrets.org has been helpful to me in understanding election donations as part of the decision as to whether or not I wish to do business with a particular company. Are there any tools that you use?
