@tobihaslett Before revisiting this article I wrote for the @IowaInformer, even I had forgotten extent of the violent force and political power that had been leveraged against @DesMoinesBLM in the summer of 2020. It's worth reflecting on. https://t.co/YN6rgEgydH

Senators Brad Zaun and Jake Chapman are barnstorming central Iowa to accuse public school teachers of peddling porn in an effort to protect students from the scourge of thinking critically about the world. https://t.co/Y7DFk5SjXG

Private Discord messages leaked to media collective @UR_Ninja reveal plans by a member of the neo-Nazi splinter group Patriot Front to grow the movement in Des Moines. https://t.co/MYdz3jcBjD

[Oliver Weilein, Iowa City Councilor @Ollie_XVX]

Antifascists have assumed the number of Patriot Front affiliates in Iowa to be around 5-10, although now based on the leaked chats, it appears there is only one.

[Oliver Weilein, Iowa City Councilor @Ollie_XVX]

Patriot Front propaganda has been found in alleyways in Downtown Iowa City, there have also been two interstate banner drops on I80 and I380 by Iowa City and North Liberty in the past 2 years.

The @DMRegister leaves out some key details about the shady ethics of the former Muscatine County prosecutor in a glowing profile naming him one of 2022's "people to watch" in Iowa. https://t.co/qSS1sOvkTo

A new three-part Tiger King spin-off about Doc Antle featuring Ames resident Barbara Fisher just dropped on Netflix. She wrote about her reaction to his felony indictment 14 months ago here. https://t.co/wULGNanKih

It's clear that former @KimReynoldsIA and @TerryBranstad aide @MBousselot shares several of the conspiracy fringe's false beliefs himself, although you wouldn't know it from news coverage of the race. https://t.co/pj9kKOSuZ4

The pledge included this disclaimer, according to the Future Now group. The specific policy proposals were/are listed at the organization's sister site.

@IowaStandard @garonsen @AndreaJPhillips @MikeBforHouse @jimmy_peacock Here is additional context from the group. I would add that their websites do not make this especially clear (and also that I don't think there is even anything unreasonable about diverting police resources into community programs, even some cops support it).

[Iowa Informer @IowaInformer]

@IowaStandard @garonsen @AndreaJPhillips @MikeBforHouse I'm not sure, I'll look for it when I have a chance later (replying from here because @jimmy_peacock can't take a joke). "Speculative" would have been a better word than incorrect, about your article, should have acknowledged that you qualified it.
