I'm sorry, I didn't realize Israel had now escalated to the "quadruple tap" where they just keep killing and killing as people try desperately to help the wounded
Zach Lahn won Iowa's Republican governor primary as an outsider. But I've been digging around and found a long history managing campaigns, staffing politicians.
A look at his record. https://t.co/VpjlcusufC
Picking this totally random moment to point out that last year Iowa statehouse Republicans changed the threshold for recounts in statewide elections to a 0.15% margin.
RAJU: Do you think Bill Pulte has experience to be acting DNI?
THUNE: I'll defer to Chairman Cotton
COTTON: We have 4 more weeks with Director Gabbard as the DNI
RAJU: And Pulte?
COTTON: I have no observations on the matter
Libertarians are fielding candidates for Iowa governor (Nicholas Gluba), U.S. Senate (Thomas Laehn), #IA02 (Rick Stewart), and #IA03 (Marco Battaglia).
The summer is a time for young people to enjoy the city, have new experiences, get a job or simply rest. It’s not a time for violence.
I sat down with violence interrupters and young men directly impacted by gun violence to talk about what this administration is doing to keep New Yorkers safe.
Real public safety means investing in people before tragedy strikes: summer jobs, mental health support, community programs, safe streets, and trusted messengers who grew up in our neighborhoods.
Colorado's Republican front-runner for governor says he's rescued thousands of women and children, performed exorcisms, and carried out more than 130 rescue missions.
Then a reporter asked for evidence.
It didn't go well.

🚨BREAKING: Right-wing streamer Cam Higby was caught on video walking up to a group of protesters and pepper spraying multiple people, outside the Newark ICE Facility.
Then, as people reacted to being sprayed, an armed man pulled him away, telling him, “It’s not worth it… it’s time to go.”
Last time I checked… walking up to a group of people and spraying them with a chemical irritant is commonly charged as assault or battery.
And then, after spraying the crowd, the video show Higby, and the armed man, running into the ICE facility while agents allowed them inside.
Imagine the outrage if a left-wing activist walked up to a group of conservatives, pepper sprayed them, and then disappeared behind federal gates.
The headlines would never stop.
The law is supposed to apply equally to everyone.
In Gaza, all men of military age were deemed legitimate targets.
“And military age is really open to interpretation,” said Jonathan.
“It could be from 16 to 60 or even younger...Most of the people that my unit killed were not armed.”
Butler County, home of Sen. @ChuckGrassley, has seen SNAP enrollment fall by 19% since the passage of HR1 last June - more than any other county in Iowa.
SNAP enrollment in Butler County, Iowa is now at a 22-year low - the lowest since June 2004.
It's not because people are finding jobs, it's because they're getting kicked off the program, courtesy of Iowa's Senators who enthusiastically voted for HR1.
I do not support vulgar and nasty rhetoric in our politics.
But did I miss the "violent" part of this rhetoric? Calling someone an ugly fuck and telling them to shut up is "violent" now?
Is it the "MAGA" position that rude or even nasty words are violence now?
And we're going to ignore that Stephen Miller literally labels ALL members of the Democratic Party "terrorists?"
That's much more inflammatory & dangerous rhetoric than telling someone to shut up and calling them ugly.
