While they’re needed, a lot of ya’ll stay on the debrief / strategize / talk it out train so long bc it keeps you within the dem bubble while mimicking forward momentum. It’s May 2026 - have you talked to a voter with support/turnout score under 90 this month?

@BlueCheese608 @joeyjguarino In 2018 Wisconsin dems swept the executive branch and had begun year round organizing under chair Martha Lanning. Ben was elected after that cycle.

Iowas economy is 49th and shrank 6.1% in Q1 - before tariffs.

In Iowa, Randy Feenstra just attacked health care for nearly 115,000 people and put food assistance for over 250,000 on the chopping block.

This will devastate Iowa’s farmers, small businesses, and rural hospitals.

A statement from IDP Chair Rita Hart on Iowa Republicans' final vote on Trump’s big, bad budget-busting bill:

[Senate Majority PAC @MajorityPAC]

“Well, we’re all going to die” is no longer hypothetical.

A bill that threatens food assistance for 8,000 veterans and rips away health care from 90,000 Iowans just passed the House.

@SenJoniErnst proudly voted for it. And now she owns the consequences.
