I am one of the handful of people in his class that he can no longer teach. No one else at @northerniowa is qualified like he is to teach this course. It saddens me to no end that politics are coming before my education. All of us in the class just want our professor back

[Clay Masters @Clay_Masters]

A biology professor at @northerniowa has been relieved of his in-person teaching duties for the rest of the semester and won’t be eligible for “merit pay” this year for mandating masks in his classes or lab grades are lowered. https://t.co/jpnxKJr05N @VanessaMiller12

Women in Iowa are going to lose our reproductive freedoms.
Family’s with trans members like mine are in real jeopardy.
So many election deniers re-elected.
A very dark day for Iowa today.

It’s been an honor to be your nominee. To every Iowan who believed in our campaign, thank you. I promise that I will never stop fighting for our public schools, the right to choose, and for every single Iowan. You are all #WorthTheWork.

Reynolds response to DeJear sharing about her mother's death was appaling.

[Andy Kopsa 🇨🇿🇺🇸 @andykopsa]

I wanted to say something good about Reynolds performance last night but I can't. I think her display, her eye rolls and general demeanor scream several things. But really - if she had just had those weekly pressers she may have been prepared to not look so incredibly bad

[Bleeding Heartland @LauraRBelin]

I understand the case for debate moderators not being too rigid.
But it's grossly unfair for @IowaPress to give @KimReynoldsIA (who already gets way more media exposure) 20% more speaking time in the only #IAGov debate this cycle.

[Deidre DeJear @DeidreDeJear]

I just stepped off the stage from the *one and only* debate Kim Reynolds agreed to.

She used the time to make clear that she's only fighting for her extremist, MAGA agenda – not Iowans’.

We can defeat her in just 22 days, can we get 6K RTs on this to build on our momentum?

[Deidre DeJear @DeidreDeJear]

This is what you need to know about Kim Reynolds:

1. She wants to ban abortion with no exceptions.
2. She wants to defund Iowa’s public schools.
3. She’s still proud to be endorsed by Trump after Jan. 6th

RT this if you think Reynolds has no business representing Iowa.

Seriously, FUCK YOU! So our babies weren’t worth it. Our kids meant nothing because they weren’t yours! Fuck you!!!!!!

If @IAGovernor wants to sue the Biden Administration to make loan borrowers “pay what they owe”, maybe she shouldn’t have been the poster child for corporate tax cuts this week…

Over half of Iowans support the right to choose.

Retweet if you’re one of them.

[brady 🖖🏻 @itstonypizza]

if i text you "🧙‍♀️" it means HER SISTER WAS A WITCH RIGHT? AND WHAT WAS HER SISTER? A PRINCESS, THE WICKED WITCH OF THE EAST BRO. YOU'RE GONNA LOOK AT ME AND YOU'RE GONNA TELL ME THAT I'M WRONG? AM I WRONG? SHE WORE A CROWN AND SHE CAME DOWN IN A BUBBLE, DOUG. GROW UP BRO, GROW UP

[Fifty Shades of Whey @davenewworld_2]

3,450 pounds of garbage were left behind on Lake Tahoe after 4th of July weekend, which is over twice the haul from the year before. "Patriotic" Americans leaving behind thousands of pounds of trash for environmentalists to clean up is a perfect metaphor for our country's future.

[Ashley the Ologist 🦉 @TheAngryOlogist]

Here’s a hot take: fuck fireworks. The “entertainment” they provide is not worth the fear they cause wildlife, pets, and people.

Today is the anniversary of the Stonewall riots, the reason Pride is in June.

In 1969, it was illegal to wear clothes that were considered inappropriate for one's sex and when the police raided the Stonewall Inn's gay bar, they started to do a genital check (as was procedure).
