This is a public service announcement for my fellow Iowans: there is an election coming up June 4– it’s mostly local supervisor positions so a lot of people skip it, but If you do not vote, you will be purged from the voting rolls.

@RepMMM As your constituent, I am asking that you oppose this supposedly Big Beautiful Bill–it WILL NOT help grow our economy. It will destroy Medicaid–destabilizing our healthcare system leaving millions uninsured, cut SNAP benefits thereby starving people, and add to the federal debt.

Navajo Marine Ira Hayes helped raise the American flag over Iwo Jima in WW2.

Today Trump had him removed from military websites because his bravery in action is considered “DEI.”

Trump never served. Ira Hayes was a hero. Agree?

This is FUCKING INSANE

Trump's ICE goons detained a Canadian actress because of confusion over a work visa for TWO WEEKS - shackled, thrown in a van, sent to AZ, kept awake, not allowed to contact a lawyer

People don't seem to grasp that 3° of global warming doesn't mean everything will be 3° warmer.

It means that the extreme peaks will be 10-15° warmer.

Daniel Radcliffe and Rupert Grint are fathers, Emma Watson is doing a Masters at Oxford, Dan won a Tony last year, Rupert did a critically acclaimed Apple TV series, Emma started a business with her brother…meanwhile you’re a weird lady obsessed with people’s genitals, Joanne.

Healthy teeth & gums benefit our physical health, comfort with socialising & general well-being.

Yet #OralHealth care is often expensive, putting a large financial strain on families. That’s why it’s important to make it a key part of primary health care.

The Dept. of Education is only 4% of the US budget & helps students from low income families & those with disabilities - especially in red states

Trump can't destroy the Department of Education, but it's telling that he & Republicans want to

[sean kitchen @pennslinger]

Sue Gordon spoke about her son getting fired from the department of education.

You can feel the anger at this Scott Perry town hall.

People are absolutely pissed off

He’s calling people who receive any kind of federal assistance “parasites” while profiting heavily from every single government benefit he can get. The only parasite I see is Elon Musk. I’m so tired and disgusted.

I'm back hosting Shut Up and Write this afternoon at the Fairfield Public Library, 3:30 to 4:45 pm, after being sick last week. I forgot my phone, so I can't post my usual library pictures to entice you, but come by the conference room and write with us!

This woman worked for UnitedHealthcare in the claims department, she was taught “thousands” of ways to deny people

“I'm here to talk about one specific claim”

- A widowed woman would call 3x a day because UnitedHealthcare was taking her to court
- Her husband had just passed from pancreatic cancer, and this was a hospice claim
- They were already garnishing her wages, and this was less than 60 days after he died

By the way, she was left with 5 boys by herself, she was a stay at home mom her whole life. She was just trying to figure out life

There was absolutely no reason why we couldn't just submit this claim and be done, but they told me every which way to deny this to get her off of our phone line. It was absolutely despicable.”

The claim they went after her for, from her now dead from cancer husband, was roughly $500,000. HALF A MILLION from a woman who had nothing

[blue @bluewmist]

my therapist just told me, “if you’re always having to be the bigger person, maybe you shouldn’t be around so many little people.” wow.
