Spending $1.3 billion more than we are taking in? Year after year?

That's the fiscal time bomb insiders have made for Iowans.

BREAKING

U.S. Congressman Thomas Massie:

“Just withhold foreign aid to Israel for a month and they’ll stop bombing their neighbors — instant peace.”

“Israel has been, and continues to be, the biggest welfare recipient from American tax payers.”

[Emoluments Clause @Emolclause]

#BREAKING: #Talarico: “Since taking office, #KenPaxton’s net worth has increased 7000%, while our wages have remained stagnant. He now owns 11 homes when most Texans can’t afford one. He’s taken bribes from wealthy donors, all while blocking overtime pay for Texas workers and gutting our healthcare. This is the ROT at the core of our broken political system. It’s why we can’t afford anything. It’s why we can’t get ahead, no matter how hard we work.”

[Marco Foster @MarcoFoster_]

James Talarico: “We were not founded as a Christian nation. We were founded as a nation where you are free to be a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim or a Sikh or Buddhist or an Atheist. That’s the promise of America that we are this multicultural melting pot”

Iowa’s leaders have spent the last several years attacking and undermining public education by passing a wasteful private school voucher program and ignoring students' needs.

If we want to get back to our former status as one of the best states for public education, we need to invest in public education, not defund it. https://t.co/kD7nCwBzaa

We already have a process for determining whether accusers are credible. It’s called a trial. And a jury already decided they believed E Jean Carroll. THIS is weaponization.

A reminder to all Iowans that @RepAshleyHinson, @RepMMM, @RepFeenstra, and @ZachNunn ALL want to punish women and endanger their lives using their “right to life” bullshit.

Women have a right to life.

Vote Blue.

Ted Lieu says the unreleased Epstein files show Trump r*ping children.

That’s what’s being hidden. That’s why the files stay sealed. That’s why there are no arrests.

Release everything. Or resign.

[Raymond Baker @RayBake]

Jake Swanson is an ethanol lobbyist with deep, deep ties to @IAGovernor.

He recruited and paid people, and hired a bus, to attend the lame rally last week with @VP @JDVance and @ZachNunn.

Sickening.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

State supreme court justices play a critical role in defending your rights and freedoms, which is why the election happening in Georgia right now is so important.

Make sure you have a plan to vote for Jen Jordan and Miracle Rankin, the only two candidates in the race with strong records of standing up for all Georgians.

Early voting is already underway and Election Day is May 19th. Find out where you can vote at https://t.co/OHJnsHnuiB.

[Raymond Baker @RayBake]

Nothing to worry about, nothing to see...just the firing of Iowa's IPERS CEO hired by @IAGovernor.

And the state is tight lipped about the misconduct allegations. What's Reynolds hiding this time?

@IAGovernor @IowaHHS @CMSGov @DrOzCMS Remember when @RobSandIA caught YOU stealing Covid relief funds earmarked for the people of Iowa and using them to pay for a computer system for your staff?

THAT was fraud AND abuse of taxpayer funds, @IAGovernor.

The fraud in Iowa is coming from inside Terrace Hill.

[Raymond Baker @RayBake]

Repost please and follow @PetermanForIowa.

Ryan is running to replace the corrupt Republican Secretary of State, @IowaSOS Paul Pate.

https://t.co/QSNdA5DpZx.

[Raymond Baker @RayBake]

Iowa Secretary of State @IowaSOS Paul Pate and Iowa Attorney General @AGIowa Brenna Bird have betrayed the trust of every Iowan.

Shame on both of them.

What's really going on, @ChuckGrassley?

You NOW want a BILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS to fund Trump's golden ballroom while Iowa farmers go bankrupt?

A BILLION dollars to appease the corrupt Trump?

Are you nuts?

[Raymond Baker @RayBake]

Once again I'm asking...where is the social media campaign from the @IowaDemocrats punching back on the lies being told by Iowa MAGA Republicans right now?

Where is @RitaHart with snappy, snarky, funny, attention grabbing posts promoting Iowa Democrats?

Where are they?????????

@SenateGOP Bullshit!

Inflation rose because we had a worldwide pandemic and supply chain issues.

Convenient how you want to blame Joe Biden when it was Trump who totally mismanaged and bungled the pandemic from the start.
