The Governor had more staff than she could pay, so she used pandemic funds.

A spreadsheet was altered to look like the $ shortfall was COVID related.

We warned her over a year ago it would be difficult for that to be a qualifying use.

Here we are.

At least someone is looking out for the safety of Iowa's children. It sure isn't COVID Kim.

Gov. Kim Reynolds said that she pursue all legal avenues to keep the ban on school district mask mandates in place, arguing that a federal judge "took away parents’ ability to decide what’s best for their child." https://t.co/QqEn6Bg5Yw

BREAKING: A federal judge has issued a temporary block on Iowa's law that bans local school districts from mandating masks. https://t.co/oifWEmADa9

@KCRG Has COVID Kim ever heard of Polio, Rhubella, or Typhoid? Vaccines have been mandated many times to protect humans from disease. Some Kim, but there is no vaccine to prevent stupid yet.

”You cannot say, ‘Well, for students with disabilities we are just going to put you over here and the rest of the students can be integrated with the rest of the community,” a spokesperson for the ACLU said about its lawsuit against Iowa's mask mandate ban https://t.co/Pllw48xzLd

A letter sent by the Linn County Board of Health on Friday to Cedar Rapids schools suggests that the district requires face coverings in its buildings, highlighting a section of state code that could allow such a requirement. https://t.co/IWuhBFrGr5

Point fingers at anyone else in order to avoid the blame for your own mistakes. I wonder where she learned that trick...hmmm.

[KCRG-TV9 @KCRG]

Gov. Reynolds issued a statement on Monday, calling the Department of Education's civil rights investigation into Iowa's mask mandate ban a partisan-driven fight "to distract from [Biden's] own failures - Afghanistan, the border, inflation, and more." https://t.co/7FAcjdkCFr

Public health is a responsibility of our governing body, regardless of their personal feelings.

A Council Bluffs mom filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against the state’s ban on mask mandates. It names Gov. Kim Reynolds, the state's director of education Ann lebo, and others, and asks the judge to allow school districts to be allowed to implement mandates https://t.co/QpsFpvUODg

On Friday, Iowa City Mayor Bruce Teague made it very clear: not wearing a face covering while out in public was breaking his order. But, he added that there wasn’t a punishment for violators; instead, city employees would try to educate and hand out masks. https://t.co/4dzfGgMyTH

Logic comes to the defense of human rights.

[KCRG-TV9 @KCRG]

The federal Education Department may use its civil rights arm to fight policies that ban local school districts from implementing mask mandates in several states, including Iowa. https://t.co/9WEVAZd6cg

Thank you.

Iowa City mayor defies state law, issues mask mandate https://t.co/Id8UyX8nYe

[Kevin Barnes @kpb525]

@KCRG If you want a direct or decisive response, you will not find it in these remarks from a professional politician. COVID Kim lives by the CYA at all costs rule. She could care less about the people of Iowa.

[Kevin Barnes @kpb525]

She once again proves that she is a politician. At no time in the interview did she provide a direct or decisive response. She firmly follows the CYA at all costs rule.

@KCRG How many governors forced laws through to block public safety other than Iowa's COVID supporter?
