Wouldn't it be nice if senators who aren't running for re-election (Ernst) did some good at the end of her term?

🤞

Dare we hope this means a governor Sand in Iowa next year? And maybe getting MMM and Hinson out of congress?

Update: it went to the current mayor pro tem. I'm sure she's fine.

Somehow I doubt the mayoral race in Coralville, Iowa, will be reported on early

People know car radios still exist, right? Like, you can just turn them on!

Teen Vogue was one of the leaders of the resistance. Scary to have their politics staff laid off.

They clearly needed some Muppets to

Iowa City. Iowa!

What is she raising funds for?

Important context includes "Iowa's governor hates Des Moines" and also "There's a Des Moines school board member running for Senate."

It's "Willy hears ya. Willy don't care." Which I use in response to things like the oven timer going off (while getting things out of the oven)

That was my favorite joke! Feels like no one in my theater caught it

Fox is a cable network, which isn't regulated by the FCC the way broadcast networks are.

Higher Ed Has a Bigger Problem Than Trump Universities should see the president’s interventions as a wake-up call, not the root of their troubles. By E. Thomas Finan

Universities can begin to assuage this skepticism by committing to addressing America’s biggest problems, starting with polarization. American colleges must become a venue for the frank but charitable exchange of ideas. College is not simply a debating society, yet many schools risk stifling dialogue, even if unintentionally. A recent study of University of Michigan and Northwestern University students by the psychology researchers Kevin Waldman and Forest Romm found that 72 percent reported self-censoring their political beliefs. Perhaps more troubling, 82 percent had turned in work that misrepresented their beliefs “to align with a professor’s expectations.” Such pervasive self-censorship not only undercuts universities’ academic mission—it also validates the widespread suspicion that campuses replicate bias instead of challenging it.

Students being progressive is not a bigger problem than a sustained assault by an authoritarian president, please get a grip

Even if this were true, is anyone going to do anything about it?

I saw it! It felt very Superman-y

Vote them all out.

Seems pretty obvious that's what they're doing, honestly

Nate Sage, Zach Wahls, or JD Scholten would make better senators. Ernst hasn't brought anything of value to Congress or to Iowa.

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

The dog!

I'm pretty sure I had a Girl Scout kid selling those! Timing checks out

This doesn't make blue voters in Missouri, or Iowa, feel very welcome

Could Cole maybe get a different schtick than picking on trans people and acting like she's better than everyone else?

I guess there was also a plan for universal child care, but Nixon vetoed it because communism (?). Forgive me if that is also in the article. We could have had ut so much better.
