Maybe he can start by rehiring some the Gazette's best long-time reporters. Proof's in the pudding.

As an attorney, I find this ruling bizarre if not inexplicable. I haven't read the opinion but from the coverage it appears the judge admits the search was unconstitutional but still grants the rouge agents absolute immunity. That's just bullshit (a technical legal term) imo.

Congratulations to Scott Unash & Mark Dukes on their run as "The Gym Class on KGYM"

Another Rob Norton master stroke.

They did things their way. I did things my way. It worked, I think.

Please keep supporting what's left of local media, be it print, TV, radio, etc.

Chuck is not the person I got to know when we served together in the Iowa House + for several years thereafter. We may have had different perspectives on key issues but I always regarded him as a person of integrity. That appears to be no longer the case and it's sad to see that's how he fades away.

Each state senate district in Iowa consists of 2 House districts. 50 State Senate districts and 100 House districts total.

So does Iowa and has for decades. You need to update your research.

Morning Consult finds 49 out of 50 U.S. Governors have a net positive approval rating. The one exception? Kim Reynolds of Iowa, who is five points underwater

McCollum’s Next Task Is Building Hawkeyes’ Roster By JOHN BOHNENKAMP IOWA CITY, Iowa — Ben McCollum used his introductory press conference as Iowa’s new men’s basketball coach on Tuesday as a recruiting pitch to rebuild the Hawkeyes&#8…

The next task for Ben McCollum is rebuilding Iowa's roster. He had to do it last year at Drake, and now he has to do it again. iowacollegehoops.com/2025/03/27/m...

I didn't intend to get diverted this morning. Oh, well...

This is my best recollection of some of the "recent" (1970s on) history of certain aspects of the #Hawkeyes Athletic Department operations. Part of that comes from information provided to me at that time by the individuals directly involved.

One new thing we've learned is that Chuck Schumer is an excellent spelunker. He definitely knows how to cave. And being spineless is apparently a benefit when doing so.

Mostly try to avoid politics on this feed - but this is just posted from the White House Deputy Chief of Staff - and......it is horrifically disturbing and sick (regardless of what your politics are). Good God!

When can we get the edit function? Very important for news and sports media accounts!

Don’t Buy a Tesla. Sell Your Tesla. Refuse a Tesla at the Rental Counter. Yes—It Will Help. Elon Musk’s car company is in a precarious spot.

Tesla's stock is ridiculously overvalued, and even a modest consumer boycott could tank the company, which accounts for the majority of Elon Musk's wealth.
The divestment movement weakened apartheid South Africa. Let's do that again. slate.com/business/202...

Note to #NFL Teams. If you're drafting defensive backs or tight ends - the first place you should always look is at the Iowa #Hawkeyes.

Especially stop drafting over-rated Notre Dame players! I'm looking at you #Bears...

This is what we now have: "Project 2025" running the government + Trump as President for his ego, to avoid criminal prosecution, and more importantly to line his own pockets - graft/corruption (self-dealing, "bribes", business deals here & abroad), likely pocketing much of the inauguration $$, etc.

Thanks! Great feature. Hate the delay when watching live sports and following stats feeds simultaneously.

Where is that Brendan? I can't figure it under settings.

Completely agree. I'm, at this point at least, not confident they're going to get there. Going to need a big turn-around and improvement in many aspects - including the coaching.

At this rate the #Hawkeyes aren't going to earn a NIT appearance - so no worries for the (extremely few) fans pondering that possibility. Right now the MBB program looks like it should be moved to hospice.

3 things about this NFC game.

Phenomenal TD catch by Sam LaPorta - 1 of the best I've ever seen.

Tom Brady shouldn't even be allowed to do this game - blatant and notorious tampering with Ben Johnson. What a joke.

And, 3rd, #Bears just offer Ben Johnson the world and get this done.

With apologies (sort of) to my friends who are long-time Packers fans (and none to Domers)...

Just like my 2nd favorite college football team is whichever one is playing Notre Dame -- my 2nd favorite NFL team is whichever one is playing the Packers.

#Bears

Enjoy kicking the shit out of those Indiana assholes. The gods of basketball farts.

Playing not to lose just aggravates the hell out of me. Just like the prevent defense. Both are invitations to lose. #Bears #Hawkeyes #Ferentz

Didn't like the #Bears deciding to Ferentz (turtle) on that drive. Too early with that lead and a legit chance to win the game.

Maybe there are football gods after all...

You kind of live on the outskirts of town. Are you sure it was a costume?

Off-topic, but...

Courtesy of The Onion - and boy is it accurate (including in Iowa)...

And Cole Kmet is no George Kittle - not even remotely close. Could say more but will just leave it at that.
#Bears

For #Bears fans my forever green tweet/bleet. Always remember: Ryan Pace had the chance to draft life-long Bears fan George Kittle and skipped over him - just like he skipped Patrick Mahomes to draft Mitch Trubisky. I don't know how stupid a person can be but hard to imagine much worse than that.
