Iowa wants to remove the term "climate change" from school curricula. By Repub magical thinking standards, if you don't say the words it doesn't exist. They also want to ensure Iowa students are unprepared for higher education.

The history of failed nominations reminds us just how far some of the Cabinet nominees fall below any reasonable standard. The Senate has a constitutional role, and in the past has exercised it.

'A federal judge has allowed Missouri, Kansas, and Idaho to proceed with their lawsuit against mifepristone.'
occupydemocrats ABSOLUTE DISRESPECT! Why do true Americans not see the wrongness and disgrace in this? Flying flags half-staff for 30 days after the death of a former president was put in place by President Dwight Eisenhower 70 years ago in 1954 & has been done for every president since that time until this Monday when Mike Johnson will end that tradition at Donald Trump's demand. Gov. Abbott of Texas has already done so. All at the whim of a man with a personal EGO that over-shadows love of America and it's honorable traditions. Just pathetic!
Turnip, Mike Johnson, and other MAGAs are scum for disrespecting Former President Jimmy Carter like this! π€¬
