So you are not of the opinion that our political leaders seem to be that the hogs have had it too good for too long?

When it comes to living conditions for pigs waiting for slaughter I’m for making them even worse. Those pigs have it good enough

Dr @theswinerepublic.bsky.social have you written about the connection between prop 12 and the water quality issues? I know that’s the project generally but is there something specific and if not can you comment on specifics so I can cite it?

JD’s baseball player story doesn’t line up at first glance with a working class campaign, but minor league baseball players unionized in the last few years alongside many other workers. A different way of chasing the American Dream.

‘CEO’ probably is a great term for the algorithms. High profile, public, net negative views.

Sage can do a Pride message where it’s him in polos of all the colors of the rainbow. May have got there already in the campaign.

For real though teachers should hold considerable sway on elected school boards and shouldn’t be shy about it. They are the ones doing the work!

Rob support socialist principles like Zohran in NYC and I predict an army of Iowa volunteers will sign up on day one

I never believe it when cops say they found an actual pipe bomb or something similar

Person just wanted their freedom not sure why they need to be ridiculed

This is what happens when you criminalize more sensible options

Insiders acting just how you’d expect them

Becoming very cynical about politics

This is what will come to be known as Socialist Eastern Iowa. We can build a thriving nation of 5 million and that again here, where our people thrive and each works for the benefit of all.

Have to have our priorities straight

Love this daily blog update on the Des Moines Water Crisis where they are like, we did the math and sod installers can still do their thing don’t worry.

The problem with the two parties is that they are bought by big money interests. Sand offers something intriguing but not really opposed to the money side of things. It’s easy to see Sand’s movement, as it were, as big money interests finding a third way with the two parties discredited.

Socialism can thrive in Eastern Iowa under Governor Rob Sand
