In Iowa it’s illegal for public entities, including schools, to use terms like equity, diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism. Meanwhile Iowa’s economy is last, our budget is in a shortfall, and more folks are moving out in. They’re fighting culture wars while so many are fighting to survive.

This sort of disinformation, particularly from someone who leads a political party, in a county with numerous Muslim residents is dangerous, uncalled for, and life threatening. Local GOP officials should condemn this language and an apology should be issued. #hatehasnohomehere #SpreadTheWord

If it wasn’t bad they’d release it. If it wasn’t terrible they wouldn’t have sent the House home. But it is terrible and the Epstein Files should be released and anyone and everyone in them guilty of crimes should be held fully accountable. #Epstein

They said the same thing about Afghanistan. They said the same thing about Iraq. And we spent trillions and thousands of American lives for a mess, for nothing. Almost my entire life has been spent at war in the Middle East. It’s about right and wrong not progressive vs everyone else. #DoBetter
CNN’s Van Jones urges “progressives” to “get on board” with bombing Iran:
“I think progressives underestimate how dangerous Iran is. Iran is not a normal country,” he said on air.
Jones did not share whether he considers Israel—an apartheid state currently committing genocide—a “normal country.”

I, for one, cannot believe that the indicted felon grifter grifted enough people into believing he was the more peaceful option in two campaigns just to start a third war in the Middle East since I was 11. Totally cannot believe it.
