Watching now. I recommend you do the same. Very timely. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cover-U...

The time for Medicare for All is now.

None of us had any control over what country we were born in.

I call on Stephen Colbert to bring those who were interviewed for the segment onto his show. CBS is ending his show in May anyway, so why not? @colbertlateshow.bsky.social

USAID cuts death impact update, per: www.impactcounter.com/dashboard?vi...

1. He should be criticized. 2. What are the real reasons he isn’t releasing it? Well, it’d show we lost in large part because we didn’t run on economic progressive populism and because of our funding of the atrocities in Gaza. thenationaldesk.com/news/america...

Hey all, this is huge news. Reach out to your congressional reps and tell them to support the extension of the ACA credits! www.huffpost.com/entry/obamac...

It becomes harder by the day to endorse someone who doesn’t support a single payer universal health care plan like Medicare for All. I’m to the point where it’s almost impossible to.

I think Matt Campbell deserves as much gratitude as we can muster for all he’s done for Iowa. I wish him the best.

1/Hello all, I just wanted to give you a life update. After a lot of discussion with friends and family, thought, and prayer, I’ve decided to take an opportunity out of state, in the Dallas, TX area. To leave the state is heartbreaking, but the opportunity was undeniably too

Aftyn Behn, a young progressive, is going to come within single digits of victory in a Trump + 22 congressional district in the south. Progressive populism is the way.

I’m glad to see Rob acknowledge this issue.

True.

1/A number of friends I love dearly are in favor of term limits. I understand why. The goal is to reduce corruption in government by preventing people from being career politicians that lose touch with why they ran in the first place.

1/Much of American politics is convincing people that they are unreasonable for asking for their basic needs to be met. Case in point: Residents of nations around the world that long ago were guaranteed health care watch in bewilderment and horror as Americans are going without

1/Like many of you, many I love have been impacted by cancer. There's always going to be some plausible deniability as to what causes each individual case, but we can either choose to use the plausible deniability as an excuse to not take bold stances, or we can look to the

A great electoral evening!

1/Well, considering I ran against Feenstra twice, improving my performance during my second campaign against him in 33 of 36 counties while staying steady in the other 3 in a down cycle for Dems, while earning the endorsement of Feenstra’s Republican primary challenger, and

1/Well, Feenstra surprised me. He’s officially running for Gov. He’s not going to fare well beyond the 4th. He isn’t confident enough to debate or defend his worldview publicly, and a lot of my Republican friends dislike him. I’m sure the Dem candidates in the field would prefer

1/When a Democratic candidate for office advocates for “affordable and accessible health care”, it rings hollow, of buzzwords lacking in boldness and resolve, of tinkering with a status quo that at its root is nonsensical. It doesn’t meet the moment. We need a single payer

1/You can’t have the pipeline without eminent domain. As such, Feenstra gets no brownie points here, as he’s taken tens of thousands from the godfather of the pipeline, and often sung the pipeline’s praises www.radioiowa.com/2025/10/17/f...

1/Just talked to a guy in town today. He and his wife worked hard all their lives, and planned to have a nice retirement down south. Owned a small business for decades. www.ktiv.com/2025/10/17/i...

My best advice to any candidate for office: Chase truth, not votes.

I’m watching The Big Short. Feels appropriate for today’s times.

Thanks, Travis! I’m excited by your campaign and look forward to you continuing the good fight!

1/I proudly endorse Travis Terrell for Congress in his race against Miller-Meeks. It’s unfortunately rare these days to find candidates for office willing to speak the truth without hesitation, who are robust in their rejection of corporate PAC money, or who stop with the wishy

1/Randy did not move his exploratory committee for governor to the final official phase in September like he said he would. I’ve long predicted he wouldn’t end up running for Governor. www.siouxlandproud.com/news/your-lo...

Not good.

Wise words from The Pope. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTMjoQvQS/

1/The path forward for Democrats is not to abandon civil rights and the defense of basic human dignity, as I see some well known pundits on the left are now advocating for. That’s what got us into our current situation as a party. People aren’t voting for the party because they

1/Hey all, just a brief personal life update. I don’t have a job offer yet, still looking. Tough job market, for sure. I’ve found that per my career track and experience, the jobs I am most likely able to get are typically going to be out of state, so it is possible I may have to

I don’t see how this makes our state and nation better. Each apprehension is another tally on the scoreboard but for what purpose? To take esteemed leaders and educators away from our communities? Pointless. Harmful. A waste of taxpayer money.

The first Iowa Dem US Senate Candidate to embrace Medicare for All on their socials, website, and publicly would see a nice bump. It’d be a great way to stand out from the crowd. Just saying. :)

I'm happy to announce we have a candidate in HD7! That covers Sac, Calhoun, Pocahontas, and part of Webster Co (not Fort Dodge).
