Has Sand met with socialists?

The state house elections of 2026 are the most direct line to real regulation of farm pollution in Iowa.

We can do better as a state than pipelines and pollution

Losing posture

Another scam!

Laehn appears to be a libertarian true believer but is extremely boring. Still, an independent minded senator who takes the job seriously could have some appeal when Presidents from both parties suck.

I wish people in Cedar Rapids would see this.

Would it really be the end of the world if there were 20% fewer hogs in the state 10 years from now?

The crowds keep growing for change in Iowa. The Iowa 100 will be the first step, by passing a legislative agenda that addresses real needs and will make immediate improvements.

If I were mayor I’d just come up with a pretext to have the building shut down completely

After hearing Sand talk more about the two party system and the need to get things done, I’m convinced he would work with and probably secretly support an independent grassroots legislative movement.

Iowa candidate for Governor Rob Sand:

This is The Eastern Iowa Arts Academy. Being in this building is a great outcome, but it‘s almost a two steps back one step forward situation. Longtime underfunding of arts in schools + closing down one neighborhood school lead to this. Building up new after cuts and sabotage will be important now.

*elite capture intensifies*

No room for hate in our gr8 state

Worst part about the Rob Sand gender answer is Sand was clearly annoyed by it but didn’t just light into the fake journalist and call him a hack. Maybe too soon but Sand needs to actually start “flipping tables” or else talking about it will eventually ring hollow.

Public health policies like vaccinations are the lowest hanging fruit where a Governor Rob Sand could make real change quietly that would help a lot of people, while knowing the objectors are truly fringe. “It will help keep kids healthy. This should not be a controversy.” Just say it over and over.

All the Facebook comments are like “yep this kid has been out of control his whole life and particularly driving like a maniac lately” and there has to be a better plan than ‘wait for him to start driving then do a head on collision on the highway to stop him.’

Saw this reasonable take while the school board was coming out and agreeing that Roberts, who as far as I know is still in jail, is indeed a bad guy and deserves it.

The plan endorsed by Rob Sand is an open primary where the top 5 candidates advance to a ranked choice general election.

Obviously Dr Roberts had the gun in case there was a school shooting. Someone who really cared about what was best for the kids would go to any length to protect them. And he was already a hunter and gun owner? Maybe it was wrong to go against the rules like that but heroes do

I would say my speech is chilled 4-5x a day lately

Said this on Facebook but repeating here. There is no allegation, let alone any evidence, that Dr Roberts put any kids safety at risk. It’s a racist, nativist lie and participating in it is shameful.

#Eddiementum is growing

Sand’s campaign is going to end up down a very dark path. A step and a half to the left of whatever the Trump admin is doing is going to see him signing on to some truly terrible stuff, like the racist nativist frenzy driving this story online. Definitely not the moderation that appeals to people

Not exactly pro immigrant

No, immigrants are not bad. No, a person is not evil or violent just because the government and media blasts their face all over.

Massive story all day with mostly crickets from leading Democrats. Intrepid reporter @justinkcomer.rockhardcauc.us stumbles into Rob Sand and finally gets someone on the record.

Very successful enrichment program in Cedar Rapids public schools ended after the Office of Civil Rights tells the district to kill it

Someone ask @iowademocrats.bsky.social chair Rita Hart if she agrees with those calling Iowa Republican Senate candidate Ashley Hinson a “dumb bitch”.

Rob Sand does a press conference and starts eating gas station pizza everytime there is a hard question would be a pretty funny skit

Was clear long before this that Kim Reynolds was unfit for office, but Stauch is right here that allowing ICE to terrorize our state is a clear failure.

I would like the US government to stop doing terrorism at home and abroad

This is what they need the new jail in Johnson County for

Sounds like a dumb policy

Write-In @lyz.bsky.social for Mayor of Cedar Rapids

Sand suggests here that sharing “quotes” after the killing of Charlie Kirk is a way of “speaking ill of the dead.” If that’s the right way to think of this, I will expect Sand to be very loudly and directly speaking out against those who spread hate while they are living.

The face of the ugly MAGA movement in Iowa

Stop pipelines and pollution Fix vouchers Legalize cannabis Raise minimum wage Pass ranked choice voting #IALegis #theiowa100

Adopting a pan-revolutionary cultural aesthetic

Let’s go good flag argument is just what we need

Iowa could save $2.2 billion over the next ten years by putting income limits back into the state voucher program.

I’m supposed to be happy the police are doing this?

Didn’t read the Trump Hinson endorsement closely so missed that he just came out and called her a paid spokesperson. I love when he says the obvious thing!

Serving on a school board through Covid, it became obvious that we had to start directly challenging the anti-science noise, which even if local constituents were well meaning was bad faith from the top leading the way. Just going back to normal ASAP has lead to this. But most people know better!
