A state of denial - Storm Lake Times Pilot Your typical dude avoids doctors and their probes because they would just find something wrong with him. Who needs that? Been there myself, for sure. Sometimes you’re forced to go and a blood …

A state of denial: #Iowa can't handle the truth about #cancer and pollution

#Iowans can reverse the trend by embracing CHANGE; elect former water scientist @theswinerepublic.bsky.social Chris Jones as your Secretary of Agriculture, who's committed to clean water!

Iowa ranks second in the nation for cancer rates, researchers urge lawmakers to act Iowa has the second-highest cancer rate in the country, and state-funded University of Iowa researchers are calling on lawmakers to do more to address it.

#Iowans: You can change your state's second highest #cancer problem by electing Chris Jones, author of @theswinerepublic.bsky.social, as your next #SecretaryofAgriculture.

It’s time to take Grassley’s keys away It was cute and fun at first. But on Tuesday, the Senator crossed a line.

It’s time to take Grassley’s keys away:

2 #Iowans dead, plus we had 2 national guardsmen dead in Syria in December. Just fvck Republicans forever.

Let's hope that #Iowans get out and vote!

Sgt Coady & Maj O'Brien we're both #Iowans.
People are mourning & hurting after these 6 EXTREMELY UNNECESSARY losses.
Call your Congress members, tell them to vote no to keep our shoulders out of an UNNECESSARY WAR.

Live Updates: Senate Republicans Block War Powers Limits as Mideast Crisis Widens

The Des Moines, #Iowa area suffers two reservists' deaths so far. I hope #Iowans vote.

#Iowans, be sure to VOTE:

Declan Coady trained as an information technology specialist with the Army Reserves. He had just told his father last Wednesday that he had been recommended for promotion and was hoping to be promoted to sergeant in April. Instead, he was posthumously promoted.

As an aside #Iowans, #AshleyHinson calls herself the most loyal Trump representative in the whole US House of Representatives. I can’t wait until she is no longer my rep. I also can’t wait until #ZachWahls or #JoshTurek Turek is my senator and #RobSand is my governor!

#Iowans: This is why former UI water scientist Chris Jones @theswinerepublic.bsky.social wants to be your next Secretary of Agriculture. Your current secretary, Mike Naig, has no solutions, just pandering to Big Ag.

Iowa's cancer rates soar, environmental factors blamed

Hey #Iowans - Durbin has a good point here. ICE is currently using facial recognition software during stops and PEACEFUL PROTESTS. How about asking Grassley some questions about these 702’s?

The ICEman Cometh But, are cracks forming in the ice?

A must-read for #Iowans from their future Secretary of Agriculture Chris Jones, a water scientist who knows a thing or two about #Ethanol:

🤭 And they'll bring you a hot dish to make you feel better about it all

(Even though we #Iowans know the proper term is "casserole" but #Minnesotans like to claim their hot dish is different from casserole even though really it's not - but this is a whole family drama thing and not really relevant)

Nitrini on Ice ....with a garnish of contagious viruses

#Iowans: Your future Secretary of Agriculture, former water scientist @theswinerepublic.bsky.social Chris Jones has taken time to explain (with charts and graphs) why your drinking water right now is under duress:

Tiling for Dollars A high level discussion is needed about drainage tile

Imagine, #Iowans, if you had an educator who believed in SCIENCE as your Secretary of Agriculture... Former #UniversityofIowa water scientist Chris Jones aka @theswinerepublic.bsky.social is the man! Here's what I'm talking 'bout:

I presume you don’t care, the number one supporter in The House of Donald Trump, as you call yourself. But, #AshleyHinson, he’s calling for the murder of congress people for some perceived treason. If you go along, we will beat you badly in the next election. #ChallengeEveryRepublican #Iowa2 #Iowans

Why use common sense and past history to make life better for all in the US, when whining will get you another #bailout?

Love this for #Iowans.

But everyone knows #Grassley will figure away to get lazy #Farmers the #Welfare they are used to getting.

#iowans Good luck.

Let’s stop letting politicians tell us what they want & start telling them what we want! This is exactly why I began holding Interview Sessions - to hear from actual Iowans! #jimmykimmel #iowa #iowans

Want a governor who actually listens to the public? Share your concerns with Julie today at the Bondurant Public Library.

The message to the #Iowans - who consistently vote REPUBLICAN ticket - should be that #GOP pretends to be your friendly "lawmaker", but in reality is the pest that causes your crops to rot, & Bayer, BASF, Nutrichem, etc. can't do a damn thing about it. Maybe #IOWA needs to vote differently 💡 (DOH!)

Iowan's need clean water! Our soils and grasslands have filtered our water for thousands of years, and they are in crisis. This destruction is a key factor impacting clean water in Iowa & must be stopped.

When is the September full moon? Iowans will miss the lunar eclipse. Here's why. September's full moon might as well be called the Iowa moon because it is named after one of the state's leading commodities.

Iowa skies during the first weekend of September. It is also known as the harvest moon because the September full moon coincides with harvest season.

#Iowans our "music fests" are working. Joni Hearse is not seeking reelection. Klan Reynolds is not seeking reelection. Let's keep the energy going for Ashley Hinson, Miller-Meeks, and Cuck Grassley!!!! #nokings2.0 #october18

‘We’re being extremely focused in our efforts:’ How an Iowa town is working to bring Iowans back amid ‘brain drain’ One Iowan shares why his family moved back to Iowa.

Congratulations, #CatelinDrey, a #Democrat who just won a #State #Senate seat in the #RedState of #Iowa. #JoniErnst, the ghoul who doesn't care if #Iowans die, won't be seeking re-election next year. #FlipHerSeat, too!
