@EmbarrassTom @KenLaCorte And yet residents of rural areas depend on social support via government at a much higher rate per capita than urban…

@KenLaCorte Residents of cities are inherently dependent. There is very little in the way of practical necessities that urban dwellers can provide for themselves. And while I think folks are (mostly) oblivious to this as an abstract notion, they want assurances that their needs will be met.

Why are cities liberal and rural areas conservative? I thought I knew the answer, but discovered that it's a new phenomenon. The rural/urban divide occurred in my lifetime. Here's what happened ...

I love Iowa winning. I don’t get dogging the opponent. I think it is classless. I think the coach in me will always respect the opponent. What a great season for Nebraska. What a classy team and coach #Hawkeyes #Cornhuskers

@matt_vanswol Because GOP legislators don’t want to pass anything that’s ultra-popular? Their entire shtick is lying about what’s in the legislation they do pass because people dislike it so much.

Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks, M.D.
The University of Iowa Center for Intellectual Freedom should live up to its name by honoring a true defender of free speech and open debate. Charlie Kirk dedicated his life to advancing intellectual freedom, empowering students, and challenging the cancel culture mob that seeks to silence dissent. That’s why I strongly support renaming it the Charlie Kirk Center for Intellectual Freedom, a lasting tribute that would inspire generations of Iowans to stand boldly for liberty and the truth.

"When wealth is passed off as merit, bad luck is seen as bad character. This is how idealogues justify punishing the sick and the poor. But poverty is neither a crime nor a character flaw. Stigmatize those who let people die, not those who struggle to live."

Oyer: Perhaps the most personally upsetting part of the story is the lengths to which the leadership of the department has gone to prevent me from testifying here today. On Friday night, I learned that the Deputy Attorney General’s office had directed the department’s Security and Emergency Planning Service to send two armed Special Deputy U.S. Marshals to my home to serve me with a letter. The letter was to be served between 9:00 and 10:00 p.m. that night. I was in the car with my husband and my parents—who are sitting behind me today—when I got the news that the officers were on their way to my house, where my teenage child was home alone. Fortunately, due to the grace of a very decent person who understood how upsetting this would be, I was able to confirm receipt of the letter via email, and the deputies were called off. At no point did Mr. Blanche’s staff pick up the phone and call me before they sent armed deputies to my home. The letter was a warning to me about the risks of testifying here today. But I am here, because I will not be bullied into concealing the ongoing corruption and abuse of power at the Department of Justice.

@gq007ia @owensiebring Dwight went for 183 total yards and scored all 4 touchdowns for the Little Hawks. Banks ran for 246 yards and 3 touchdowns on the ground. Place was packed. An all timer

@owensiebring Watch the Banks vs Dwight at City High. As good as the title game was, that game was electric the year prior.

Tim Dwight's going to get inducted in the NFHS Hall of Fame later this year. I'm not old enough to have seen him in person. But looking through some old archives, this guy was an alien, right? Like he was a high school cheat code? Cooper Dejean is the best high school athlete I've covered, and Dwight not only looks bigger and stronger, but he was erasing 4A opponents like it was nothing.

@GPinTN1 @owensiebring I remember driving to IC from CR to watch Bettendorf/City High playoff game Banks’ senior yr/Dwight’s jr yr. Dwight went for 183 total yards and scored all 4 touchdowns for the Little Hawks. Banks ran for 246 yards and 3 touchdowns on the ground. All timer

@owensiebring Timmy was like 5'9 180 in HS. He wasn't as big as Coop but he was probably faster. Within a step of each other anyway. He and Tavian Banks were in back to back classes. 2 of the fastest ftball players Iowas ever had

@drzymalas Akin to an old saying, “if a man cheats in life, he may cheat at golf, but if he cheats at golf he definitely cheats at life.” So basically, birds of a feather.

Elon Musk may be a known liar and charlatan, but he is also the current richest person in the world, owns the platform where I’m posting this, and seems to be controlling the man about to be sworn in as president of the United States next week. So we need to talk about him. 1/
