#DemsUnited #wtpBLUE Iowa may elect a Democrat for Governor who isn't your typical Democrat. As Auditor for the State of Iowa, Rob Sand is ready and willing to root out the corruption provided by the Trump Republican Party. He’s genuinely campaigning to be Iowa’s public servant while we wait for the Republicans to buy the election for Randy Feenstra’s campaign. Of course, Rob is financing his campaign by individual Iowans. Republicans, Independents, and Democrats like and respect Rob enough to make him Iowa’s next Governor. secure.actblue.com/donate/bs_web_… Let’s give Rob a chance to make Iowa better for all citizens. Your donation will propel Rob ahead to victory. The Cook Political Report predicts this race will be a toss-up. Voters genuinely trust @RobSandIA and want to give him a chance to turn things around in Iowa so that every family can be included in making their lives better. Iowa has been a state literally full of Republicans but the voters are fed up with the Trumpism corruption. Rob Sand brings honesty to the table and given his job, he can root out any of Donald Trump’s second-term policies hurting the working folks of Iowa. Rob is a true bipartisan candidate and a breath of fresh air to Iowa politics. He’s only interested in helping Iowans, not a political party. At this point in his campaign for Governor, it looks like Iowa will give Rob a chance to prove he’ll be a great Governor.

Spirit Airlines died tonight at the hands of the socialist crusader, Elizabeth Warren She must be so proud to add another casket to her achievements. Tonight at 3am, Spirit turns off the lights. 14,000 jobs gone. 30+ smaller airports lose service. JetBlue offered $3.8 BILLION in cash to buy Spirit in 2022. Shareholders, flight attendants union, literally everyone voted yes. The combined company would have held 9% of the US market against a Big 4 that already owned 80%. For anyone who understands numbers: 9% isn’t a monopoly against 80%. Warren said no. She wrote letters. She pressured Buttigieg. Biden’s DOJ sued. A federal judge killed the deal in January 2024. Her argument: the merger would cost consumers $1 billion a year. Now look at her collateral damage she dusts under the rug. 510 pilots gone in the months after. 1,800 flight attendants furloughed in December. 14,000 jobs in 2023. 7,500 last week. Zero tonight. And that’s just the people in Spirit uniforms. Catering goes. Fuel guys go. Baggage crews, gate agents, airport coffee shops, hotels and rental cars in 70 cities Spirit flew to. Every airline job carries 3 more on its back. 40,000 people out of work because of one woman’s moronic crusade against the market. And the math ain’t mathing. Spirit abandoned 90 routes during the death spiral. Fares on those routes are up 14% on average. Oakland to Newark: $135 to $288. Fort Myers to San Juan: $92 to $219. Kansas City to Newark up 66%. That’s reality. Not some BS number from a “study.” So @SenWarren tell me how this saves the consumer money? Cheap carriers in a market drop fares 21% across the board. Southwest did this in the 90s and saved Americans $68 BILLION over 20 years. Warren killed it. That’s what moronic politicians led by socialism do. Then with her own blind arrogance, she tweeted Spirit’s collapse is “a Biden win for flyers.” A win. 14,000 people are reading termination letters tonight. And she’s taking credit. This is socialism in 2026. A senator who’s never made payroll thinks she knows how to run a market better than the people who own and work in the company. She saved you a billion on imaginary paper. She cost you ten times that in real life. She didn’t protect consumers from anything. 14,000+ will go from working to welfare. She will make sure to blame billionaires, hardworking tax payers, AI, capitalism and whatever monster they will make up tomorrow hiding under your bed. Higher taxes. Fewer jobs. More expensive everything. She called it a win. I hope you enjoy winning.

WSJ: Ruby Red Iowa Backed Trump by 13 Points in 2024. Now It’s a Battleground. Iowa has trended red for a decade, but Democrats are showing signs of life, and that could help their party reclaim Congress and maybe even a governorship wsj.com/politics/elect…

Americans deserve robust competition & affordable airfares. USDOT supports DOJ's antitrust lawsuit, & we plan to deny the JetBlue-Spirit request for an exemption on their merger deal. We will continue with our own investigation while supporting DOJ's work. transportation.gov/briefing-room/…
