Some are saying Jack Smith should be next AG. The guy just showed up at a Boss concert wearing a No Kings shirt. At this point, I'm thinking President. I think this guy has what it takes to fix what needs fixed.

You can read multiple posts per day with this same theme. They can all be titled, "As Putin Wishes". We have no antidote as things currently stand. But you CAN DO SOMETHING. Vote BLUE. Vote out every "R".

The only guy I can think of who may have come close is George Amundson, but I'm not sure about individual game performances. He was good enough to win Big 8 Offensive Player of the Year over Johnny Rodgers when JR won the Heisman. #BlueCy

Iowans want to see more regulations for industrial agriculture in the state, according to 2026 polling. A pivotal swing state this cycle, the issue could be a deciding factor as Iowans go to the polls in November.

A chart reads: 79% of Iowa voters think industrial agriculture should be forced to cut pollution. Bars represent individual political parties' thoughts on the same.
