Iowa isn't the only state that did that. North Dakota took Covid funding and gave it to fracking.

Unbelievable

Iowa and North Dakota - please give a BIG SLAP to Trump and the GOP in the election.

And yet those idiots will still vote GOP.

Kim Reynolds is such a fuck-up. Well, not as in "oops I fucked up" but more like "I'm doing to fuck all this up in service to the Orange One". She and Joni Ernst are in lockstep with the Trump administration, no matter how much it hurts Iowans. The absolute opposite of Abby Finkenauer, a young dem rep in Eastern Iowa who thrives on being with the people. She was literally livestreaming on the streets after the destructive derecho in Eastern Iowa back in August, calling out Republican leaders for severe delays in relief funding. She was volunteering, getting relief donations and bringing awareness to this freak storm & the severe destruction it caused. Kim Reynolds fucked that up too. Looking at our leaders in Iowa, it's like night and day.

Another shitty fact about the derecho storm relief: Trump wanted to withhold relief money to Linn County because it was one of three Iowa counties the Trump administration was suing because they were providing absentee ballots to all residents to get people to vote by mail due to the pandemic.

The Auditor, Rob Sand, is the highest ranking Democrat in statewide office. He ran a very effective race for Auditor two years ago and everyone wants him to run against our incompetent and now felonious governor.
