Iowa

Hooray! It looks like Iowa is actually starting to care about its children!

On Wednesday, NBC’s Today was beside itself as the Iowa legislature approved a six-week limit on abortions with exceptions for rape, incest, and the life of the mother, so NBC naturally threw a pit party for Hawkeye State baby killers in, bemoaning the new “battle lines” and “intense debate” resulting from the move.

Washington Post reporter Annie Gowen mourned "Iowa has veered so far to the right" that it's no longer "the centrist place that chose Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012....A joke among statehouse reporters is that Iowa is becoming the “Florida of the North” — without the beaches."

She's not much of a VP, but she's unquestionably the Queen of Cringe. Vice President and gaffe-maker Kamala Harris strengthened her supposed credentials during an embarrassing visit to the Howard University men’s basketball locker room Thursday after the Bison absorbed a thorough beating from the Kansas Jayhawks. She gave March Madness another maddening moment, too.

The Daily Beast offered a reminder Thursday of how there’s no bottom to their juvenile but slimy reporting as reporters Jake Lahut and former conservative-turned-real-life-Randall Zachary Petrizzo offered an audition for the grocery store tabloids in “The GOP Campaign Trail Is Already Getting DeSantis-Proofed.” The big scoop? Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) isn’t a social butterfly and allegedly…

While the military is focused on foreign objects flying over American and Canadian territory, a more disturbing threat to our national security is occurring on the ground. Federal, state and local governments are behind in their response to the acquisition of American land by people and companies associated with the Chinese government.

Diocese's new policy regarding transgenderism has all the right people howling with outrage.

In just over a month our nation will celebrate World Vasectomy Day. In honor of the holiday and Roe’s reversal this past summer, one doctor has decided to travel across Iowa to offer free vasectomies.

The Democrat Party often wonders why it can’t compete with Republicans in rural midwestern states. If they look at their favorite cable network's rhetoric they will know why that is. Moments after Iowa Republican Governor Kim Reynolds finished her response to President Joe Biden’s State of the Union address, Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell mocked her. 

Congress has remained locked in a stalemate over how to tackle Big Tech tyranny. Meanwhile, state governments have stepped up and decided to take matters into their own hands where the federal government has failed. The partisan gridlock in Congress grew more apparent as Republicans and Democrats clashed with Big Tech executives —  and with each other —  in a March 25 hearing. Twenty-eight…

Iowa legislators proved that they were serious in the fight against Big Tech when the state Senate joined the Iowa House in passing its own bill to combat online censorship. The Iowa Senate passed its latest measure on March 17 to tackle the issue of Big Tech censorship. Senate File 580 could remove tax incentives from companies that censor content.

Iowa Republicans have decided to lay down the law against Big Tech censorship and have joined the growing list of state legislatures fighting against abuses by Big Tech. Iowa State Representatives Jon Jacobsen (R), Anne Osmundson (R), and Skyler Wheeler (R) have introduced a bill to discourage and potentially penalize social media platforms that engage in online censorship.
