Iowa, the corn and hog farm state, that told food-assistance recipients they could not buy fresh meat with their assistance, because clearly the poor do not need quality protein. Makes Joni seem the natural sort of Senator for them. I still say "You first, honey. Give up your health care first."
They should somehow also create a T-shirt with something about the 'tooth fairy' remark she made in her second (supposed apology) statement filmed in a cemetery.
Young people don’t know the history of Iowa. Previously was blue. Iowa propelled President Barack Obama to presidential nomination. Urban is primarily blue, rural out of touch primarily MAGA.
I have a lot of family in Iowa mostly near Des Moines. Some of them are the most lovely and compassionate people I know who have been protesting regularly. We can’t write off whole states because of small majorities of voters.
I'm picturing an Iowan farmer rolling up to the fence on a Deere tractor wearing this shirt unironically, a John Deere trucker hat on to match and waving his hand with a big toothy grin "Well hi, neighbor!"
What really angers me about her comments…the fact that people aren’t dying fast enough for Republicans. They want the old and the sick and the disabled to die faster. Why?
Go into a Physical Rehab/Nursing Care Home...Not a friggin wheelchair with a removable arm for a friend of mine for 10 days...she stayed in bed and got bedsores!
They use a wood slideboard to take her from a bed to a wheelchair...someone stole hers...They have one Hoyer lift for over 100 patients...they line them up in the hallways, all day, like its the Indy 500.
Blood in her diapers, the CNA was going to throw the diaper away...I asked her when did a 81 year old start to have her period.? They were never told to alert a nurse...
FL nursing homes are where they go to die!
Iowa what did you vote for? When a farmer gets fat he votes in a Republican. I got that right! Midterm vote all Republicans out of office, it's your civic duty as an American, don't leave one behind. What has a Republican done for you beside steal your health benefits in the night like a thieve?
And I find that most MAGApublicans, when confronted w/ actual quotes and actions of the people they mindlessly voted for, just dig in their heels harder. They cannot be wrong.
Cool that Ray Gun’s on it. Meanwhile, I’m a trans refugee living in fear and instability. This Pride Month, remember: some of us are just fighting to stay alive.
I fight every day, in whatever way I can. From sitting on the board of a not-for-profit that offers social and harm reduction services to the LGBTQ+ community to producing drag shows, Pride festivals and fundraising events. I try not to just say I’m an ally; I try to BE an ally by showing up.
There was a thing we said in the sixties “No One Is Getting Out Alive” maybe it was all due to all the upheaval that happened back then including the Vietnam War. The protests were constant.
Prefer the whole quote: "Well, we're all going to die..." would like to see a "dark" design also. Maybe the grim reaper in a 🤷♂️ pose. But this one is great.

Ernst had to go and steal the limelight with her GOP proclamation.
@jdscholten.bsky.social
She won’t be re-elected next term. You heard it here first!
“You first, Joni”
This budget is just ridiculous, horrible, disgusting
Please CALL your senators... it works
STOP 🛑 this MURDER budget

FL nursing homes are where they go to die!
“You send them to their death, when you send them to a nursing home.”
I don’t understand why anyone would want to be cared for by strangers in their last moments of life.
Is this heaven?
Nope. Not since Joni came around. It’s Iowa.
It's definitely a great inside joke 😅
And then after being called out for it, *doubling down* on it 🙄
It's amazing how it feels to grow up in an area that feels like America left the building in the 90s.
Iowa nice, let a lot of people get elected, who don't really represent the people.
I've suggested she buy this t-shirt for the sister.
It took a few weeks after I said it was morbid, and the candle is gone now.
Candles. When you care enough to send the very best.

Rationality, logic, fact-based argument, basic fucking human empathy, all are anathema to their twisted little hate-filled minds.
Trying to reason with them beyond a reasonable, token effort is a waste of time and energy that is better spent on resistance.
Picture. This is great

To me it's as serious as

"We all are going to die."
