How Can Iowa Control Property Tax Increases?
One way is to support SSB1229 which limits ability of government to use taxpayer dollars to pay lobbyists (counties and municipalities using your money to lobby for more taxes)
There is an easy link to email your legislators

This massacre in New Zealand seems almost too perfect. AR 15, White-supremacist Manifesto, reference to Trump, racist writing on weapon, immigrant victims, religious venue, immediate ISIS response… All the proper ingredients to create a backlash against conservatives. Something doesn’t add up. Am I hearing black helicopters?

In order to soothe the feelings of Ilhan Omar’s “fans”, the “resolution to condemn “all bad stuff” Speaker Pelosi cobbled together to initially censure Ilhan Omar even included condemnation of the “Dreyfus Affair”!
Now I can understand why she may feel some animus toward Richard Dreyfus for his dreadful movie, “Mr. Holland’s Opus”, but gosh! I didn’t think it was on a par with blatant anti-semitism!

Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren said she has “zero” sympathy for anyone who lied or cheated in order to get into a college, in a Wednesday interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” . . .
Warren allegedly indicated that she was a Native American in her official documents while she was a law professor at Harvard University, although a September report revealed that the University said they didn’t consider her status in their hiring decision.
In a continuation of the scandal, It was revealed that Warren did, in fact,
indicate she was a Native American in her registration to the Texas Bar — a poor judgment call she quickly apologized for.
“I can’t go back,” Warren said in an interview with the Washington Post. “But I am sorry for furthering confusion on tribal sovereignty and tribal citizenship and harm that resulted.”

About the same subject from GM
Today, my dad and I were conversing when he asked, “Why would those stars pay that kind of money to get their kids into college?”
I responded, “Those aren’t just any colleges. A diploma, along with the classmates you rub shoulders with at those elite schools, are tickets into the good-old-boys network. Almost a guarantee of a gravy job for top-dollar.”
He then asked, “Won’t their employer soon learn they aren’t very smart?”
I said, “Half the people running the world aren’t very smart.”
As a kid, I watched the Wizard of Oz a dozen times. The scarecrow had no brain. Then the wizard gave him a diploma. “Nuf said.”

‘HANDS OFF VENEZUELA’ PROTESTERS SAY THEY WOULD TRADE TRUMP FOR SOCIALIST DICTATOR MADURO
That’s OK. I’d Trade Them (Including AOC) For The People of Venezuela!
In fact I would trade them for a herd of goats!

Hmm, Yeah, I think I can see the “former Willie Brown ‘squeeze'” opposing most any penalty for treason. Might pose a personal risk for the ‘lady’. D.
