Here's a better view of the crowd that turned out for Liz Cheney in Des Moines. Has anyone seen any local TV coverage of this event where she said the U.S. can't survive another Trump presidency? Me either. @KCCINews @WHO13news @iowanewsnow @maddow

We are not backing down. This election is not over. Our team is working across Mississippi to monitor the remaining ballots and protect the integrity of the process. We will see this through to the very end!

Last night was one of biggest repudiations of a president and his enablers in U.S. history. Congrats to all the winners, especially here in Iowa. It's nice to live again in a purple state where leaders have a real opportunity to work together to improve the lives of all Iowans.

Replying to @PeteButtigieg
I’m still shocked that a citizen from Kansas was able to run for Iowa governorship and it was much closer than it should’ve been. Regardless proven tonight that people are able to see above rhetoric and propaganda.

In the state legislature, Joe Mitchell voted against capping the cost of insulin and then took a check from Pfizer. On Tuesday, we need to send people who will champion working people, not the ultra wealthy and big corporations.

Yesterday, I stood outside Joe's housing development to call out his corruption. He voted for tax credits that let his real estate companies pocket millions. He took another $1M in tax credits to build a development that he moved into a week before he launched his campaign.

The Clear Lake address of Joe Mitchell, the Republican candidate in Iowa’s 2nd district, was listed for rent on Zillow as recently as this month. The campaign claims its just how Mitchell’s company advertises other properties on the app. iowastartingline.com/news/po…
When did Joe Mitchell move to Clear Lake?

When did Joe Mitchell move to Clear Lake?

Joe Mitchell’s Clear Lake address was listed for rent on Zillow until Oct. 17. His campaign says it’s to advertise the rental development.

I did not do the Jeffrey Epstein investigation alone. I had the support of @MiamiHerald —it’s then executive editor, Mindy Marques; and these two incredible journalists, investigations editor Casey Frank and visual journalist Emily Michot. Thank you to all the courageous victims who shared their stories with me, and to those on the Pulitzer Board who made this honor of a lifetime happen. #pulitzerprizes
