And there it is, Americans.
@POTUS does NOT give one flying F if we're paying outrageous prices for a gallon of gas or diesel because HE'S personally making a bundle.
When he says, "I don't give a damn." He means it.
Vote BLUE to end this madness.
$100 bucks says the imaginary steel mill in S.E. Iowa is tied to Trump-Russia too since Putin owns the Russian Rosneft Oil Company, and Rosneft owns Essar Group, and the Essar Group owns Mesabi Metalics who Trump claims is building the plant.
What say you now, @MillerMeeks?
A Russian energy giant secretly financed a US gas project in Alaska, while that same project was being discussed by Putin with Witkoff and Kushner as part of talks supposedly aimed at ending Russia’s war in Ukraine.
The US company’s CEO resigned after discovering the Russian money.

Even MORE fraud and corruption coming from the Trump Oval Office, @JDVance.
How about the @WHFraudTF gets off their collective asses and investigates this?
This is C-O-R-R-U-P-T-I-O-N.
Remember World Liberty Financial? The Trump family crypto venture that’s generated more than $550 million for Trump while in office, run by the son of his Middle East envoy, and nearly half-owned by UAE-linked investors?
The Trump family crypto company now wants to become a bank.
The regulator deciding whether to approve it is run by a Trump appointee, who Trump can fire.
And if it gets approved, Trump’s family business stands to make more money.
The bank would hold the dollars backing its own stablecoin, so it could keep more of the profits instead of sharing them with another bank.
And here’s the kicker: it would get the credibility that comes with being a federally chartered bank without having government-backed deposit insurance. That means that there is no guarantee you get your money back if things go wrong.
The Trump family is raking in money and his Administration is setting the rules of the game. While Trump is getting richer, Americans are getting nothing.

And there's a big and well deserved fuck you to @VivekGRamaswamy!
Hey @ChuckGrassley!
Iowa Republicans have cut taxes on big businesses and the wealthy so deep they created a ONE BILLION dollar state budget deficit two years in a row.
THAT'S a doomsday of deficits and debt, you old fool.
Iowans are fed up. We're electing @RobSandIA!
.@GrassleyWorks in @DMRegister: "Don’t be fooled by slogans and soundbites. [@RobSandIA] is a déjà vu Democrat who will spend like a socialist and return Iowa to a doomsday of deficits and debt. His campaign has woven a make-believe fairy tale hoping voters fall for hocus pocus. Reality tells a different story." #IAGov

Trump was never sending Kushner and Witkoff to broker peace. He was having those two crooks sell our Alaskan public land and our Alaskan natural resources to the fucking Russians as if it were his.

If only CONGRESS and @SecRubio would have paid attention to the unqualified, unvetted, no security clearance, no Senate confirmation problems Kushner and Witkoff posed to the United States.
Where's @lisamurkowski now that Trump's giving away Alaska to Putin?
The silence from members of the GOP like @ChuckGrassley, @ZachNunn, @HinsonAshley, and @MillerMeeks should remind Iowans that Trump is the most corrupt, most dishonest, and most dangerous president in history.
They all believe he's above the law
Vote BLUE. Prove them wrong.
The @GOP must be thrilled that 11 days before elections, we learn that the Trump family secretly orchestrated a deal to allow Russians to drill Alaska in exchange for a $25 billion "investment" funneled through their proxies.
MAGA Republicans @ZachNunn and @AGIowa Brenna Bird both hired a woman to smear their opponents.
The trouble is, neither candidate vetted the woman and neither knew she was convicted of endangering her own kids by drunk driving.
Zunn and Bird have poor judgement. Vote blue.
Shellie Flockhart, a Dallas Center city councilwoman, called an Iowa Democratic House candidate “dangerous” for kids.
But Flockhart herself pleaded guilty to charges related to child endangerment and driving under the influence. wapo.st/4iDVEgv
Netanyahu is lying and attempting to provide cover for Trump so he can again cry about imaginary nuclear warheads when they jointly attack Iran the day after the US midterm elections.
Just wait. We haven't seen high gas and diesel prices yet.
🚨BREAKING: Benjamin Netanyahu is warning that Iran has restarted its nuclear program and intends to destroy Israel “within a short time,” just THREE DAYS before Israel’s election, after ordering the IDF and Mossad to pursue the overthrow of Iran’s government. Meanwhile, Israel’s own military chief has warned that renewed fighting could force Tuesday’s election to be postponed.
In addition to voting 7 times to keep the Iranian war going and causing diesel prices to rise to record levels, @HinsonAshley also refused to stop Trump from levying illegal tariffs on farm trading partners.
That vote raised the cost of farm inputs too!
Vote @turek4iowa!
This doesn't get enough attention, but please notice how MAGA Republicans have not made banning abortion nationwide part of their midterm election campaigns.
That ban didn't go away.
It's just that people like @ZachLahn don't like to bring it up because Iowa supports choice.

Jared Kushner is everything they accused Hunter Biden of being, but 100x worse.
And no one is shocked.
Why in the hell are the American taxpayers footing the bill for an attorney to represent Jared Kushner, @ChuckGrassley?
Kushner is NOT a government employee. He has NO Security Clearance and has NEVER been confirmed by the Senate.
This is theft of taxpayer funds.
Before publication, we sent Simon & Schuster a detailed 13-page letter responding to and categorically denying the extraordinary allegations made against my client, Jared Kushner, and challenging the total absence of supporting evidence.
Vanity Fair has now published an excerpt amplifying these false and defamatory allegations. We have seen no credible evidence substantiating any of these claims, and we question what independent verification Vanity Fair conducted before publishing them.
We intend to pursue legal action against those responsible and hold them accountable.
MAGA Republican @MillerMeeks is a flat out liar.
The tax cuts on tips and overtime are TEMPORARY and will be gone in 2027. Miller Meeks and her cronies intentionally wrote the legislation so these temporary cuts would be phased out after the midterm elections.
It's a scam.
This makes me wonder if @ZachLahn is also using campaign donations to pay his multiple private plane flights to and from his home in Kansas every week?

Iowa voters, don’t forget: Zach Lahn, Ashley Hinson, Brenna Bird and Joe Mitchell happily kissed Trump’s ass in Sioux City after he sided with the mother who enabled the rape of her 12-year-old daughter and stayed with the pedophile until he died.
The Iowa GOP, y’all.
"The mother is calling the daughter a terrible person and a liar. Everybody should be so lucky," Trump says in Iowa, explaining why he advised Ramaswamy to keep the Acton ad up. "So I told him leave it up and look upstairs and say thank you, God, very much. I appreciate it."
Trump continues to ignore how Acton's stepfather was indicted by a grand jury on charges of sexually abusing her. Says he "got a call from Vivek. He said, 'What would you recommend? Because I'm getting killed in the press.'"

Amy Acton slams Vivek Ramaswamy:
Mr. Ramaswamy will absolutely put the wants of billionaires over the needs of working families. He has said Medicaid and Medicare are mistakes, all while our hospitals are collapsing.
In Ohio, we work hard and we watch out for one another. My opponent just doesn't get it.
Mr. Ramaswamy, you are not just out of touch. You are out for yourself, and you are a danger to my state.
