LJ Phillips has doubled up his rushing yards on the season with his performance today. He’s been awesome and looking like the player that played at South Dakota last year.

Preview of Medicare for All.
Government will dictate prices and then try to control supply by wielding control over hospital systems that employee 80% of physicians.
It will never work.
Price controls create shortages.
Medicare for All will absolutely make healthcare less accessible.
It's annual paycut season for doctors, brought to us by @CMSGov…
And, drumroll…it's a cut. Again.
-2.31% for most of the house of medicine in 2027 on the RVU conversion factor (to $32.63/RVU).
Adjusted for inflation, that's:
A one-year 4.7% decrease,
A 10-year cut of 32.6%,
A 20-year cut of 46%.
Yikes.
Thanks, @RobertKennedyJr.

On Saturday, after waiting 83 years, many of which were spent 8,000 miles away in the Philippines, the long-departed Fireman First Class Robert Glenn Shove got to come home. And family members from around the country were there to welcome him.

🚨 JUST IN: Sen. Ron Johnson drops this CHILLING LINE
"If they win the White House in 2029, it's game over. We know what they will do. They will nuke the filibuster. They'll turn D.C., Puerto Rico to states, PACK the Supreme Court. They'll nationalize elections, automatic registration and mail-in balloting. It'll be like VENEZUELA!"
"Democrats' game plan has always been to turn America into a one-party nation."
The ONLY way out now is a big win in 2028.
At BEST we can get a 50-50 Senate with a GOP POTUS and VP. For that, we need NEW HAMPSHIRE

As always, great work from @MasonDockter in this week's "From The Archives" column. Some of the illustrations/photos he finds for these are incredible.
A Sioux City man who liked to play jokes, James P. Guider, inadvertently killed himself with a joke early one morning in November 1901. As he and a cousin were getting ready to go to work, the cousin took a bottle from a cupboard ...

Still trying to catch up on what happened in Tuesday's elections? We put together a collection about Iowa's 4th District, South Sioux City mayor, South Sioux City's bond issue, Sergeant Bluff's bond issue, Woodbury County Board and Attorney races and more. siouxcityjournal.com/news/lo…
All 4 counties, including 2 in Northwest Iowa, are home to large meat processing plants that employ large numbers of Latinos.
Interesting - looks like some of the biggest shifts happened in Iowa counties with large Latino communities - Crawford County (Denison), Buena Vista (Storm Lake), Louisa (Columbus Junction) and Muscatine

They're going to go 0-10 the rest of the season?
It’s time to accept that the Vikings aren’t getting JT, he’s not getting traded, we’re finishing 6-11, Jettas is gone, we’re gonna be a poverty franchise for eternity. Team’s getting sold, moving to London, we’ll be the London Lickenwursts. It’s absolutely over. This ownership😒

I'd expect him to sign for that reason alone, legacy building in his mind.
BREAKING: Republicans are concerned Donald Trump will sign Democratic bills next year adding D.C. and Puerto Rico as states because he can’t run again so he doesn’t care if Democrats get 4 more senators, but he wants to get credit for making the US map bigger.

Not sure I believe that. Did anyone ask him which Republican(s) he voted for? Lower level, perhaps uncontested race, like county supervisor?
#IowaSenate
NYT: Josh Turek (D) says he didn’t vote for a straight Democratic ticket when he cast his ballot today.

Quite a Sioux City Council meeting tonight
During Monday's council meeting, Mayor Pro Tem Julie Schoenherr said, "I don't know where we're coming up with $183 million savings that was posted by one of the media outlets. We're not having $183 million savings."
