THERE WAS A TIME when saying or hearing the word "Iowa" didn't make me want to spit on the ground, that was back when Iowa used to send the like of Tom Harkin to the Senate. That was a long time ago, now. Now it sends the like of Joni Ernst and Chuck Grassley to the Senate along with four Republican-fascists in the House. Added to that has been such 19th century bull shit as the Iowa Caucus.
While I have despised some of the others, Ernst, the former Nazi enthusiast House member, Steve King. etc. There is no one who mixes personal and political sleaziness with sanctimony and pompous piety like the vile Chuck Grassley. He has outdone himself in his role as the chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee. His role in the Republian-fascist judge making assembly line has been as bad as any of the tales of Congressional corruption from the filthiest of periods in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Here's what he's been up to this week, as recounted by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse. Note the obvious collusion and coordination of the Trump regime, the Republican-fascists in the Senate AND THE ASSEMBLY LINE TRUMP JUDGES ALREADY PUT ON THE BENCH BY GRASSLEY AND HIS CORRUPT, ANTI-DEMOCRATIC, ANTI-DEMOCRACY PARTY.
As for Iowa, I hope it goes bankrupt. I hope to hear FAFO wailing and gnashing of teeth from them as they reap what they've sown. It's the only thing that will teach the majority of selfish, sanctimonious and greedy Republicans there anything. I don't trust any lessons learned to last past one election cycle. I won't bother trying to appeal to them on any grounds higher than self-interest, on anyone who is a Republican in 2025. I've stopped wasting my time on their better angels, maybe those angels have been corrupted by them or maybe they've fled to preserve their virtue.
