President Trump: The NEW one and only politics thread

Senator Mark Chelgren Aims To Purge Democrats From Iowa Universities - Iowa Starting Line

"Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Democratic party?"

 

More like it took his getting to that point for him to be considered over the line.

 

That would be an outstanding way to turn degrees from U of I, ISU, etc. into high density toilet paper, since they'd get their accreditation pulled about 30 seconds after this became law.

 

Glad somebody is paying attention.

 

You gain a lot of cred in Republican state legislative circles by proposing laws that show you hate learning, not to mention the Constitution and your own country. These people are not misguided, they are vicious nasty scum and deserve to be treated as such by decent people.

 

Way too good looking for the comparison to work.

LOL.

 

Oh, Dickie... won't see him no more.

 

How much cred do you gain for actually reading?

 

Iowa?

"Republicans have mistaken the election for a mandate to do everything they've talked about for 20 years," said Gronstal, who held together a thin Democratic majority for more than a decade, until his defeat in November. "We have a model for how that's worked. It's Kansas."

After Republican Gov. Sam Brownback took office in Kansas in 2011, huge GOP legislative majorities enacted a raft of social legislation and deep tax cuts. Though Brownback proclaimed Kansas as a model for the rest of the nation, it has struggled to balance its budget and has found itself repeatedly in court over its policies. And Friday, the GOP-controlled Senate approved a bill that would raise $1 billion by rolling back key pieces of Brownback's agenda.

Known for political temperance, Iowa moves sharply right

 

Honest?

 

3 months ... LOL.

 

Not surprising but pretty scary reading.
