Christina Bohannan lost by 800 votes last time. 800. Meanwhile her dad’s own insurance company canceled him the moment he got sick, and Washington shrugged. This time we close that gap, we flip IA-01, and we do it for every family insurance companies threw away. #BlueWaveIn90Days #USDemocracy
Former Republican Senator Jeff Flake just endorsed Democrat Jon Ossoff. Flake says he is still a conservative Republican, but character matters more than party. Flake warns Mike Collins would be a rubber stamp for Donald Trump. #GASen #CharacterMatters

A hatred of data centers is uniting Texans against corporate tax breaks
Texans unite like never before against data centers and their tax exemptions, writes columnist Chris Tomlinson.

This rings true because this is the behavior we see day in day out, and have for 11 years now. We don't need an expert character witness to tell us this is true. That is him, those are the things he obsesses about, Dr. Fauci is dead on in his assessment.
