Iowa House Rep D38., Business Owner, Licensed & Ordained C&MA Pastor. I love thinking out loud with others, even those who disagree, just not the inappropriate.
I cannot support Donald Trump in the Iowa Caucus.
1.He does not have the CHARACTER we need.
2.He didn’t follow-through on his promises and therefore lacks the necessary COMPETENCY I’m looking for in a President.
3.He lacks the necessary CHEMISTRY with others. Presidents must…
As many of you have become aware, last week a display was erected at the Iowa Capitol by the Satanic Temple of Iowa. As I have responded to concerns from Iowans about the display, I wanted to share with you how the display came to be and my response.

After watching the debate last night between Gov
@RonDeSantis
and Gov Gavin Newsom, I’m left with this question. Of all the Republican candidates, President Trump included, which could have done as well as DeSantis? I can’t see any other candidate effectively bringing the…
It’s really not that radical. I don’t want the government dictating, approving, or regulating religious expression. I would rather have an evil blasphemous display,or no display at all, than have the state dictate what they think is appropriate.

If the government picks and chooses religious expressions, someday they will use it against Christian expressions. We are not a theocracy. I would rather have no displays than government selecting religions. The power of Christianity is Christ that lives in us. Not having…
I’m shocked you are willing to give up your freedom of religious expression to the government. I’m shocked you don’t believe in freedom of speech. The display offends me as a Christian. But I find your sacrifice of freedom for governmental control astounding. But of…
NEW: Trump says he will compromise with Democrats on abortion so that they’re nice to him: “Both sides are going to like me.”
Then he says it’s “a terrible thing” babies with heartbeats are protected in Iowa, Florida, and South Carolina.

Nothing says unhinged, recreational rage like attacking a mother for referencing her children. The minute we shrug off these attacks as the new normal, it will become the new normal. We should demand more from politicians and pundits alike.
Dear President Trump, polls are not elections, primaries, or caucuses. If they were, you would have lost your first election. Please trust the voters. The last thing we need is some unelected group deciding the nominee. I thought you were against such things!
Iowa Republicans, we are united in our goal to defeat Joe Biden. As we approach Caucus Day, January 15th, let’s work to answer these 11 questions.
1.Who can serve 8 years, cementing in a greater opportunity to appoint additional Supreme Court Justices, drain the swamp, & secure…
@JackPosobiec
When the government teams up with private companies to suppress free speech, it becomes a violation of the First Amendment. The government can be voice to correct misinformation, but it cannot be a partner in suppressing it. FREEDOM MATTERS!
@RonDeSantis
is coming to Jasper County…his 99th county. He gets the importance of connecting with everyday Iowans to hear their stories and answer their questions. He is willing to put in the work to earn Iowa’s vote!

Iowa, the caucuses are less than 2 months away. Have you made up your mind? We all agree that Joe Biden and his destructive agenda need to be defeated. Who are you supporting and why? For me it’s Ron DeSantis. I like his vision for America and his established record of getting…

Caucuses are about discussion, disagreement, and choosing. We support that process as conservatives and Republicans. When the process is done, we rally around the choice. I’m disappointed you don’t support this process. This is what makes America great.
He has shared his vision, listened to our stories, and answered our questions. Now is the time for us to do our part. Start those discussions with our neighbors, share why we support
@RonDeSantis
and get ready to caucus Jan 15th.
We love having you come to Jasper County…to Newton. We look forward to hearing your vision for America and sharing our stories with you! That’s what we love about being in Iowa. Thank you for your investment in the process and not shortcutting it. We want to hear from you,…

Nope. Didn’t build the wall. Didn’t get Mexico to pay for it. Called the heart bill tragic. Caved and ran huge deficits. Allowed election laws to be loosened.
It’s Caucus season in Iowa. It is extremely important to have these discussions about the candidates. It’s a responsibility taken seriously. Supported Trump in the past. Won’t support him in the caucus. We no longer align on core issues.

When government and private companies work together to censor speech it is a violation of free speech. We need to challenge any controlling of speech by the government. People should be going nuts over this.

@NikkiHaley
ends her remarks with a catered note to granite state voters —
“You know, Iowa starts it. You know that you correct it … and then my sweet state of South Carolina brings it home.”
See everyone at the Thunderdome on Saturday!
“DeSantis is set to complete his own Iowa tour on Dec. 2 with an event at the "Thunderdome" wedding venue in Newton”
This is a disgusting statement. I continue to be disappointed. “Poisoning the blood of our country”…really!!! He didn’t just say it once. He doubled down. It is ugly, horrible, and unacceptable.
In Waterloo tonight, Trump repeated his line about non-white migrants "destroying the blood of country." Trump also said his remarks should not be compared to similar remarks by Adolf Hitler because he didn't read "Mein Kampf," Hitler's biographical political manifesto.
Thank you, Jasper County, for hosting our 99th Iowa county rally!

Callous disregard for a man in distress. They had a responsibility to check his well-being, render aid, and provide care. This is at least manslaughter. He pleeded. He looked in distress. The officers had a responsibility.
