Warren Nutter, 19, reads a letter from his mother while on death row (1957). He was the second-youngest man sentenced to death in Iowa. After his death sentence was commuted to life in prison, he served 65 years at the Iowa State Penitentiary, becoming the longest-serving inmate in Iowa history.

We really need to have a conversation about affordability at the Fair.

I went to the fair with my son last night. Between the $16 ticket to get in, $9 pork chop on a stick, $8 corn dog, and the “credits“ for the rides, it was pretty pricey for someone with a little bit of disposable income, let alone families that are struggling.

I understand that everything is expensive now, and that people should make money on products and services provided. But what used to be a universal experience I fear is now more and more akin to an NFL game where it’s just become the norm that everything’s going to cost so much that fewer people will be going.

"Diet" Pepsi? with your fried pork tenderloin and macaroni salad? You're not fooling anyone Iowa.

Note, this is according to instacart, so it's the people who are too lazy to drive to the store and buy a real soda.

Many stations in Davenport jumped 50-60 cents. Moline stations still 4.19ish. Never seen this in 30 years.

Consequences | Unleaded gas is $4.19 today around the metro.....

As predicted, the 2nd week state fair people are going to have an even more expensive time while the fake out of state candidate tells them everything is fine.

Ashley tells them everything is fine, Meeks says everything is fine, and Chuck takes selfies with a guy who apparently loves sluts.

To add to that, Hegseth is doing some kind of grindr event, Top Nunn while our people on ships are out of toilet paper and food, and RFK is shopping Scheels with fake Iowa candidate guy to go catch and eat some cancer fish from our polluted waters.

Are we great yet?

Measles? Didn't we defeat measles?

It's difficult enough taking on all the new challenges that arise, much less going back and re-fighting the battles we already won. The GOP and their inept, incompetent shit show.
