Hinson did not sign the discharge petition that would have forced a vote on releasing the Epstein files much earlier.
I voted to release the Epstein files and have spent years working across the aisle to protect survivors of sexual abuse.
Men like Epstein, who hurt children, they’ll have to answer to God. But men who lie about it to win an election, they’ll have to answer to you.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Ashley Hinson fought to block the release of the Epstein files.

1. AI may not injure a human or, through inaction, allow one to come to harm.
2. AI must obey the orders given it by humans except where such would conflict with the 1st Law.
3. AI must protect its own existence as long as such does not conflict with the 1st or 2nd Law.

Washington, Iowa, pop 7300, had over 150 people show up to rally. Continual honks in solidarity, a brass band, and potluck lunch and treats. It was a great time! #NoKings

I expect every Republican who was outraged at people for celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death to immediately condemn Trump for saying “I’m glad he’s dead” about Robert Mueller. This is disgusting.

Dear Christian,
Undocumented immigrants can’t vote. It is a crime that results in prison and/or deportation.
Only 68 instances of this has happened in the last 40 years, by the Heritage Foundation’s own report.
Saying tons of undocumented immigrants are voting is a lie.

This exchange just happened on the Senate floor.
Cornyn: “I don’t understand how the SAVE Act disenfranchises voters.”
Durbin: “Happy to explain. Driver’s licenses don’t qualify under the bill. 50% of Americans don’t have passports.”
Cornyn: “Why not just amend it?”
Durbin: “When’s the last time the Senate actually amended a bill?”
Silence.
The SAVE Act requires passport-level documentation to register to vote.
50% of Americans don’t have a passport.
The people least likely to have passports: the elderly, the poor, rural Americans, young first-time voters.
The people most likely to have passports: wealthy Americans.
This is not voter protection.
This is voter selection.
And when a senator suggested fixing it — his own colleague couldn’t name the last time the Senate amended anything.
That’s the Senate in 2026.

Trump: “It was July 4th of last year, when flood waters tore through a girl’s summer camp in Central Texas. One of the worse things I’ve ever seen. I was there.”
Fact check: Trump was not there. He was throwing a party on the White House South Lawn while children were missing.

Border Patrol dump blind refugee 5 miles away from home—he was found dead on the street.
Officers dropped him off in front of a donut shop—didn't notify his lawyer or family he was even released.
When reported missing—local police said he was in ICE custody and stopped looking for him.
Nurul Amin Shah Alam is 56 years old, nearly blind, spoke no English, and dealt with serious medical conditions.
He was left to die alone—abandoned in the year's worst winter storm on the streets of Buffalo, New York.

The amended school funding bill passed the Senate today by a vote of 27-20. For Iowa's public schools, it will mean budget cuts, teacher lay-offs, and inadequate support for hundreds of thousands of Iowa kids.

It brings me no joy to say this but given the presidents shocking announcement that the Supreme Court is compromised by foreign interests, the next president will have no choice but to replace all 9 members with new
justices who have no foreign entanglements.

In other words, Iowa Republicans recognize that Iowa is very much in play for Dems in 2026.

It’s important that you understand what happened last night.
Last night, Stephen Colbert interviewed Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, a candidate who, by all accounts, is on track in the polls to flip Texas blue.
In response, Trump’s FCC reportedly threatened CBS if the interview aired.
CBS caved and pulled the segment, citing “financial reasons.”
In modern American history, no president has been more hostile to free speech than Donald Trump.
But censorship always backfires.
Here’s the full segment Trump didn’t want you to see.

🚨 BREAKING: At Trump’s ICE detention camp in Dilley, Texas, agents are reportedly raiding family dormitories to confiscate children’s letters after they exposed abuse and neglect.
Kids wrote about fear, depression, and being denied school.
Instead of fixing the conditions, authorities are trying to silence them.
Raiding children’s letters.

Watch as MAGA loudmouth Randy Fine illegally casts votes for other members of the Florida House of Reps.
This is the same guy preaching to us about election integrity when he can’t even follow the rules himself.
He clearly looks around to make sure no one is watching, then rolls around to hastily press each vote button.

🚨 RFK Jr. just said: “I’m not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off toilet seats.”
This is a man running public health policy.
Meet your wellness czar: reckless, proud of it, and bragging on camera.
RESIGN.

This is not enough. We’re spending $350M on an unaccountable private school voucher program while constitutionally underfunding our public schools. Iowa kids deserve better. Accountability and transparency now. who13.com/news/politics/iowa…

🚨 WATCH THIS.
Newly released body cam shows Border Patrol agents deliberately steering into Marimar Martinez — an American teacher — before shooting her 5 times.
DHS falsely claimed she “ambushed” them.
Kash Patel amplified the lie.
Prosecutors later dropped the case.
Texts show agents celebrated: “Good shooting.”
This was a cover-up.
