In the...
Will IDP Keep Its Stolen Money?
Back in December, The Des Moines Register did some digging. They reported a whopping $250,000 contribution from Nishnad Singh to the Iowa Democratic Party. $250,000 is a massive contribution from a west coast tech bro to a state party with no competitive statewide...
Rob Sand Kills Laura Belin’s Open Records Lawsuit
To repeat: Sand knew about the emails, was asked by Lathrop for the emails, and refused to produce them.

The spokesperson for the group, R.G. Schwarm, spent the better part of an hour talking about how Iowans want more competition in the electricity markets but then he went on to say his group wasn’t actually pushing for competition for Iowans.

Sonya Heitshusen asks court to ban press from her preliminary hearing
