What in the actual…. SOME KIDS ONLY GET A DECENT MEAL WHILE AST SCHOOL. When school is out, then what???
Yet she’ll be parked in front of the tv touting her love of Jesus’s teachings and “pro life” stance!!
Hug a teacher today. They love their kids. They see kids grow up, make connections. Never in their wildest dreams would they think they have to take life saving measures. Overworked, understaffed, underpaid and underappreciated. Just let them know they are loved & appreciated
I am Blessed and I am Thankful. I just got my Booster Vaccination shot. My arm is a little sore but no pain. I Pity Pain! Thanks again to all the Doctors and Nurses…

The state of Iowa will not apply for a Summer 2024 EBT program to feed kids.
In a release, Gov. Kim Reynolds said the program isn't sustainable and "an EBT card does nothing to promote nutrition at a time when childhood obesity has become an epidemic."
Ron DeSantis having a political rally in a church is all I need to know that I’m a hard pass on that. We’re doing political rallies in churches now? Time to revoke that tax exempt status for all of them.
Coaches are real people, with families and financial responsibilities just like you and I. Celebrating people losing their jobs, especially during the holidays is just not cool. We all know a change was needed, doesn't mean you have to dunk on them on their way out the door.
I read the FB post from the daughter of Dan Marbuger. She showed thankfulness to the 1st responders, to the doctors and sympathy for the other victims and also for the shooter and the shooters family. Others are hurting, she’s showing grace. We all could take a page from that.
One statement is from the shooting at East High School and one is from last nights shooting in Ames. Why are there two completely different tones in this statement. Why no prayers and empathy for the East High Shooting. This is why we are divided.
Rival or not, won’t be the same when this guy retires. Has been a class act in regards to his charity and a hell of a coach. Cares about his players. The state has two of the best.
I told Kirk Ferentz that a lot of Iowa’s offensive players credited him for keeping the offense together. I asked him how they’ve overcome all the injuries, criticism on the outside and how he kept the team together. This was him before he gave his response:
Another unpopular opinion but if you feel the need to celebrate Grill not being on this team, please move on. Whatever happened, kid shouldn’t be shittalked heading out the door. Whatever hes going through, hope u land on ur feet kid. Thanks for always wanting to be a cyclone.
All jokes aside, she knows the controversy with that song. She had a choice to tweet this or to double down and try to upset people. That is her M.O. It is so easy to be kind and not divisive.

Holy shit dude. Do you know the man in this picture just died yesterday after battling illnesses and health problems since he was 2 years old?
I never ever remember Tom Miller constantly tweeting about the opposition party or administration. You’re job is to uphold the laws of Iowa. Do your job.
First, gas stoves—now, refrigerators. Biden’s latest power grab is coming to a kitchen near you. While Americans struggle to make ends meet, Biden is raising the costs of our home appliances to serve his radical climate change agenda.
All Hawk fans who are trashing or making fun of this. I’ll make a bet. If Purdy doesn’t make the active roster I’ll donate $100 to the Iowa Children’s hospital, but anyone that makes that bet has to make the same donation to

@RexChapman
Rex thank you for showing this video. It helps bring awareness to Williams Symdrome. My twin stepsons have this same condition and are wonderful young men. Real true friends are hard for them to keep due to their disability so this makes my heart burst. Thank you!!
I never post about this because it’s not my story, it’s Tyler’s, but the narrative that trans is some sort of mental illness just really upsets me . So I want to introduce you to Taylor and Tyler. I love them both. Taylor grew up as a woman. 1/6 A Thread
God is great. Scope came back with no concerns for cancer. Do have a few things I need to watch and workout. Weight is always an issue. Best outcome I could get!!!
Brenna Bird flying to NYC to sit in Trumps trial and then speak afterwards is the biggest “giving the bird” finger to taxpayers. You want to campaign for that guy fine, but don’t do it under the capacity as your duties of the attorney general and act like that’s what Iowa wants.
This makes me irrationally angry. So many good programs that could help people, school systems, mental health facilities, assisted living for seniors, I could go on and on. All so she can claim she did everyone a favor and act like a queen.
Inbox: Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds announces the state will close FY23 w/ $1.83B budget surplus, $902M in reserves & $2.74B in Taxpayer Relief Fund. “Some see a surplus as government not spending enough, but I view it as an over-collection from the hard-working men & women of Iowa."
I was offered an amazing job today to run my own Marketing Department for a an amazing software and IT company and I am ecstatic to be able to take this job and make it my own. I am so blessed. Thank you to everyone that has been so supportive.
I had esophageal cancer 4 years ago. I have been healthy ever since. 4 months ago, I have been experiencing some problems. All symptons that something isn't right. Monday I go in for a scope. The last scope found cancer. I wont lie & say I am not scared, but God is Great!
3years ago I was in colon prep and preparing for Esophageal cancer surgery and turning 47 and today I am celebrating my 50th birthday cancer free and celebrating g the greatest Cyclone football season ever! God is great and

4 years ago today I was on my final step of my journey. Today is my 51st birthday. 4 years ago today I was in an Iowa City hotel waiting for my cancer surgery. I didn't to spend my birthday the way I wanted. Today is my 4 year anniversary being cancer free
#ShipleyStrong
Today has been a day. My mom was taken to the ER st 3:30 am. She was in severe abdomen pain. After emergency surgery she is in ICU and a ventilator and we do not know what the future holds. All I know is my heart is breaking today.
For people to be upset that they don’t want the government to mandate their lives, they sure are lining up to mandate what they think you should have to do.

I can die a happy man now. Here is a pic of David celebrating with my son Joshua at Iowa States Victory day for special needs kids.
Gonna wake up tomorrow morning and still fight for what I think is right. I cannot believe that people like Todd Brady, working tirelessly to find vaccines can’t win an election and 89 year old out of touch, transgender scare tactics, & people living in fake apts can win.
Granted I admit I don’t watch the WNBA, but what in the world is going on with the hate for Clark. Like it’s worse now than when she was in college. Just let her play ball and figure it out. The amount of toxic shit going her way is wild to me.
Man it just pisses me off when media guys diss Purdy as being in the perfect system and if he was with another team maybe he wouldn’t be successful. SF had other QBs right? How come they aren’t slinging it around and killing it like Purdy if it’s such an easy system.
Utah State QB Spencer Petras “It is hard what’s going on right now, but we start fall camp in three weeks and we have all the horses to run the race and win the race”
I would do anything to have another embrace and kiss from my dad. I embrace and kiss my kids on the cheek to this day and they are in their 20s. There is zero wrong with this!
I wanted to thank everyone for all the kind words and direct messages about my mom. She’s the toughest lady I’ve ever met. She is off her ventilator. Her life isn’t going to be the same, but she’s still here. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤️❤️

If you are this guy, you’re a POS. Guy has taken this program to heights we haven’t seen. He doesn’t need some asshole chirping at him about his job. Guy stuck with us when problem were dangling millions in front of him. Now your gonna turn on him. Get bent.

Someone once asked me for the manager at my dads store, told him it was me, he then asked for the owner. I said sure, let me bring him out. Customer says to my dad, this kid needs to learn some customer service and manners. Dad says, “no shit, been telling him that for years”
New NCAA President (and former Governor of Massachusetts) Charlie Baker says he wants "consumer protections" around NIL, saying he's "gonna talk some with the folks in Washington."
Charles Barkley responded, as only he can.
I’ve kept this under wraps for a while in hoping it would
Get better but if I could get prayers for my mom, she is going in for serious surgery here shortly and she is pretty weak. I love you mom.
To my wife and any and all you teachers out there, be safe and thank you for being who you are, especially today with the threats out there. I honestly never thought I would have to worry about my wife and her safety at school.
2 years ago, I had my final post-cancer scan and was told I am completely healed. The doctor sat me down and said "I would never have told you this at the time, but after your first visit, after you left, I told my nurse.. I give that guy maybe a 5% chance of surviving. 1/2
I can’t even with this. Guess what lady, my wife and daughter love their kids and their job. They teach them math and science and language arts. I can’t even with this…
This woman praised Vivek for his plan to dissolve the US Department of Education.
She then asked if he would also get rid of teachers' unions because she says they aren't teaching kids the pledge of allegiance because they're so focused on CRT and gender issues.
Part of this struggle I’ve had is I feel like I lost the strong man I was that beat cancer . In the last few months I’ve cried due to sadness.
The last week I’ve rededicated to the gym. This morning, I cried, not sadness but because I think I found him again.
#ShipleyStrong
Do you know what I could use today? Something good to happen. I need something to break my way. I've been pretty quiet about it, but honestly. I am struggling right now. I don't say this for sympathy, just speaking it out because I believe in being honest.
I don’t care what side of the gun issue you are in, I think we call all agree that if you think Sandy Hook didn’t happen, that the parents are “actors”, you’re a complete ahole and need to rethink your life. Children died and parents grieved, you’re an asshole!
Jesus taught, “When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men … but when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your father who is unseen.” Matthew 6:5-8
A lot of you know about my step sons and having Williams Syndrome. Well they have been working really hard and will graduate this May and just got a letter they are accepted to DMACC Strive Academy for the fall. Move in late August. I am so damn proud of their hard work!
A billion dollar surplus and Gov Reynolds refuses to commit $3 million in state money to qualify for $30 million in Federal funds to support child care. We just re-elected someone who doesn't care about kids or parents

5 years ago today I was on my final step of my journey. Today is my 52nd birthday. 5 years ago I was sitting in an Iowa City hotel preparing for surgery. Don’t ever forget what God is capable of. 52 looks good on me, I love my life. Thank you God for giving me an amazing life!
This kid stuck to his commitment to a 2-22 team, new coach and new scheme. Worked to take us to a sweet 16. Now he has a chance to help his family and future. He owes us NOTHING. I for one will always love what he gave us and respect it!
I am beyond excited to announce that I have accepted a new position at an IT Solutions company here in Des Moines. I will be working back downtown, in a beautiful office doing what I love. Cannot wait to start. Thank you to everyone that has been so supportive lately.
What kind of a douchebag sits up all night and cues these videos up? Are you that insecure and mommy didn’t hug you enough that you can’t just let another fan base enjoy themselves. You need to get a life. Maybe move out of your moms basement. How’s that Walmart job going?
I just saw an ad against
@toddforiowa
claiming he was against tax breaks and other BS. This dude took his private time and created an app that helped SAVE LIVES by helping people find vaccine times. He’s a hero. What are we even doing with this stuff??
Pride month isn't designed to "shove" it in your face. Pride month is the time to make sure we let them know, they are just as important, accepted, loved, & respected the same way anyone else would want. I am proud that Tyler Lee Shipley is who he is. I am proud to be his father
As Mike signs off ESPN radio for the last time, our family wanted to say thank you to all of the loyal listeners who have joined in every morning over the last 22 years.
We could not be more proud of Mike as a man, father and professional . We love you Mike ❤️

All these things can be true:
Pissed we lost today✅
Rocco is a stud✅
Coaching staff made mistakes today✅
Coaching staff is also the best we’ve had in my lifetime✅
All Cyclone fans love this team and school, their passion for whatever take they have is valid✅
Bring on Bball
You measure a man by how he fights back. Nobody is gonna go through life without setbacks. You get up and keep moving forward take a punch and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done. Proud to call this guy my Quarterback!! Love this team
Brock Purdy throws three picks in The final 7 minutes as the Cyclones fall to Oklahoma State, 34-27. You could see the disappointment on Purdy’s face postgame.
Don’t expect an apology from Joe Biden, Randy Weingarten, or any Democrat who kept schools closed anytime soon. It's up to us to make sure we never do that to our kids again.
Drove to Maquoketa to see my mom. In the heart of Hawkeye country and she dresses like this and has to show me her collection of ISU hats. She’s the best Cyclone fan I know!!
At one point during the game I thought a lot about what Jack’s legacy means. How it shouldn’t be just one day. It should continue to be remembered why he came to ISU. He came to make a better life not only for himself but to help others to have a better life. .
Or…. Hear me out here, when a state doesn’t think that a Dr is the best resource for a person to decide what to do with their bodies, maybe just maybe that’s the cause?
Iowa is in desperate need of more OBGYNs and physicians, but our current laws make us uncompetitive.
To increase our health care workforce and ensure access to quality care statewide, we need reform NOW!
Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) says she's targeting federal employees who work from home, calling to lower their wages: "Where are all of those workers? ... We're coming after you."
4 years ago I wouldn’t not have been up till 11:30 to watch a women’s basketball game, tonite I’m inspired by the great young women who wear Cyclones on their jerseys!! Ty

According to OpenSecrets, a nonpartisan nonprofit who tracks money in U.S. politics, in 2020 the largest donation to Priorities for Iowa, $750,000, came from billionaire hedge fund manager Kenneth C Griffin, founder of Miami-based hedge fund Citadel LLC.
I am excited to announce that I will be starting my new position as Marketing Coordinator starting Feb 14th. I cannot wait to get back into the industry and work that I love. It's been a work in progress but excited for this new opportunity in 2024!!
