The GOP is trampling free speech. I guess that is what Nazis do.

Speaker Pat Grassley's post (Is this Chuck's grandkid?)
I have been made aware of social media posts by teachers in Iowa praising the assassination of Charlie Kirk. This hate has no place in our state, and certainly does not belong in our schools.

My expectation is that each school district will follow the proper protocol to investigate these posts and reprimand the posters appropriately. Individuals with this depravity cannot continue to hold a position with any level of influence over our children.

If appropriate action is not taken, you can trust that the Iowa House Government Oversight Committee will address this issue and take action to root out this hate from our schools.


Local control of the schools, until the republicans state wide take action. Small government, ha ha ha.
