Polk County GOP passes resolution regarding Rep. Lohse’s by G.C. Stevens



Polk County GOP passes a resolution regarding Rep. Lohse’s vote against bill removing gender identity from civil rights code.

Last month, the Polk County Republican Central Committee voted 43-37 to adopt a resolution signaling its frustration with State Rep. Brian Lohse. The measure took issue with Lohse’s opposition to House File 583, a bill that stripped gender identity from Iowa’s Civil Rights Code.
The resolution also slammed an amendment Lohse proposed, accusing it of deceiving fellow Republican lawmakers about its purpose and effects. This, it claimed, sparked confusion, forced colleagues to backtrack, and led to public clarifications from caucus members.
It further argued that Lohse’s vote revealed a “troubling trend” of straying from the party’s core values and platform, weakening unity, tarnishing the party’s image, and undermining citizen protections.
“Therefore, be it resolved, that the Polk County Central Committee officially condemns Rep. Brian Lohse for actions that clash with the Republican principles and values outlined in our party platform,” the resolution declared. “We call on Rep. Lohse to ensure his future votes and statements openly reflect the priorities of the Iowa Republican Party and its voters.”

Original story from

THE IOWA STANDARD

 "The Polk Co Leadership is sandbagging this. They spent 40 minutes trying to prevent us from correcting the minutes to say this rebuke was "Public". They hid it, with a non searchable link on the website. And abused parliamentary procedures to confuse the body on the vote.

They never released it to the media or anyone. 

I spoke out and asked if they were doing this on purpose. And they screamed Out of Order. So, it is now "out of order to question the elected leadership in a meeting of the body?" Tyrants.

-Craig Bergman,  Precinct Chair since 1987

Grok Talks Iowa Politics: By G.C. Stevens

Image
  We asked Grok to assess three Iowa Republican Gubernatorial Candidates: Brad Sherman, Eddie Andrews and Randy Feenstra.  This is what AI gathered from available content: Eddie Andrews, an Iowa State Representative and Republican candidate for governor , has a complex relationship with Trump and MAGA ideals, based on available information. As a Black Republican, Andrews has been associated with the Republican Party’s expansion in Iowa during a period when Donald Trump won the state decisively in 2020, suggesting some level of alignment with the broader Republican base that supports Trump. However, there is no direct evidence in the provided sources that explicitly states Andrews fully embraces or identifies with the MAGA movement or its core ideologies, such as nativism, economic protectionism, or anti-immigration policies, as outlined in descriptions of MAGA. Andrews’ campaign and legislative record emphasize priorities like mental health, education, parental rights, and fis...

Grok updates its view on the Race for Iowa Governor

Image
  The 2026 Iowa gubernatorial election is an open seat race. Incumbent Republican Governor Kim Reynolds is not seeking re-election. The primary is scheduled for June 2, 2026, with the general election on November 3, 2026. Current Landscape (as of early May 2026) Democrats: State Auditor Rob Sand is running unopposed in the primary and is the presumptive nominee. He has cleared the Democratic field and enters the general election with significant momentum for a Democrat in a state that has trended Republican. Republicans: A crowded five-candidate primary. U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (IA-4) is the clear frontrunner and is expected to win the nomination, though he faces some intra-party criticism. Other candidates include State Rep. Eddie Andrews, farmer/businessman Zach Lahn, former state Rep. Brad Sherman, and former Dept. of Administrative Services Director Adam Steen. Prediction markets and betting (e.g., Polymarket) give Feenstra a strong lead (around 75%) in the GOP primary. Head-t...

Area 51 UFO recreated by x AI Grok 4.3 I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. 2 John 1:7 Headlines, stories from online resources, podcasters and mainstream news outlets, have been talking about the Trump administrations release of once classified documents concerning UFO's and UAP's (Unidentified Fly Objects and Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena).  The author of this article has been tracking the UFO phenomena for over fifty years. That interest started with learning of the story of the abduction of Barney and Betty Hill in 1961. The 1940's to 1960s was not just the era in which human flight stepped into the future, when the sound barrier was broken, when the Nasa space program began and when men (allegedly) walked on the walked on the moon, it was also when the first "UFO flap" occurred and when a private pilot by the name of K...
