Some Iowa farmers are wondering how to protect their employees without legal status in the U.S.; paid parking could be coming to busy Okoboji fun spots; Rob Sand campaigning in Iowa; Job Corps programs in Iowa.
A state lawmaker from northwest Iowa has died of pancreatic cancer. State auditor and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Rob Sand kicks off a 100 town hall tour. The first GOP candidate has entered the race for Iowa's 4th congressional district, and IPR health reporter Natalie Krebs reports on research into concerns about environmental causes of cancer in Iowa.
In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson cover a wide-ranging discussion —from Iowa's economic development subsidies to escalating foreign tensions. The show opens with a nod to Abraham Lincoln (in bust form) and an editorial comment on questionable taxpayer-funded art installations near ITR's headquarters.The episode shifts to foreign policy, where the hosts weigh in on the U.S. airstrikes against Iranian nuclear facilities and the surprising ceasefire that followed. Chris and John explore President Trump's foreign policy identity—highlighting his balance between non-interventionism and strength projection—and the larger conservative debate over military action and national interest.Returning to Iowa, the conversation zeroes in on three recent state economic development awards, questioning whether taxpayer incentives actually create new growth or simply reward companies that would expand anyway. The hosts break down subsidies for projects in central Iowa, and ask whether property tax burdens are being made worse by carving out special deals for large employers while small businesses struggle.They close by highlighting a story from Iowa's gubernatorial race: Democratic frontrunner Rob Sand's public stance against men in women's sports, a move that's creating friction with his party's progressive base. As John notes, the left's inability to engage in honest debate on this issue contrasts sharply with conservatives' internal discussions on foreign policy, spending, and taxes.

Chuck Todd opens with a blistering analysis of America's current political landscape, arguing that both major parties are fundamentally weak and surviving only through their duopoly of ballot access. He examines the potential for political realignment, questioning whether MAGA and establishment Republicans might fracture and if figures like Senator John Cornyn would fare better as independents. Chuck doesn't hold back on the Biden administration either, calling out what he sees as selfishness from the Bidens and criticizing aides who failed to report the President's decline sooner, suggesting cabinet secretaries will need to answer for what he terms a "cover up."Then he's joined by Rob Sand, Democratic candidate for governor of Iowa, who discusses his record of uncovering government waste and his vision for the state. Sand outlines his bipartisan approach to governance and delivers a sharp critique of Iowa's school voucher program, arguing it lacks transparency and has allowed private schools to raise tuition while turning away disabled students. The conversation covers Iowa's political shift, education policy, and whether Democrats should restore Iowa's first-in-the-nation primary status. The episode concludes with "Ask Chuck," where Todd answers listener questions on topics ranging from the theoretical "Limbaugh effect" in Obama's election to the practicality of expanding the House of Representatives, and even touches on the NBA draft lottery's impact on Texas basketball teams.Timeline:00:00 Introduction01:30 Both the Republican and Democratic parties are very weak03:00 Without the duopoly of ballot access, one of the two parties would have disappeared04:30 Interparty splits and the potential for independents?06:00 Could MAGA vs establishment factions fracture in the GOP?07:30 Would John Cornyn be better served running as an independent in Texas?11:10 Republicans have too many crowded primaries in Senate races12:30 Both parties brands are broken14:30 The Bidens have been selfish16:30 Shame on the anonymous aides who didn't report Biden's decline sooner17:45 Biden's aides pushed back publicly and privately before he stepped down18:20 Biden's cabinet secretaries will have to answer for the cover up21:10 The DNC drama surrounding David Hogg23:55 The DNC looks ridiculous right now26:15 Rob Sand joins the Chuck ToddCast 26:45 Why run for governor of Iowa? 29:30 Rob found a record amount of waste and abuse in Iowa government 30:15 Did you think about running as an independent? 34:35 If you win, is it a victory for Democrats or for independents? 36:45 Rob would appoint a bipartisan cabinet 37:30 The school voucher program in Iowa isn't transparent 38:45 The public school vouchers can be audited, the private ones can't 41:15 Iowa's public schools are falling behind 43:00 Private schools can turn away disabled students 44:15 Private schools just raised tuition after voucher program rollout 45:30 What's the plan to improve public schools in Iowa? 49:10 What are some Kim Reynolds policies he would keep? 51:05 Has Iowa shifted right, or is it a Trump phenomenon? 53:15 Should Democrats make Iowa their first primary state again? 56:30 Pete Buttigieg broke through in Iowa 59:00 Lottery scam in Iowa 1:03:00 What hurts Iowa more; tariffs or the USAID contracts being terminated? 1:05:15 Does he expect a primary challenger?1:06:05 Chuck's thoughts on Rob Sand interview 1:06:30 Ask Chuck 1:06:35 Has there ever been a study on the "Limbaugh effect", encouraging Democrats to vote for Obama? 1:11:35 If you doubled the size of the House, would there be physical space constraints? 1:14:15 Would a third party like the forward party focused on a singular issue be effective? 1:17:05 The NBA draft lottery ensured that all three Texas teams will be great(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a bribe! President Trump, just before setting off on a tour of the Gulf states, announces that he plans to accept a $400 million luxury jet from the Qatari royal family — one of the largest and most brazenly corrupt gifts ever received by an American president. House Republicans finally release details of their proposed cuts to Medicaid, but will their plan to cut the health insurance of 9 million Americans find enough support from moderates and hard-liners? And, of course, there's more tariff news, with the administration announcing a 90-day-pause (kind of) in the trade war with China. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy talk about Democrats' response to Trump's shiny new bribe, Stephen Miller's recent attacks on habeas corpus, and why the president's new drug pricing executive order isn't a serious solution to lower the cost of prescription drugs. Then, Tommy sits down with his doppelgänger, Rob Sand, to talk about Sand's campaign for Iowa governor.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Iowa State Auditor Rob Sand joins the show to discuss Senate File 478, a law that limits access to key audit information. He shares concrete examples of how it has affected oversight and explains why audit professionals across the country are raising concerns.
This time, John does a deep dive into Trump's escalating defiance of court orders, attacks on judges, and controversial deportations, while also examining the role of key figures like Chuck Schumer in defending democratic institutions. He also discusses the injustice of the nearly 250 Venezuelans alleged by the White House to be gang members that have been deported to a supermax prison in El Salvador, even as a US judge blocked the removals. Then, he welcomes back Professor Corey Brettschneider for legal analysis on current news including Justice John Robert's rebuking Trump's call to impeach federal judges who rule against him and the illegal arrest and detention of activist Mahmoud Khalil as well as the continued assaults on universities for DEI practices. Next, he interviews Rob Sand who is Iowa's 33rd State Auditor about corruption in his state. He was elected in 2018 after serving seven years as Iowa's chief public corruption prosecutor in the Iowa Attorney General's Office. There, he led the discovery and prosecution of the largest lottery rigging scheme in American history. He also prosecuted the Iowa Film Office Tax Credit scandal, the only criminal prosecution related to a global Ponzi Scheme, as well as dozens of other financial crimes. Then lastly, John jokes with "Comedy Daddy" Keith Price and they chat with the Evil Army of the Night about pop culture and the latest fraudulent conduct by the GOP and their golden leader "Man Baby".See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hey, everybody, this is the TCP, and I am John Stamp. First off did you guys see the artwork Jeff Hayes at Plasmafire graphics worked up for Wraith of Sheltermount. Wraith was my experiment in writing a fantasy novel. From the start, Wraith was going to be an indie title. I wanted to do the whole thing myself, so I hired the editor, and did the cover myself. I thought I did pretty good on the cover and it tested well but when I started working with Jeff to upgrade the covers on my other titles, I knew I had to do Wraith. And I was right, he knocked it out of the park. I'll include it in the show notes. I already put it up on the socials. Second, continuing my wholehearted thanks for your support for Brother's Keeper, just released on Audible. Thank you for all the comments and compliments you've sent. I want to know what you want to hear next, Where Angels Sing, Spoilers #2, Wraith of Sheltermount, or Shattered Circle. Leave a comment. Last, Wild Blue Press still has Blood Red Ivory on sale for $2.99. If you haven't read one of my novels yet, Blood Red Ivory is a great place to start. Tonight, I'm talking to Rob Sands, Iowa's current State Auditor and true crime author. As Iowa's chief public corruption prosecutor, Rob uncovered the largest lottery rigging scheme in American history and detailed the case in his book, The Winning Ticket: Uncovering America's Biggest Lottery Scam. Both a story of small-town America and a true-crime saga about the largest lottery-rigging scheme in American history, The Winning Ticket follows the investigation all the way down the rabbit hole to uncover how one man was able to cheat the system, winning jackpots over $16 million. He went more than a decade without being caught—until Rob inherited the case. The Winning Ticket is an inside look at one of the most complicated yet seat-of-your-pants financial investigations and prosecutions in recent history. Just as remarkable as the crime are the real-life characters met along the way: an honest fireworks salesman, a hoodwinked FBI agent, a crooked Texas lawman, a shady attorney representing a Belizean trust, and, yes, Bigfoot hunters. That's correct, I said Bigfoot hunters. This was a fun interview. Find Rob on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram @robsandIA As always thanks to Crush Limbo for the music. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thatscriminaljs/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thatscriminaljs/support
Recap Iowa loss vs Ohio St, state auditor Rob Sand on Iowa lawsuit settlement update
The controversial settlement to a discrimination lawsuit involving members of the Iowa football team's coaching staff, and the best start for the Iowa baseball team since 1942 were both discussed in great detail on Wednesday's episode of the Hawk Fanatic radio show and podcast. Our first guest was Iowa state auditor Rob Sand, who is pushing for Iowa Athletic Director Gary Barta to be fired in the wake of a fourth discrimination settlement under Barta's watch. Sand, who is against taxpayer dollars being used to help pay for the $4.175 million settlement, comes on approximately 30 minutes into the two-hour podcast and his segment lasts for about 25 minutes. Heller comes on 90 minutes into the podcast and talks about his team's 10-1 start, which is its best start since 1942, and about the three-game series at Texas Tech this weekend.

Thursday, August 18th, 2022 Rob Sand is Iowa's State Auditor, which is the taxpayers' watchdog in the state. He's the first Democrat to beat an incumbent Republican in Iowa in 50 years. We discuss putting public service above politics, delivering good governance, and how to get stuff done even when you are part of a political minority. The auditor's job is to promote transparency, uncover wrongdoing, and report their findings to the public. Their work is key in holding powerful people in positions of trust accountable. Questions about whether government should be smaller or bigger miss the mark because the goal is to have better government that meets people where they are. Good governance is the bedrock of a self-governing society.
