On Iowa Politics Podcast: Iowa Trump Reaction, Same-Sex Marriage, Scott Recount, and the King Meme Trial
On this week’s edition of the On Iowa Politics podcast: Iowa Republicans’ muted reaction to Donald Trump’s big announcement, Chuck Grassley and Joni Ernst vote on same-sex marriage protections, a new education committee in the Iowa Legislature, a recount in Scott County, and Steve King on trial.
On Iowa Politics is a weekly news and analysis podcast that aims to re-create the kinds of conversations that happen when you get political reporters from across Iowa together after the day's deadlines have been met.
This week’s show is hosted by The Gazette’s Des Moines Bureau Chief Erin Murphy and features Gazette Deputy Bureau Chief Tom Barton, Sarah Watson of the Quad City Times, Lee Des Moines Bureau Chief Caleb McCullough, and Jared McNett of the Sioux City Journal.
The show was produced by Stephen M. Colbert, and the music heard on the podcast is courtesy of Imperfekt and Copperhead.
Republican U.S. Rep. Steve King talks to voters Nov. 5, 2018, in Webster City shortly before he was elected to another term. This week, the Northwest Iowa congressmen said he did not play a direct role in posting over the weekend a controversial meme on his campaign Facebook page. The image was later deleted.
