Iowa Secretary of State’s Post

Whatever America Hope's to bring to pass in the world must first come to pass in the Heart of America.Pay attention to the universe, it's so translusive.At a time when national power is held by the wealthy, there is a urgent need -if democracy is to serve for people to organize in own communities. The wisdom of nations lies in their proverbs, which are brief and pity.When god wants to give a message, he makes sure it gets delivered. God gives his hardest battles to his strongest soldiers. You always pass failure on way to success. happens for a reason. Is it more than coincidence- Devine nature of light. Is god visible-his humorous ways.A core value that drives is passion for justice- political spectrum emphasis  is on harnessing  these techniques and strategies to increase equal opportunities and Justice in our society -caring for each other and making society more equitable. Truth often suffers more by the heat of its definiatives than from the arguments of its opposers. Has been known to be said, "no way of judging of the future, but by the past." That concerns me, for my children, our children- America in general. I'm determined to not let the root of all evil overrule In God We Trust, especially in family courts. In spite of what's been recently demonstrated, as well as defining and exercising the concepts that differs: helping, protecting, and enabling; right and wrong- for what reasons and for whom. There has been a variety of incidences leading/ leaving me with redirecting concerns. If I was to write out (rewrite at least the incidents up -it would be a novel; can only speak the truth.Better execution of our innovation. Initiative is our challenge. We live in a age when change is acceleration. Breaking the system takes care. Has always been a pioneer in providing innovative business ideas, and community involvement.

We need change

There are two pillars in nation building. One pillar is men and the second pillar is women. When both pillars are strongly placed then the structure of the country is most stable.

DO YOU KNOW the difference between certain patriotic holidays? For example, what is the difference between Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Armed Forces Day? These three holidays should not be confused. Memorial Day is a federal holiday that remembers and mourns people who have died in U.S. military service. Veterans Day, also a federal holiday, honors the service of all U.S. military veterans, both living and deceased. Armed Forces Day, meanwhile, celebrates everyone currently serving in the U.S. armed forces. Unlike Memorial Day and Veterans Day, Armed Forces Day is not an official federal holiday. #Wagnerrealty #armedforcesday2024 #militaryservice #armedforces

hopefully our paths will cross in the near future

Making the leap from military service to a career in civilian life can seem like a wide distance to clear. However, according to the retired US Navy admiral who organized the raid against Osama bin Laden, the first steps are always the same. Retired Admiral Bill McRaven, one of America's most decorated veterans, said there's about 200,000 active service members who become veterans — and there's nothing better than "giving a vet a job."

Privileges in Camouflage: Lessons Beyond the Uniform Scott Kinder’s recent post, “The Unspoken Privileges of the Uniform,” deeply resonated with me. Having served nearly 15 years in the military, I’ve experienced firsthand the unique privileges and culture that come with wearing the uniform—things I know I’ll miss after transitioning into civilian life. In the military, resilience is a way of life. Phrases like “embrace the suck” or “pain is weakness leaving the body” are part of the culture, shaping us to push through adversity. But as Scott aptly points out, these sayings and approaches don’t translate to the civilian world. Civilians value empathy, efficiency, and outcomes over toughness or hierarchy. What stood out to me the most is how authority and job security function differently. In uniform, rank commands respect, promotions often come with time served, and mistakes are met with corrective actions rather than dismissal. Outside, however, civilians focus on skills, measurable impact, and adaptability. Job security isn’t guaranteed, and respect must be earned. Scott’s message is clear: transitioning veterans must let go of some military mindsets and embrace a new set of rules. It’s a different game, and adapting quickly is the key to success. For those of us preparing for this shift, this post is both a warning and a guide. We should reflect on what we’re leaving behind and recognize the opportunity to grow beyond the bubble of the uniform. How are you preparing for your transition? What lessons have you learned about adapting to civilian life? Let’s share and support each other.
