Laura Belin and Spencer Dirks discuss the top Iowa politics stories from the week, starting with Donald Trump's lawsuit against the Des Moines Register and its longtime pollster, Ann Selzer. They also talked about how the Iowans voted on last-minute efforts to keep the federal government open and a Social Security bill, which divided the Iowa delegation in an unusual way. Other topics discussed: Iowa's prospects for keeping four Congressional districts, the first human case of bird flu announced, a date for the special election to replace Lieutenant Governor Chris Cournoyer, a controversy over a state audit of the Judicial Branch, oral arguments at the Iowa Supreme Court related to the state's English-only law, and how the judicial branch has changed juvenile justice policies to address racial disparities.
