So in my LAST education op-ed Remember when I criticized the folks saying we have to give in because the State legislature could just dissolve IPS like Union school Corp Because I found Union school Corp is a TINY school district that was fighting the state? Yeah www.wfyi.org/education/20...

wfyi.orgJudge strikes down part of Indiana law closing Union SchoolsA judge struck down the part of an Indiana law that required Union School Corp. to shut down in July 2027, after lawmakers added it to a 2025 property tax bill.

It seems to me that the folks should have spent LESS time fixating on blocking kids from getting pop and snacks with SNAP benefits And more on keep making sure a single scammer couldn't hit them for $4.4 MILLION in SNAP fraud www.atlantanewsfirst.com/2026/10/21/a...

Streets to Home Indy One of my biggest fears with Streets to Home Indy was ghouls like OPHS Director Andrew Merkley would use it as propaganda to close down homeless camps around the city without HELPING ANYONE

IF you're associated with Streets to Home Indy in any capacity you should be asking WHY your program is being used as a smokescreen for Mayor Hogsett's agenda of hurting ppl

Its interesting to me that the Mayor of Carmel is pushing a campaign to change Indiana's constitution to allow us to be denied bail when accused of ANY crime and she sites a carjacking by a repeater HAMILTON let go as an example

A US airman was doing a military propaganda aerial demonstration at a college football game in Texas and fell to his death... They dragged him off the field and proceeded with kickoff We're LIVING the dystopian society dreamed up in fiction novels

My most centrist opinion is that we'd be better off if all the police in the metro (and really the state) were under a single organization (even knowing that org would not be headed by a machine dem)

Pure Boofonery If the Mayor of Lawrence gets to send Lawrence police into INDIANAPOLIS to shoot it up or chase suspects until they crash into homes We ought to get to vote for Lawrence Mayor And city councils PUBLIC SAFETY committee chairman protects Lawrence PD in terrorizing INDIANAPOLIS

Indy is starting to get better duplexes 2 X 6 construction w/ air gapped 2 X 6 party walls and thick 1 inch or more sublfoors so kids running around don't shake the whole house. Multi-family housing NEVER had to be noisy or firetraps it's just a feature of bad architecture and corner cutting 🤷🏿‍♂️

There is a school board candidate that received 78.9% of their campaign money from: Scam ̷S̷t̷a̷n̷d̷ for Children But only 3.6% from ppl in Indiana

I'm reading an old lawsuit where someone who's now running for school board Sued a school that fired him for poor job performance and said it was because of his GENDER and an unknown disability he never claimed? 🤯🤯🤯

So while I was having conversations with contractors about the poorly designed, energy inefficient affordable housing they're building in Indianapolis Gary Indiana is building NET ZERO a 38 unit development with a WIC clinic and greenhouse ...... THIS is why I'm writing that housing article

Some folks need to check on their parents and grandparents 🤗 Ukrainian drones took out a Russian data center and right wing bot activity is down across the interwebs

True story: Our city is named Indianapolis because Christopher Columbus' stupid ass thought he landed in Asia and therefore all the Brown ppl he was seeing were INDIANS 😂 So later we named our state that, then our state capital

When I took early human origins they didn’t talk about the NIMBY Hunter gatherers bitching about the apartment buildings springing up all over ancient Turkey.

Apartments/Multi-family housing has been around 9000 years.... It's literally what makes cities possible. Yet we do so little to invest in making them BETTER to solve this housing crisis

Indy Vision Zero: 1. Come up with a plan that has modest safety goals. 2. Hear extreme pushback from drivers and business lobby. 3. Instantly cave. 4. ???? 5. Somehow we still think no deaths!!

ACCOUNTABILITY POST I'm working on my loooooong delayed housing article too The way we design and plan housing from ownership models to what type of insulation it gets CONTRIBUTES to a housing crisis

More on street parking along College avenue for this Vision Zero project lol

Is it too late challenge candidates that don't live at the address they filed? Its so many candidates doing it this year I'm assuming its just not enforced

I think we can all agree that Max Engling is the shittiest candidate in the Secretary of State race I knew he was bad ....but I think he stepped up the bad yesterday lol

i'd donate my entire savings to Beau Bayh's campaign if he came out in favor of legalizing direct from manufacturer auto sales

Progressives can criticize folks all they want for saying we need more Jesus in politics But ONE of the Secretary of States duties is to regulate auto dealers Sometimes you just gotta let Jesus take the wheel 🤷🏿‍♂️

I remember MAGA saying Trump would restore respect for America around the world Today there is a gold statue of President Trump in the European Parliament building and he's LITERALLY butt naked ...... Shared post

These are OLD signs I saw at Butler University today that don't have the new Indygo routes #s on there But we need signs that give info like this in other areas that have MULTIPLE bus routes like: Far Eastside, The Meadows, Broad Ripple, and Fountain Square,
