Republicans won 58% of the vote across Indiana’s US House elections in 2024, granting them an already over-representative seven of the state’s nine congressional seats.

The new map, published Monday, would eliminate the remaining two seats in the state held by Democrats.

this is an excellent piece by @smotus.bsky.social . Trump isn't going to cancel elections; he's going to try to use gerrymandering and voter suppression to make it impossible for Ds to win.

the one thing I'd add is that...I think we're in a better place w/ this than we thought we'd be before Nov.

Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

this raccoon is really emotionally resonating with everybody
The masked burglar broke into the closed Virginia liquor store early on Saturday and hit the bottom shelf. The bandit was something of a nocturnal menace: bottles were smashed and alcohol pooled on the floor.

The suspect acted like an animal because, in fact, he's a raccoon.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
