I get why it's important for journalists not to appear biased. I also get that if the mainstream media had been doing its job and reporting accurately and not sane-washing things that are truly insane then heroes like @terrymoranabc.bsky.social wouldn't have had to stand up and speak truth to power.

Hoosier values matter more than DC threats and bullying. Splicing our state’s largest city—and its biggest economic driver—into four parts is ridiculous. It’s clear these orders are coming from Washington, and they clearly don’t know the first thing about our community.

Who is the president of the United States?
talking to reporters last night, Trump claimed of Hegseth's double tap strike that "I don't know anything about it," then moments later claimed "I don't who you're talking about" when asked his plan to pardon the former Honduran president

BREAKING - IN House Republicans released this potential Congressional voting map, just 4 hrs before they begin session, that splits Marion County into FOUR districts. This new map is a blatant attempt to disenfranchise voters by diluting their votes, silencing the 40% of Democratic Hoosier voters.
