Trying to connect with my fellow Hoosier twitx-exodusers. I am mostly here to stay informed, let off some snark steam, and add news comments here and there. But also hope to stay connected w/others concerned with ed in Indiana, and more broadly as the sustained attack on public education continues.

When a 22-year-old white man was accused of assassinating Charlie Kirk, did the Trump regime investigate all the 22-year-old white men in the country? Or is collective punishment only a thing we do to people of non-European descent?

The president has illegally declared war to stop fentanyl trafficking from a country that does not traffic that drug, claiming its leader is trafficking drugs himself, the day after pardoning a former leader of a country who is a convicted drug trafficker.

#Indiana Legislators are rushing a special session on redistricting: House hearings expected Tues, Dec. 2; Senate hearings on Tues the 9th. They may not allow time for everyone to testify, or may try to shut public comment down altogether. Share your testimony here: secure.ngpvan.com/g2gLE0zNgEWK...
This isn’t normal redistricting after the census — it’s an early, mid-decade power grab
to redraw Indiana’s Congressional maps years ahead of schedule so politicians can pick
their voters instead of voters choosing their leaders.
