I am intrigued by the fairly consistent number of " follows" I have been receiving. Looks like mostly from democrats which is fine but I remind you all, being #NeverTrumper doesn't turn me into a liberal.
Love to get more #IU and #yescers followers. I do miss my sports peeps.

The President doesn’t really want the Epstein files to be released. He just reversed his position because Republicans were getting their asses kicked.
If Trump wanted to, he could order the release of the files right now.

The pedo chief is now attacking the Senate leader and Gov in Indiana.
It was just a few weeks back when the most respected republican in this state called restricting a mistake.
It is a slow crack but the rats are fleeing this ship.

Massie: "The president has been saying this is a hoax. Well, he's just now decided to investigate a hoax, if it's a hoax. And I have another concern about these investigations he's announced. If they have ongoing investigations, those documents can't be released. So this might be a big smokescreen."

Count the ways they’re corrupting DOJ: Presidents don’t direct AG’s to open criminal cases, especially ones designating only Dems for investigation when POTUS himself is involved. DOJ doesn’t publicize criminal investigations & the AG definitely doesn’t assign them on Twitter.

Not ICE. Border Patrol. They’re wearing Border Patrol uniforms with clear Border Patrol patches on them.
There are many videos of ICE officers doing outrageous stuff but a lot of the absolute worst videos are of Border Patrol, who are basically Bovino and Miller’s most aggressive tool right now.

ICE agents in Chicago violently detain a non verbal autistic man for being “non compliant”
He couldn’t “comply” because of his disability…they don’t care
This is not the first time they’ve gone after a disabled person
They target the most vulnerable because it’s an easy way to meet their quota

American foreign policy under Donald Trump's rule is explicitly white supremacist.
President Trump says that U.S. government officials will not be attending the Group of 20 summit this year in South Africa, citing the country’s treatment of white farmers.

Sandwich Guy, Thrower of Hoagie–Or Hero?
The trial ended in an acquittal. But the proceedings felt like a strange sort of performance art—highly amusing and highly menacing at the same time.

Trump reacts to Nancy Pelosi retirement:
“The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America. She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country."

I am becoming concerned cause she ain't wrong and I am agreeing with her more often than I am comfortable with.
CNN: Johnson and Thune have downplayed the elections results. Are they wrong?
MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I don't think they should downplay it. In Georgia we lost 2 very important Public Service Commission seats that were statewide races. I think that should be a big wakeup call.

He is living in a different reality.
Mike Johnson: "After redistricting, we think we'll net a few more seats. A handful. Maybe six to eight. We're in very good position to make history and grow this majority. We have a real record to run on. Mamdani wants to talk about affordability? We love that subject."

At the risk of oversimplification, IU basketball just felt fun again Wednesday. For one night — Darian DeVries' first night — that was enough.

This Indiana basketball team was more fun than years' past. Perhaps IU is better, or at least worth enjoying
The Hoosiers had alley-oops, many 3s and thunderous slams. It was fun to watch, and suggested things around IU might be different.
