Unpopular take here and I'm prepared for the incoming from angry Democrats.
But if people want to blame somebody for the Democrats not being able to force the Republicans to extend the ACA right now, PART of that blame falls on we the voters.
Because we didn't elect enough Democrats to do it.

This is truly where things stand
Our deductibles and now premiums are so high
The plans are unless it’s a catastrophic emergency
Insurance companies take our premiums and then refuse paying for care. It’s a racket
Now unaffordable people will die and others will go bankrupt
America can do better and Americans deserve better

@davidjziemba.bsky.social FYI. He’s running as an independent. But he’s anti MAGA.
Granted, I haven’t spoken to him in 29 years.
Then, I knew him to be a very smart, studious, hardworking, thoughtful, and honorable person. He’s represent with dignity.
He’s worth locals looking into to support him.

Any Lafayette, IN area folks - one of my high school classmates is running as an independent for Congress. www.basedinlafayette.com/p/after-2024...
After 2024 Election Day absence, polling place assigned to Purdue for early and day-of primary voting
Plus, an independent candidate emerges in Indiana House District 13. Revelations from Purdue’s nuclear summit. Wabash Township offers support for lost SNAP benefits. And more.

Going to try something different. If you have insurance through the ACA exchange, please let us know your current monthly premium and what it is quoting you for 2025. Include the number of people and your city if you are comfortable with that.

Unpopular opinion, the Colts needed a “screw the pooch” game to not get cocky.
Steelers needed a game for the defense to believe in themselves.

Kenny Moore II can't take credit for his handwashing sack dance on Sunday.
By now you know, he got it from kids visiting the Colts as part of the Peyton Manning Children's Hospital homecoming event.
It's the kind of thing Moore is always doing in Indy.

You'll love why Colts CB Kenny Moore celebrated a sack by pretending to wash his hands
Kenny Moore learned the celebration from kids at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital.
'You never know how far stuff like that goes,' he said

Updated with my 2025 Braves bobbleheads. I’m sure I’ll rearrange it some. It feels out of balance, and I’m not happy with how low Blooper is on the shelves.

Thunder beat the Pacers 141-135 in double overtime. By the end, the Pacers were without Haliburton, McConnell, Nembhard, Nesmith, and Mathurin but battled all night. They ran out of bodies. They're 0-1 despite an impressive effort.
