I think we are all breathing a sigh of relief that our Republican U.S. Senators adjourned EARLY so they would not get caught up in yesterday's FAA calamity. Imagine all of those poor senators being stuck on a plane with all of us regular people.

For 2 years, we begged a bunch of lazy, corrupt Senators to pass a law that 85% of the Public wanted passed. They refused. Then the election happened. Do you think they learned anything?

Majority Leader John Thune's decision to adjourn the Senate for the weekend is a flat-out "f-you" to Republican voters. And his decision not to go into recess is a giant "f-you" to President Trump. Do you realize that President Trump is the only Republican president in modern American history who has not been allowed to make recess appointments? Richard Nixon: 41 Gerald Ford: 8 Ronald Reagan: 232 George H.W. Bush: 78 George W. Bush: 171 Donald Trump: 0 Thune and Senate Republican leadership are colluding with Democrats to stop President Trump's agenda. That's the only plausible reason for the Majority Leader's behavior. The man's integrity has now been called into question.

Every single GOP Senator that voted for Thune needs to be primaried… … So all of them

After a historic loss, the GOP senate votes in all the same people into leadership positions. Classic.

If DC Republicans are serious about getting stuff done, they should commit not to go on Fox News until the SAVE Act becomes law.

Sounds relatable, right @RobMKendall ?
My opinion on why the Repub Senate lost the support of the American people: They got very little done - as is often the case. The difference is less people watch TV (FOX News) where the Senators get softball questions from the hosts. Instead, people are online, learning directly from X, and from online podcasters that the past 2 yrs were not much more than a long, extended vacation - where the Senators accomplished almost Nothing. Kind of like they were waiting to lose and return to the Minority, where they seem more comfortable.

Indianapolis radio ratings for October. I’d point out a certain station is down 33 percent since January but then a bunch of people would get mad at me for pointing it out, so I won’t.

Indiana Republicans purged their own senators over disloyalty for not passing this pro-Democrat map.
This is insane! Here is a map of yesterday’s Indiana House results if they were drawn under the attempted Republican gerrymander map from last Fall. Thank you to @Vulst3 for breaking down the data to make this map. The gerrymander could’ve netted us a 9-0 or 8-1 map potentially!

I’m thinking Republicans need to find a sharper leader than Jim Banks. The map was a stupid idea and Banks personally owns the secretary of state loss. indystar.com/story/opinion/c…

Indiana GOP Chairwoman Lana Keesling cost a 27-year-old his job for a week by taking a 2017 prank at face value. Republicans can't afford that lack of judgment ahead of an unusually competitive midterm. She took full responsibility for her mistake. Now she should resign.

Want to take a moment and thank @JohnRust_IN for his generosity and amazing support the last 7 months! He has been an awesome supporter of mine for years and is a great believer of free speech and civil discourse. Thank you John for everything. This podcast would not have grown the incredible way it has without him. Hopefully some very exciting stuff to announce soon.

.@Indy_reporter_ gets a lot of crap from people. But you can’t deny he finds all sorts of stuff no one else does. Don’t gotta like the guy to respect the effort he puts into government transparency and accountability.

Why does a “Republican” run state have government controlled developments? I thought the Democrats were the commies? @Indiana_EDC @GovBraun @MicahBeckwith @realDonaldTrump @VP
Here's one of the Lebanon Indiana "LEAP" planned use maps. Site 18 is now the Meta data center and site 23 is Lilly site 2, that yellow directly to the East of Meta is where they have their planned "mixed-use" community where they expect people to be hanging out. This is great planning...I can't wait for those video's! "Hey Corey let's go down to LEAP and hang out downwind of the data center, nothing says a good time like generators so close you can taste them and the humming so loud it makes our eyes shake!" "That sounds cool Patrick, but let's be closer to the pharmacutical plant, when the wind hits out of the south you can get that Lilly flavor mixed in!" Because all the nice places that people visit are anchored by data centers run on generators and pharmaceutical plants...@Indiana_EDC @GovBraun @MicahBeckwith @Lebanon_Indiana @RobMKendall @Indy_reporter_ @Meta @EliLillyandCo

The @IJ has documented well over 100 incidents of license plate reader abuse, and they say that is likely just the tip of the iceberg. 157 local governments have already canceled or declined to renew these contracts since the start of 2025. Americans are not asking police to stop solving crimes. They are asking a simple question the Constitution asked a long time ago: Where is the warrant? reason.com/2026/09/03/a-new-…
