Iowa Poll: Kamala Harris leapfrogs Donald Trump to take lead near Election Day. Here's how desmoinesregister.com/story/…
The Episcopal Church, where I married my husband would like a word on what is / isn’t sacred.
Republican Lt. Gov. candidate Micah Beckwith says of gay marriage, “you're taking the sacred, and you're taking it and defiling that.”

The issue of trans kids and sports is SOOOOO complex, but this is simple:
Don’t use trans kids as red meat for your voting base. Be decent. Be human.
The Pacers and Fever have a good and decent vice president in Danny Lopez.
But the Pacers and Fever have a problem on their hands in divisive, fearmongering political candidate Danny Lopez.

This is unacceptable. Sure, can state party fund all of those races? Of course not. But running someone should be a bare minimum.
"In more than a quarter of Indiana’s state house districts and more than a third of its state senate districts up for election in November, no Democrats are running," writes @andrew_mmiller

Someday some reporter will figure out how to explain to the American public how post-Covid inflation was a worldwide phenomenon caused by pent-up demand and that the Biden/Harris administration handled it better than every other country.
Completely agree with @JamesEBriggs here. I’m a homer for @PeteButtigieg but let a guy dream here.

Joe Biden’s presidency has been transformational. He accomplished more in the past four years — to bring back jobs, stand up to big corporations, and build an economy that works for all of us — than we have been able to get done in the last forty. He deserves full credit for beating Donald Trump in 2020, and his selfless decision today gives us our best shot at doing it again in 2024. While Donald Trump tried to tear down our democracy to maintain his grip on power, Joe Biden willingly stepped aside in order to protect our democracy. President Biden’s selfless action is a profound gift to the people of the United States — and it’s on all of us not to waste it.
I endorse Kamala Harris for President. She is a proven fighter who has been a national leader in safeguarding consumers and protecting access to abortion. As a former prosecutor, she can press a forceful case against allowing Donald Trump to regain the White House. We have many talented people in our party, but Vice President Harris is the person who was chosen by the voters to succeed Joe Biden if needed. She can unite our party, take on Donald Trump, and win in November.
Indy and the world are better, stronger because of his leadership. And what a legacy in those he mentored, who have then mentored others.

"That was pretty!"
Caitlin Clark to Erica Wheeler to Kelsey Mitchell for the and- 1!
Say what you will, but for anyone who cares about downtown Indy and a long term home for soccer in our city, there is only one option. And it’s the heliport.
If you don’t want to accept an olive branch being offered, I don’t have much patience.

Knicks were 2-0 up, 3-2 up and hosted Game 7. Sorry but I’m not having it that the story of this series was New York’s emergence and resilience.

There’s room for everyone to save face here. Even room for Indy Eleven to live on in MLS.
And whatever folks think about MLS (there’s plenty to think and complain about), it is the only way soccer will have a permanent franchise in Indy.
