@MegaMagaMemes @Jim_Banks Dream on, sir. The money "saved" will go to pay for larger tax cuts for the richest among us. You've got to realize that's the priority of the GOP. Follow the money.

@Jim_Banks You should provide some specifics and examples of the waste you say plagues the USAID. I've seen many examples of funds helping sick and impoverished children, providing HIV medications, stopping Ebola spread. Cut any waste Congress finds, but retain the crucial programs.

From @The_IN_Citizen our thanks to @barbberg and @SteveHinnefeld for a strong first installment in our coverage of this year's election of a new Indiana secretary of state, and to former @SenEvanBayh and others who helped in explaining its importance. https://t.co/ZPdNp12Nyv

It's great to have @barbberg back in the saddle and filling in to cover the remainder of the Indiana legislative session for @ibjnews. Read her latest: https://t.co/zKfQtGQl2a

We're raising money at the Unitarian Universalist Church to co-sponsor a Habitat for Humanity house -- one chili serving at a time! Actually, we're doing a lot more to raise thousands of dollars, but this is one of our winter fundraisers. It will... https://t.co/EMI3Lyobmd

Important article to read about new book on Trump. Depiction of meeting with military leaders is eye-opening, to say the least. https://t.co/UrnQ2CGig2

Finally, the last state needed to ratify the ERA! It's been so long after many of us worked so hard to get Indiana to take that step in 1977. We'll see if it actually becomes part of the Constitution because of the delay in 38 states passing it. https://t.co/B9qIhvsXhq
