Below is the latest Travel Advisory Map. Shaded counties indicate where travel is ill-advised. Henry County (red) remains under a Travel WARNING, the highest local travel advisory level. No travel there. Photos are from viewer Lucy Garcia in New Castle. #INwx@FOX59@CBS4Indy
If you are traveling into Northwest Indiana in the next few days, please fill up with gas prior to entering Lake or Porter Counties. Fill up in Illinois if traveling east along I-80/94, Michigan or LaPorte County if traveling west on I-94, and in the Lafayette area if traveling north on I-65 from the Indianapolis area. Due to power outages, the gas stations that are open are very busy and may run out of fuel, both gasoline and diesel, at the current rate of need with generators running.
Also, many secondary roads remain blocked with down wires and trees that will take days to be cleared. Travel safe and if you can avoid travel, please consider doing so until roadways are clear and power restored. @nwi@CBS4Indy@cbschicago@nbcchicago@ABC7Chicago@ABC57News@16NewsNow@WSBT@fox32news@WGNMorningNews@WGNTV@WGNtraffic@WBBM1059Traffic@WBBMNewsradio@indiana105@PostTrib@INDOTNorthwest@RegionNewsNow@Telemundo

Dear Stephanie White,
Since you said you weren't "educated enough from a scientific standpoint" to say whether men should compete in women's sports or not, let me "educate" you.
- Males have significantly more lean muscle mass.
- On average, men have 30-40% more upper-body strength.
- After puberty, men have up to 20x more testosterone, which leads to greater muscle development, higher power output, & faster strength gains.
- Males have higher bone density, wider shoulders, & typically longer reach.
- Men produce more fast-twitch muscle fibers, which helps with explosive movements
- Males generally have larger hearts & lungs, contributing to higher aerobic capacity.
- Men have, on average, a 10–12% higher hemoglobin concentration, allowing the blood to carry more oxygen during exercise, which is why WNBA games & seasons are shorter than the NBA
- Males typically have a 15–20% higher VO₂ max than similarly trained females, improving endurance performance.
- Men have larger & stronger tendons & ligaments, allowing them to tolerate higher force production.
- Males typically possess larger skeletal frames, including bigger hands and feet, which can improve leverage & force generation in sports.
- Men generally recover quicker between maximal power efforts because of greater absolute muscle mass & anaerobic power.
Now you have no excuse to not say "men don't belong in women's sports," I'm looking forward to you standing with Sophie Cunningham on this issue 🤝
CONGRESS IS ATTEMPTING AMNESTY FOR ILLEGALS
NEED TO WATCH INDIANA CONGRESSMEN, ESPECIALLY MESSMER........He was the previous sponsor to allow illegals "Driving Cards". Warning...
The Thompson bill is the prominent recent Republican-sponsored measure that directly enables eligible undocumented ag workers to remain in the U.S. and legalize their status via H-2A without first leaving the country.
I'ts “amnesty” characterization is disputed along partisan and policy lines: opponents see it as rewarding illegal presence and hiring; supporters see it as pragmatic legalization of an essential workforce within a temporary guest-worker framework.
(H.R. 9535). Legislative details can evolve with amendments. H.R. 9535, the Securing Agriculture’s Workforce Act of 2026 (also called SAWA), introduced by Republican Rep. Glenn “G.T.” Thompson (R-PA-15), House Agriculture Committee Chairman, on June 30, 2026.
https://t.co/z8S9jQD1RX
It is a Republican-led measure focused on reforming the H-2A temporary agricultural worker visa program, with a controversial provision that allows certain undocumented agricultural workers already in the U.S. to transition to legal H-2A status and remain working in agriculture.
Key Provision for Existing Agricultural Workers (“Amnesty” Element)
The bill includes a targeted waiver of specific grounds of inadmissibility and deportability under the Immigration and Nationality Act (primarily unlawful presence-related bars, certain fraud or misrepresentation issues tied to employment, and related deportability grounds).
This applies for the purpose of obtaining H-2A status.
https://t.co/umj6vIpcDx
Eligible aliens include those who: Were unlawfully present in the United States on May 31, 2026, and Performed agricultural labor or services for at least 5.75 hours on each of at least 180 days during the two-year period ending on the date of enactment (roughly 1,035 hours total).
It also covers certain aliens who voluntarily departed. The waiver is limited: it applies only to conduct related to obtaining agricultural employment (not, for example, public benefits issues) and requires the worker to otherwise qualify for H-2A status.
https://t.co/umj6vIpcDx
Employers can continue employing these workers while their application is pending without violating unlawful employment rules. Employers providing employment records for verification receive protections/immunity from certain civil/criminal liability for prior hiring of the worker (unless records are fraudulent). Workers can transition to H-2A status while remaining in the U.S. (no requirement to leave first in these cases). This provision is what critics (e.g., NumbersUSA and the Immigration Accountability Project) describe as “sweeping amnesty” or amnesty for illegal workers and employers, as it waives bars that would otherwise block legal status and effectively converts many existing undocumented farmworkers into renewable H-2A guest workers.
https://t.co/m8oT5N9vi3 Supporters (including Thompson, many farm groups like the American Farm Bureau Federation, and agricultural state Republicans) emphasize that it is not amnesty or a path to citizenship/green cards. It creates a legal, temporary nonimmigrant work status to stabilize the existing agricultural workforce, prevent disruptions, and shift workers into the legal H-2A system.
H-2A status remains temporary and tied to agricultural employment. The bill makes broader reforms to the H-2A program (the first major statutory updates since its creation in 1986): Removes the strict “seasonal” requirement, allowing contracts up to 350 days (“temporary” redefined). Expands eligible work to year-round operations (e.g., dairy, livestock, poultry, certain processing). Caps annual increases to the Adverse Effect Wage Rate (AEWR) at 3.25% and includes other wage/cost stabilizations. Streamlines processes (single online portal, multi-year certifications possible, staggered entries/exits, interview waivers for returning workers). Broadens the definition of agricultural labor/services in some areas.
The bill has bipartisan original cosponsors (mostly Republicans from farm states, plus a few Democrats) and strong backing from over 400 agricultural organizations. It was referred to the House Judiciary Committee but has faced delays, with some Republicans prioritizing broader immigration enforcement first.

This is distinct from the Farm Workforce Modernization Act (e.g., H.R. 3227 in the 119th Congress), which has been led primarily by Democrats (with some Republican support) and includes a more explicit “Certified Agricultural Worker” status with a longer-term path toward lawful permanent residency/green cards after additional years of farm work. Another Republican proposal, Rep. Derrick Van Orden’s (R-WI) Agriculture Workforce Reform Act of 2025 (H.R. 4748), required workers to voluntarily depart and reenter legally—explicitly framed as not https://t.co/XpMFVTfI0K

INDIANA ( Indiana University)
I just spent a day and a half walking around the IU campus.
Whoever has the contract for food concessions there seems to be hiring nothing but H1B Visa holders.
The gift shops and other stores seem to be staffed by Americans.
This needs to be investigated. IU may not be hiring the entry level food service workers, but it appears their contractors are using H1-B workers.
The contracts between IU and the food vendors should be reviewed.

Sophie Cunningham just stole the show at UFC 329! 🔥
The Indiana Fever guard made a surprise cameo as a ring card girl tonight, strutting in the Octagon and holding up the Round 1 card for the co-main event like a pro.
It was a last-minute thing — Dana White said she basically asked to do it on the spot and he made it happen.
Russell Crowe says Tom Cruise taught him a blackjack strategy that won them $25,000
“Occasionally I will go and play blackjack at a casino if I'm in a group of people because, if you're all disciplined and if you hold every seat at a table, you can turn the tide against the house very easily”
“Funnily enough, it was Tom Cruise who taught me this. If you have it so the first chair and the last chair make the calls and the decisions, and everybody else just sits on 12 and above, you watch the mathematics come your way”
“Now, way back in the day, Tom calls me and goes, ‘Hey, bud. We got this thing set up. Steve Wynn has put on a jet. He's going to fly us to Vegas. We're allowed to play at Shadow Creek.’ I'm not really a golfer, but it sounded good to me. Jumped on the plane, went there, and we're playing Shadow Creek”
“We enjoyed ourselves at the golf course. Then we go back to the Wynn Hotel, and they've given us Michael Jackson's lanai to change clothes in or whatever. We go and get some Chinese food. The jet's comped, the golf's comped, the lanai's comped, the food's comped, and then we go and play blackjack together”
“Tom explains what the team's going to do, and we take $25,000 or more off the table. We go back to the airport, get on the comped jet, fly back to LA, and we finished up as a group. That was a perfect day”
OMG… Christopher Macchio just sung Nessun Dorma and said at the end— “NO ONE SLEEPS”
Drop a 🐸 if you know
Nessun Dorma is played at the end of the film The Sum of All Fears, in which time ALL the traitors & Deep State Actors were executed
