Imagine a historian in 2035 writing a political history of the 2020s, and he points out that every election, the out-of-power party won a cost-of-living election and then used their mandate to ignore or exacerbate affordability only to be destroyed in the next election, where voters again said “to be clear, I don’t want whatever bullshit you’re up to, I just want life to feel more affordable,” and then, once again, the winning politicians prioritized everything except affordability, and this story repeated itself over and over again.
One of my strongest held political opinions right now is: Democrats should do everything they can to avoid that history being written.
So many people call out the grift of the other side and we can still do that but we also need to amplify the understanding that there are people grifting on outrage farming purportedly on our side.
This isn't going to be the last time. The so-called "DSA" & their affiliates are basically a capitalist racket, profiting off fear, rage, desire-for change, audience-capture, etc. They're manipulating our politics for profit and dopamine. Be on the look out.
The Colts now have 12 draft picks for 2027.
Currently ~$82 million in cap for 2027.
Cut Ward, Clemons, Key, and post June 1 cut Jones and you're up to $145 million in cap space.
for my birthday, my partner and some friends organized a huge bang gang for me, with 42 attendees! Here's the breakdown of how the event was organized, exit survey statistics, and what it was like for me psychologically. 1/
Scott Colom’s victory gives me some hope that we could be moving towards a more post-racial future where people back their material interests over racial grievances. Now we just need a POC Dem in a safe D area to make a generational faux pas to lose to really be hope-pilled.
Need Hoosier Dems to lock tf in for 2028. We can get a Senator if we nominate the right person and stay on message especially if the dumbassery from the White House continues.
Here we see the development of Hoosier conservative anti-capitalism. We’ve been lucky that this hasn’t been a live force in American politics but Trump has been a force enabling the development of all these alien forms of conservatism that Reagan worked so hard to ostracize.
Hamilton County’s political shift over the past decade should be a wake-up call for Indiana.
We need to seriously rethink our approach to residential development. Instead of prioritizing massive apartment complexes and high-density housing, we should be encouraging single-family homeownership, strong neighborhoods, and communities where families can put down roots for generations.
Growth alone isn't success. The question is whether we're building communities that preserve the character, traditions, and values that have made Indiana such a great place to live.
Indiana shouldn't sacrifice its small-town identity and family-centered communities in the name of unchecked development.
Let's build more homes (not apartments), strengthen homeownership, and protect the Hoosier way of life! 🇺🇸
(Oh… and then DON’T TAX THE HOME!)
