The Indy Oracle

@Indy_reporter_ Even beyond the funding, the entire concept is hopelessly flawed.

x.com/93wibc/status/… Seems like theater. They not only have to build it, but they need money to maintain it. This will turn into another blighted area on the Westside in no time.

@SenatorCollins Who is this masquerading as the hopelessly liberal, RINO Susan Collins?

Passage of the Department of Homeland Security funding package brings us closer to ending the reckless and harmful shutdown of DHS that Democrats triggered when they walked away from the bipartisan funding bill for the Department. That original bill contained new safeguards and oversight to protect the American public and our law enforcement, including additional funding for body-worn cameras and deescalation training. Over the past five weeks, Republicans have made repeated attempts to reach bipartisan consensus to reopen the Department. Republicans offered proposals to expand the use of body-worn cameras; limit civil immigration enforcement in sensitive areas such as schools and hospitals; increase oversight of detention facilities; and implement visible officer identification. While Republicans worked in good faith to try to reach agreement, Democrats remained intransigent and unreasonable with their list of demands. Congressional Democrats have done real damage to the appropriations process by repeatedly forcing government shutdowns and refusing to fund entire agencies. Their refusal to fund ICE and Border Patrol leaves our borders and our country less secure and sets a precedent that they may one day come to regret. Today’s action moves us closer to ending the disastrous shutdown at the Department, which has caused chaos at our airports, made us more vulnerable to cyber and terrorist attacks, delayed disaster response to communities in need, and caused thousands of hardworking federal employees to report to work with no guarantee of when they will be paid. Moving forward, I remain committed to ensuring adequate funding to secure our borders.

Purdue tried desperately to lose but couldn't quite get it done.

Newsflash: Getting your opinion on each & every topic from social media is just as bad as getting everything you believe from the big, rectangular screen in your living room. Dig into topics and form your own opinions.

@realBrandonGill Then get rid of Thune. He is hopelessly compromised & is under orders to make sure the Save America Act dies.

Leaving the SAVE America Act at the mercy of reconciliation is failure theater. I didn't come to DC to engage in failure theater. Nobody elected a Republican trifecta for more failure theater. We came to deliver results— and securing our elections should be the bare minimum.

@indgop Just STFU......

Whether utility executives admit it or not, Hoosiers know when we’re being taken advantage of. That ends under Governor Braun.

@SecRollins @POTUS Why don't you shove this. The American farmer absolutely despises Donald Trump (and you) for selling them out to Brazil, Tyson, and anyone else who would pat you on the head like a good puppy dog.

.@POTUS Trump LOVES America's farmers and our farmers LOVE him back!! Our Administration is working around the clock to to deliver real relief and boost the farm economy and make necessary long term structural changes to our trading relationship, putting our farmers first. Stay tuned! 🇺🇸❤️

@SecRollins @USDA @WhiteHouse Are these the ones you brought in from Brazil or Venezuela? You and your buddies at Tyson are purposely & quickly driving American producers out of the market in favor of large, corporate "farms."

TASTES LIKE FREEDOM 🐄🥩🇺🇸🐖🐓🍳🦃🇺🇸

@Indy_reporter_ @press4IN And she is a Republican candidate? Sad.....

@press4IN Got it. You are mad that FACTS were being presented. Don't cry about media not asking questions when you put out garbage statements like this.

Mrs.Reitenour has no obligation to engage with opinion-based media endorsing other candidates or spreading false info (BELOW -campaign could not attend). Lack of access does not justify misrepresentation. The campaign remains open to credible media and Hoosiers seeking facts.

@AGToddRokita The posts in this thread, trying to somehow defend Allen, are testament to the mental illness that has so infested our society. Allen couldn't be more obviously guilty but the depressed, mentally unbalanced want to be a part of something, anything, that goes against the grain.

@AGToddRokita Richard Allen confessed to a minimum of 9 people that he was guilty. He even told them details that no one but the killer could have known. When.....when do we quit all of this coddling nonsense?

Today, our Appeals team filed a brief firmly defending Richard Allen’s convictions for the brutal murders of two young Hoosier girls.  We are fighting to uphold justice for Abby and Libby, standing with their families and every Hoosier who demands accountability and closure for this horrific crime.

@Indy_reporter_ What an absolute shithole.....

x.com/Indy_reporter_… Join me in checking out the "progress" of West Washington construction in preparation of the Blue Line. It is currently down to one lane past Belmont. No shocker they had a small crew of 4 people. Before you ask. Yes, 3 of them were just looking at a hole. Again, Indy is run by dopes that give contracts to construction companies that have ZERO urgency. BTW, this yesterday around 2pm.

If you think things in Indianapolis are bad now, just wait. There are very dark days coming. Indy will never be the same again.

Fat, ugly women with tattoos are bad enough but attractive, young women with tattoos just SCREAMS mental illness....

@RepSpartz It is so much more than $200B. Nearly all of it is condoned by members of Congress who receive millions in kickbacks to keep it from being exposed.

Today, the Joint Economic Committee held a hearing on protecting Americans from fraudsters — over $200B is stolen annually through sophisticated scams. Watch panel discussions on the urgent need to designate an agency to coordinate these efforts and pass legislative reforms.

@jimstinson @Indy_reporter_ If you don't understand the difference between 2018 and 2026, perhaps you should just sit quietly and learn from the adults..... Being associated with Trump will be a disaster for any GOP candidate, local, state, or federal.

@Indy_reporter_ @OracleIndy I heard that in 2018 too. It wasn't. At least not in Indiana and Florida.

x.com/davebangert/st… Trump is blindly endorsing any Indiana Legislator that voted yes on redistricting. I've been saying this since last year. A Trump endorsement doesn't have the same weight as it did 5 years ago. A Trump endorsement has become a Sagamore of the Wabash Award.

@GovBraun Blow it out your ass, Braun. The IURC has always been, is now, and will always be, corrupt.

On Tuesday, utilities defended their rate increases in front of the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission. I want to strongly praise Chairman Zay and the entire Commission for taking a hard stand and demanding real accountability. They asked the tough questions and made it clear that automatic pass-throughs and unchecked hikes are no longer acceptable. Residential electric rates have climbed 28.9% since 2014 — far outpacing inflation and our peer states. Hoosier families have had enough. I will personally review the results of Tuesday’s hearing and the full listening sessions to identify every additional way we can deliver real relief to ratepayers. With HEA 1002 now law, we have the tools to make it happen, and these sessions will ensure the voices of the people paying the bills come first.

It is beyond sad how much of a disaster the 2nd Trump term has been. What we've preached here from 2016 could not be more true: Trump's only real concern is....Trump. His ego, his insatiable need for praise, has destroyed his presidency & the future of America along with it.

@Indy_reporter_ @AESIndiana I may regret this someday but ...could it be any worse than what we have with AEE now?

.@AESIndiana put out a website about the Consortium Led by Global Infrastructure Partners and EQT Agrees to Acquire AES. Looking at it quickly, it seems like it's more for stockholders and ratepayers thefutureofaes.com
