Brenda Wilson's legal troubles with her family are escalating as she nears Election Day in her Republican primary challenge against state Sen. Greg Goode. I explained the family conflict surrounding the Trump-endorsed candidate in a previous column. Since then, new documents and interviews have revealed something more serious: accusations of fraud, a disputed will and a theft allegation that ended with a state police search warrant.

Stewart: The primary challenger to state Sen. Greg Goode is a vessel for a revenge scheme that might backfire. President Donald Trump had no idea who he was endorsing. Read more: indystar.com/story/opinion/…

President Trump endorsed an Indiana Senate candidate but clearly has no idea who she is. Her own family wants to stop her. I spoke with the Wilson family about why they endorsed @gregoryjgoode in his race against @BrendaWilsonIN. Even though one of them told me she initially supported Trump’s push for mid-cycle redistricting, which Goode opposed & which led to his unusually intense primary challenge.

Indiana legislators want to make sure you’re NEVER able to OWN a home. They just banned Carmel & Fishers’ rental caps on single-family homes in a major giveaway to large, corporate landlords at YOUR expense Read my latest for @indystar in the comments. The cap only allowed 10% of those homes in a subdivision to be rented out. Now, the wealthy can compete with middle class families to buy as many as they want to rent for a premium.

.@IUBloomington likely cut the @idsnews print edition to avoid legal trouble. That might have worked, had they not contradicted their student media action plan and hamstrung IDS’s ability to become fiscally sustainable. To retaliate, IDS should go underground. For @indystar:

If you are a student newspaper that wants to remain independent and decide what content you produce, never accept a $1 million bailout from your university. When I ran @indianacommons, I took $0 from @IUIndianapolis for this reason.
