@hlstevenson2 Congrats!

I’m honored to serve our community and I appreciate the continued confidence my colleagues on the Fishers Plan Commission have in me.

@HolyLandofHoops Marquette is flaming out. Wouldn’t be surprised if they become a bubble team by BE tourney time and need to make it to the championship to get in. Can’t seem to bring it on the road or put themselves in too big of a hole to dig out of.

Thoughts on the Big East right now? I’ll hang up and listen.

@rledbetterCPA Thanks for the information. Curious, since churches and private schools are set up to take public tax dollars, I would think they should also lose their tax exemption. I mean it looks like everything is being taxed except them.

The House just released a list of options they may use to pay for the next big tax bill to extend current tax cuts. Some expected, some zingers:

📬: Lawmakers are starting to comment on House Bill 1136. Here's what Rep. Greg Porter (D-Indianapolis) said: "The real intent behind HB 1136 is evident: to divert funds from traditional public schools. It’s to ensure charter schools get a share of IPS’ referendum funds."

Fishers Mayor @ScottFadness visited local @HSESchools this past week to surprise six teachers with more than $170,000 in funding as part of the new Educator Innovation Grant program, marking the highest grant amount awarded so far!

@FHSTigers Tiger up! Congrats Coach!

Video showed a man identified as Joel Caldwell making unsubstantiated allegations of election fraud and reviving long-debunked claims about Georgia’s 2020 presidential election. He isn’t a “Democratic operative” and his claims aren’t true. #Echobox=1730640537-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">politifact.com/factchecks/202…

A supposed group of Haitians seemingly admit to committing voter fraud in Georgia. That narrative is fake, and officials say Russian actors are behind it. #Echobox=1730639608-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">politifact.com/factchecks/202…

@casualbigten WI never seems to be up for the task during big statement games.

What did we learn yesterday?

To my Trump friends: He's lying to you. Violent crime is down, not up. Inflation is down, not up. Economic growth is up last 2 qtrs. Stock market is way, way up. Immigrants aren't evil. They take the jobs we don't want, buy products + fuel the economy. Don't believe a liar.

A sketchy website reported that Kamala Harris and Doug Emhoff received $500,000 to tip off Sean “Diddy” Combs about a federal raid. Officials said that this claim was manufactured by Russian influence actors. #Echobox=1730579786-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">politifact.com/factchecks/202…

I’m here to tell you that even though some have forgotten … I remember. I remember what it was like when Trump was president. I remember what he did and said, about Puerto Rico… About our people ... I remember after Hurricane Maria devastated our island… Trump blocked billions in relief … while thousands died. I remember that when our families lacked clean water and electricity, Trump threw paper towels and called Puerto Rico “dirty” and “poor.” But I was not surprised.. Because I ALSO remember… he launched his campaign by calling Latinos criminals and rapists. He’s told us what he’ll do. He'll separate children from their families and threatened to use the ARMY to do it This election goes way beyond political parties. Now let’s remember what the United States represents and stands for. It’s our name - United. Regardless of where we’re from. I’m Marc Anthony… I remember… And that’s why I support Kamala Harris for President

A new Donald Trump campaign ad says Kamala Harris “wants struggling seniors to pay more Social Security taxes while she gives Medicare and Social Security to illegals.” The claim distorts Harris’ stance. #Echobox=1730197158" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">politifact.com/factchecks/202…

I’m old enough to remember when Republicans cared about things like character, paying your bills, and following the law (and I used to represent the Allen County Treasurer in trying to collect on monies owed the public before I was elected mayor). What’s changed?

A viral video doesn’t show an election worker destroying real ballots in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. That claim is Pants on Fire! #Echobox=1730118784-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">politifact.com/factchecks/202…

Former President Donald Trump often says that “millions” of immigrants who came illegally were formerly in jail or prison. U.S. data shows that some had criminal records, but it is nowhere near millions. #Echobox=1730071818-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">politifact.com/factchecks/202…

In a speech at Madison Square Garden, Tucker Carlson referred to Jan. 6 protestors as being "unarmed." But prosecutors count 129 defendants who were charged with “using a deadly or dangerous weapon or causing serious bodily injury to an officer.” #Echobox=1730065783-1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">politifact.com/factchecks/202…
