@hoosleft.usMichelle Milne has worn MANY hats in her career, but each role involved working with a diverse group of people to achieve a common goal. That's how the statehouse is SUPPOSED to work. She's our guest on the next HoosLeft Podcast. TUES 7pm ET | 6CT Links in the comments:

@hoosleft.usHaven't been able to make it yet but mine will look like 🟦🟪🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦🟦
@hoosleft.usPitchforks and torches are too good for these people.

@hoosleft.usLast week's botched execution of in TN highlights the barbarism of capital punishment. The people qualified to administer it won't do so because their first duty is do no harm. Maybe pro death penalty lawmakers should be responsible. Actually, don't give them any ideas.

@hoosleft.usThanks Leslie! One of these days we'll have good news to talk about. 🤞
@nussforus.bsky.socialReposted by @hoosleft.usScott is so well informed. Pleasure to be a guest this week and discuss this important if distressing topic among others along with Dr Rob Stone, head of IN’s Medicare for All.
@hoosleft.us@hoosleft.usLast week, Pete Hegseth announced a new Pentagon Office of Religious Affairs, doubling down on Christian nationalism in the military. The man is an incompetent, war criminal, r*pist, but invokes Jesus. Sir - these words you use - I don't think you know what they mean.

@hoosleft.usIndiana State Rep. JD Prescott is the author of one of the worst pieces of tax legislation the state has seen. And Hoosiers know a thing or two about bad tax policy. His opponent has much better ideas. John E. Bartlett joins us live. TUES 7pm ET | 6CT Links in the comments:
@hoosleft.us@hoosleft.usTW: R*pe This Cornell case horrifies, but does not surprise. Fraternity culture IS r*pe culture. These organizations, esp. at elite universities, cultivate the very culture of impunity that has placed a r*pists row (Trump, Hegseth, etc) in the highest positions of power.
