True in #GOPgerrymanderedFORDECADES #Indiana; my HS's football coach taught the 1-semester EACH Government and Economics classes required for Seniors to graduate. WE LEARNED NOTHING FROM HIM. Not wanting to be ignorant, I learned about US Gov & basic economics from books in my local library.

I wish #Indiana wasn't #GOPgerrymanderedForDecades.

Please discuss how to get #unelected Miller, Vought, Homan, & other #heritagefoundationproject2025ers out of our government. Please don't say "vote out GOP" ~ I live in #GOPgerrymanderedforDECADES #indiana & have voted Dem for my entire adult life (first vote was 1980).

I'm a #bluedot in #GOPgerrymanderedForDECADES #redstate. Our nowGovernor/thenSenator #MikeBraun infamously said about Trumpism: "we just have to go along". NO WE DON'T. ALL #BlueStateGovernors should #RedistrictNOW. Stand w/ANYONE against the #HeritageFoundationFascistWhiteSupremacistAdministration.

Here's the thing about @governor.ca.gov.
I 'm #bluedot in #GOPgerrymanderedForDECADES #Indiana. @governor.ca.gov is MY #HERO, doing more for #OurDemocracy than most other #Dems, period. @marcelias.bsky.social @democracydocket.com & @govpritzker.illinois.gov are also #HEROES #ForDemocracy.

I wish we had a #Democrat Governor here in #GOPgerrymanderedForDecades #Indiana, not to mention a HELLUVA lot less GOP in the state legislature & in the USA Congress.

#lifelong #bluedot old enough to remember:
1) my 1st vote was in the 1980 election (Reagan => destruction of USA's humanity),
2) my #GOPgerrymanderedForDECADES #redstate of #Indiana went #blue for @barackobama.bsky.social.

#StandUpToBullies

#lifelong #bluedot in #GOPgerrymanderedForDECADES #RedState #Indiana ~ took down flag during 45. Raised it during 46. Thought about taking it down after 2024 election results were announced (in four hours; sure, whatever). Decided, "NO. It's MY flag, not MAGAs".
My 🇺🇸 breaks my heart every day.

I read it as soon as they released it.
But hey, I'm just a #lifelong #bluedot stuck in a #GOPgerrymanderedForDECADES #redstate who took it at face value.
