  1. Holcomb’s legacy of mismanagement, and failed oversight by Republicans in the General Assembly have come home to roost. Unchecked egos have consequences.

  2. The Office of the Governor should investigate why the head of IEDC Entrepreneurship and Innovation bla bla David Roberts formed a special purpose entity in Cayman Islands with the master developmer of the Purdue Discovery Park, called Project Energy Reimagined, a $250M fund that buys Wejo and it is acissed of stealing $50M from the Bank of China.

  3. The Purdue Discovery Park master developer Michael Browning was the chairman of Duke Energy, until he was fired in 2021 by the board for self dealing with this IEDC group lead by Chad Pottman, Paul Mitcharll and David Roberts.

    But they never stopped self dealing.

    In 2015 the 3 amigos were famous for another scandal called Vision Fleet.

    Time for these guys to get a real job, in some other state.
