  1. Let’s have more coverage of those prosecuted for their childish and dangerous conduct. It would also be mature for Braun to denounce this criminal conduct.

    1. “Braun denounced the attempts as “absolutely terrible” on Thursday, telling reporters, “That’s way beyond the pale. Unacceptable. … All I’m saying as governor, leader of the state: stop it.”…he did.

    2. Braun’s aggressive rhetoric is what started this. He needs to go way beyond telling people to stop and make the choice to halt the attempt at redistricting. Shut it down.

    1. It’s not going to stop until they bully or threaten five senators into changing their minds.

      The Republican Party is increasingly indistinguishable from a terrorist organization. The party has been taken over by post-liberal cranks and groyper delinquents who hate America and want to live in a fake democracy like Hungary or Russia. The so-called serious people in the party who thought silence and appeasement on their parts would cause “all this” to blow over were wrong.

  2. Gov. Braun is TRUMP’s loyal assistant dictator over Indiana tasked with imposing his dear leader’s wishes to redraw Congressional district maps on the people in Indiana

    1. This goes way beyond redistricting. We are now in an environment where the king brooks no opposition and is unafraid to shout (on social media) “off with their heads”. Any opposing view is apparently now “treason”, and there are Red Hat brownshirts out there to act as enforcers.

  3. Just +-6 years ago three SCOTUS justices were swatted, threatened, homes surrounded with protestors and vandalized, all while Schumer and Pelosi promoted and sanctioned it all.
    Amazing how opinions for such actions have changed since then.

    1. Go ahead and share your source, Kevin. Also, make sure to include their names so we can see where Biden pardoned them for their behavior, just like the January 6 treasoners.

    2. It’s never right. And this is a perfect example of the kind of “whataboutism” that the MAGA movement regularly employs. “The other side did it once, what about that?”

      Never heard “two wrongs don’t make a right”?

    3. Yes, because protesting in a public street (their homes were never vandalized, that’s a lie) is the same as calling SWAT teams.

      Your false equivalence is hilarious.

    4. Sorry Joe, it was only 3 years ago not 6, immediately after Roe-Wade was reversed. On all networks and platforms for days on end. Brett K even had to move out of his house to protect his family.

  4. This is the sort of political behavior we will be seeing more of in Indiana if we don’t start “unelecting” some of the Hoosier supporters of our unhinged President. We need the RINOs back or alternativly some Independents or Democrats who still prefer democracy and politics without violence. The Indiana Senators seem to be beginning to understand this.
