Just another normal day on the @IndyGoBus This clip was captured by one of the residents in our city. But tell me more about how shuttling hoodlums around our community for $430 Million Dollars a year is a real benefit to the city and boost for local businesses. Apparently these fine, respectable, upstanding young citizens had been spotted pointing firearms at bystanders before hopping on the bus. This is *exactly* why the bus line will never extend beyond 96th St… Who in their right mind would ever want to connect with a system like this? Also, if your 15yr old child is caught running around the city pointing guns at people… or worse, shooting people, then the parents should be charged too... The city and IMPD shouldn’t have to be a parent to your criminal minors just because you refuse to be one for them.

This chart is based on the available ridership statistics for @IndyGoBus over the last 45yrs from 1980 - 2025. Back in 1984, the year with the highest ridership, total operating expenses clocked in at: $18,200,000.00 But in 2025 those expenses ballooned to a total operating cost of: $146,800,000.00. Mind you that also doesn’t factor in their capital investments and debt service, which drive the cost even higher. Back in 1984 Indianapolis had an estimated population of 772,000, but by 2025 that had increased to 992,000. A growth of about 28%! 1984 is often cited as the peak of IndyGo ridership estimated to be: 15,507,190. In 2025 that figure had fallen to only a ridership estimate of: 6,796,328. Can any of you “Bus Bros” explain why despite the overall city population increasing by 28%, and the overall IndyGo budget increasing by a whopping 703% overall ridership DECLINED by 56%??? Why are we paying 703% MORE for a service used 56% LESS? We have more buses, more bus lines, more population, but fewer riders. If this was a service people actually wanted then why would that be the case? It’s a giant money laundering scheme for Democrats.

ZERO people at the bus stop during 5-o’clock Rush Hour at the IndyGo bus stop at 42nd & College Ave. Where are all the bus riders I keep hearing so much about? If they don’t use the bus during RUSH HOUR then when do they actually use them? Because the bus stops are empty in the mornings too… and the afternoons…

After seeing this “block party” posted, I decided to take a quick drive through the “urban tacticalism” at 10th and Bosart. Goofiest design I've seen in a while. They’ve managed to create a bottleneck right in front of Chase Bank in the name of “traffic calming,” practically begging for a traffic jam, while apparently sacrificing parking spots in front of small businesses. But the best part? This supposedly “transit forward” design lets an @IndyGoBus move through their party while making the person in the Ford go around it. Transit gets the VIP treatment. Everyone else? Figure it out. SAUCE: instagram.com/p/DeX07eqMXVT/

Barack Obama: “I may have used the IRS to systematically target and discriminate against Conservative fundraising groups. But at least I was polite about it!!” npr.org/2017/10/27/560308997…
Barack Obama: "There's a decency we should expect out of our public officials. I don't know what's happened where the standards of behavior have gotten so low. Because character matters."

Tonight I drove all the way down to Brazil, Indiana (the birthplace of popcorn tycoon Orville Redenbacher) to try out the much-acclaimed Honeysuckle Hill Bee-stro & Cottage! They were highly recommended by my buddy @RobMKendall and totally lived up to the hype! Wow! What a great little restaurant! It was so unexpectedly good, and the price for the meal was extremely fair for the high quality of the food and service. The atmosphere is quaint and relaxing, everything is clean and the grounds are picturesque. I had the beef wellington with mashed potatoes and creamed corn, a house salad with home honey dressing (made in-house), an apple pie for dessert, and a lemonade. All for a grand total of $36.35 which again, I felt was extremely fair. The server was very hospitable and attentive, and I met the owners Jodi and Andy who seemed like really warm and lovely people. Despite the drive to Brazil being an hour away from my home in Indianapolis I would be pleased to come out here again, and recommend this place to my friends! It really was ‘a little bit out of the way, but very much out of the ordinary!’ 5/5 ⭐️

Donald Trump endorses Max Ding-a-ling 🛎️ for Indiana Secretary of State. This is the same President Trump that endorsed Ron Alting right? The most Liberal member of the Indiana General Assembly that’s also set to resign after shoplifting allegations? That doesn’t sound like a very trustworthy endorsement to me.

Harry James “It’s Been a Long, Long Time” performed on my Victor XVII with a brass #4 reproducer and a soft-tone needle. This song was made famous by Avengers: Endgame (2019) which managed to do for this disc what The Shining (1980) did for “Midnight, the Stars and You”. I love how even today pop culture continues to be a medium for reviving and sharing old music. Getting to own this disc is a treat! Found in a random assortment of records that Carlton B. Smith and I rescued from Morristown, IN, recently!

@RobMKendall literally the only person on wibc I listen to now is @EthanHatcher because he seems like the only person still challenging politicians on that station... Tony katz just pisses me off because like you said he doesn't have the drive to hold anybody accountable .. Oh btw I listen to you while I deliver mail throughout the day.

A French woman who supported France’s left wing government and the protests asks why left wing protesters are looting her store. It’s a perfect distillation of left wing decisions, this is where it all leads.

Absolutely. 120%. This should not be limited to just parents of school shooters either. If *any* minor child is running around the city committing violent crimes and the parents contributed to their delinquency by providing them with the means to commit mayhem, the parents should also be charged. Society at large should not be forced to be the last line of defense for negligent parents and their hellions.

How broken does your brain have to be to even come up with nonsense like this? Leftism has totally destroyed an entire generation of white women with a savior complex. If you wonder why the roads around this city have gotten so bad, it’s because there’s an entire cohort of shrieking banshees who think like this that heavily influence the design choices. “cArS aRe RaCiSt” 🤪
