Will you be writing a column for another newspaper or online publication?Congratulations on your new job but I will miss your @indystar columns. Huge loss for @indystar subscribers.
Some professional news: I retire from @ballstate and move to @ShenandoahU as director of their school of business and the Eldon R. Lindsey professor of economics. Too many good things to say about both schools to attempt it here. thestarpress.com/story/news/… via @TheStarPress

Donald Trump ran for office for three reasons: 1) stay out of jail 2) exact revenge on his enemies 3) line his pockets Everything else he says is bullshit.

This folks, is leadership. Don’t have to agree with him, don’t have to like him, but he is doing what he thinks best for Indiana rather than appeasing someone who doesn’t live here.
Indiana Sen. Rod Bray was on CNN just now. “If you had a do over on indana’s redistricting vote, would you do it the same way? “Indiana’s gonna do things the way Indiana needs to do them. We’re not gonna base that decision on other states.” “So no regrets?” “No, no regrets.”

I graduated from @butleru in 2014. It’s now 12 years later and I’m getting married this weekend in South Carolina. Somehow, my former college advisor, @ScoBridge found my registry and got us a gift. The Butler connection truly lasts forever. One of a kind community.

More proof that Butler does belong in the Big East.

This award is a testament to the incredible work ethic and professionalism of @rogergrossman1 but Roger’s impact on the Warsaw community is even more noteworthy. Roger is a pillar of that city and the Warsaw school system. Everyone knows, admires, and respects Roger.
It would wrong to let this life-changing day go by without thank you's to @butleru @ButlerCCom and specifically @ScoBridge for giving a small town kid with a squeaky voice and no experience a chance to make it. And thank you, God. YOU made this all happen!

Thank you @GCNNow NBC2 for being only Fort Myers network affiliate to go live overnight with coverage of US-Venezuela conflict.

As Trump apparently is launching a military attack against Venezuela, it sure would be nice to have a functioning legislative branch right now.

Thank you to the PR staffs of the @Colts and @IndyEleven for allowing my @IUMediaSchool students to cover games this semester. Looking forward to spring semester where they will cover the @pacers, @IndyIgniteVB and the NCAA Final Four, Division II, III and NIT championship games

It’s not a good look when Indiana Governor Mike Braun and Lieutenant Governor Micah Beckwith both rush to post about the Mark Sanchez matter to score political points, before they have all the facts. Then they quietly delete their posts. We’re better than this. Maybe we’re not.

No. 11 Indiana defeated Iowa on the road in a gutty 20-15 win. Our own @nickrodecap and @avawegenke give their takeaways of Saturday's game from Kinnick Stadium. #iufb

Child-like behavior from Trump. The guy told him exactly what he wanted to hear, and our narcissistic, thinskinned, insecure leader lapped it up and then repeated it back to the state TV stenographers. Hard to fully comprehend how gullible and easily manipulated Trump is. Amazing
Trump: "Vladimir said just a little while ago, he said 'I've never seen anybody do so much so fast.' He said, 'your country is, like, hot as a pistol,' and a year ago he thought it was dead."

Pam Bondi in February: The Epstein client list is sitting on my desk right now to review. Pam Bondi today: There is no Epstein client list and no "further disclosure" of Epstein-related material "would be appropriate or warranted."

The last few days have truly been a low point for the American news media. And it’s all because journalists in this country—and their corporate masters—lack the courage to say what they all know and say endlessly in private: That @realDonaldTrump is stupid, and nuts. This shouldn’t be hard. But they make it so, for their readers, viewers, listeners, and the country as a whole. Most of the rest of the world got over this long ago.

Gotta have Mel Daniels and Roger Brown up there. Lose Vonnegut and Nabors.
In advance of Game 7: Let us take a moment to remember those who could not be with us here today.
