group is to play together. I cannot even critique Wms or James in the backfield because the O Line play is so bad.

break ties with Rudolph and find a Charlie Partridge caliber O Line coach. IMHO, this team should have had a decision made third week into fall camp, have the guys tel, and then come out of the gate with tweaks to make. The O Line analysis by Langdon was very revealing about how unprepared this

Hey Eric, I could not find your email. Every year the O Line is putrid at the beginning of the season, at the beginning of games, there is always Rudolph Drama about one position that he doesn't get set until just before the first game, giving no time for the O Line to gel. Is it time for ND to 1/3

We have got to shore up the "Pass through" millionaire tax breaks. People own businesses and avoid the higher business tax rate by owning them as self employed operations. They avoid the 35% tax and pay the 20% tax. This has shifted millions from the lower classes to the richest 1%. #PassThroughTax

Please give us some receipts, please. I would be very interested in these developments. Of course, nothing will be done about Russian aggression until their useful idiot is out of the White House. (Useful idiot is an intelligence technical term)

One of the best things about Indiana University winning the National Championship in football last year was that now the entire nation has been exposed to the amazing voice and energy of the Great HoFer Don Fischer. #IUFB #DonFischer #IndianaUniversity

He reminds me of everyone who ever was a child of a Notre Dame professor who went to Saint Joseph's High School, South Bend, IN. If you are from SB, you will know exactly what I mean.

Saying that the Constitution, when it was written, said that blacks were 3/5 of a human being is NOT some radical left political statement. It is a cruel, unimaginable, disgusting compromise with the Devil, from which we are STILL whatabouting our way to condemnation. #Immoral

I wouldn't vote for him either if I found out he supported the "uncommitted" group. They were foundational in the loss in Michigan. In fact, what they did was endorse the genocide by making it possible for Trump to be elected.

Around 7,000 Haitians Please do not cry to me, businesses who will be disrupted by removing $209 million from the State's economy, and $55 million in taxes because YOU voted for a racist. You are racist by default here and are reaping the reward for your racism. #IndianaRacism #TPSforareason #TPS

need to start thinking now about a full package of judicial reforms: new justices, new circuits, new district courts, ethics reforms, docket reforms, and transparency reforms.

It is time to make public utilities public utilities in Northwest Indiana. Abolish NIPSCO (Northern Indiana Public Service Company) and NiSource. They spend money on so many other things than our utilities, engage in speculative property sales to AI. TIME FOR THE PEOPLE TO OWN AND HAVE A SAY!

Under "our shameful past." 2. Constitutional Amendments to enshrined voting rights for everyone. 3. Officially require textbooks to say that the purpose of the Civil War was to keep slavery. 4. Go after alt-right groups and make them illegal. Racism is a national security issue now.

When Trump is gone, we will need to make atonement for all the children killed in this senseless war. Also, we will need to repent as a nation: 1. No more symbols of.thw Confederacy. None. No names on anything, Universities, military bases, statues, nothing. All of it

Are you kidding me? In my lifetime, all I have ever heard is how small towns are "the heart of America" and "Big Cities" are only known for crime. What a load of hooey. You may not have meant it like this, but agrarian life is no more and no less as important as urban life. We are both American,thx!

I felt this way with the Coming Home Network on EWTN. They have helped some protestant ministry converts who become Catholic, for sure, but the focus, whether intentionally or not, to use the lives of others as entertainment for their program. I think at that time, they just didn't know how to help.

Yes, I agree, but where I live, it is still dark when the kids go to the bus stop. Also, most of my neighbors in lower middle class Hammond drive their kids. Is this normal?

I started calling out basic immorality in my homilies at the beginning of 2025. I had some people comment online to them that "he is getting political." No, lying is a sin. Adultery is a sin. Defrauding people is a sin. Political corruption killed Jesus and his followers. It is not political.

So, I am anything but a "radical liberal," even I notice that the asymmetrical double standard of liberals being to account for their contempt, but the ultra-right not being held to account for their contempt for the left is rich.
