Look, folks — The SnydeReport rarely asks for help unless it’s important, and this one hits close to home. My cousin Sara has fought like hell her entire life against cystic fibrosis, finally getting a double-lung transplant in February. Twelve hours on an operating table later, she can breathe again — but the fight doesn’t end when you wake up. She’s recovering, living on a fixed income, facing possible rejection of her new lungs and now facing another hurdle: her loyal black lab, Tucker, needs surgery for a torn ligament. The dog who’s been her constant companion through every breathless night now needs her — and us — to step up.
We’re not asking for the moon here — every donation, big or small, will go directly to help Sara and Tucker. And because we’re The SnydeReport, we’ll sweeten the deal: any donation gets you a FREE VIP SnydeReport subscription. You’ll help someone who’s literally fighting to stay alive and keep up on all the snide political chaos Indiana has to offer. Let’s show that independent media — and Hoosier hearts — still give a damn.

In a review of the Indiana Supreme Court’s 2024-25 fiscal year, statistics show the workload was about the same as in previous years, but Chief Justice Loretta Rush noted, the public has filed more complaints against attorneys, more lawyers have sought mental health counseling, and the judiciary has faced more threats.
Rokita acknowledged that he “really meant” what he said in the affidavit. Forced into making a choice between admitting he lied to the court in a sworn document or admitting he lied to the public in his statement, our attorney general decided that owning up to lying to the public was the more acceptable option.
Huntington is among the thousands of municipalities scrambling to make ends meet as the impacts from Senate Bill 1 are starting to be felt.
