Gary Snyder and Dr. Terry Goodin cut through the cow manure of politics to expose what’s really happening in America’s heartland. From the barn to the Beltway, they roast the absurdity of importing cheap Argentine beef while American farmers fight to stay afloat. Forget the “pro-farmer” talking points — this is about billionaire back-slaps and backroom deals that leave rural America holding the bag. The duo doesn’t just talk cattle; they talk class warfare disguised as economic policy, connecting the dots between Wall Street greed, government apathy, and a history lesson straight out of the Great Depression playbook.



As Trump pushes another “America First” gimmick that screws over actual Americans, Snyder and Goodin remind us that farmers are the backbone — not the afterthought — of this country. They dissect how “importing lower-quality beef” really means exporting rural livelihoods, and why every struggling Hoosier and heartland worker should be paying attention. It’s sharp, it’s savage, and it’s Snyde — exactly the kind of truth the political elite can’t digest.

Braun Can’t Even Find the Votes

After weeks of chest-thumping about “fair representation,” Mike Braun’s grand redistricting crusade hit a wall made of his own party. Turns out, when you spend years drawing maps so skewed they make Escher jealous, it’s hard to sell your colleagues on doing it again mid-decade. The self-proclaimed “party of strength” can’t even whip 26 votes in a 40-seat supermajority — proving once again that Hoosier Republicans love absolute power, they just hate doing the math.

Hoosiers say they're anxious about status of SNAP benefits

The possible pause in SNAP funds because of the government shutdown has some Hoosiers feeling like collateral damage. Samantha Bandy said she's focusing on making ends meet for her and her children after finding out her SNAP benefits might be paused until further notice because of the federal government shutdown.

Higher grocery prices continue to hit Hoosiers

Rising grocery costs continue to stretch the budgets of Hoosier families as the potential for a federal government shutdown threatens to pause food assistance payments. WRTV reached to experts who shared tips on how to save.

The Party of Family Values Just Put Dinner on Layaway

Nothing says “fiscal responsibility” like starving working families to make a point. As the federal shutdown limps into its third week, Hoosier families are discovering what happens when Trump and the MAGA Congress confuses cruelty with competence.

🌽 Secession for Dummies: Hoosiers Host Illinois’ Midlife Crisis Meeting

Indiana’s brand-new “Boundary Adjustment Commission” met to discuss swallowing a chunk of Illinois—except, minor detail, Illinois didn’t bother to show up. The six Hoosiers held court in Terre Haute, livestreaming their fantasy about adopting 74 disgruntled Trump-country counties while ignoring that Illinois is $250 billion in debt and, oh yeah, would have to agree to it. 

Mitch Daniels: Fellow Republicans, fellow Hoosiers: Redistricting now is a bad idea

My home state of Indiana is on the national Republican target list for new lines, as part of the quest to ensure continued control of the House. While the outcome sought is one I support, the tactic being employed to get there is not, and I hope earnestly that my state’s leaders will politely decline to participate.

Heating bills could average $1,000 this winter. Here are simple ways to save

Whether you heat your home with gas or electricity, millions of Americans are expected to have higher heating bills this winter. In its Winter Price Outlook, the National Energy Assistance Directors Association estimates home heating will cost nearly 8% more than last year, averaging $976.

Tucker threatens to beat up IU student who raised CIA ties...

Tucker Carlson lost his trademark smirk faster than his Fox contract when a IU MAGA college kid suggested his late father was CIA. The irony? A man who’s made a career spinning conspiracy theories suddenly couldn’t handle one pointed his way. Watching Tucker short-circuit over a student question at a Turning Point rally was the closest thing to truth serum he’s ever experienced — live, in front of a sold-out crowd of the easily misled.

‘EVERYTHING’S AT RISK’: Black lawmakers fear redistricting in Indiana will disenfranchise minorities

Even as they conceded their Republican colleagues could draw new congressional maps that would likely boot both Democrats from the state’s congressional delegation, members of the Indiana Black Legislative Caucus tried to increase the pressure on Gov. Mike Braun and GOP lawmakers to not redistrict before the November 2026 midterm election by hammering on the “real problems” facing Hoosiers.

🚧 Mayor Pete Pokes the Cornfield Coup

Pete Buttigieg wasted no time taking a victory lap after Indiana Republicans admitted they couldn’t even wrangle the votes to redraw their own gerrymander. With Trump’s “inevitable” redistricting push collapsing in the Hoosier cornfields, Buttigieg couldn’t resist pointing out the obvious — that even MAGA country is getting tired of doing Trump’s homework. It’s the political equivalent of watching the class clown finally get detention — loud, overdue, and oddly satisfying.

Indiana cities don't need National Guard. We need investment.

That’s why the city and local police department have launched two coordinated public safety initiatives designed to keep residents safe through proactive and community-centered policing.

However, the long-term financial impacts of Senate Enrolled Act 1 are making it difficult to invest in programs like these.

NATIONAL DEBT SURGES PAST $38 TRILLION AS SPENDING SPIRALS

The U.S. national debt has surged past $38 trillion, according to the U.S. Treasury Department, just two months after surpassing previous forecasts to reach $37 trillion in August.

Ken Casey of Dropkick Murphys: ‘I Will Go to the Mat’ for ‘True American’ Bad Bunny

Massachusetts has a rich history of giving the middle finger to tyrants and bloated politicians, and the Dropkick Murphys have been providing the backing track to Boston’s antiauthoritarianism since the 1990s. Already an outspoken critic of Donald Trump, frontman Ken Casey is calling for the punk artists and musicians to “never take shit from a bully,” and to “stand up and push back” against the president and his agenda.
