MISHAWAKA, Ind. -- On November 16th, my wife and I welcomed the newest member of our family. Trudy Console French was born just before 8:00pm, weighing a perfect 7.5lbs. Named after a Charlie Daniels' song and her late grandmother, this girl is amazing. That's the sanitized description of how this bundle of joy came to be.

INDIANA -- While conservatives managed to sweep the State of Indiana and turn historically Democrat St. Joseph County to the GOP, school board races across the state were a major disappointment in local conservative circles.

ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. -- Less than one year ago, when Bidenflation was just starting to take hold and punish hard working taxpaying St. Joseph County citizens, the democrats on the St. Joseph County Council voted themselves significant raises – approximately 56%. It is noteworthy that every single democrat voted to give themselves the raise and every single Republican voted against the raise. Even the local legacy print media outlet wrote about this shocking raise.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- Two political outsiders claimed victory at the Indiana Republican State Convention in Indianapolis this past weekend: Diego Morales for secretary of state, and Dan Elliot for the state treasurer. If it were up to Indianapolis, we’d have elected different nominees.
