It's Showtime for Mayor Buttigieg V25, N19 Thursday, Jan. 30, 2020 It’s showtime for Mayor Buttigieg He appears to be fading in Iowa, but his ground game has him in the mix for Monday’s caucuses By BRIAN A. HOWEY INDIANAPOLIS – Mitch Daniels notes the modern penchant of American voters who have voted for the polar oppo- site of the presidential status quo, whether it is JFK following Ike, or Donald Trump on the heels of Barack Obama. Demo- cratic voters in Iowa face a huge fork in the road next Monday night when they caucus. Do they pass the torch to a new generation, which is the clarion message of Or do they opt for Joe Biden, who has premised former South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg?

  • Analysis of Talk Shows Between Obama and Trump Administrations by Jack Norcross — 69
    Analysis of Talk Shows Between Obama and Trump Administrations by Jack Norcross — 69 An Analysis of the Political Affiliations and Professions of Sunday Talk Show Guests Between the Obama and Trump Administrations Jack Norcross Journalism Elon University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in an undergraduate senior capstone course in communications Abstract The Sunday morning talk shows have long been a platform for high-quality journalism and analysis of the week’s top political headlines. This research will compare guests between the first two years of Barack Obama’s presidency and the first two years of Donald Trump’s presidency. A quantitative content analysis of television transcripts was used to identify changes in both the political affiliations and profession of the guests who appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” CBS’s “Face the Nation,” ABC’s “This Week” and “Fox News Sunday” between the two administrations. Findings indicated that the dominant political viewpoint of guests differed by show during the Obama administration, while all shows hosted more Republicans than Democrats during the Trump administration. Furthermore, U.S. Senators and TV/Radio journalists were cumulatively the most frequent guests on the programs. I. Introduction Sunday morning political talk shows have been around since 1947, when NBC’s “Meet the Press” brought on politicians and newsmakers to be questioned by members of the press. The show’s format would evolve over the next 70 years, and give rise to fellow Sunday morning competitors including ABC’s “This Week,” CBS’s “Face the Nation” and “Fox News Sunday.” Since the mid-twentieth century, the overall media landscape significantly changed with the rise of cable news, social media and the consumption of online content.

Trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States until our country's ANNOUNCEMENTS representatives can figure out what is going on. According to Pew Research, ENDORSEMENTS among others, there is great hatred towards Americans by large segments of the Muslim population. Most recently, a poll from the Center for Security ADS Policy released data showing "25% of those polled agreed that violence against Americans here in the United States is justified as a part of the global jihad" and 51% of those polled, "agreed that Muslims in America should have the choice of being governed according to Shariah."

HOWEY INDIANAPOLIS – There couldn’t be a more emphatic contrast when it comes to major party chairs Kyle Hupfer of the Re- publicans and John Zody of the Democrats. Hupfer is essentially undefeated in statewide races and federal seats beyond the 1st and 7th CDs. Zody has been shut out, save for three Indiana House seats and a Senate pickup this cycle, coming after a GOP shakeup in 2016 that brought about the Donald Trump/Mike Pence dy- namic that has dominated ever since.

Washington St. Indianapolis, IN 46204 Re: COVID-19 Response moving forward Governor Holcomb, We want to thank you for the actions you have taken to mitigate the spread of the virus in our state. Our continued actions will hopefully continue to flatten the curve of this virus's spread. Although we do see many Hoosiers staying home to keep people healthy, the continued fight against COVID- 19 has revealed new concerns that we must face together as state leaders. We ultimately want to address three serious concerns: the issue of worker safety, the distribution of PPE across the state and the composition of your Economic Relief and Recovery Team. Your executive order 20-18 made it clear that essential businesses can stay open but must follow social distancing and other CDC guidelines to promote a safe, healthy workplace. These include spacing employees at least six feet apart, providing hand sanitizer and separating vulnerable popu- lations. Unfortunately, a growing number of our constituents are reporting that their workplaces are not following the guidelines in the Executive Order, making them unsafe places at this time. Em- ployees are being forced to work within close proximity of each other, and masks are either not re- quired or not allowed. The evidence of this noncompliance is clear. For example, COVID-19 is spreading rapidly through our steel plants, with cases growing each day.

  • Indiana State Senate
    A report to supporters and members of Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, and allied organizations. This report will be updated as additional election results are received in the hours and days following. Another Election for the Record Books in Indiana Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), the non-partisan political action program of the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, scored a very successful general election. 48 of 49 IBRG- endorsed candidates facing opposition were victorious, including Republicans and Democrats. Forty-three (43) additional endorsed candidates did not face general election challenges. Twelve (12) new legislators won with IBRG-endorsements. IBRG was significantly-engaged in support of six (6) top-target challenger and open-seat races, as well as successfully defending twelve (12) pro-economy incumbents seriously challenged with defeat. In one of the most dramatic turn of events in years, Republicans won significant battles for state legislative seats across the state to expand their “quorum-proof majorities.” These victories were particularly surprising to those working for months closely in campaigns and candidates, as Indiana’s public opinion environment on issues and views of incumbents was - right up until Election Day - about as bad an environment for Republicans and incumbents as seen in years. This marks the third election cycle in a row that Republicans have expanded their margins in the Indiana House and Senate. The Republicans won a net two (2) seat gain in the Indiana House of Representatives to achieve a 71-29 margin. Four (4) incumbent legislators lost reelection bids in the House (one Republican and three Democrats).
