BREAKING: Thank You, Indiana RINOS…for Being Totally Worthless.

Thank you, Indiana Republicans, for being totally worthless. We needed this redistricting push to be successful. It sailed through the state house, but it faced problems in the Senate. One Republican, Michael Bohacek, claimed he was opposing this measure because President Trump called Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz “seriously retarded.” That’s ridiculous. He was likely opposed from the get-go, but needed a reason.  

Either way, the Indiana State Senate decided to nuke this crucial 2026 midterm insurance ploy (via NBC News): 

The Indiana Senate voted against a new Republican-drawn congressional map on Thursday, rejecting a bid led by President Donald Trump aimed at boosting the party in next year’s midterm elections. 

The vote marked a rare and stunning instance of elected Republicans rebuking Trump, who had pressured Indiana lawmakers for months to pass new district lines. The GOP leaders of Indiana’s Senate had long resisted joining the unusual mid-decade redistricting battle playing out across the country, saying there wasn’t enough support in the chamber for a new map that was designed to dismantle the state’s two Democratic-controlled districts. 

They ultimately agreed to hold a vote to settle the issue, as Trump and national Republicans pledged to back primary challengers to those who opposed the map, and as a growing number of Indiana lawmakers faced violent threats and harassment. 

But even after the state House approved the new map last week, it failed in the state Senate by a vote of 31-19. 

I don’t know which is worse: woke Democrats or spineless RINO Republicans. Both can be thrown off the roof.

UPDATE: Here are the 21 Indiana Republicans who decided to betray us.
