We need all hands on deck to defeat fascism.

Marion County Democratic Party leadership is pushing people out of the kitchen, instead of pulling up more chairs.

This is foolish to the point of self-destruction. Watch my latest video below, then read the newsletter in the comments.

Oh not at all! Thanks for clarifying though.

Indianapolis This Week 2.14.26: Fighting Data Centers
YouTube video by Jesse Brown for Indianapolis District 13 Indianapolis This Week 2.14.26: Fighting Data Centers

Friends and Constituents,

Today I have a less-polished video than usual, to accompany the text of the speech I gave on Thursday opposing the Metrobloks data center being thrust upon Martindale-Brightwood. Watch the video on Youtube, then read the speech in the screenshots.

Seems like some of my comments may have been less clear than I hoped in that committee meeting.

My point was that IndyGo riders were left shouldering the burden rather than the City doing so - which I think would have been appropriate. Asking riders to pay a dollar more shouldn't have happened.

It was designed by folks who had a podcast called Hoosier Daddy, based in Fort Wayne in 2020 - 2021.

Moderates are missing the moment and selling us out to the Epstein class.

The people demand fighters.

And yet losers like Ron Gibson blocked @jesseforindy.bsky.social's city county council proposal. Get in line or get out of the way!

Near Eastside

Near Eastside

Introduced by Councilor @jesseforindy.bsky.social at last night’s Indy Council Meeting- proposals that will at long last lower the speed limit to 25mph across the entire Near Eastside (areas marked with green X’s). Huge step as we work to implement safer designs across the neighborhood.

What's the Venn diagram look like between Beau Bayh's donors and the Epstein list at this point?

No family should have to choose between keeping a roof over their heads and risking being kidnapped by ICE.

Evict ICE, not us.

They definitely do hire security - they did in the past and they stepped it up after this incident. But I still think they should pay for more and keep the skyway open more often. I also think they should rely less on overtime IMPD for events.

I believe this is the same incident - last year there was a murder somewhere in/around the convention center. It was not a random attack, it was someone who went to murder a person who worked there. Horrifying and unacceptable.

TWG has enough money to give Mike Braun and Joe Hogsett tens of thousands of dollars in campaign donations - but not enough to provide security?

What in the Gestapo is going on in Grand Rapids?

Watch this activist get arrested *mid-interview* for speaking out against U.S. action in Venezuela.

The "Democratic" cartel is seeking to install another right-wing collaborator Council President after Vop Osili resigned from the position in disgrace.

Indianapolis This Week 11.30.25 Elections and Dictatorship Joe Hogsett is a corrupt and terrible mayor who is in league with the far-right in order to privatize education. Let's stop him! TikTok video by Jesse Brown

Republicans at the Statehouse are undermining our elections in order to get the unpopular outcome they want.

Mayor Joe Hogsett is doing the same thing.

Just wacky statehouse drama. Which isn't to say they might try to do that, but I don't think that's something high on anyone's agenda.
