Sen. Deery. If you have to do all of this explaining as to how your bill is good, it probably isn’t very good at all. Save some face and dignity, withdraw it from Holcomb’s desk.

And I wonder how deery can explain his “YES” vote to allow puppy mills in Indiana, especially after W Laf and Tippecanoe county tried to stop them. Hope you all read about the Bull dog 9 month old puppy stolen/saved from the pet land pet store in Parma Ohio. The article says that the puppy is worth $6000! NO PUPPY THAT IS IN A PET STORE IS WORTH $6000! A puppy worth that kind of money has championship bloodlines and would never see a cage in a pet store. Good for the “rescuer”! I hope he wanted him as a sweet loving pet. Just remember that deery who obviously knows nothing about dog breeding or puppy mills should be feeling guilt now for voting AGAINST his constituents wishes.

How can anyone believe a word that deery says? Purdue and the rest of the universities, already have diversity, equity and inclusion. So what is he wanting? He wants to change the definition and meaning of these words to fit his and his ultra conservative backers meaning of these words to actually change the university to THEIR THINKING. Then what? Spread it all around the country and indoctrinate everyone to accept the white, Christian superiority as the rulers of every aspect of our lives.

What he wants is the same thing everyone in MAGA world wants - cheap wins so they can show the base they dominated the libs. He’s not going to do anything really important like stopping a pipeline because that means challenging his own party. But owning the libs, that gets you re-elected in a MAGA district even as their water is drained away.
