Dec. 11, 2025, 5:00 AM ESTBy Jane C. TimmINDIANAPOLIS — Indiana state senators will decide the fate of a Republican-drawn congressional map Thursday, settling a divisive, monthslong clash between GOP lawmakers who have resisted the redistricting push and President Donald Trump, who has urged them to forge ahead. The proposed map, which the state House passed last week, would dismantle Indiana’s two Democratic-held districts, the latest front in Trump’s national campaign to shore up the GOP’s slim House majority in next year’s midterm elections. Republicans in Texas, North Carolina and Missouri have answered Trump’s call, passing new maps designed to net the party additional seats, but Indiana lawmakers were hesitant to join the unusual mid-decade redistricting fight for months. Republican leaders in the state Senate have said repeatedly there aren’t enough votes in the chamber to pass the legislation, despite public and private entreaties from the White House. Trump, Vice President JD Vance and other national Republicans have been pressuring lawmakers in the state through phone calls, in-person visits in Indiana and Washington and social media posts, threatening to back primary challengers to those who oppose the map.Trump specifically called out Rodric Bray, the Republican leader of the state Senate, Wednesday night on Truth Social. “Anybody that votes against Redistricting, and the SUCCESS of the Republican Party in D.C., will be, I am sure, met with a MAGA Primary in the Spring,” Trump wrote. “Rod Bray and his friends won’t be in Politics for long, and I will do everything within my power to make sure that they will not hurt the Republican Party, and our Country, again.”It has become an “all hands on deck” effort among Republicans in Washington to get Indiana lawmakers on board, according to a senior GOP leadership source familiar with the matter. House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and members of his leadership team have been calling state lawmakers to urge them to support the new map. Top Republicans in Washington believe the vote is going to be close, but they think they are within striking distance, saying they have at least 20 solid “yes” votes as they continue to work other holdouts, the source said. Republicans will need the support of at least 25 members of the 50-person Legislature for the map to pass. Republican Lt. Gov. Micah Beckwith has the ability to break a tie. The saga took an alarming turn in recent weeks, with at least 11 elected Republicans in Indiana facing violent threats and swatting attempts, which are when someone makes a false police report in an attempt to instigate a frightening police response.“They’re kind of like ‘I’m going to firebomb your house in the middle of the night and kill you and anyone else in there as you come running out.’ There’s a number of those; I got three in one day,” said Sen. Michael Crider, the Republican majority whip, who has said he will vote against the bill and has faced such threats. Crider, who worked in law enforcement, said he taught his colleagues how to alert their local police to try to head off swatting attempts. “This is my 14th year, and I’ve not seen this kind of tactics,” he said.Sen. Dan Dernulc, another Republican who has come out against the legislation, said he has received the same pipe bomb threat as Crider, which particularly alarmed his wife. He was swatted twice, and pizzas have repeatedly been sent to his home, another intimidation tactic. He said police have stationed a squad car outside his home to ensure his and his family’s safety.“It doesn’t affect the way I’m going to vote,” he told NBC News. “But it’s still unnerving. I don’t want to be killed.”Demonstrators at a rally against redistricting at the Indiana Statehouse in Indianapolis.Kaiti Sullivan / Bloomberg via Getty Images fileState Sen. Greg Goode, a Republican who has been singled out by Trump on social media but has not said how he will vote, was also the victim of a swatting attempt. Someone claiming to be Goode told police he’d murdered his wife and child, prompting an alarming police response.”My front door was kicked in. I had weapons pointed directly at me. I am so grateful that I was home. My wife and son were in the basement getting Christmas decorations,” he said. Goode said that he has a “pretty good idea” of how he’ll vote but that he intends to keep listening to debate until the final vote. “I believe that I owe it to my colleagues to keep an open mind,” he said.The bill passed out of the Senate Elections Committee on Monday after hours of debate and public testimony, much of it in opposition to the new map.Sen. Mike Gaskill, the Republican who sponsored the bill in the chamber, acknowledged to his colleagues that the fight has been unsavory.”Political gerrymandering isn’t comfortable, I understand that, but it’s the environment that we’re in,” he said. “This is a very small part that we can play in rebalancing the scales on a national basis.”In conversations across the Statehouse, lawmakers seemed weary and rattled by the monthslong political fight and its consequences.Many thought Bray’s announcement last month that there wasn’t enough support to pass the map would be the end of it. Now, they hope Thursday’s vote will settle the issue.“I think that’s the point,” said Megan Robertson, who leads an environmental group, Indiana Conservation Voters, that has been spending and mobilizing against the redistricting bill. “They just feel like they have to vote on it on the floor, because otherwise it’s never going to end.”Jane C.

Dec. 11, 2025, 6:32 AM ESTBy Greg RosensteinThe injury was so gruesome that the only acceptable way to watch it was through your fingers. Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, dragged to the grass by a Seattle Seahawks defender on a running play last month, tried to break his fall with his left hand but ended up bending his elbow in a manner it shouldn’t be bent. Writhing in pain, he lay on his back, grimacing. Fans in the stadium were stunned, not knowing whether their star might be out for the foreseeable future. Countless fantasy football team owners who had Daniels on their teams had their own concern: how much time he’d miss and how it would affect their seasons. Pulling up social media, they turned to the likes of Jeff Mueller.Mueller is among a growing number of medical professionals who have found an audience in NFL fans, fantasy football players and sports bettors, all of whom seek information about players’ availability before official announcements are made.Jayden Daniels is helped off the field after an injury against the Seattle Seahawks on Nov. 2. Scott Taetsch / Getty ImagesWithin minutes after an athlete goes down, the doctors post across Instagram, X, YouTube and TikTok their projected injury diagnoses and how many games they envision the player to miss. Later, throughout the week, they give updates on the player’s game availability. What they say may either calm nerves or lead to utter panic. “That desire for injury information has increased over the years because fantasy football has grown with multiple avenues of playing with redraft, dynasty, best ball, guillotine and various other leagues,” Mueller said. “People crave instant information and intel on topics such as injuries because it can have a big impact on their own leagues, betting, odds and other possible impacts even though we often get factual information several days later.” Mueller is a physical therapist with more than a decade of experience at a sports medicine clinic. His background — and that of seemingly every other medical professional analyzing sports injuries on social media today — has come into question when a diagnosis is made. Are they actually qualified to provide accurate calls without X-rays or examining players in person?NBC News spoke with six medical professionals with roles from orthopedic surgeon to physical therapist. Like all content creators, the doctors can monetize injury analysis by driving traffic to their platforms. The larger the following, the higher the chance of financial gain. Some have under 10,000 followers, while others are in the hundreds of thousands across platforms. But all treat patients first and look at NFL injuries second. “This is my side hustle. This isn’t my full-time job,” said Tom Christ, a physical therapist outside Philadelphia. “So if I’m in the clinic and we get some kind of [NFL] news breaking, there’s a good chance I’m not looking at my phone for three straight hours when I’m working.” Christ estimates he spends 10 to 15 hours per week on content creation, not including watching games. He says his game setup is fairly bare-bones: He watches NFL RedZone and takes in as many replays as possible if a player goes down. “When an injury happens, I’ll record it on my phone and then crop it so you don’t see my walls,” he joked. Dr. Jesse Morse’s routine is a bit more nuanced. A physician in family and sports medicine who specializes in injuries and musculoskeletal pain, he runs a clinic in Florida that focuses on regenerative medicine. On an NFL Sunday, he also watches RedZone but has a team of two to five people “that will be spotters for me” and alert him of any injury. They then make sure he has video of all the angles and an updated injury history of the player to best assess the situation. Morse, who spends roughly 20 to 30 hours per week during the season analyzing football injuries, says his background and expertise allow him to have a strong indication of what occurred and the timetable for a player to return “within probably 20 seconds.” His aim is to have a full breakdown online in 10 minutes. He’s quick to point out that not all injuries are created equal and that factors like previous health situations could make a diagnosis more difficult. Severity is also crucial.
