Democrat candidate for Secretary of State? 5 00:00:11,600 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 2: Bo Hello, Hey, how are you doing? Rom all right? 6 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: So, first question, why would you want to do this 7 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,560 Speaker 1: to yourself? You've got a pretty good life, You're working 8 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: for a law firm, you know, great family. Why are 9 00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:24,319 Speaker 1: you running for secretary of state? 10 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? I was raised in a family of public servants, 11 00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 2: and I was always taught that public servants should serve 12 00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 2: people and not themselves. And I'm looking at our state. 13 00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:35,160 Speaker 2: I'm seeing too often that the folks in the state House, 14 00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 2: and particularly the Secretary of State, are serving themselves. He's 15 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 2: using his position as an elected official to benefit himself, 16 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 2: to enrich himself, to help his friends and family. I mean, 17 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: the guy spent ninety thousand dollars of the taxpayer money 18 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 2: on a luxury suv. 19 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: He's a lot of money. 20 00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,240 Speaker 2: That's a lot of money. That's well, that's not just 21 00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,839 Speaker 2: a lot of money. That's more than the averageosier makes 22 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 2: an entire year. He's flown around the world, doesn't tell 23 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,560 Speaker 2: us who's paying for those trips, the purpose of the travel. 24 00:00:56,920 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 2: He's increased his own salary, his office, head count, et cetera. 25 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,440 Speaker 2: The list on. I want to live a life of service. 26 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 2: I look at I was in the Marine Corps. When 27 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 2: you see a problem in the Marine Corps, you run towarty, 28 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 2: you try and fix it. The secretary of State's office 29 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 2: is a big, big problem in our politics. My plan 30 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 2: is simple. Day one, We're going to clean up the 31 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 2: wasteful spending and the corruption. I'm gonna conduct an independent 32 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: audit of the offer. Yeah, can you like auction the 33 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,200 Speaker 2: car off the do you do that? We'll wait on 34 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 2: that one. Gotta we gotta see what the market looks like. 35 00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 2: And I think that thing's got some nice leather interior too. 36 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 2: Still that new car smell. 37 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:30,119 Speaker 1: So let's get I want to get to what you're 38 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,399 Speaker 1: gonna do as Secretary of State. But the first thing 39 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,399 Speaker 1: that fascinates me is, obviously, and I'm sure you get 40 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: this all the time, you come from a very famous 41 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:39,279 Speaker 1: political family. Your dad was the governor, senator, your grandpa 42 00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: is senator. Like, is that a do you do? You 43 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 1: step out of that shadow. Do you say, Look, here's 44 00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 1: who I am. I'm a part of this lineage of politics. 45 00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: How are you going to handle that as you run 46 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: this campaign. 47 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm very proud of my family's service to our 48 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 2: state and country. And you know, I'm not naive to 49 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 2: the circumstances of my birth. It's not something I could control. 50 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 2: It's just kind of who I am. But I got 51 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 2: to be my own person. I am my own person, 52 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 2: and I look forward to the next you know, thirteen 53 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: months or so to the November of twenty twenty six 54 00:02:10,760 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 2: showing people who I am. I got to be my 55 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 2: own person. You might remember in twenty sixteen, my dad 56 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 2: briefly lost his mind and tried to get I tried 57 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:18,959 Speaker 2: to get back involved in politics. 58 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 3: That's why that's why I ask you, because it's he says, 59 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 3: with sports, where it's like very hard to be you're 60 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 3: calling the arch manning by the way, So what if 61 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:29,399 Speaker 3: you're not very good, you could very well be very good. 62 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,960 Speaker 1: We hope you're very good. But you know, you see 63 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: that with sports right where it's like, you know, Michael 64 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: Jordan's son or now Lebron James son, it's very hard 65 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,960 Speaker 1: to follow in the footsteps of a famous fathers or grandfathers, 66 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,120 Speaker 1: And I just wonder you know how you'll you'll deal 67 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: with that because sometimes that's not easy for people. 68 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 2: It's not easy. But you might remember Peyton Manning. Yeah, 69 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: my sports hero, his dad, his dad when nobody Yeah, 70 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 2: So it does happen both ways. And look, my mom 71 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 2: always like say to me growing up, never never try 72 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 2: to be anyone else, because you're never gonna be good 73 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: at it. People could smell a phony from mile away. 74 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,079 Speaker 2: It's same in the marine corpse, same in business, same 75 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 2: in politics. You just got to be yourself. I'm just 76 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 2: gonna tell people the truth, particularly when it comes to 77 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: this office. Yeah, tell people what's going on. I mean 78 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: you've discussed this public polling on your show. I think 79 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 2: it was yesterday or the day before. 80 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:17,079 Speaker 1: Yep. 81 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: The public polling shows that nobody knows in our state 82 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 2: who Diego Morales is, and the people that do know 83 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 2: don't like him. 84 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 1: Is that good for you? By the way Bo buys 85 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: our guests, he's Democrat candidate for Secretary of State. Is 86 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: that good for you? Because on the one hand, he's 87 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: way underwater and people know who he is, the other hand, 88 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: all the Shenanigans he's pulled. People don't really know about 89 00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: it yet. Does that work in your favor? 90 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I'm gonna bust my butt. I'm gonna get 91 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: to all the ninety two counties of our state, and 92 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell people about this. How can you blame 93 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: people for their voting patterns when they're not informed about 94 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: the candidates. I'm going to get around our entire state. 95 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:52,360 Speaker 2: I'm gonna have the resources to do that with some media, 96 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,760 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna do it with my legs getting around 97 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 2: all ninety two counties. I'm gonna tell people about him. 98 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: I'm gonna tell people about me. I am the right 99 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: person for this office. Not partisan, Rob, it's not. The 100 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 2: office has nothing to do with your political party. It 101 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 2: has to do with good government. I mean the guys 102 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: wasting our money. People work really hard for their money. 103 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 2: I'm gonna save people money. 104 00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 1: Bobi is our guest Democrat kadid for Secretary of State. 105 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 4: All right, So. 106 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people are gonna be very 107 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 1: interested on how you sort of overcome the Democrat challenge, 108 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: which is, hey, it's a sixty to forty state. Obviously 109 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,400 Speaker 1: the Democrats. It's been a long time since I guess what, 110 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: Joe Donnelly and then Glinda Ritz So it's been a 111 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: decade plus. How do you get enough Republican leaning voters 112 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 1: to vote for you to make up that pretty big 113 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 1: gap in terms of voter voter tendencies. 114 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: For lack of a good question, the best thing about 115 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:48,599 Speaker 2: this office in this race and my message, it's not partisan. Republicans. 116 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 2: You don't like wastefle spending. You don't like when our 117 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 2: secretary of State goes to hydrobad India doesn't tell us 118 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: who's paying for it. 119 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 1: Man, we're count on you to find out who paid 120 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: for the thing. That's your job. 121 00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 2: Day one, we're doing an independent audit. We're gonna bring 122 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 2: you've probably had mice in your house. Your listeners have 123 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 2: had mice in their house. The exterminator comes over. When 124 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: they see one mouse, it means there's like fifty or 125 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 2: one hundred. This is just what we know with this guy. 126 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: Are you the exterminator? Are you running to be the exterminator? 127 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 4: State? 128 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,559 Speaker 2: Your resistant analogy? But look where there's smoke, there's fire. 129 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 2: Day one, we're going to conduct an independent audit of 130 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 2: this office. Republicans and Democrats alike can get behind cutting 131 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:25,920 Speaker 2: out wasteful spending and blatant corruption in politics. This guy, 132 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: Rob has given out no bid contracts to his campaign 133 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,159 Speaker 2: donors from out of state software companies. I mean, look, 134 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 2: he's supposed to be in charge of registering the businesses 135 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 2: in our state. Can you imagine. Can you imagine your 136 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: listeners probably are business owners. Can you imagine registering your 137 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: new business as an entrepreneur with our state and wanting 138 00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,919 Speaker 2: a good partner in a Secretary of State's office, and 139 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 2: this guy's giving out no bid contracts to his donors. 140 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: That is not a good partner. How can you trust 141 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 2: that person to help you found your business and be successful. 142 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: It's ridiculous. 143 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,159 Speaker 1: So you have, like we said, an uphill climb. And 144 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 1: by the way, I think that's great that you're going 145 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: to do that, because I think we talked about this 146 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: on our show. Not only you run against Diego Morales, 147 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:05,479 Speaker 1: there's a lot of people who have been totally complicit 148 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,360 Speaker 1: in what he's doing. I think most people that say 149 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: does know exactly what he is. And the fact that 150 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: the governor won't do anything about it, the attorney general 151 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 1: won't do anything about it. It's really going to take 152 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 1: somebody to get in that office because you will get 153 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 1: access to all the stuff. You're going to be able 154 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: to open those doors. 155 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,960 Speaker 2: You're right, and look, this is this goes to the 156 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 2: heart of a big problem in Indiana politics that I 157 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: think you and I agree on. Mitch Daniels agrees with 158 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 2: me on this. He's written extensively on this. Diego Morales 159 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 2: is the product of twenty five years of no competition 160 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,279 Speaker 2: in politics. Right, this is what happens. It's just like business, 161 00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 2: if you have if there are no competing businesses in 162 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 2: an area, the one business in town can jack up 163 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 2: their prices and screw consumers. That's what's happening here. He 164 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: does not feel like he has to take good actions, 165 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,200 Speaker 2: good steps for good government, because he feels like there 166 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,599 Speaker 2: are no repercussions for his bad actions. He's about to 167 00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 2: find out that's not the case. It's not partisan. We 168 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,920 Speaker 2: need competitive politics because it produces better results for voters. 169 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 2: It's not about Democrats Republicans. It's about people in office 170 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,839 Speaker 2: who actually care about the taxpayer, who are competent at 171 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 2: their jobs, are not going to lie to you. 172 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 1: So I try to make this case. A lot on 173 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 1: this program, and I hear from people, many people they 174 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: will say, you know what, You're right, The Republicans are awful. 175 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 1: They're mismanaging our money, the crony capitalism. But boy, I 176 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: just there's a lot of extremists in the Democrat Party 177 00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: and I just can't deal with that. How do you 178 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: overcome when there are some very loud voices in your 179 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: party who really alienate people who otherwise might be open 180 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: to voting for you. How do you deal with. 181 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 2: I hear you, I hear them, and can tell us. Look, 182 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 2: both political parties need to focus on the issues that 183 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 2: matter to most people. Most people people care about cost 184 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,280 Speaker 2: of living. I mean, utility rates are through the roof 185 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: here in Indiana. You know that. I just passed the 186 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 2: AES building on the way in here. That's my utility company. 187 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 2: I pay those rates. Healthcare costs are rate too high. 188 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: Are roads and bridge are crumbling. We've gotta make sure 189 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: to keep our streets safe. These are the issues that 190 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 2: people care about. The Democratic parties, some factions of it 191 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: have been focused on things for way too long that 192 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,640 Speaker 2: are just not the main issue for most people. So 193 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: you ask me how I'm gonna you know, attract voters 194 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,320 Speaker 2: of the other party focus on the things that matter 195 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 2: to people, not some of the extremeist politics that we've seen. 196 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: So like with coaches in sports, like if their dad 197 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: was a coach, they call up their father, like, Hey, 198 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:27,680 Speaker 1: what do you think about this game?

When we come back, we'll get 227 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: to some of the issues. How does he feel about 228 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: voter I D How does he feel about ballot initiatives? 229 00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: We'll get to that in a lot more. Kennel A 230 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 1: Casey Show ninety three w IBC first get good after 231 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: in for Casey bo Ba Democrat Kennedy for Secretary of State. 232 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: He is our guest, so let's talk about some of 233 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,400 Speaker 1: the positions you have. You have said, I think it 234 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: is a very smart voter id off table. We're not 235 00:09:58,480 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 1: touching voter id long. 236 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 2: And we rob by the way. We in our state 237 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 2: must have secure elections. There is no room, no room 238 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 2: in our state for illegal voting. But at the same token, 239 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,840 Speaker 2: I think it's a shame that Indiana ranks fiftieth bottom 240 00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 2: of the country in voter participation. 241 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 1: Why is that is because. 242 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 2: The number one reason I've read studies about this, I 243 00:10:18,679 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 2: doubt Diego Moralysis studied this issue because, to be honest 244 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 2: with you, I don't. 245 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 4: Think he cares. 246 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: Voter apathy. People don't go to the polls because they 247 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,800 Speaker 2: feel like their voice doesn't matter, like they're just casting 248 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 2: their ballot into the abyss. Your listeners know about this 249 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: partisan redistricting effort that's going on. Yeah, what do you 250 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: think that's going to do to voter apathy? If we 251 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 2: further gerrymander our congressional maps where where we have very 252 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,480 Speaker 2: non competitive elections, people are not going to go to the 253 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,079 Speaker 2: polls because they're going to say, why am I voting? 254 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 2: This outcome is predetermined. 255 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 1: So I think the big thing for you, though, is 256 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,160 Speaker 1: you're fine with voter id in the state of media. 257 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 1: You're not going to push to change that. No, Okay, 258 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: let's talk about the ballot referendums, because that'd be an 259 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,200 Speaker 1: act of the legislature. But you, as the elections chief, 260 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:04,079 Speaker 1: would have some sway over that in terms of public influence. 261 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: Where are you out on ballot referendums. 262 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:10,040 Speaker 2: I think it is time in Indiana, just like Florida, Missouri, 263 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,440 Speaker 2: and Ohio, that we had a citizen led ballot referendum process. 264 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 2: I just mentioned Indiana ranks fiftieth bottom of the country 265 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 2: and voter participation that is in part droup drawn pushed 266 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 2: by voter apathy. Another part is people think that folks 267 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: in the state US just don't represent their interests. They're 268 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 2: just turned off from politics. Like my brother is one 269 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 2: of these people. 270 00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 1: Can you He's nowhere to be found exactly, very happy. 271 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 2: He's living a great life in Carmel and with his 272 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: new wife and new job. So he's doing fine. But look, 273 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 2: can you imagine the energy that we can build in 274 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 2: our state, the voter turnout that could happen if we 275 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,800 Speaker 2: let the people decide to have a voice in the 276 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 2: big issues of the day. That is going to drive turnout, 277 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 2: that's going to get people out to the polls. I 278 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 2: have a lot of faith robbed like you do in 279 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 2: Hoosiers deciding these issues and not the folks, the one 280 00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty people who are off by special interests 281 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 2: in the state House. I have faith in the in 282 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 2: Hoosiers deciding this. 283 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: Do you feel pressure that? 284 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 4: Look? 285 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:08,480 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's pretty obvious you're sort of 286 00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 1: like the last hope for the Democrat Party in Indiana. 287 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: I mean, if you can't pull it off with your name, 288 00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: with your your resources, I mean, you're going to be 289 00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: a much better candidate than what they put forward in 290 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,840 Speaker 1: the past. Is there pressure like, Hey, if this guy 291 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 1: can't do it, we're folding the tent and we're going home. 292 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 2: I don't know.

You asked me what I'm 341 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 2: going to do the next three months, I'm going to 342 00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 2: get around to Chris cross our state to talk with people, 343 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: not just Democrats, Republicans, Independence alike. I'm going to talk 344 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 2: to them about our message. I'm going to hear their 345 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,920 Speaker 2: where they're struggling in their in their life and how 346 00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 2: I can address those concerns. And I look forward to 347 00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 2: doing that. This is not a partisan office. I'm not 348 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 2: going to run it in a partisan Why it's time 349 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,480 Speaker 2: we clean up the watfle spending, the corruption and the grift. 350 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the fundraising. You're getting a lot of 351 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 1: big checks. What do you say to people who go, well, see, 352 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: he's just reaching into his dad's connections and he's just 353 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: you know, you know, just in the lineage, and he's 354 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 1: just as a family business. What do you say to 355 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: those people. 356 00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,120 Speaker 2: I would say we're building momentum here because people believe 357 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: in our message. You talked about the fundraising numbers. The 358 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,640 Speaker 2: majority of the money that has come in in our 359 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,479 Speaker 2: fundraising effort thus far has been from Republicans rob Republicans. 360 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 2: That goes to show how dissatisfied people are with our 361 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 2: current state of politics. It's not partisan. People want leaders, 362 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 2: and I hope to be one of these, one of 363 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 2: these leaders who bring people together, work with folks they 364 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: don't always agree with, unify people. That is our message 365 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 2: and that's why we've had early success in the fundraising department. 366 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, you got some famous names on there, and I 367 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: decided I need more rich friends. My grandpa used give 368 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 1: me like twenty bucks each month, so I decided I 369 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:21,920 Speaker 1: need I need more rich friends real quick. I want 370 00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 1: to get to know you a little bit because I 371 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,040 Speaker 1: think it's easy to say, oh, he's just coming back here, 372 00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 1: he's doing this to use hoosiers. Talk a little bit 373 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: about your military service, because I think that says a 374 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: lot about somebody about that you could go any path 375 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,720 Speaker 1: you wanted to go, and you decided to be willing 376 00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 1: to wear the uniform for your country. 377 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 2: Well, thanks and you know. I people always ask me, well, 378 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 2: did your parents put pressure in your growing up? Your 379 00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 2: dad was a senator, whatever. The only pressure my parents 380 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 2: put on me was to just give back and to 381 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 2: try and serve. And you can do that in a 382 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,880 Speaker 2: ton of different ways. Besides being in the military. You 383 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: can be you know, you can be a journalist, like 384 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know if you'd like a journalist. 385 00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: That might be a dirty word these days, but there's 386 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 2: just a ton of different ways to do that. And 387 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 2: so I decided to join the Marine Corps because I've 388 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 2: been very lucky in my life, Rob I've had a 389 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 2: lot of opportunities open to me that you know, I'm 390 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 2: very grateful for, and I feel an obligation to give 391 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 2: back and just do my part to defend our country. 392 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 2: The best thing about the Marine Corps, the best thing 393 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 2: about the military, is that people come from all different 394 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: walks of life, from big cities, little towns, from all 395 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 2: over and they vote for incredibly different people. We have 396 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 2: different politics, but at the end of the day, in 397 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 2: the Marine Corps, I was an infantry officer in the 398 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: Marine Corps, right, it is my job as the leader 399 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 2: to take all of these different people and orient them 400 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 2: toward a common goal. We didn't ask each other who 401 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 2: we voted for because it didn't matter. We had a 402 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 2: mission to accomplish. We need more of that spirit, that 403 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 2: type of leadership in our politics. 404 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 1: And thing I like about your military service is there's 405 00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: more than just one file photo of you.

It can exist in both parties. 464 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 2: Just happens to be Diego Morales as a Republican, but 465 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 2: we got to just as common sense taxpayers and just 466 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:16,919 Speaker 2: you know, normal people. We got to call this stuff out. 467 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 2: You're doing a good job at that. 468 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks, Bo, appreciate you. 469 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 5: Man. 470 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 4: All right. 471 00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: Kennel case Show ninety three WIBC.

It's Kennel and Casey Show. 474 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 1: I'm Rob Casey's out today. Ethan Hatcher from Satday Night 475 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: on the Circle in for Casey. Before we do that, though, 476 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 1: so we interviewed Bo Bye. We'll be able to go 477 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,359 Speaker 1: back and listen to it on the podcast if you 478 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 1: missed any of it. And I will say this, I 479 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: think we're going to get the race we want out 480 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: of this because I think you're going to be utterly 481 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:00,800 Speaker 1: disappointed no matter who wins. Let's make it entertaining. And 482 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 1: I think the Buys are going to run the sort 483 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 1: of operation where they are going to pull the mask 484 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: back one ad at a time on who Diego Morales is, 485 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: how he's run that office and the Republicans, the Republican 486 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,240 Speaker 1: Party that has been from most part totally complicit in 487 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 1: the behavior. Are you that confident that Diego Morales is 488 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,720 Speaker 1: going to secure the nomination from the delegates at convention 489 00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: because a successful bow Bye campaign essentially rests on Diego 490 00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:33,399 Speaker 1: Morales being the nominee. Yeah, okay, so I'm torn on 491 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: this because we all have, all members of decent society 492 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: have a vested interest in getting rid of Diego Morales's 493 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:41,719 Speaker 1: secretary of State, and if David Shelton does that at 494 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 1: the convention, then great, we'll move on. However, from the 495 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:48,720 Speaker 1: perspective of this radio program and this radio station, the 496 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: best thing for us is going to be the bow 497 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,360 Speaker 1: by Diego Morales. Sure. I mean you're going to see 498 00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 1: a gajillion dollar spent. It's going to get super nasty. 499 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,960 Speaker 1: And Diego may not want to tell nobody who paid 500 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 1: for India, but the buys, I think are going to 501 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,360 Speaker 1: figure it out. I think they'll tell everybody who paid 502 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: for it. There's a fantastic contrast that can be drawn 503 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 1: between the candidates, and that's what you want for a 504 00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 1: really energetic election is when there is a you know, 505 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 1: broad disagreement between the two central candidates, I mean even 506 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,320 Speaker 1: down to their heights. You know, you got bow Bye, 507 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 1: a towering giant of a man, and tippy Toe's Diego, 508 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: you know, who can barely get his head over the podium. 509 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: That's the one thing we were laughing during the break 510 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,960 Speaker 1: that blew me aways. I didn't realize how tall he was. 511 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: Now I'm five eight, so I'm not exactly the best 512 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: guy to compare this to. But you're you're six four 513 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: six y four, keV. You saw him. He's every bit 514 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 1: as tall as Ethano. Yeah, it's very similar. And so 515 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 1: you're right, Diego's got to be five two. And if 516 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 1: those two get on a debate stage, which it does 517 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:48,919 Speaker 1: raise the question. Last time, Diego totally chickened out and 518 00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 1: refused to debate his opponents. Now he thought he had 519 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: it in the bag, and he did, and he did 520 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: he didn't have to. He's not going to have it 521 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,120 Speaker 1: in the bag this time. But the contrast of those 522 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 1: two next to each other or at any and are 523 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 1: on stage, it's gonna blow people away. 524 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:03,480 Speaker 4: Oh that's a good point. 525 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 1: I could totally see Diego chicken it out of another debate, 526 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: and that would be a much bigger deal than him 527 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: doing that against Destiny Wells and Jeff Moore. So anyway, look, 528 00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: and I know some people are thinking, well, it's gonna 529 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 1: be this hardcore interview. Look, we got a thirteen months 530 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: before the election's gonna be back a whole bunch of times. 531 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 1: Does he take policy positions? Is he as he comes 532 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: out with opinions on things, we'll have him on and 533 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: we'll do the we'll do the in depth. I think 534 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,439 Speaker 1: he is. Look, I think you would be naive to 535 00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:31,960 Speaker 1: think if politics isn't in that family's blood and it's 536 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: sort of this you know, it's remember in Forrest Gump 537 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,359 Speaker 1: where Lieutenant they give the history of Lieutenant Dan and 538 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: somebody had died in his family in every single war, 539 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 1: and they go all the way back to the founding 540 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,320 Speaker 1: of the country. And look, I think it would be 541 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:47,640 Speaker 1: naive to think, like that's sort of not what it's 542 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: like being a buye and that that was sort of 543 00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,919 Speaker 1: a fate of complay. This was always gonna happen. And 544 00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna really have to hone his message 545 00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,239 Speaker 1: to connect with people, because while the buy name and 546 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,960 Speaker 1: that infrastructure, as it clearly is, will help him raise 547 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 1: the money he's gonna need, it's also going to hurt 548 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,680 Speaker 1: him with some people because they'll do the hey guy 549 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 1: born with the silver spoon in his mouth. Yeah, But 550 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 1: I mean he is a character straight out of central casting, 551 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 1: as you often see, very good looking, he looks the part. 552 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: He's tall, he's charismatic, he's confident. But if he is 553 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: a savvy politician, he will read the tea leaves and 554 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: no one understand that winning a state wide office in 555 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 1: Indiana is an uphill battle when you are a Democrat. Sure, 556 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 1: And I think two things that I took away from 557 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: this one. They are going to destroy, if indeeded is 558 00:23:38,840 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 1: Diego Morales with these with these ads, and he will 559 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 1: have professional people around him from his father's orbit, from 560 00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 1: the sort of you know, the Democrats who are left 561 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 1: who know what they're doing orbit. They will be very 562 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 1: surgical in how they how they take apart Diego Morales. 563 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: They will make this a referendum on Diego Morales. They 564 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: will put the mirror up and tell this state this 565 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,000 Speaker 1: is who this guy is, and they get the polling shones. 566 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,200 Speaker 1: They're gonna get the opportunity to do it because most 567 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,880 Speaker 1: people don't know who he is, and so I think 568 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:13,919 Speaker 1: that's definitely definitely gonna happen. I also think he understands 569 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: that there is a major image problem with that party 570 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: that he's a part of, and he's going to have 571 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: to figure out a way to convince people, hey, I'm 572 00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 1: not one of these no kings people that's going to 573 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:30,199 Speaker 1: be showing up screaming on the State House lawn and 574 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 1: that balancing act and the choice. Look, voters are gonna 575 00:24:32,840 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: have to make the choice. Will are you willing to 576 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: deal with what you know and what's going to come 577 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: out about Diego morales? Are you willing to deal with 578 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 1: four more years of that? Are you willing to take 579 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: a flyer and hope this guy can be moderate and 580 00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,439 Speaker 1: just do the job, which is to be an administrator 581 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: of the will the General Assembly. When it comes to 582 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,560 Speaker 1: presenting himself, I think he needs to take a book 583 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: out of John Fetterman, the Betterman's Book, and you know, 584 00:24:57,160 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: just present himself as normal, somebody who can cross the 585 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: aisle with a bipartisan appeal. And if he fails to 586 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 1: capitalize on the many many many many many many MENI 587 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,680 Speaker 1: meaning many many misdeeds of Tippy toe Ba Diego, then 588 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: the Democrats deserve to lose. All right, Uh man, this 589 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:17,440 Speaker 1: is a horrible story. It's fascinating to me, but it's horrible. 590 00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: You posted this on Twitter. You're talking about my house. Yeah, 591 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 1: so you own. We joke, but you owned several houses. 592 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 1: You are a land, You're you're living, renting houses to people. 593 00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: Most of them are east side of the east side 594 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,439 Speaker 1: of Indianapolis and the very side of India, I think, 595 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 1: is what the technical term is. And somebody shot up 596 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 1: one of your houses the other night. I mean when 597 00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,159 Speaker 1: you say they shot up like okay, Rob, See, this 598 00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 1: isn't even the first time this has happened to me 599 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 1: in Indianapolis. Remember a couple of years ago, at the 600 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 1: beginning of twenty twenty two, when my house got shot up. 601 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,640 Speaker 1: I was caught in the crossfire. I've been your house. 602 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: I've seen the bullet. I was right a street shooting. 603 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: I had a couple of windows get shot out. Bullet 604 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 1: went right through my house or right through my bedroom 605 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: into my living room. And I thought that was bad 606 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: when I got caught in the crossfire of a little 607 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 1: more than a dozen bullets in the front of my house. Rob, 608 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: they turned this place where my tenants live into Swiss cheese. 609 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: It's like nothing I've ever seen. They Bonnie and Clydeed 610 00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: the place, you know, the famous Bondie Clyde car. 611 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:16,639 Speaker 4: They did that to a house. 612 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 1: They shot out, about a dozen windows, shattered concrete in 613 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 1: the foundation. 614 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 4: I mean, it is a wreck, it's a mess. 615 00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 1: Now, this shot through a closet door, the front door, 616 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: a bedroom door, many. 617 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:31,679 Speaker 4: Holes in the walls. 618 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,159 Speaker 1: It's no, this is not But let's I want to 619 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 1: point this out, not that it makes it any better, 620 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:36,919 Speaker 1: but this is not the house you live in. This 621 00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 1: is one of the houses you rent. Yes, this is 622 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,080 Speaker 1: a rental property with people in it. There were people, 623 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 1: they were in it at the time. This happened at 624 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:44,600 Speaker 1: four o'clock in the morning. You know, these people are 625 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 1: just laying their heads down and sleeping. So what do 626 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: you what happens when that? Like, I mean, do they 627 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: call you? Obviously, I see they call the police for 628 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: like what what happens when a house gets shot up? 629 00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:57,760 Speaker 1: They called the police first, which was the correct course 630 00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 1: of action, because there's not much I can do four 631 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: o'clock in the morning when somebody shoots up one of 632 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: my one of my properties. 633 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 4: So they called police. 634 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: Police showed up to take a report, they took pictures, 635 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 1: and then they left. I'm not sure if there will 636 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,199 Speaker 1: be any more to the i MPD investigation than that, 637 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 1: But now we begin the cleanup process. So, and I 638 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 1: thought you, I mean, you posted, by the way, what's 639 00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: your Twitter handles to you? You can find my Twitter 640 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 1: at Ethan Hatcher. My name e t h n h 641 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: A t c h E R at Ethan Hatcher. Okay, 642 00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 1: And so you posted these photos that people want to 643 00:27:30,040 --> 00:27:32,160 Speaker 1: see them, and it's really staggering, like to see these 644 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: these pictures. But I thought your kind of description of 645 00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 1: this was great, which is it's obviously dangerous and horrible, 646 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: but for you, as the landlord, it's incredibly disheartening because 647 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 1: you put a lot of effort into your properties to 648 00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,720 Speaker 1: make them livable and passable and something the community can 649 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 1: you know, be proud of or you're you're proud to 650 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 1: live in and then people just do all this destruction 651 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,080 Speaker 1: to your property and you've got to pay out of 652 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: your own pocket to fix the damage that they've done. 653 00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: Trying to do the right thing and hold your head 654 00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 1: up high in the city of Indianapolis is like trying 655 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:08,679 Speaker 1: to swim with training weights on. You were constantly being 656 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: dragged down by the crap that democrats have let fester 657 00:28:13,280 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 1: in our city. And I directly connect activities like this 658 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: to the actions of Joe hogseet and Ryan Nears over 659 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,719 Speaker 1: the past, you know, well hog set since twenty sixteen 660 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,959 Speaker 1: meters since twenty nineteen. So do you have any faith 661 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 1: that one the person or people are gonna be caught 662 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 1: and two that anything will happen to them. Well, I mean, 663 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: if they're caught, you know, we can talk, especially if 664 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: they're a repeat offender. 665 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 4: You know, maybe this is the tipping point. 666 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,960 Speaker 1: But you know, that's a big if they're even gonna 667 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: be caught, because I'm not sure they didn't catch They 668 00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 1: were on foot, so they didn't catch any license plates 669 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 1: from nearby ring doorbell cameras or security cameras. There's just 670 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: not a lot to go on besides the shellcasings that 671 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 1: were retrieved. And I don't even know if IMPD retrieved 672 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: them all, because I found quite a few on the 673 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: sidewalk just myself looking around.

It was 682 00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars to repair some roof leaks.

How 704 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: could somebody putting bullets through your house not be construed 705 00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: as vandalism? Well, I'm not an insurance suggest to Rob, 706 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,960 Speaker 1: so I'm not sure how they interpret the language. 707 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 4: But yeah, you know, if they would have. 708 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: Spray painted the front of the house, yes, that that 709 00:30:55,960 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 1: would have been covered peppering it with bullets maybe maybe? 710 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: All right, we'll take a break, Hammer joins us.
