1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:06,439
Speaker 1: It's the Hammer and Nigel weekend show called Nutty three WYBC.

2
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: My name is Nigel Jason Hammer right over there with

3
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: a very special in studio guest, the.

4
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 2: Governor of the Great State of Indiana, Governor Mike Brawn

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 2: joins us in studio. Bears in Indie? Yet, do I

6
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,279
Speaker 2: go buy tickets yet? Is that a done deal? Do

7
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,639
Speaker 2: I start making the t shirts now on the merch store?

8
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: What's going on?

9
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:29,360
Speaker 3: Why did I know that was going to be your

10
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 3: first comment?

11
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 4: So everybody asked that question and from the last time

12
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 4: it was public discussed. The Bears are doing due diligent stuff.

13
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 4: I think the Pritzker and Johnson and their state legislature

14
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,120
Speaker 4: let it go far enough that it's kind of in

15
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,840
Speaker 4: the same dynamic. They like the look of Indiana. I

16
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 4: think they get more of a stadium built for the

17
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,040
Speaker 4: dollars that they spend. Plus you look at the cost

18
00:00:59,120 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 4: of doing business here forty to fifty years.

19
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:04,840
Speaker 3: I mean, they like what they see.

20
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 4: So depends on their legislatures in session till May thirty first,

21
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,360
Speaker 4: But we have weekly conversations with them and they're still

22
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 4: going forward on doing the month or two's worth of

23
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 4: work checking the side out, So the templates there. The

24
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 4: legislature did a wonderful job. Governor's office handled all the

25
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:29,199
Speaker 4: conversation up.

26
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,360
Speaker 3: To getting the legislation done.

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 4: So we've done everything to set the stage and we'll see.

28
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 4: I think it'll play out in the next month and

29
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 4: a half or two one way.

30
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 3: Or the other.

31
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 2: All right, So Nigel and I talked a little bit earlier.

32
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: National headlines are kind of dominating the new cycle right now.

33
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,480
Speaker 2: We're keeping our eye on Iran, the United States and Iran.

34
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 2: There appears to be a terrorist attack at the mayor's

35
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 2: residence near New York and isis inspired attack. National stories

36
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 2: are big. I want to talk about what's happening here

37
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,600
Speaker 2: in Indiana. Session just wrapped up. This was not a

38
00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 2: budget year, but there were some key things that were

39
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:12,760
Speaker 2: on the docket this year.

40
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,639
Speaker 1: It seems like a bunch of stuff got accomplished.

41
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 2: Right, What are the wins? Governor?

42
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 4: So all along, jobs and wages are the big deal,

43
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 4: and we may have discussed it before. Economic development that goes,

44
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:32,359
Speaker 4: you know, directly into that. In the first year, we

45
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 4: were able to bump wages from thirty six bucks an

46
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 4: hour close to forty one, and we've spent one third

47
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:43,640
Speaker 4: the amount of money per incentivized job.

48
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 3: That is significant.

49
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 4: We've also talked about doing it in a broad regional

50
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 4: way with the fifteen regions, making sure there's synergy among

51
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,639
Speaker 4: them that the whole state sees benefit. That's why, along

52
00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 4: with that good wage news, our GDP growth is growing

53
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,520
Speaker 4: at twice the rate of Ohio's in Illinois, three times

54
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 4: as fast as Kentucky's, five to six times as fast

55
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 4: as Michigan. So we're standing out among our peer state group.

56
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 4: So that's good news. You've got what's happening here on

57
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 4: the national seed. Yes, gas prices which were coming down

58
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 4: from Biden's inflation and restrictions. I think most people know why,

59
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 4: and hopefully that's going to stick to the game plan

60
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,400
Speaker 4: because affordability is still the big issue out there. But

61
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:41,520
Speaker 4: our state has stood out with some real basic changes and.

62
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 3: We'll keep doing it.

63
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 4: And then when it comes to what the year looks

64
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 4: like ahead, remember that Austere budget forecast, Well that was

65
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 4: based upon tariffs, which that was a fake forecast because

66
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:58,920
Speaker 4: tariffs were discounted in the marketplace. And now we've gotten

67
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 4: back that billion dollars that we were supposed to not

68
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 4: have in each year and running state government more leanly,

69
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:12,760
Speaker 4: more efficiently. The last forecast done in December has things

70
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 4: looking better.

71
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:15,680
Speaker 3: Than what they did the year prior.

72
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 4: Take nothing for granted, because most people are aching so

73
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:24,320
Speaker 4: bad from Biden's twenty five percent gift right that these

74
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 4: are high costs and you couldn't get them down. That

75
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,479
Speaker 4: would take deflation, that would take the opposite of inflation.

76
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 4: So you got to work on things like how do

77
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:38,000
Speaker 4: you make it easier to produce more fuel, how do

78
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 4: you make it easier to produce more or something, or

79
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 4: how do you get ahead of now utility rates with

80
00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 4: the whole complicated discussion on data centers, and that's the

81
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,880
Speaker 4: thing we've had the most control over, and we got

82
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 4: specific things we can point to there.

83
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 1: I saw you on TV I think earlier today talking

84
00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: about energy rates and data centers, right, Yeah, what was

85
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 1: the substance of that message?

86
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,799
Speaker 4: So if if you want to bring a data center

87
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 4: to this state, you're paying for it the construction of it,

88
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 4: You're going to put more electrons onto the grid than

89
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 4: you're using. That shows up with Indiana, Michigan. I think

90
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,960
Speaker 4: it's part of AEP They are coming out with a

91
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 4: rate reduction if they follow through on it. Because of

92
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 4: the results they're already getting out of one done up

93
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 4: in their area. Nipscoe created a separate entity to put

94
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 4: them into. They're lowering things like special charges, disconnects, they're

95
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 4: given more latitude. We're doing everything we can and throwing

96
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 4: the kitchen sink at it. But it's the first time

97
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,760
Speaker 4: any governor has taken on investor own utilities because it's

98
00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 4: just as strong, almost as a healthcare lobby, which ironically

99
00:05:55,080 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 4: is where we've gotten the most done, and they still

100
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 4: complain about it's being too hard on hospitals and insurance companies.

101
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 3: We've only gotten started.

102
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 2: There isn't that a problem though. With the General Assembly,

103
00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 2: it's an overwhelming Republican majority, and it feels like it's

104
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 2: the same conversation with property taxes. It should be pretty easy.

105
00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 2: If there's an R next to your name, you should

106
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: be for limited government, lower taxes. But unfortunately there's a

107
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 2: lot of folks that have it R next to their

108
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,800
Speaker 2: name that govern like there's a D next to it.

109
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, so there.

110
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 4: Of course, they gave me Senate Bill one gutted it,

111
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:35,280
Speaker 4: and we've talked about that several times and got it

112
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 4: back to where there's relief, but not what many that

113
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 4: wanted to get rid of property tax or reduce it

114
00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 4: over time wanted here. On utility rates, when I appointed

115
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,400
Speaker 4: the first four appointments to the Office of Utility Counselor,

116
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 4: she is a tough customer, Abbi Gray. When AES requested

117
00:06:57,200 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 4: an increase of twenty percent, she said, no, I recommend

118
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 4: a ten percent decrease. That's set the stage. And then

119
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 4: the iu RC Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission, I replace three

120
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:16,119
Speaker 4: of the five commissioners to be rate payer conscious. They're

121
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 4: investigating the utilities on their rate increases in the past,

122
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,920
Speaker 4: and they now are going to be rate payer conscious

123
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 4: to where I think we're going to be able to

124
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 4: get them to finally realize it's a two way street.

125
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 4: Not whatever you want, you're going to get done, and

126
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 4: we're just getting started on that. So I and am

127
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 4: AEP If they do that in lower rates based upon

128
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 4: more electrons going on the grid, that's the start of it.

129
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 4: We're not going to We're going to be vigilant and

130
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 4: not let up. That'll be the first measurable thing any

131
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 4: governor has done. And then you go to the legislature

132
00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,680
Speaker 4: they passed a bill that was actually fairly conducing to it,

133
00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 4: and we did most of it through executive order. And

134
00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,360
Speaker 4: how we could impact those commissions.

135
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,760
Speaker 2: Governor, if these data centers are from these massive companies, right,

136
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 2: and these are the folks that are able to afford

137
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,120
Speaker 2: these why should they get tax breaks?

138
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 3: Well, their investor owned utilities, they get their revenues regulated. Okay.

139
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 4: Utilities are different than nonprofit hospitals, which escape basically all taxes. Here,

140
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:43,000
Speaker 4: they've just not had anybody holding their rates down to

141
00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,280
Speaker 4: be accountable. So the main way you impact the utility

142
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 4: is they are a natural monopoly. You've got five of

143
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,199
Speaker 4: them that provide most of the electrisity in our state.

144
00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:57,200
Speaker 3: They've got to have and they're owned by investors.

145
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 4: The past has been the lobbyists say, we want to

146
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 4: make sure there's a guaranteed return on investment for the

147
00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 4: owners of the utilities. We're going away from that. That's

148
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 4: not going to be a guarantee. The guarantee is going

149
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 4: to be that you give us value by running yourself

150
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 4: more efficiently, and that you do whatever it takes at

151
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 4: lower prices, not get a rubber stamp on increases.

152
00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 3: So it's a little different dynamic.

153
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,839
Speaker 4: The main tool we have to use against Sam is

154
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 4: the iu RC Governor Mike.

155
00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 2: Brawn with us. One more thing here on the subject

156
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 2: of affordability and utilities AEES a lot of talk about

157
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,720
Speaker 2: them being bought out. Is it going to be Blackrock?

158
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,600
Speaker 2: Is it going to be somebody else? How involved are you,

159
00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: if at all, in the discussions about AES and the

160
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 2: reacquisition of that business.

161
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 4: Statement is very clear, whether it's Blackrock whoever, you're playing

162
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 4: by the same rules. If the ownership changes, that is

163
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,719
Speaker 4: going to be a federal issue on antitrust stuff. If

164
00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:06,480
Speaker 4: they don't do anything about it, there's nothing you can

165
00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:10,080
Speaker 4: do about it. But just because it's Blackrock, they play

166
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 4: by the same rules as whoever they own. If it

167
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 4: is a utility, nothing favored, they don't really add any

168
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:22,679
Speaker 4: extra clout to it. It'll be run as a subsidiary,

169
00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:25,599
Speaker 4: you know, not by Blackrock. They're a holding company and

170
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 4: owns a bunch of stuff. But that shouldn't make any

171
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 4: difference because the rules will be the same.

172
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 2: One more thing here before we let you go. We

173
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 2: got the Governor Mike Brown with us, so we're doing

174
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 2: well in terms of the GDP. We're doing well in

175
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 2: terms of job numbers. So when can we look forward

176
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 2: to that no tax on tips. I know this wasn't

177
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 2: a budget year, but if somebody really wanted to, they

178
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 2: probably could have maybe made a move on that. I

179
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,199
Speaker 2: feel like this past session, so that.

180
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 4: Was pasted, okay for us to devetail it no tax

181
00:10:58,040 --> 00:11:01,200
Speaker 4: on tips and over to time okay.

182
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,920
Speaker 2: So in that passed, okay, and that will be effective

183
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 2: as of I'd.

184
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 4: Have to check the effective date, but a lot of

185
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:12,600
Speaker 4: times that goes into effect July first new fiscal year.

186
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:14,599
Speaker 2: Because there's a lot of people that were like, I

187
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 2: knew this wasn't a budget year, but it passed in

188
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 2: the big beautiful bill nationally and we were waiting for.

189
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,200
Speaker 3: Pried to dovetail as much as we could.

190
00:11:23,960 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 4: Legislature did fight back a little bit because it lowers revenues.

191
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:34,559
Speaker 4: You know, in this case, we wanted those two components

192
00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 4: for sure to be in there, and we got them

193
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 4: in there.

194
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 2: What's next for the state of Indiana?

195
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 4: So, I mean, healthcare costs are still the thing that

196
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,920
Speaker 4: we're known most far having the highest with some of

197
00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 4: the poorest outcomes. We spent a lot of attention on

198
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 4: hospitals we got some healthcare bills done this session.

199
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: Did we get the whole Medicare Medicaid confusion workdoun?

200
00:11:57,760 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 4: So that was mostly about Medicaide in our state. Yes,

201
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 4: we found when we started picking low hanging fruit there

202
00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,240
Speaker 4: were like sixteen thousand people on Medicaid that should have

203
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 4: been on Medicare. We had people double dipping out of

204
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:17,280
Speaker 4: a couple of states. We weren't checking eligibilities. That's like

205
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,040
Speaker 4: one on one and that's how we were able to

206
00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 4: save four hundred and sixty five million over the next

207
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 4: two years, where Governor Waltz and his crew up there

208
00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 4: had a eight to nine billion dollar scam going on.

209
00:12:32,160 --> 00:12:33,960
Speaker 3: So that's a big number, big number.

210
00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 2: So Learing Center isn't going to pay for itself.

211
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,560
Speaker 3: Governor, that's just leering.

212
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:42,040
Speaker 2: Yes, thank you so much. We appreciate your time, my pleasure.

213
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 1: Ever Nigel presents, it depends.

214
00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 5: Upon what the meaning of the word is.

215
00:12:54,160 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 1: Is this anything brought you by Indiana Claimed presented by

216
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 1: the Attorney General's Office reunited Hoosiers Hammer with over one

217
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:09,079
Speaker 1: million dollars in unclaimed property every single week, fast, easy

218
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: and free to surge at Indiana Unclaimed dot gov.

219
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 2: Is this anything in American Airlines, passenger swore at the

220
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,000
Speaker 2: cabin crew as she was being thrown off the Tampa

221
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,679
Speaker 2: bound flight for playing a cell phone video on her

222
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:29,640
Speaker 2: loud speaker. She was described as drunk by another traveler.

223
00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 6: I paid money for it, and I played a video

224
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,000
Speaker 6: for thirty second. Have you percent sound that sounds like

225
00:13:37,040 --> 00:13:43,320
Speaker 6: a dem problem? What the actual I stopped after the

226
00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,280
Speaker 6: second morning I stopped it.

227
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:49,080
Speaker 1: Hey, is this not a free sent speech America? Then

228
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 1: I not ex stressed my feelings.

229
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:53,959
Speaker 6: Thank you for good morning me. I played a video

230
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 6: for thirty seconds.

231
00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 7: This is something it says, not a free speech America.

232
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 2: Strong Randy Marsh vibes from South Park. Oh, I'm sorry.

233
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 2: I thought this was America.

234
00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: Now this is just days. We talked about this while

235
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,600
Speaker 1: you were gone last week, cam Or the United Airlines

236
00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: they banned tech without headphones or earbuds. So even if

237
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: you're like with your three year old, they gotta have

238
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 1: some headphones on because people don't want to hear that crap.

239
00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 1: And she said I was. I stopped it after the

240
00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 1: second warning. No, you should have stopped it after the

241
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: first warning, or you may have still been on that flight.

242
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 2: That's the point of the warning moron.

243
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't matter.

244
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,120
Speaker 7: I stopped it after the fourth warning. Ash, That's what

245
00:14:45,160 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 7: she might as well would have said. And I am

246
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 7: going to stick with my policy here of do we

247
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 7: ban her for life?

248
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:57,120
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and taserr you ban her for life, and

249
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,360
Speaker 2: you tase her in front of the people she flew with.

250
00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 2: Give her the juice, baby. And this brings us to

251
00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 2: great moments in airline Shenanigan history. This is when a

252
00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 2: group of passengers on a flight started air dropping nudes

253
00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 2: to other passengers. If you know how to do the

254
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,880
Speaker 2: air drop feature on your iPhone, listen to the announcement

255
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: that the captain had to make.

256
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 3: So here's a deal.

257
00:15:22,560 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 5: This continues where we're on the ground, I'm gonna have

258
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 5: to pull back to the gate. Everybody's gonna have to

259
00:15:27,640 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 5: get off. We're gonna have to get scared evolved, and

260
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 5: it's medication that's gonna be rude. So you folks, whatever

261
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 5: that air drop thing is, let's send the neck a picture.

262
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 5: Let's get yourself to the Gabo.

263
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 2: Like you know how mad I'd be if I didn't

264
00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: get to go to Cabo because somebody was air dropping

265
00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 2: a picture of their hog to somebody.

266
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 1: Or I'd be mad if I didn't get the picture

267
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 1: of the boobs.

268
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 2: Okay, I thought you met the hog. I was like, well,

269
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 2: all right.

270
00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: I'm assuming they were.

271
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:59,320
Speaker 2: It was both chicks don't send nudes all that off,

272
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 2: and it's always a dude. It's some dude sending an

273
00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 2: unsolicited crank pick. You know that it is. You know

274
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:05,800
Speaker 2: that it is.

275
00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: I don't know that, but I've never sent one. All No,

276
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: I have close friends that you've met that have sent one,

277
00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: not to me, but to other chicks.

278
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 2: This is the most awkward conversation you've had to back

279
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 2: yourself out of. First, you were upset you didn't get

280
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,840
Speaker 2: the hog picture. Now you kind of just outed yourself. Well,

281
00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,240
Speaker 2: my friend send me pictures of their winners all the time,

282
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:34,080
Speaker 2: I mean other people. Yeah, that's the ticket, thanks nuge?

283
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:35,720
Speaker 2: Is this anything?

284
00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:36,720
Speaker 3: You know what I mean?

285
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:42,040
Speaker 2: An Illinois woman claims she was injured at a show

286
00:16:42,080 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas by Donnie Osmond's balls.

287
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.

288
00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 2: Donnie Osmond has a resident show at the Flamingo in

289
00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:55,640
Speaker 2: Las Vegas, and he has these balls that pop out,

290
00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: you know, and bounce through the crowd.

291
00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 1: Stop to pop out, just walks out on stage and

292
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 1: his balls pop out.

293
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,200
Speaker 2: Joanne jewels to wait.

294
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,960
Speaker 1: So like beach balls and stuff that you kick around

295
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 1: like at a concert, stuff like.

296
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,399
Speaker 2: That kind of but a little harder than that.

297
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 3: Okay.

298
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:21,200
Speaker 2: Joanne joel Kowski is suing Donnie Osman because she claims

299
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 2: his balls called traumatic injury, kind of neck injuries. Here's

300
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:30,360
Speaker 2: a clip of Donnie Osman promoting his balls.

301
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 8: Why am I standing on my stage here in Las

302
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 8: Vegas holding a beach ball with my picture on it? Well,

303
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 8: those of you who have seen my show, you know

304
00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 8: exactly what I do with these things. I'm here to

305
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 8: announce that I have quadrupled the amount of beach balls

306
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 8: that my dancers and I toss into The audience was wild,

307
00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,719
Speaker 8: wet tickets.

308
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 3: Go to Donnie dot com to get tickets.

309
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: All right, I got it.

310
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 2: At this point, Joe joel Kowski was injured by his balls.

311
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,400
Speaker 1: Now it's worth noting. I don't know how old Joanne

312
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: Jolkowski is, but Donnie Osmond's audiences are older, so they

313
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: could probably be easily injured. I've met Donnie Osmond. I

314
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:14,040
Speaker 1: met out in La out at the Staples Center for

315
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: some Grammy junket that we were doing.

316
00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 2: He gave you a pick and did he didn't?

317
00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 6: He?

318
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, he did. He was a really nice guy, gorgeous smile.

319
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:28,399
Speaker 1: I'm secure enough in my heterosexuality and masculinity that I

320
00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 1: could see Donny Osmon twenty years ago was a very

321
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 1: good looking.

322
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 2: Man, great tea, lawless.

323
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say that, great teeth.

324
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,680
Speaker 2: How did you know I've seen Donny Osmen? I'm mister

325
00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: Las Vegas like I've seen Donny Osmond. And look, there

326
00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:48,560
Speaker 2: may be a little work done there, but he looks fantastic,

327
00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 2: a little, just a little. I have not seen his balls, though,

328
00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:56,439
Speaker 2: I'm gonna make that perfectly clear. His beach balls? Is

329
00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 2: this anything? A woman in Cincinnati was terrorized by a

330
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 2: burglar who kept returning to her apartment every day. Turns

331
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:09,879
Speaker 2: out it was a raccoon. Here's Alexis talking about how

332
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:14,679
Speaker 2: the raccoon was the returning problem.

333
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 9: They were too loud to be mice, almost like it says.

334
00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:19,480
Speaker 2: If it's dragging things up there.

335
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,400
Speaker 9: It is a raccoon prowling my home.

336
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,240
Speaker 2: This is where the animal.

337
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 9: Comes and us through my kitchen cabinet where I serve

338
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:33,120
Speaker 9: food to my young children, bringing trash in from other homes,

339
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 9: dirty diapers, the raccoon defecates in the home.

340
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,960
Speaker 1: That sucks. Yes, this is something I'd be moving out

341
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: of that apartment immediately. Maybe that's not an option for her,

342
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:50,600
Speaker 1: And maybe you should file a lawsuit against the slumlord

343
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 1: or the landlord that is not fixing the problem. There's

344
00:19:54,440 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 1: no reason that I could conceive that somebody would let

345
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,439
Speaker 1: that happen. You know, plug up the hole outside of

346
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,320
Speaker 1: the apartment complex. Right, there's I mean, there's a way

347
00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 1: that raccoon is getting in right, yes, Oh, dear lord,

348
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: and rabbit probably dragging in dirty diapers. Oh, defecating all

349
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:17,919
Speaker 1: over the place.

350
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,400
Speaker 2: Trash Panda's coming in, bringing.

351
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:23,800
Speaker 1: All the crap in there. Yeah, like when you know,

352
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,119
Speaker 1: it's just like I was when we first had Connor

353
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 1: back in the day. I was just I was drunk

354
00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: and inebriating and dragging in all sorts of trash.

355
00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 2: It's great that things have changed.

356
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:36,880
Speaker 1: I've I've grown upsets then.

357
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

358
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 10: Uh.

359
00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:41,440
Speaker 2: Normally we have a segment called great Moments in Shoeing

360
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 2: Away Bear's History. But because this story is about a

361
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 2: raccoon and not a bear, Yeah, can we do a

362
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 2: great moment in Shoeing away raccoons nights.

363
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,200
Speaker 1: Oh is there is there such a thing.

364
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 2: There's this video of a CNN reporter. Now this is

365
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. He's out trying to record

366
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 2: a lot I've tease, I think for his story and

367
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,080
Speaker 2: clearly this was not on the air. This was the outtake,

368
00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,960
Speaker 2: but a raccoon kept stopping by and screwing with him.

369
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,520
Speaker 4: No events on the President's schedule today and important to

370
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:15,879
Speaker 4: say the White House.

371
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:26,960
Speaker 3: Especially from the damn get there. He is fricking raccoons.

372
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:27,240
Speaker 4: Man.

373
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 2: God again, this is the second time great moments and

374
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:35,359
Speaker 2: shooing away raccoon's history. It is on the Hammer and

375
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: Nigel Show.

376
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 1: It's the Hammer of Nigel Show. My name is Nigel

377
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:43,200
Speaker 1: Jason Hammer rights over there. With all the news about

378
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 1: the United States war with Iran, something has kind of

379
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 1: gone under the radar lately. That would be the Save

380
00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:53,119
Speaker 1: America Act, the piece of legislation that Donald Trump and

381
00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:56,680
Speaker 1: the White House really want to push through. And it's

382
00:21:56,920 --> 00:22:00,280
Speaker 1: very simple that you it's federal law that's going to

383
00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: say that you have to have you have to prove

384
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,960
Speaker 1: you're an American to register to vote. You got to

385
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: have an ID two vote and here to give us

386
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:13,120
Speaker 1: an update on that. Bright Bart News policy reporter Sean

387
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: Moran Seawan, did I get that right? It seems like

388
00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 1: a pretty simple piece of legislation.

389
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,399
Speaker 10: Yeah, that's the crust of it requires voter ID as

390
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,760
Speaker 10: a register. You got to show voter IG when you vote,

391
00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 10: and it would have a bail on mail end ballots.

392
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:29,679
Speaker 3: Wow.

393
00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 1: Okay, this doesn't seem to be having success. I think

394
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 1: that it got through the House, but the Senate is

395
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: a different story. Who's for it? Who's againstant the Majority

396
00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 1: leader Thoon is having some problems.

397
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 3: What's going on?

398
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 10: Absolutely, and this is something that we have and will

399
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,119
Speaker 10: continue to report on bright Bartners. It's a long standing

400
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,440
Speaker 10: issue that we are seeing the kind of double edged

401
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,560
Speaker 10: sword of the Senate filibuster that requires sixty votes in

402
00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 10: order to get major legislation through the body. You know,

403
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,359
Speaker 10: this is something that President Donald Trump has tried to

404
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:12,440
Speaker 10: push the Senate to adopt to find ways to get

405
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 10: rid of the filibuster or at least bypassed in order

406
00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:19,920
Speaker 10: to pass the legislation. What some Senators, like Senator Mike

407
00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 10: Lee from Utah, is advocating for is to use what

408
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:28,960
Speaker 10: is known as a talking pilibuster. It's basically a center

409
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 10: role that's been around forever in the Senate to basically

410
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:38,199
Speaker 10: require Democrats are opposed to ending debate on legislation that

411
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,159
Speaker 10: they would vote on, to continuously talk on the Senate

412
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,760
Speaker 10: floor until they basically just get exhausted and give up.

413
00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,760
Speaker 10: You know, we've seen the sort of thing. Yeah, No,

414
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:51,360
Speaker 10: it's an incredible sort of procedure and it's only been

415
00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,880
Speaker 10: used a couple times in history, but it's been used

416
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,240
Speaker 10: for major parts of legislation. We could see this that

417
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 10: it was used to pass parts of the Civil Rights

418
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:03,640
Speaker 10: Sack passed to pass major legislation in eighteen eighty three.

419
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:05,879
Speaker 10: So it's a big move that they would do in

420
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:08,199
Speaker 10: order to try and pass this. It would take a

421
00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:11,160
Speaker 10: lot of coordination that we can get into in order

422
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,679
Speaker 10: to pass it, but it is definitely a possibility that

423
00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 10: the Senate could take forward to take action on that.

424
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 1: Well, it seems like what it would take from the

425
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 1: Republicans is work and and that's the other component here.

426
00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,960
Speaker 1: They could talk for days and weeks if they wanted.

427
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: But you're saying by doing the talking filibuster, eventually the

428
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,800
Speaker 1: Save America Act could get passed if they do it now, who, like,

429
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,359
Speaker 1: what's the problem, Why don't they just do it? Like

430
00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 1: What'sdent's what's student doing?

431
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 10: Essentially what Center Republicans and Senate Majority John Thune would

432
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,360
Speaker 10: have to do and make sure that Center Republicans are

433
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:55,000
Speaker 10: on the same page on the Senate floor for potentially weeks,

434
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,640
Speaker 10: a month or two months even and that they agree

435
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:02,680
Speaker 10: on all potential amendments that Democrats could add to the

436
00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 10: legislation to make sure that they're all in agreement half

437
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,199
Speaker 10: the time that they're all presently uh working together on it.

438
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,720
Speaker 10: And there's a couple standstills that are not entirely on

439
00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 10: board with this plan. We can see very infamously, uh,

440
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:20,240
Speaker 10: the former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is not in

441
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,040
Speaker 10: favor of this, and this is something that one of

442
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 10: the Senate uh, one of the Kentucky Senate Republican candidates,

443
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 10: Nate Morris, and we reported that right Bright News, and

444
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 10: one of our interviews is that, you know, Mitch McConnell

445
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 10: has been quite a cudgel about this plan, and it's

446
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 10: to make sure that you know that that this thing

447
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 10: can get through. But it's it's one of the things

448
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 10: that requires a lot of coordination, a lot of buy

449
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,879
Speaker 10: in from everyone, and it oftentimes takes some problems. And

450
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 10: this is quite This is actually one of the reasons

451
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:53,760
Speaker 10: why it's it hasn't been used this often in history

452
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 10: for the Senator pass these sort of things through using

453
00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:00,240
Speaker 10: the talking filibuster is that it's just a required so

454
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:03,359
Speaker 10: much coration and frankly, it's so physically exhausting to be

455
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,480
Speaker 10: on the Senate for so long to get this done.

456
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:08,120
Speaker 10: But President Doald Trump is very committed to get it done.

457
00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,719
Speaker 10: So it's going to be interesting to see if the

458
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,160
Speaker 10: Senate Republican Conference can get to it and make sure

459
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 10: it happens.

460
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:17,000
Speaker 1: There's no way McConnell could stay awake for two hours,

461
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:20,000
Speaker 1: much less than thirty hours giving a break. I we're

462
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:23,399
Speaker 1: speaking with a policy reporter from Breitbart, Sean Moran, in

463
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 1: the Save America Act? Are there okay? We know that,

464
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: we know it. We'll get to why Democrats are opposed

465
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 1: to pushing this through? Are there other Republicans that are

466
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 1: opposed to this in the Senate?

467
00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:38,040
Speaker 10: From what I understand, and a lot of these center

468
00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 10: Republicans haven't been talking too publicly, but from I understand,

469
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 10: there's a handful of center Republicans that are a little

470
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:51,600
Speaker 10: uncomfortable with entirely eliminating mail in ballots. They often believe,

471
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:56,880
Speaker 10: the center Republicans that a lot of rural states want

472
00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,160
Speaker 10: to make sure that there are some provisions for mail

473
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,440
Speaker 10: in balloting to make sure that these rural states, which

474
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:05,960
Speaker 10: often you have to drive ten, fifteen, twenty thirty miles

475
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,119
Speaker 10: or however to your polling station, to make sure that

476
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 10: they can have that ability to vote by mail and

477
00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,680
Speaker 10: things like that. We know that there's often issues that

478
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,840
Speaker 10: come with mail in bouting. There's ways to have verification

479
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 10: of those mail in ballots, but I think that's one

480
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 10: of the bigger concerns that some kind of Republicans have.

481
00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 1: In this Yeah, what about the Democrats? Their argument is

482
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 1: that it's an oppressive piece of legislation. Their constituents don't

483
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:34,440
Speaker 1: know how to go get drivers' licenses. What if you

484
00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:36,919
Speaker 1: just get what if they're a woman and you just

485
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: got married and your name is different. Now, it's such

486
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:46,440
Speaker 1: a patronizing, sort of politically stupid thing to said Jim

487
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: Krobe two point zero. I'm hearing all these things, and

488
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 1: what are you hearing?

489
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 10: We often hear the same thing, and I think what

490
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 10: you said with the women issues and new ones that

491
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 10: they're doing. The former or Secretary of State Haley Klinn

492
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 10: brought this up and she said that women that you

493
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:07,480
Speaker 10: said changed their names, would you know no longer be

494
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 10: able to vote? And my wife is able to vote.

495
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 10: She changed her name and when she married me, and

496
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,200
Speaker 10: what do you know, she could still vote.

497
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:15,240
Speaker 1: So I don't know.

498
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,920
Speaker 10: I think it's gonna work for women. So maybe maybe

499
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,320
Speaker 10: I'm aong for other people. But it is often very

500
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,280
Speaker 10: interesting when they try to bring up a new talking

501
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,400
Speaker 10: point that it's not going to discourage women are minority

502
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 10: is from voting, which apparently a lot of people don't

503
00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:32,120
Speaker 10: have licensed IDs to be able to do anything else

504
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:32,520
Speaker 10: in life.

505
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,240
Speaker 1: It's so ridiculous. You need an ID to fish, you

506
00:28:35,320 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: need an ID to get a license to fish, or

507
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,840
Speaker 1: to buy alcohol, to buy sudafed, for God's sake, but

508
00:28:41,880 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 1: you can't. Somehow is it possible for minorities to make

509
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 1: it to the DMVD or wherever you would get your

510
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: ID to go vote?

511
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:51,000
Speaker 3: Why?

512
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:54,880
Speaker 1: What's the real reason Democrats don't want this to go through,

513
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:56,960
Speaker 1: the real reason.

514
00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,760
Speaker 10: I think there's a lot of concern that perhaps there

515
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,720
Speaker 10: might be some This is the argument I think from

516
00:29:04,720 --> 00:29:07,560
Speaker 10: the right, that people would say that there's a lot

517
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,720
Speaker 10: of ballots or roles that may not be one hundred

518
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 10: percent valid, and that they might courage it with this

519
00:29:13,480 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 10: sort of thing, and then maybe it would be a

520
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:19,840
Speaker 10: little harder for you know, election integrity may not always

521
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,040
Speaker 10: go their way, or say, I don't know it. It

522
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,880
Speaker 10: makes one wonder. I'm still looking into the issue, but

523
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:29,160
Speaker 10: I think that's the argument I've heard from someone the

524
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:30,280
Speaker 10: right that believe.

525
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 1: Democrats this isn't I mean, even like, yeah, I saw

526
00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:35,600
Speaker 1: the other night, we played a clip yesterday on the

527
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:39,440
Speaker 1: show of CNN and its own polling says voter ID

528
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:43,640
Speaker 1: is not a controversial issue. What of the what are

529
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 1: the numbers you've seen on polling in people, you know,

530
00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 1: average everyday citizens and even Democrats as a whole, Democrats

531
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 1: want voter ID that are that are normal, average everyday

532
00:29:55,640 --> 00:30:00,680
Speaker 1: citizens that aren't lawmakers. I mean, it's not a controversial thing, right.

533
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:04,120
Speaker 10: Many of the polls say to be strong majorities even

534
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:08,480
Speaker 10: up to like eighty twenty eighty favor twenty against things

535
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,280
Speaker 10: like that, This is not a particularly controversial issue. And

536
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 10: I mean, for Democrats. They're often concerned about forid influence

537
00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 10: from Russia or you know, meddling in our elections. This

538
00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 10: is one meddling and our electoral integrity issue sort of

539
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 10: system that they don't really want to deal with. You

540
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,320
Speaker 10: know what if Russians just want to put in fake

541
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 10: ballots that might help Republicans, I'm just gonna think of

542
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 10: out loud about something like that. But that's not something

543
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 10: they seem to be particularly concerned about.

544
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: Sean Moran, Breitbart policy reporter. What are you working on

545
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: at Breitbart dot com?

546
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:41,680
Speaker 3: Right now?

547
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 10: So we're going to be looking a lot more into

548
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 10: what's happening next week with the Senate moving forward on

549
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 10: the Save of America Act, and we're going to have

550
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 10: a more evergreen piece that's going to explain the history

551
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 10: of the filibuster, what center Republicans want to do about it,

552
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:57,240
Speaker 10: how this talking filibuster will work. So be sure to

553
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:58,120
Speaker 10: check out a reporting.

554
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,240
Speaker 1: We're gonna have a lot more going on that A

555
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,479
Speaker 1: double edged sword, I think for Republicans, if they got

556
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 1: rid of the filibuster, for sure, I'm not sure what

557
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: the answer is here. I think the talking filibuster is

558
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: definitely a thing though, in my opinion, and and Phone

559
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: needs to get his act together here on this thing

560
00:31:14,560 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: for sure. Sean Moran, thank you for keeping us updated.

561
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,880

00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 7: A thank's going to be okay?

568
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 6: Are you okay?

569
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:41,680
Speaker 3: Yeah?

570
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 2: I'm fine.

571
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 8: I'm pretty freeking far from okay?

572
00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:47,600
Speaker 3: Are you okay with this?

573
00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:48,160
Speaker 6: On?

574
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 1: Nigel Himory? Have you heard about this chick that shut

575
00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,040
Speaker 1: up Rihanna's house in La?

576
00:31:57,320 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 2: This was crazy.

577
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: Vanna Ortiz, some thirty five year old woman accused of

578
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: shooting several rounds into Rihanna's house Sunday. She's been arrested

579
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 1: for attempted murder. Bail has said at like ten million dollars.

580
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 3: Here.

581
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 1: Here are clips from two videos that she posted while

582
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 1: she was disturbingly talking about Rihanna, and the first one

583
00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:27,480
Speaker 1: you'll hear that she refers to her death.

584
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:32,560
Speaker 11: Rihanna wants to say that we are flying and we're

585
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:37,320
Speaker 11: not the way that Rihanna wants to kill me shows

586
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:42,360
Speaker 11: that we're not going to show this right now. Listen, Rihanna,

587
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:46,760
Speaker 11: when you die, God is taking me to my future.

588
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's a witch.

589
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 3: I'm a watchman.

590
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 2: She's a witch.

591
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: Get that stupid girl out of here.

592
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,280
Speaker 12: I'm fighting with the devil himself. And that's why you

593
00:32:57,360 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 12: got Rihanna over there all jealous. Her faith is the devil.

594
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,880
Speaker 12: Rihanna's faith is the devil. Okay, I don't like her,

595
00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 12: and she's always trying to steal from me and so

596
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:08,560
Speaker 12: that she can.

597
00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,080
Speaker 2: Okay, you can stop it right there.

598
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 1: The thing is, Ivanna is kinda hot. I'm going to

599
00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:16,920
Speaker 1: be honest with you, but are you okay with this?

600
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:17,760
Speaker 3: It's the question.

601
00:33:18,280 --> 00:33:21,560
Speaker 2: No, I'm not okay with this because I don't care

602
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 2: how hot Avanna. Maybe one, Rihanna's hotter, and number two,

603
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,840
Speaker 2: the hot crazy matrix does not have a chance to

604
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,520
Speaker 2: catch up here. Dudes are willing to put up with

605
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 2: a little crazy if the chick is hot, they're not

606
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 2: willing to put up with firing rounds into the house,

607
00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,240
Speaker 2: trying to murder her while she's home, and talking about witchcraft.

608
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,760
Speaker 2: There's not a hot enough level for that. Even Sydney

609
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 2: Sweeney would be out of the question if she started

610
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 2: firing rounds into my house. And Rihanna was home when

611
00:33:53,080 --> 00:33:56,360
Speaker 2: this was happening. That's why they got the attempted murder charge.

612
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 2: Rihanna was home. It was like one of those old

613
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,200
Speaker 2: school nineties hood movies. She had to duck and take

614
00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:05,360
Speaker 2: cover as gunfire was coming into her house. So no,

615
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 2: not okay with this. And this is pretty frank.

616
00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,480
Speaker 1: Did you hear like I've heard? And Allison could comment

617
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 1: on this too, like I heard like Rihanna's performance. Did

618
00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 1: she at the Super Bowl last year the couple of

619
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,400
Speaker 1: years ago a couple of years ago where they said

620
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,600
Speaker 1: there was satanic imagery and she was making some sort

621
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,480
Speaker 1: of hand signals that had to do with Satan and

622
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:29,879
Speaker 1: stuff like that. Did you guys hear that?

623
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 2: I remember hearing that, but I don't think that's anywhere true.

624
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 2: I think people were looking a little too deep and

625
00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:40,600
Speaker 2: too pregnant at the time. Rihanna's performed at the Super
