1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,520 Speaker 1: So what day is? Today? Is today? Wednesday? 2 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:06,760 Speaker 2: Today is Wednesday? And what is it with holiday weeks? 3 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 2: And I know a lot of people had the day 4 00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:11,159 Speaker 2: off on Monday. I mean, obviously it's always difficult to 5 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:13,520 Speaker 2: figure out what day it is, but Tuesday feels like Monday. 6 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 2: Wednesday feels like Tuesday, Thursday. Have no idea what's going on. 7 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:19,760 Speaker 2: But there's something about when you've got a day off 8 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:22,239 Speaker 2: in a week, like for this week, for example, a 9 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 2: lot of people had Monday off, and you go into 10 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 2: that work week thinking, oh, short week is gonna be nice. 11 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:29,840 Speaker 3: Only four workdays this week. This could be great, But 12 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:30,479 Speaker 3: for some. 13 00:00:30,440 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 2: Reason, emotionally, it feels even longer than the normal week. 14 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 2: And that repeats itself time and time again. I'm not 15 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 2: just talking about just this week. That seems like anytime 16 00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,560 Speaker 2: there's a holiday like that, it feels like the week 17 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:46,320 Speaker 2: that should feel shorter feels much longer. There should be 18 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 2: like a word or a phrase, something infelish. 19 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: Language to describe it. Let's come up with a couple. 20 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: You've got to like what time taffy? Because it stretches long, stretching, 21 00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 1: Then you think it should. 22 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 2: Not jet lag but day lag. Oh, I like because 23 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 2: it's it's caused by the calendar. It feels like it's 24 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:07,680 Speaker 2: stretching and you're just dragging. 25 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,400 Speaker 1: That's a good one. You've got fraud week. 26 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 2: That's exactly what it should be. That's the best one. 27 00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 2: So yeah, this week is a fraud. It is a fraud. 28 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: It is lying right to our faces. It's telling me 29 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 2: it's a four day week. But emotionally it feels like 30 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 2: it's seven day work week. 31 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 4: Emotionally and physically sometimes it feels like it's seven days. 32 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: It does a day right now, feels like a year. 33 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 2: It's just week, the longest four day work week of 34 00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:39,119 Speaker 2: the year, brutal, and we're only on Wednesday, and that's 35 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 2: only day two of the work weeks. 36 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 4: Because we're in the middle of winter and it's constantly. 37 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 3: Gray, that's a contributing factor for sure. 38 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 4: Hey, speaking of fraud, did you hear what's going on 39 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 4: in Minnesota? And we're gonna get to Donald Trump and 40 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 4: dabos in Greenland and everything he said at his press 41 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 4: conference in just a minute. 42 00:01:55,200 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: But we have to talk about what's going on in Minnesota. 43 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 4: You've got Michelle Tafoya a noun saying that she is 44 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 4: running for US Senate. Now explain to everybody who Michelle 45 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 4: Tafoya is. 46 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 3: Well. 47 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 2: Football fans certainly a recognize her. She was an NFL 48 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: sideline reporter for decades and really one of the top 49 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 2: sideline reporters in the NFL. She retired in twenty twenty two. 50 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 2: Her last game that she worked, she was the sideline 51 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: reporter for Super Bowl fifty six. So somebody that was 52 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 2: literally at the top of her profession. 53 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: And she did a mic drop and set them out. 54 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 3: And she set them out. I'm done. 55 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: She immediately started expressing her views that she's been a 56 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: conservative her whole life. Obviously, she was very vocal during 57 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four presidential election, and now she's made 58 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: her announcement that she is going to be running for 59 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 2: Senate from the state of Minnesota. 60 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 4: She said that Minnesota is facing a leadership crisis, no kidding, 61 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,519 Speaker 4: and that career politicians have caused all the current problems 62 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,399 Speaker 4: and won't fix them. And she framed it that this 63 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 4: isn't left versus right, this is right versus wrong, and 64 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 4: that her campaign is about putting people first, not politics 65 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,200 Speaker 4: as usual. Interesting to have somebody from the media side 66 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 4: of things go into office. 67 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, and really interesting to have somebody from the sports 68 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 2: media side of things, because when we think about people 69 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 2: from the sports world moving into politics, you think about 70 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 2: former coaches and athletes, whether it's Tommy Tubberville or Herschel 71 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 2: Walker who ran for senate from the state of Georgia 72 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 2: in the last election cycle. But rarely have we seen 73 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 2: somebody from the sports media world attempt to make that 74 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 2: shift into politics. And it might be happening more often 75 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: going forward here because famed college football analyst Paul Feinbaum 76 00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: has come out and said now he hasn't officially filed, 77 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: but he's come out and said he plans on running 78 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 2: for senate as well from the state of Alabama. 79 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: Well, and Stephen A. Smith as well has been getting 80 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: more vocal about his views. 81 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 2: And it's interesting because Stephen A. Smith was a huge 82 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: analyst in the sports world. Now he hasn't talked about 83 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 2: you expressed serious interest about running for public office, but 84 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: in his podcast, in his show appearances, he has definitely 85 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 2: made a conscious shift away from sports and into politics. 86 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 4: So Michelle Tafoya, she recently met with the National Republican 87 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 4: Senatorial Committee, who actually recruited her, and. 88 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 1: We'll see how that goes. 89 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 4: But you've got former sports or entertainment figure running for 90 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 4: Congress or Senate this election cycle, and she already has 91 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 4: I guess in Minnesota some built in name recognition, also 92 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 4: some communication experience. 93 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: And that's why we see people that come from the 94 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 2: sports world and from the media world. They have that 95 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: instant leg up when they do decide to run for 96 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 2: politics because people know their name, and that can be 97 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: so difficult just to get that name recognition. That's you know, 98 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 2: I mean, if you'd never heard of the person before, 99 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 2: I don't know anything about him. I don't even know 100 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 2: their name. You're starting at zero. Somebody like Michelle Tafoya, 101 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 2: who certainly is well known in the state of Minnesota, 102 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: and beyond that, she announces that she's running for senate. 103 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 2: Instantly she he's got that name recognition, and people are like, oh, yeah, 104 00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 2: Michelle Defoy. I always see her on the sidelines from 105 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 2: the Eagles game or the Vikings game. 106 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: Well, it worked for Donald Trump. 107 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 3: Worked for Donald Trump coming from the media, and again 108 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 3: that world. 109 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: Well didn't think it was going to work for him, 110 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 1: but it certainly did. 111 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: And it works for certain sports figures as well, like 112 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 2: Tommy Tupperville, who was a longtime college football coach, and 113 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: when he decided that he was going to start, you know, 114 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 2: running for Congress, people already know your name and that 115 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 2: you know, usually it takes hundreds of thousands, if not 116 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: millions of dollars just to get your name out there 117 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 2: and get that kind of name recognition. That these people 118 00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 2: are jumping into the game and from day one, they've 119 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 2: already got that name recognition. 120 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 1: So let's talk about Donald Trump. 121 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 4: He held a two hour White House press briefing yesterday 122 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 4: and it marked his one year and his second term. 123 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 4: It happened just before his trip to Davos, Switzerland for 124 00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 4: the World Economic Forum. He brought out a stack of 125 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 4: papers and kind of just boom placed them on the 126 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:57,480 Speaker 4: podium and it was labeled accomplishments, and he emphasized immigration 127 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 4: crackdowns and also economic policies. And he during that press 128 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 4: briefing says that he wants to give out two thousand 129 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 4: dollars tariff dividend checks to middle class families without Congress's approval. 130 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 3: With Kevin has it on that or you think you 131 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,120 Speaker 3: can do that? You know not? Only I don't think we. 132 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 5: Would have to go to the Congress out, but you know, 133 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,080 Speaker 5: we'll find out. The reason we're even talking about it 134 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 5: is that we have so much money coming in from 135 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 5: tariffs that we'll be able to issue at least a 136 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 5: two thousand dollars dividend and also pay down debt for 137 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,719 Speaker 5: the country. But we do a two thousand dollars dividend 138 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 5: to the people of our country would probably set a 139 00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 5: limit of you know, income limit where it made sense. 140 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 5: But we will be able to make a very substantial 141 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,479 Speaker 5: dividend to the people of our country. I believe we 142 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 5: can do that without Congress. 143 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: And when is that going to happen? Oh, right before midterms? 144 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 3: Possible, right before midterms? 145 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: Hey case, you imagine that what happened the last time? 146 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,719 Speaker 2: The government just started sending out one thousand of dollars 147 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,719 Speaker 2: of checks to every single human in the entire country. 148 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: Nothing Oh wait yeah, no inflation and we're so massive. 149 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 2: And you remember how when everybody got those COVID checks 150 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,679 Speaker 2: that kept coming in, those sweet sweet COVID relief money 151 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 2: from the federal tax dollars. 152 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 3: You remember what everybody did. They saved it and they 153 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:18,680 Speaker 3: paid down debt. 154 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: Do you remember that everybody made wise financial decisions and 155 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 2: either saved it or paid down some debt. 156 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 3: That's what. 157 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 2: Oh, No, people blew it on silly, frivolous things for 158 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 2: the most part, and just general consumer spending, which sent 159 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:34,119 Speaker 2: inflation through the roof in near ten percent while Biden 160 00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 2: was in office. 161 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 4: Well, I just saw a statistic this morning, actually, and 162 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,119 Speaker 4: it said, in regards to tariffs, four percent is coming 163 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 4: from foreign countries. Ninety six percent of it is coming 164 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 4: at the expense of the American people. 165 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: And it sounds like, I mean, how bad do things 166 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 2: have to be to where when the president says, hey, 167 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give every taxpayer a two thousand dollars check, 168 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 2: Normally I'd be like, yes, give me some money, money 169 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: back from the federal government. But we've seen this store 170 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 2: sorry before. And I love the famous line that history 171 00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 2: doesn't repeat itself, but it does rhyme. 172 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 3: And we've seen this rhyme before. It rhymes so much. 173 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: It was like a pop song during COVID and we 174 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 2: all got those checks and inflation went through the roof. Yeah, 175 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 2: if Trump does this, I'll take the two grand And 176 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: what do we do just cross our fingers and hope 177 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 2: that we're not seeing seven dollars for a dozen eggs again, 178 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:24,360 Speaker 2: this time around. 179 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 1: Hope is not an action plan. 180 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 4: He was also talking about the Supreme Court's decision about 181 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 4: the tariffs. Who, well, the Supreme Court has not decided 182 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 4: on this case and the president's use of emergency powers 183 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,080 Speaker 4: to impose the tariffs. But here's what he had to 184 00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:41,959 Speaker 4: say about that. 185 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,800 Speaker 5: Taken in hundreds of billions of dollars, and if we 186 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 5: lose that case, it's possible we're going to have to 187 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 5: do the best we can in paying it back. I 188 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 5: don't know how that's going to be done very easily 189 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 5: without hurting a lot of people. But we're waiting for 190 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 5: that case anxiously. And we have tremendous national security because 191 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,200 Speaker 5: of tariffs, and tremendous income you know we have. And 192 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 5: by the way, no inflation. So everyone said, oh, tariff 193 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 5: will cause inflation. We have no inflation. We have very 194 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 5: little inflation. Biden had inflation and he didn't do tariffs. 195 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 5: We had a huge problem. We had. We have a 196 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 5: sixty two percent reduction in our trade deficit. So if 197 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 5: you had a one percent reduction, a normal president would 198 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 5: have a one percent two percent reduction. Everybody would be 199 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,480 Speaker 5: high fiving. I had a sixty two percent reduction next year, 200 00:09:33,480 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 5: we won't have a trade deficit. 201 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: Okay, So the Supreme Court released three other rulings. They 202 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,920 Speaker 1: weren't related to tariffs. Let's see if you know anything 203 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: about these Supreme Court rulings. 204 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 3: Oh, this would be fun Burg versus CHOI. Well, you 205 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 3: can't just give me then you don't know anything. I 206 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:50,559 Speaker 3: don't know nothing about that. 207 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,280 Speaker 1: Elling Berg versus United States. 208 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 2: I don't get any details on what these had to 209 00:09:54,520 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 2: do with. No, I don't know anything about Ellingberg versus the. 210 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:01,239 Speaker 4: United States, Cony Island Auto Parts Unlimited versus. 211 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 3: Now that one. I like Coney Island Auto Parts Unlimited. 212 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 4: It's about whether a company can challenge a court judgment 213 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 4: as void years later. 214 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 2: Riveting Supreme Court decisions. I don't know when the decision 215 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: is going to come down about tariffs. 216 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 1: U nobody does. 217 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: The Supreme Court usually works on their own timetable, and 218 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,959 Speaker 2: typically when the new year starts is when you get 219 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: all of these arguments in front of the Supreme Court, 220 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 2: and then the Supreme Court sits on them and does 221 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 2: whatever the Supreme Court does, thinks about him, reviews law 222 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,320 Speaker 2: books and precedent, and then they usually don't come out, 223 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 2: especially the big decisions don't come out until the beginning 224 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 2: of the summer, So we could be sitting around for 225 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 2: a long time before we get any ruling from the 226 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 2: Supreme Court. 227 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:40,920 Speaker 3: Yea. 228 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 4: And they have not said when they're going to release 229 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 4: any more opinions. And of course you've got Trump now 230 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 4: threatening another ten percent tariff on eight European countries. Now, 231 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 4: he did go off topic a few times during his 232 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 4: press conference. Here he is talking about renaming the Gulf 233 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 4: of America. 234 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 5: Why is it the Gulf of Mexico should be the 235 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 5: Golf of America. I was going to call it the 236 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 5: Gulf of Trump, but I thought that I would be 237 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 5: killed if I did that. I wanted to do it. 238 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 5: I wanted to My baby works so hard. 239 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 3: Sure, don't take it all look too good. 240 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,600 Speaker 5: I'm telling you, it's a good thing, and it'll be 241 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 5: hotter than ever. I said, no, but I decided not 242 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 5: to do that. I'm joking, you know, when I say that, 243 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 5: I was not going to call it the Gulf of Trump. 244 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: I don't know was he? 245 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 2: I mean, he put his name on the Kennedy Center, 246 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 2: didn't he. It's now the Trump Kennedy Center. 247 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 1: Never know, is he really joking? 248 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 2: Doesn't sound like something When Trump says something like that, 249 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: your immediate reaction is, yeah, I can totally believe that 250 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 2: that's something Trump would totally do. Like the golf of 251 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 2: changing it to the Gulf of America, wasn't enough changing 252 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 2: it to the Gulf of Trump, people would have lost 253 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 2: their minds. 254 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely so. He was also asked about last year. 255 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: He said that he believed he won the election because 256 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 4: God put him in the place so he could save 257 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 4: the world, and a asked him about that. 258 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 6: First of all, last year, you told me that you 259 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,439 Speaker 6: believe that the reason you won election is because God 260 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 6: put you in this place so that you could save 261 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 6: the world. Looking back one year, do you feel like 262 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,720 Speaker 6: God is proud of the effort thing you played? 263 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 5: I do, Actually, I think God is very proud of 264 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 5: the job I've done, and that includes for religion. You know, 265 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 5: we're protecting a lot of people that are being killed 266 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 5: Christians and Jewish people, and lots of people are being 267 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 5: protected by me that wouldn't be protected by another type 268 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 5: of president. No, I think I think a lot of 269 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:35,959 Speaker 5: people are very proud of the job we've done. We've 270 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 5: had an amazing year. This has been one of the 271 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 5: greatest years. Even some people that wouldn't necessarily love me instinctively, 272 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 5: they're saying, this was an incredible year. 273 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. 274 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,479 Speaker 4: So, I think the fascinating part about that entire conversation 275 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 4: not that Trump is saying God put him there, but 276 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 4: just on the religious aspect of it, that he's talking 277 00:12:58,559 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 4: about it so openly. 278 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's something that, Look, nobody's going to accuse 279 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:06,959 Speaker 2: Trump of having a long history of espousing his faith. 280 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,840 Speaker 2: Being a narcissist maybe that, but not having a long 281 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 2: history of espousing faith. It really hasn't been something he's 282 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 2: talked about much until he became a politician. And it's 283 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 2: funny how a lot of politicians seem to find their 284 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 2: faith as soon as they start running for office. But 285 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 2: what a ridiculous question. Do you think God would be 286 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,079 Speaker 2: proud of you for the job you've done? I mean, 287 00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 2: how do you even begin to answer that question? 288 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: Just like he did? 289 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 3: I guess, I guess. 290 00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,559 Speaker 1: So it is the Kendily Casey Show. It's ninety three, WYBC. 291 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 4: Are you're spending your life in the fast lane? 292 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,320 Speaker 2: No, you're well aware that I am not only not 293 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 2: in the fast lane, I'm not even in the slow lane. 294 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 3: I'm over parked on the median, are you. 295 00:13:56,360 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 2: I think our our New Year's Eve celebrate is probably 296 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 2: a great example of that. 297 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, twelve oh one. Great, that's done. Let's go to bed. 298 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: Let's go to bed. So let's talk about this article. 299 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:12,440 Speaker 4: In the US, networth generally increases as people get older. 300 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 4: Data shows that aging, time and investing are the biggest 301 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 4: drivers of wealth. Of course, please consult with your own 302 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 4: personal financial advisor. 303 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,680 Speaker 1: But this article says that. 304 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,960 Speaker 4: The average fifty something American is now worth one point 305 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 4: four million dollars. Do you remember when you were little 306 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 4: and you thought, wow. 307 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: You're a millionaire? Yeah, okay, does it mean so much anymore? 308 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 2: This article, in that headline is going to garner a 309 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 2: lot of attention, and you're going to see this a 310 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 2: lot in the coming days about how the average, you know, 311 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 2: person who's fifty plus is worth one point four million dollars. 312 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 2: It is a very deceptive headline, and actually the article 313 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,160 Speaker 2: calls itself out by. 314 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 3: The end of the article. 315 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: So if you remember when you were in grade school 316 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 2: and you were in math class and they talked about 317 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 2: the average and there's three different ways to calculate the average, 318 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 2: and it can be the mean, the median, or the 319 00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 2: mode and mean as you add them all up and 320 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: divide by the number, and that's how you get it. 321 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: The median is half or more and half or less, 322 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 2: and the mode is you know the number of times 323 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 2: that specific number comes up. When you talk about financial information, 324 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: everybody always. 325 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 3: Uses the median. 326 00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 2: We talk about the median home price in the United 327 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: States or here in the state of Indiana. That's the 328 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,480 Speaker 2: one and it gives you a much clearer picture of 329 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 2: where things sit. Well, when they wrote the headline of 330 00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 2: this article, they used the mean, which means they add 331 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 2: up everybody's net worth and then they divide by the 332 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 2: number of people. But the problem with that is super 333 00:15:34,440 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 2: ultra high net worth individuals like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, 334 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 2: who are each almost worth a trillion dollars, completely throw 335 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 2: that number way off, and so you get down to 336 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 2: the bottom in the article and they're like, oh, okay, 337 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: but the median savings for fifty people that are fifty 338 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 2: ONCET is more like what one hundred and forty two 339 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 2: thousand or something. 340 00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: Well, they did break it down for age group. 341 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 4: They say twenty somethings, the average is one hundred and 342 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 4: twenty seven thousand, seven hundred thirty dollars, but the median 343 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 4: is six thousand, six hundred and eighty nine. They say 344 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 4: many twenty somethings start out with student loan debt, car loans, 345 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 4: credit card debt, and the goal is to get back 346 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 4: to zero financially. For thirty somethings, the average is three 347 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 4: hundred twenty one thousand, five hundred forty nine dollars, but 348 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 4: the median is twenty four thousand, five hundred eight dollars. 349 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 2: That those are massive differences, not huge differences for thirty somethings. 350 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 4: Their challenges include childcare costs, higher living expenses, delayed home ownership. 351 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:39,680 Speaker 4: I now saw that the first time home buyer is 352 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 4: now forty years old, the oldest it's ever been. They 353 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 4: also say that career growth and beginning your retirement savings 354 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 4: plays into that. Now, for forty somethings, the average is 355 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 4: seven hundred seventy thousand dollars eight hundred and ninety two, 356 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 4: but the median seventy six thousand, four hundred and seventy 357 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 4: nine dollars. 358 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 1: So finde a difference if. 359 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 3: You see that headline and you see that. 360 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 2: You know, it says that the average net worth of 361 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 2: an individual fifty or older is one point four million dollars, 362 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 2: and you think to yourself, my gosh, I'm over fifty. 363 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: My networth and anywhere near one point four million does 364 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 2: settle down. 365 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 3: You're not that far behind. It's okay. 366 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 2: When it comes to the median net worth of somebody 367 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,440 Speaker 2: over fifty, it's much closer to one hundred and fifty. 368 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:26,719 Speaker 4: So for the forty somethings it's often their peak earning years, 369 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,359 Speaker 4: but that's when the childcare costs start to decline, but 370 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,760 Speaker 4: you're still financially stretched. 371 00:17:33,080 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 1: Many families are fifty somethings. 372 00:17:35,480 --> 00:17:37,600 Speaker 4: Let's get to this group, okay, which is what the 373 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 4: article was based on. They say the average is one 374 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 4: point four million dollars, but the median one hundred and 375 00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 4: ninety two thousand, nine hundred and sixty four. 376 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, so that that's going to be much more of 377 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 2: your typical average person. And again, because the way they 378 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 2: calculated that average of one point four million dollars. 379 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 3: All the super super ultra uber. 380 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:00,400 Speaker 2: Rich people get thrown into that calculation and throw the curve. 381 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 2: It's it's like, remember when you would get graded on 382 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 2: a curve in school, and you had the two or 383 00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 2: three somebody really smart, right, the two or three smart 384 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 2: kids in the class ruin the curve for everybody else. 385 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 2: That's what they did to make this headline seem shocking 386 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:15,159 Speaker 2: and unbelievable. It's because it is. 387 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 4: So. 388 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 2: The average person doesn't have a net worth at one 389 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,399 Speaker 2: point four million million, it's more like one hundred and. 390 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: Ninety ninety two. 391 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, and home equity becomes the largest asset as you 392 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:31,000 Speaker 4: age even further beyond fifty sixty somethings they say their 393 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 4: average net worth is one point six million. What's the 394 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,440 Speaker 4: real number, two hundred and ninety thousand, much closer. Yeah, 395 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 4: and then for seventy somethings it's one point five million, 396 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,880 Speaker 4: with the median at two hundred and thirty two thousand. 397 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 4: And that's actually when your net worth, they claim, starts 398 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 4: to decline, most likely because you're paying healthcare costs and 399 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 4: dipping into retirement. 400 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you're not working anymore.

But 502 00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:47,400 Speaker 4: then when you live through six hurricanes, you realize, oh, 503 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 4: that's why. 504 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:49,400 Speaker 3: I get it. 505 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 2: It was interesting in this list, Indiana comes in at 506 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 2: number eight, and what's been talked about a lot lately 507 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 2: is the Chicago Bears potentially putting their stadium in Indiana 508 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 2: from Illinois. And what's a more pro business state. Indiana 509 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 2: ranked eighth as far as business friendliness, Illinois all the 510 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 2: way down at twenty nine. 511 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 1: Oh okay, and again not seeing this play out in 512 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: real time. 513 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, but not a surprise to see that. 514 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 2: I think we all know Illinois is kind of a 515 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 2: dumpster fire and has high taxes and high regulations, really 516 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:17,199 Speaker 2: difficult state for business. But to see that play out 517 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 2: in real time, because we've talked about potentially the Chicago 518 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,000 Speaker 2: Bear stadium coming to Indiana, you know this list ranking 519 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 2: certainly tracks and spells that out pretty clearly. 520 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 4: So what are the worst states to start a business? Well, 521 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 4: Hawaii is on the list, and well, of course everything 522 00:24:32,600 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 4: has to be imported in Yeah. 523 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if that's really fair to Hawaii in 524 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 2: their business mind of environment, because, like you talked about 525 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 2: the You know, it's not a self sustaining place because 526 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 2: it's so small, and anything coming again. 527 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 3: Has to go over a big ocean. 528 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 2: Either you're importing over a long way from Asia, you're 529 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 2: importing a long way from the from the. 530 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 3: United States mainland. 531 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 2: Yea, Hawaii's got a completely different set of challenges. 532 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 4: Another state that ranks near the bottom to start a 533 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,880 Speaker 4: business is Maryland. It's bad for business environment and also 534 00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:09,840 Speaker 4: business costs. And the worst state overall for a business 535 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:11,840 Speaker 4: environment Rhode Island. 536 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 2: And look at the bottom states. No surprise that they're 537 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 2: all heavily democratic. Rhode Island Democratic, Maryland, Democratic, Hawaii, Connecticut, 538 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,040 Speaker 2: New Jersey, Pennsylvania. I mean, all the states at the 539 00:25:22,040 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 2: bottom of the list are Democrats strongholds, strongholds by a mile. 540 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 4: So something that happened here in Indiana. The Senate Committee 541 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 4: adopted the state tax cut for overtime on tips. This 542 00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 4: was a finance panel and they approved it for one year. 543 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,359 Speaker 4: The change it was added to an amendment to Senate 544 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 4: Bill two forty three. It passed the committee eleven to one, 545 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 4: and then it's going to move to the Senate floor. 546 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 4: And they say that this tax break could cost the 547 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 4: state two hundred and fifty one. 548 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: Million dollars in revenue. 549 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 4: Of course, there was discussion on that whether they were 550 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 4: going to do this on the state level to match 551 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 4: the federal level. 552 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 1: And for a while I thought it wasn't going to happen. 553 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 1: But now they're saying, yeah, it is. 554 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 4: The funding is going to come from quote Indiana's state 555 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,680 Speaker 4: surplus and reserves. I thought we just had to raise 556 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:17,919 Speaker 4: taxes because we didn't have enough money. 557 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 3: Yeah we did. Actually, it's a funny thing how that worked. 558 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 2: If you remember last year the state said is the 559 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 2: lawmakers are wrapping up session. They were like, oh my gosh, 560 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 2: we're going to have this massive shortfall. We've got to 561 00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 2: cut spending. Oh and by the way, we're also going 562 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 2: to raise taxes by a billion dollars. 563 00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:33,640 Speaker 3: And then as time went on, it. 564 00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 2: Turned out, oh, those financial productions weren't right right, And 565 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 2: turns out we really didn't need to raise taxes at all, 566 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 2: and so. 567 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 1: They're going to keep the taxes in place. Though absolutely 568 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 1: they're not going to get that money. 569 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 2: Mapp yeaheah. They're the one billion dollars in new taxes. Absolutely, 570 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 2: those are never going away. Now, we may give you 571 00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:54,600 Speaker 2: a little bit of that money back in this by 572 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: you know, passing this law that'll match the big bullcrap 573 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 2: bill which gave you know people no tax on tips, 574 00:27:00,119 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 2: some other small tax savings, but absolutely those taxes from 575 00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,639 Speaker 2: last year, those aren't going nowhere. 576 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 3: They're sticking around. 577 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 4: Okay, So this is going to align with the federal rules. 578 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,760 Speaker 4: No tax on tips, no tax on overtime, and no 579 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 4: tax on loan interest for American made vehicles, all from 580 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 4: Trump's one big beautiful bill. And it looks like this 581 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,639 Speaker 4: is going to be a year. The break is for 582 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 4: twenty six wages that are going to be filed, so 583 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 4: this is. 584 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 3: Only going to be for a year. Yeah, that's it. 585 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 3: They're going on for one year. Is that what they're 586 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 3: calling it? A test run? 587 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 1: To see if that's what I'm calling that you're calling it? 588 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, isn't that funny when the taxes, when we get 589 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,679 Speaker 2: new taxes like last year, those are permanent, They're going 590 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 2: to stay forever. 591 00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 3: That wasn't just a. 592 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 1: Wonderful to see how it goes. 593 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 3: See how it goes when it comes to change your mind? Letter, 594 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:49,400 Speaker 3: you getting your money back? 595 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 2: Settle down, all right, We're just going to dip our 596 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 2: toe in the water here and see what happens just 597 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 2: one year. 598 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 4: You've got Senator Travis Holdman. He supports the measure. He 599 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 4: called it a temporary relief for workers. Notice the word temporary. 600 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 4: You've got Senator Andrea Hunley, who is being rumored that 601 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,919 Speaker 4: she might run for mayor of Indianapolis. She opposed it, 602 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:16,760 Speaker 4: and she cited that Indiana still taxes period products at 603 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 4: only a five million dollar cost. And then you've got 604 00:28:20,119 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 4: the president, the Senate President pro Tem Rod Bray. He 605 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 4: praised the measure as part of a decade long track 606 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 4: record of tax cuts. 607 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 2: Okay, And by the way, Senator Andrea Huntley back to 608 00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 2: her and her potential aspirations to be mayor of Indianapolis. 609 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 2: It was just late last week, I think, or over 610 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 2: the weekend that she came out and announced she will 611 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 2: not seek reelection for her state Senate seat. 612 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: Right, which opens the door for her to run. 613 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: It's been rumored for a long time that she may 614 00:28:48,640 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 2: be run for mayor of Indianapolis, but her not running 615 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 2: for reelection certainly fuels those rumors even more. 616 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,280 Speaker 1: This is the Kendally Casey Show.
