1 00:00:03,760 --> 00:00:07,280 Speaker 1: So it looks like the Indiana General Assembly is about 2 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:09,520 Speaker 1: to spurn President Trump again. 3 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,120 Speaker 2: They're not going to adopt all of the elements of 4 00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:19,320 Speaker 2: the one Big Beautiful Bill. Possibly. You've got Representative Thompson, 5 00:00:19,360 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 2: you know, he's the tax guru over there at the 6 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 2: state House. 7 00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,959 Speaker 1: Smartest man in the state House. He's been at it 8 00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: since the Clinton administration. He has been able to figure 9 00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,280 Speaker 1: anything out. But he's the smartest guy in the state House. 10 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 2: He said that discussions are ongoing about what they're going 11 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:33,239 Speaker 2: to do. 12 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:35,639 Speaker 1: Okay, so what we're talking about here is last year, 13 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: of course, they passed this legalized vote buying operation, better 14 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,120 Speaker 1: known as the Big Beautiful Bill. And there are all 15 00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,720 Speaker 1: these new provisions in the tax code for the federal 16 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: tax code, but your state tax code does not have 17 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: to line up with whatever the federal tax code is 18 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: now generally in states that are run by the same 19 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: party that the federal government is run by. So if 20 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 1: it's Democrats with Democrats, Republicans and Republicans, generally they try 21 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: to match those up one to support the president. They 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,199 Speaker 1: don't want the public thinking, well, if my state didn't 23 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,120 Speaker 1: do it, it must not be all that great, or 24 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,959 Speaker 1: you know, the state doesn't want the federal government looking 25 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: like the good guys, et cetera, so they try to 26 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,360 Speaker 1: match them up. But in the case of this legalized 27 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 1: vote buying operation that they enacted last year in Washington, 28 00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: d C. It's so massive and unpaid for, and of 29 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: course they just turn on the printing press. The state 30 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 1: of Indiana has looked at a lot of these things 31 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: and said, wait a second, we can't afford it, right, 32 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: we can't turn on the printing press, and we already 33 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,400 Speaker 1: raised taxes by a billion dollars. Chris, they haven't you notice, 34 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 1: they conveniently don't mention that publicly when they brondn't mentioned that. 35 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: Last night he talked about all the things they did, 36 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: he didn't mention out the billion dollars that he raised 37 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: taxes on. And so the state of Indiana, which is 38 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 1: a rare, rare move where a state that is run 39 00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: by the same party that controls Washington d C peers 40 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 1: set to not enact many of the legalized vote buying 41 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: operations tax laws into their own tax code yees. 42 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:12,239 Speaker 2: So the lawmakers they haven't decided on whether to adopt 43 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 2: the tax deductions for overtime wages, and also the tax 44 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 2: deduction for tips, the no tax on tips element. 45 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: So basically what this means is when you would file 46 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: a tax return and it already is this way, it's 47 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: just going to be more hectic and harder to understand, 48 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 1: and it's going to make these accounts a lot of 49 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: money because you'll have to hire somebody to do this 50 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,639 Speaker 1: for many people. Is you will get, like, if let's 51 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,120 Speaker 1: say they don't enact the no tax on tips thing, 52 00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: you will be able to not pay federal income tax 53 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: on those tips, but on your state income tax you 54 00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 1: will still pay that. So you would get the federal benefit, 55 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,800 Speaker 1: you would just not get the state benefit. And look, 56 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:57,200 Speaker 1: that makes sense from a from a state perspective. Just 57 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 1: because Trump wants to do something, we've already budget around things, 58 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: we've already planned things. We're not under any obligation. It's 59 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: just kind of newsworthy because they're the same party and 60 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: they're they're not aligned. But it shows you, it shows 61 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: you how massive and irresponsible that bill actually was. 62 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 2: Well, it shows you what Republicans in Indiana have already 63 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 2: determined they want to spend money on. They want to 64 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,480 Speaker 2: spend your money on. The broad administration says that if 65 00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,800 Speaker 2: they can form fully to the one big beautiful bill, 66 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 2: it could cost Indiana over nine hundred million dollars in 67 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,559 Speaker 2: two years. 68 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 1: And one of the this is one of the major 69 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 1: problems with our government and the policies they put forward. 70 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: They write laws to appease certain groups of people they 71 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 1: want to vote for them. We should have a tax 72 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: policy that benefits everyone. Like we just did a segment 73 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 1: on the Bears, what are we talking about them? We're 74 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:54,240 Speaker 1: going to do all these special things for the Bears 75 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: that regular people can't get. Where the theory would be 76 00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 1: if you had a tax policy that benefited all people, 77 00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:04,080 Speaker 1: people would want to come here and be here because 78 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: the climate is good for everyone. The problem is we 79 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: write so many laws based on who gives money to 80 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: the politicians, who donates, the powerful lobbyists, the relationships those 81 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:17,760 Speaker 1: lobbyists have, and you start carving out these special deals 82 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 1: for select groups. There's no way that all fifty states 83 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: could keep par or keep pace with what the federal 84 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: government's doing because they can't print money to make up 85 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: when they're not taking in as much money as they're spending. 86 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 2: So they're saying that there's this Senate Bill two twelve 87 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 2: and that bill could adopt some, but not all, of 88 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 2: the federal tax changes. And that's something they're going to 89 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: meet next Thursday and determine. 90 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,039 Speaker 1: All right, let's get an update on Timothy Busfield Busfield Boostfield. 91 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's going on with him? He was arraigned or 92 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 2: he appeared in court. I know I saw videos of 93 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 2: him in an orange jumpsuit. 94 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: Okay, so a reminder we. 95 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 2: Retained without bond, yes, what it was? 96 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: So he Timothy bust Heel boose Field is a fairly 97 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 1: well known actor.

He's 102 00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,120 Speaker 1: the probably best known the obnoxious brother in law who's 103 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 1: trying to take the farm and Field of Dreams. 104 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 2: I think that we can put him in the uh 105 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:29,359 Speaker 2: in the class with Grandpa Joe from Willy Wonka and 106 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 2: Jenny from Forrest Gump and Rose from Titanic. 107 00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:37,160 Speaker 1: Just a bad character, the Mark Mark the brother Dreams right, Yeah. 108 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 2: I mean he's the one who who pushed little Karen 109 00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: off the bleacher making her choke on the hot dog right, 110 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 2: completely ending the field of dreams for Moonlight Graham. 111 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,320 Speaker 1: That's correct, Yes, and that's very I'm so impressed you 112 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: knew that. That's very very good. I mean, you thought 113 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: the Eagles were the Jets this past weekend, So I'm 114 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: very pressed you knew who Moonlight Graham was. 115 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,480 Speaker 2: Uh Timothy Boosefield Busfield. 116 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, so, so he is kind of now more in 117 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 1: the behind the scenes role, director, producer type of person. 118 00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: And a couple of years ago he was involved in 119 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: a television show. I can't remember exactly what the name 120 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 1: of the show was, but there were these young boys 121 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 1: that were on the scene the cleaning lady, thank you, 122 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: and he was accused of inappropriately touching them. Now, initially 123 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: this case was reported, it was no nothing was pursued 124 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: by the police. They looked at it and they couldn't 125 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: find evidence of wrongdoing and so they said, you know, 126 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: we're done here now. Since then, allegedly new evidence, something 127 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,280 Speaker 1: new has been presented. 128 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:39,599 Speaker 2: Separate allegation came forward from a different individual. 129 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: And whatever that was then retriggered what they had looked 130 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 1: at before and said, okay, now there's enough to get 131 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 1: a warrant to apprehend this guy. Now, a lot of 132 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: people are saying that these kids were dismissed from the show, 133 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:55,720 Speaker 1: and this is some sort of retaliation from the mother 134 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 1: being mad about the kids getting dismissed from the show. Well, 135 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 1: they issued this warrant to get Boosefield. Nobody knows where 136 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:07,039 Speaker 1: he's at, and he's disappeared and the marshals are getting involved, 137 00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden, after three days, he 138 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: randomly pops up. I think it was TMZ had the video, 139 00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: and I don't know if he did it for them 140 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 1: or it just ended up with them first or whatever. 141 00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: But he's like, Hey, I don't understand what the big 142 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,440 Speaker 1: deal was. I'm here in New Mexico. I had to 143 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 1: drive from Los Angeles to turn myself in. It was 144 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: two thousand miles. I had to get an attorney. Wasn't 145 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: running from anybody. I'm here, and people are going, wait 146 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 1: a second, if that was your plan. Normally, when you're 147 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 1: gonna turn yourself in, your attorney will call the local prosecutor. Hey, 148 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: the guy lives X amount of miles away. It's going 149 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 1: to take him three days to get there. He'll arrange 150 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: to turn himself in on such a day. Okay, cool, 151 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: but it sounded like none of that had happened because 152 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: they were alleging they didn't know where he was at 153 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: and that's why they got the Marshalls involved. So that's weird. 154 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 1: It's weird that the police initially let this thing go 155 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: and then they come back and say there's enough. That's weird. 156 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 1: And now he has turned himself in. He was in 157 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: court yesterday and he is going to be held for 158 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: now without bond. His attorney appeared. He was there in person, 159 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: The attorney appeared via some sort of virtual zoom or 160 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:09,600 Speaker 1: whatever it was, and it sounds like in five business 161 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: days he's going to have some sort of hearing to 162 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: determine if he gets out on bonding. 163 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 2: The judge ordered that there'd be a hearing within five days. 164 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: He did not enter a plea while he was there. 165 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:20,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think that's all pretty standard. I don't 166 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 1: think there's anything to read into any of that. The 167 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: big thing is going to be because the state has 168 00:08:25,240 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: essentially requested that he not be able at least for 169 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 1: now to get out in his you know, be released 170 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,400 Speaker 1: and be out into decent society. And so that's going 171 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 1: to be interesting. You may get a little bit of 172 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:39,520 Speaker 1: an idea on what evidence they actually have against him. 173 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: I'm not saying you're gonna get a full details, but 174 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: you may get to hear some of that coming up 175 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 1: in this hearing where they talk about whether he can 176 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: get out on bond or not, because that'll probably play 177 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 1: into whether you know the ponderance of the evidence right, 178 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,320 Speaker 1: or the evidence that's presented, or whether this judge lets 179 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: him go. 180 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: So his wife is Melissa Gilbert, famous actress from Little 181 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 2: House in the Prairie. That's what She was president of 182 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 2: SAG for a long time as well, and her representation 183 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 2: is saying that she's standing by her man. 184 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,440 Speaker 1: Well he was. He issued a forceful denial. Of course, 185 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: that means absolutely nothing. See Bill Clinton, right. I mean, 186 00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:17,959 Speaker 1: but some of this stuff on both sides just doesn't 187 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: make sense to me. I think everybody should keep an 188 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,800 Speaker 1: open mind on it, see what the evidence is, because 189 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: both sides of this coin do not seem to be 190 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: adding up, and there seems to be something very off 191 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: about this. 192 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,560 Speaker 2: Well, there were allegations of this going back a few years. 193 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 2: I believe it was twenty twenty two and Warner Brothers 194 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:38,280 Speaker 2: hired an independent investigator to determine whether there was something 195 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 2: there or not, and they found no, nothing was there. 196 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:45,600 Speaker 1: Well, this suit relates to like he tried to say 197 00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: that he what he he tickled these kids on the 198 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: set or something. And look, everybody responds differently. But if 199 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: there had been an allegation against you that you had 200 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: inappropriately touched a child, wouldn't you just refrain from touching 201 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: or being around all like? Wouldn't you keep a fifty 202 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: foot distance at all time? Hey, somebody tried to get 203 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: me on this before I gotta you know, got out 204 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,359 Speaker 1: of it. I'm just not even gonna get into the anybody. 205 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: Clearly above reproach. Well, the investigator that Warner Brothers hired 206 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 2: said that he was never alone with the boys on 207 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:17,840 Speaker 2: the set, so nothing could have there was never an 208 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 2: opportunity for anything inappropriate. 209 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 1: Well we'll see, right, I mean, the police co they 210 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 1: have something that they felt was warranted him being charged. 211 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: But you know, things get dismissed all the time. See 212 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,800 Speaker 1: Duke Lacrosse. You get rogue prosecutors who knows what's going 213 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: on here. It'll be fascinating to see what comes out
