1 00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:04,600 Speaker 1: Hammer and Nigel. Do you believe these characters are weirdos? 2 00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 2: So that, oh my goodness, Hammer, we had some state 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,680 Speaker 2: House updates that have nothing to do with the redistricting. 4 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:17,759 Speaker 2: What get out of here talking about it for weeks. Now, 5 00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,200 Speaker 2: tell me what the Beckwith bill is. 6 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 1: So it's not really called the Beckwith bill, but it 7 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: kind of is right. So think of it this way. 8 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,319 Speaker 1: In the NFL, the tuck rule it's also known as 9 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,360 Speaker 1: the Tom Brady rule, and that controversial call in the 10 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:40,160 Speaker 1: football game in the snow good analogy. So this new 11 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: bill filed at the Indiana State House and the House 12 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: of Representatives would change the selection process for the way 13 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:52,599 Speaker 1: the state picks its lieutenant governor. Instead of having it 14 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:56,279 Speaker 1: go to the delegates who then get together at convention 15 00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: and do their process and pick the lieutenant governor, it 16 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 1: would basically just be the governor going, here's my person. Ah. 17 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,360 Speaker 2: So the person coming up with this bill doesn't like 18 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: Mica beck With. 19 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: Indiana State Rep. Danny Lopez is the man that is 20 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 1: behind this. He's a Republican from Carmel. I do not 21 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 1: know if he's got a good relationship with Micah beck 22 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:20,319 Speaker 1: With or not. Just speculating maybe he's being pressured to 23 00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: put this out there from folks who do not have 24 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 1: a good relationship with the Lieutenant governor. But let's not 25 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,120 Speaker 1: get it twisted. This is the Micah Beckwith Bill is 26 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: Rob Kendall. 27 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 2: Hev Jamy Lopez's personal prideate cell phone number. 28 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 1: And again go back to the previous election year here 29 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: in Indiana, Governor Braun wanted somebody else. Governor Braun did 30 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 1: not want Micah beck With, but beck With he was 31 00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: a barn storming malet me just city in a city 32 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:58,120 Speaker 1: radio station's TV Killer Ground Game, Great Ground Game overcame 33 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,520 Speaker 1: a lot of odds, and some of them went south. 34 00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 2: I know there's you know, personal relationships were broken even 35 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 2: within this building. 36 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: I don't recall that the Rob Kendall rule. 37 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 2: There's several different nicknames for a situation surroundings. 38 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: I don't. 39 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 2: I don't have the animosity that a lot of people 40 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 2: do towards him, And I can understand why there's some 41 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 2: people that want to see It's like this is the 42 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 2: way it's been forever, and now all of a sudden, 43 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 2: they're changing their rules because Micah because of this this 44 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,640 Speaker 2: sort of thing, right because Mike is a rabble rouser. 45 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,000 Speaker 1: He's a bull and a china shop. Yeah, and some 46 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 1: would say he's full of bull something else. So that's 47 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: why it kind of scares a lot of the old 48 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: school Republican guard here in the state of Indiana. Whatever. 49 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: That's House Bill ten twenty two, we're calling it the 50 00:02:54,600 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: Beckwith Bill. Also Representative Andrew Ireland, he's pushing forward with 51 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: legislation that would allow judges and prosecutors to be impeached. 52 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: So if there's a judge or prosecutor that's kind of 53 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 1: gone rogue and you keep letting out violent repeat offenders, 54 00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: one right after the other. Oh, I don't know. Here's 55 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: a hypothetical situation, nuge. Let's say you live in a 56 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:28,360 Speaker 1: county where, again hypothetical, your prosecutor acts more like a 57 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,519 Speaker 1: defense attorney, and there's a guy that's been arrested ninety 58 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: nine times. Yeah, this piece of legislation, if it makes 59 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 1: its way through, would give the area in question, the 60 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 1: ability to impeach said prosecutor. 61 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 3: Or. 62 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 2: Just it's really to get rid of those guys. It's 63 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 2: just it's like it's more of a retaining process, like 64 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 2: we vote to retain this judge, right, that's how it 65 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 2: kind of works. You can't exactly vote them out. We 66 00:03:58,840 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: vote to retain. 67 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 4: Well. 68 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:02,240 Speaker 1: By the way, is it Andrew Ireland? 69 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 3: Was it? 70 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 1: He the guy that. 71 00:04:04,480 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 2: Went to the property tax rally and Rod Bray was 72 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 2: the Senate leader. He got mad at Andrew Ireland for 73 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: wearing a green tie. His name's Ireland. It was on St. 74 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,360 Speaker 2: Patrick's day. 75 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: That's a guy, right, because we were encouraging people to 76 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: wear green to a property tax rally because it was 77 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: about money. Yeah, it was earlier, yeah, and it happened 78 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: to be on St. Patrick's day. And Senate pro Tim 79 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 1: Rod Bray got all butt hurt because the guy whose 80 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,520 Speaker 1: last name is Ireland love the story, was wearing green 81 00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: on Saint Patrick's day, taking the attention away from his birthday. 82 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: The Mariachi band. 83 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's good stuff right there. 84 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: That's who we're dealing with. And also from the Indiana 85 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 1: State House, Senator Mike Young, friend of the show, he 86 00:04:55,880 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: plans to roll out a bill that would change up 87 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: the execution process here in the state of Indiana. Really 88 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 1: if the lethal injection cocktail drugs are unavailable, or if 89 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: you just want to save some money. According to the 90 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: New bill coming forth from Senator Mike Young, firing squad 91 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: could become an option here in Indiana. When reach for comment, 92 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: Jason Hammer said this, I'm. 93 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: Here for this baby. Who's telling me somebody from the newsroom, 94 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 2: I think it was Ryan Hendrick was telling me that 95 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 2: some of these cocktails they used to inject these guys 96 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 2: and put them to death or hundreds of thousands of dollars. 97 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: It's expensive these tens of thousands of dollars, if not 98 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 2: a six figure sum A firing squad. Yeah, it's getting 99 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: a bunch of good old boys together and pull a trigger. 100 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,280 Speaker 1: I can go out to thirty eighth Street right now 101 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: and probably find somebody it's got some practice to uh 102 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: work off some community service. I'm here for it, man, 103 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:08,359 Speaker 1: I am here for that. We will be talking about 104 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: the changing of the congressional maps. We'll get to all 105 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,159 Speaker 1: of that, but I just want to get you guys 106 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,599 Speaker 1: up to date on some other things happening here in 107 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: the state of Indiana. One more note here before we 108 00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 1: move forward. I found this out yesterday. So remember when 109 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 1: Donald Trump passed the big, beautiful bill, right that was 110 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 1: his signature piece of legislation. It's big and it's a bill. 111 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: It's a bill. There was a thing in there, a 112 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: little caveat that said no tax on overtime, no tax 113 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: on tips. Well, I think a lot of people feel 114 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,119 Speaker 1: like because the big beautiful bill was ultimately passed, that's 115 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 1: automatically in place. That's not. According to the folks that 116 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: I spoke with yesterday at the Indiana State House, this 117 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,559 Speaker 1: has to be a state issue. So the Indiana General 118 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 1: Assembly has to move forward with making this a thing. 119 00:07:01,200 --> 00:07:04,159 Speaker 1: So if you worked a crap ton of overtime, or 120 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 1: you are scheduled to work a crap ton of overtime 121 00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 1: coming up, you're not getting any extra perk out of that. 122 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,680 Speaker 1: You're still paying the taxes on it. Until the Indiana 123 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: State House pushes that through as an official bill. What 124 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: are they waiting for? Great question? 125 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,800 Speaker 2: I'm all for it. I know Rob Kendall didn't like it. 126 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: Rob Kendle doesn't like anything it, doesn't like Christmas, doesn't 127 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: like his family, doesn't like himself, doesn't like us. 128 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: But hey man, I'm all for the waiters and waitresses, 129 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: the servers to. 130 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 1: You know, what do they want to do? 131 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 2: No tax at all, no tax overtime and tips overtime. 132 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:47,280 Speaker 1: Love it. 133 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: Sorry, I love it, man, I mean, get you some. 134 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,559 Speaker 1: But you got to find a representative now that's willing 135 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 1: to put that out there and get the votes to 136 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:55,800 Speaker 1: get that moving. 137 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 5: Now. 138 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people will be surprised to 139 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 1: know that it's not, you know, a law already. But 140 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 1: just because Trump has got the big beautiful bill passed 141 00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: through at the national level, interesting has to go through 142 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 1: the state level before it becomes something Hoosiers can enjoy. 143 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:16,000 Speaker 1: Speaking of things Hoosiers can enjoy, nige our charity bowling event, 144 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: Red White and Bowl presented by Jack Daniels.

They were 154 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,720 Speaker 2: they take it seriously, yes, and they weren't. They weren't 155 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 2: able to get in last year because they waited too long, 156 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 2: and Chris Hammer and some college bowlers from the Undy 157 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 2: College Bowling team came in and beat people. 158 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 1: So again it's a good mix. 159 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 6: Man. 160 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: There's like competitive areas where you can bowl to win 161 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: and then you can just do drunken, debaucherous stuff with 162 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 1: Nigel and High.

You're listening to the Hammer 278 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 1: and Nigel Show. 279 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: They're really still trying to overturn Richard Allen's one hundred 280 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 2: and thirty year murder conviction. This thing is still dragging 281 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 2: on his attorney's asking for another extension. We all know 282 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 2: who Richard Allen is. Found them guilty of murdering Abbey 283 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 2: and Libby near the Moan on high Bridge in Delphi 284 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 2: several years ago. 285 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:14,120 Speaker 1: Very high profile story, national attention. Some would say it's 286 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: the most high profile murders that have happened, maybe in 287 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: the history of the state of Indiana. And despite him 288 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 1: being found guilty on four counts of murder, his attorneys 289 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: continue to push for a new trial because they're still 290 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: upset that the defense they wanted to use in the trial, 291 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 1: the odinism and the death cult, is right, the judge 292 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: did not allow them to use that in court. So 293 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 1: if you're going to offer a proper defense and you 294 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 1: feel like, hey, I know you guys said we can't 295 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 1: do this, but we really believe this wasn't Richard Allen, 296 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 1: it was some sort of cult. I understand where the 297 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 1: attorneys are coming from. 298 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 2: I think I may I think I may agree with 299 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:04,640 Speaker 2: you on that one provided defense correct lay it out, 300 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 2: but they weren't able to even introduce that. So somebody 301 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 2: tell me on the chat or at Hammer and Nigel 302 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: on social media how his attorneys are getting paid. I 303 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 2: feel like somebody explained that to us once. But there's 304 00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 2: no way he was working at the CBS, for God's sake, 305 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 2: right they arrested him. 306 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: Certainly not a wealthy man. 307 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 2: How are they getting paid. I mean, I'm sure they 308 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 2: have other clients as pro bono is I always hear 309 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 2: pro bono in the movies, like in legal movies. 310 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: I mean, would it be the worst thing in the 311 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 1: world if it were pro bono, because think of all 312 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,400 Speaker 1: the exposure that these attorneys was it Rossie and Baldwin. 313 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, a good point, sure, But the client got 314 00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 2: found guilty and they weren't able to introduce the evidence 315 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 2: they wanted. The trial itself, there was a lot of leaks. Yeah, 316 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 2: well maybe not a lot, but for God's sake, they'd 317 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 2: leaked the murder scene. They didn't, but the murder scene 318 00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 2: photos were leaked out of their office. 319 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: Correct, journalists podcasters got gruesome crime scene pictures of Abby 320 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 1: and Libby. But the trial itself, and again, of all 321 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:26,720 Speaker 1: the goofy things we have done on this program for 322 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:29,720 Speaker 1: eight years, the people that bring you such segments as 323 00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: how have you injured your crotch? And elude news dude 324 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 1: in the news when we were having the del Phi 325 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,240 Speaker 1: recaps every single day where we had our newsroom folks 326 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: in here, Guy Relford was here every single day taking 327 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,680 Speaker 1: the side of like what a defense attorney would say, 328 00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: almost having mock trials, mock closing arguments. I thought that 329 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: was fascinating. But I've spoken with a lot of law 330 00:18:53,920 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 1: enforcement and it sounds like the information we were getting from 331 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 1: outside the court wasn't exactly what was happening on the 332 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: inside of the court. 333 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, a different tone in tenor in terms of attitude, 334 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 2: but just a general feeling between the jurors and Richard 335 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 2: Allen and looks and certain you know, just stuff you 336 00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 2: can't really even write describe. 337 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:31,760 Speaker 1: Folks that were inside the courtroom said, yeah, we all 338 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 1: thought he was going to be found guilty. But because 339 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: we had to rely on a pool of reporters from 340 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 1: various stations, and we were getting updates that way because 341 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,719 Speaker 1: the judge all of a sudden decided she didn't want 342 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: to have cameras in the courtroom. We were under the 343 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: impression that, hell, this thing could go either way, and 344 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,440 Speaker 1: there's a lot of doubt and there are clouds over 345 00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: this thing. Reasonable doubt the two words that we were 346 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: looking for. That's what I took from the pool reporting 347 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,440 Speaker 1: none according to the jury, no shred of doubt according 348 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,880 Speaker 1: to the jury, or else he'd be free right now. 349 00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 1: Some more legal stuff here. The FBI has made in 350 00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,600 Speaker 1: arrests on the January sixth pipe bomb. Five years later, 351 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: died about time they finally made an arrest. This was 352 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,160 Speaker 1: the guy accused of planting pipe bombs near the capitol 353 00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:28,159 Speaker 1: the day before January sixth, twenty twenty one, and he 354 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 1: has been arrested in Virginia. Feds are going through his house. 355 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 1: Seems like he's a pro anarchy guy the pipe bombs. 356 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: If you remember, we're near the Republican Democratic National Committee 357 00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 1: headquarters and there were multiple pipe bombs out there. And 358 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: with all of the investigation and all of the money 359 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: spent into January sixth, locking up grandmalls and going after 360 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: the guy with the Viking helmet, you would have thought maybe, 361 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:01,920 Speaker 1: just maybe we would have found the guy doing pipe 362 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: bombs a little sooner. 363 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,760 Speaker 2: It turns out it's a little easier to to uh, 364 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 2: put a put a grandma from Greenfield in jail for 365 00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 2: parading than it is to find the guy with the 366 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 2: pipe bombs. 367 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: Right. 368 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 2: I didn't get that exactly right, But you no knowing me. 369 00:21:20,040 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: Oh, I know you're risking people. 370 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 2: There was some there was people from Indiana there that 371 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:27,680 Speaker 2: were charged with parading. 372 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: If you farted near the Capitol on January sixth. Biden 373 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: administration wanted to put you in guantanamo and throw away 374 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: the key. But yet somebody's out here doing pipe bombs 375 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:42,400 Speaker 1: and they've got him on video. It's not like this 376 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,280 Speaker 1: is hearsay. We've seen the grainy video of the suspect 377 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 1: finally brought to justice here. 378 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:54,199 Speaker 2: I don't think we know much more than what we've relayed. 379 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 2: I don't have a name. 380 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 1: Fox broke the name earlier. I'm not going to say 381 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 1: the guy's name because that's probably what he wants. Fox 382 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 1: has the name. 383 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:06,119 Speaker 2: But but I just want my point in saying that 384 00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: is like, I want to know more about this guy 385 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 2: and who he was and what his background is. 386 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: Can we also do that with the Trump assassin? Can 387 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: we take that same philosophy and apply it to the 388 00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: Trump attempt at assassination attempt. 389 00:22:21,240 --> 00:22:25,160 Speaker 2: Vegas, Vegas shooting, Vegas shooting a lot of them. 390 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 1: All Right, Nige, I'm going to defer to you on 391 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: this one here. Were you a big Scott Wiland guy. 392 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: You're the rock person on the show. Yeah, absolutely, no question. 393 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 2: I mean, uh core The Stone Tuple Pilots first album 394 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: came out around the time I was coming up in 395 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 2: Rock Radio, one of my favorite rock albums of all time, 396 00:22:46,160 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 2: and Scott Wiland is the lead singer of Stone Tuple Pilots. 397 00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 2: And not only it's funny, it's I saw this on 398 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 2: social media the other day. Scott Wiland not only an 399 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 2: incredible performer on stage, just a president it's like no other. 400 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 2: But he had a presence when he was being interviewed 401 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,399 Speaker 2: by late night talk show hosts. I saw a great 402 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,119 Speaker 2: interview he did. I think it was with Conan or 403 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 2: somebody like that that he I mean, he held his own. 404 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:16,400 Speaker 1: Usually these rock stars they give me one or the other. 405 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: They could go out and perform and just be a 406 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 2: total dud when you go into the late night talk 407 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 2: show circuit. But he was a very charming guy. I'm 408 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 2: very fortunate to have seen him when he played with 409 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 2: Velvet Revolver Slash Duff McKagan for Guns and Roses. 410 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 1: He was kind of a diverse dude like I've seen 411 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: him on late night talk shows like you bring up 412 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,280 Speaker 1: doing Christmas songs like as a crooner. Yes, it wasn't 413 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: just the grun stuff exactly, but. 414 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 2: Very personable and so I'm for I never got to 415 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 2: see Stone tuple pilots, but I am very fortunate to 416 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 2: have seen him live with Velvet Revolver at Stubbs in Austin. 417 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 1: Yesterday was the ten year and a verse ursary of 418 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:05,159 Speaker 1: his death. Ten years and a drug od and you 419 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:08,840 Speaker 1: know how I feel about these things. A previously unreleased 420 00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:14,040 Speaker 1: solo track from Scott Wiland was posted on social media 421 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,720 Speaker 1: to remember him on the ten year anniversary of his death. Boy, 422 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 1: it's called if I Could Fly. Here's a little part. 423 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 2: Those they do. 424 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 1: Anything of the chorus is okay. I guess. 425 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,919 Speaker 2: The song would have been out twenty years if it 426 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 2: was worth a damn though, correct if they released these 427 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,679 Speaker 2: songs because they weren't good enough to. 428 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,000 Speaker 1: Put on an al That's what I always said, making 429 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:06,200 Speaker 1: the album, whether it's Tupac, whether it's Prince, whether it's 430 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 1: Michael Jackson, they always put out stuff they found in 431 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: the vault. Well, the reason why it was in the 432 00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: vault the artist didn't think that it was any good. 433 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:17,840 Speaker 1: He would have made money on it and released it 434 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: had he thought it was any good. And I feel 435 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,600 Speaker 1: like kind of a bastard here because we know we're 436 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,760 Speaker 1: kind of talking about the ten year mark. Of his 437 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 1: death going that song sucks, no, but it's the truth. 438 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 2: I think they just did this as a tribute almost okay, 439 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:34,439 Speaker 2: which is fine. 440 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:36,679 Speaker 1: So we got one minute left here, and I'm going 441 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: to defer to you, mister alternative rock music, mister rock DJ. 442 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: Give me the Mountain. We're well aware, and I tried 443 00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: not to mention that, just like I tried not to 444 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: mention the terrorist that got arrested. Give me the mount 445 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:53,880 Speaker 1: rushmore of grunge. 446 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:58,000 Speaker 2: Bands, well, I mean, I think Nirvana is on top, 447 00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 2: but that whole era of Nirvana and Alison Chains and 448 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,359 Speaker 2: Stone Temple pilots, and. 449 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: I need four Pearl Jam one through four. I gotta 450 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: rank them, oh Man, Pearl Jam, probably Pearl Jam, Pearl Jam, Havana, Nirvana, 451 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: those are interchangeable. Man, I don't know Alison chains and 452 00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 1: Stone Temple pilots. 453 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 2: Okay, those are mine. Those are mine. No Sound Garden, blessed. 454 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,320 Speaker 2: I wish I forgot about Soundgarden. 455 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:34,840 Speaker 1: X one O three, my ass. That's the hammer in Nigel. 456 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 2: Show about a little good news hammer to start out 457 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:45,080 Speaker 2: this segment right ready, let's do it. New unemployment claims 458 00:26:45,320 --> 00:26:51,679 Speaker 2: were filed by the fewest Americans in over three years. 459 00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: Last week, far fewer than economists had been expecting. Turns 460 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: out when you threatened to take away those snat metis 461 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 2: oh krap, better get off my ass start filling out 462 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 2: some applications. 463 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 1: There's an old quote by former IU coach Bob Knight 464 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:14,679 Speaker 1: that the biggest motivator is the bench. The bench is 465 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: the biggest motivator. But I think when it comes to 466 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:22,520 Speaker 1: the lazy community, the biggest motivator is them fearing that 467 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,879 Speaker 1: they're not going to get their quote free money for 468 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: their bags of Cheetos. So I guess they better go 469 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,840 Speaker 1: out and find work like everybody else. 470 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 2: So I and look, there are people that need it, 471 00:27:34,280 --> 00:27:37,440 Speaker 2: and there are people that absolutely benefit from it. I've 472 00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:43,560 Speaker 2: taken unemployment before, but I didn't. It wasn't like your lifestyle. 473 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 2: It was you didn't choose to just not go find 474 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,040 Speaker 2: a job. It was only a few hundred bucks a week. 475 00:27:49,080 --> 00:27:49,959 Speaker 2: I really didn't get it. 476 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 1: I didn't. 477 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 2: I didn't understand. It was very convoluted and very cumbersome 478 00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:58,879 Speaker 2: when trying to do that through the website. And that 479 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 2: happened in twenty thirteen. Maybe sure, so so I mean. 480 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 1: Everybody goes to a stretch where you get fired or 481 00:28:07,800 --> 00:28:10,119 Speaker 1: you're down on your luck. I get that, but there 482 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: are some people, and let not act like this isn't happening, 483 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:18,080 Speaker 1: that are just fat, lazy pieces of crap that refuse 484 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 1: to go look for a job. I applied. 485 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 2: In twenty thirteen. I applied at Low's in Whitestown and 486 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 2: never got a call back. You and I had been 487 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 2: doing the podcast for a while, right, twenty thirteen, that's 488 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 2: around that time. 489 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 1: We were doing podcast stuff long before it was cool. 490 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,400 Speaker 2: Like you know, so so I it wasn't. 491 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: It wasn't. 492 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 2: It wasn't like I was out there, you know, take advantage, 493 00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: taking advantage of the system. 494 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 1: I was actively I don't care. 495 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 2: I would have worked anywhere right, just to even help 496 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 2: the wife out a little bit. She had a job 497 00:28:56,600 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 2: to we're dual income, but we have kids.

Okay, Oh, I like, if like I was, 670 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:06,840 Speaker 2: I was laundering chicken tenders, you. 671 00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:12,840 Speaker 1: Are like a mafia guy laundering and skimming off the top. 672 00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 1: Did you ever give somebody more chicken tenders than you 673 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 1: were supposed to? Almost? Like, yeah, you're welcome. 674 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,600 Speaker 2: I think I've told this story before. Somebody came through 675 00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,279 Speaker 2: in order to Whopper Junior extra pickles, and I just 676 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:32,080 Speaker 2: took my hand and just loaded it up with pickles 677 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:38,319 Speaker 2: and slammed it on that that Dwopper Junior like like 678 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,600 Speaker 2: it was a joke. Like I think they only would 679 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:44,240 Speaker 2: like four or five. I had a fistful of pickles. 680 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 2: Did they complain? 681 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:48,560 Speaker 1: Nope, they got what they wanted. They just quietly put 682 00:40:48,600 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 1: you on a people to kill list and went on 683 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:54,719 Speaker 1: with their day. Is this anything? A New Zealand TV 684 00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: reporter was wrapping up a shot when a bird flew 685 00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 1: into her face. Oh no, take a listen, Waldrove is 686 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:03,480 Speaker 1: going to be short lived. 687 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, Oh my god, yeah am I Oh? 688 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 2: Somehow I think this bird survived the run in with 689 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 2: the reporter, unlike Randy Johnson several years ago when he 690 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:29,080 Speaker 2: was in the middle of the Major League baseball game. 691 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:29,359 Speaker 6: Right. 692 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 1: I love the fact that Alison had never seen the 693 00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 1: Randy Johnson bird video up until like a couple of 694 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 1: months ago. Like she was looking at us like, what 695 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 1: are you talking about? And we made her watch it. 696 00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 1: Do you remember this? Yeah? And I thought it was 697 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:47,080 Speaker 1: ai at first. It was so funny. I've never seen that. 698 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 1: I mean, that bird disintegrated. It wasn't like the ball 699 00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: hit bird. Oh no, It's like a poof, poof, just 700 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:55,879 Speaker 1: gone feathers up there. It was like a magician had 701 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,720 Speaker 1: just done a trick. That bird was gone. 702 00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,600 Speaker 2: Man, this bird very lucky that that that didn't happen. 703 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 1: It's the Hammer and Nigel Show. Hello. 704 00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 2: My name is Nigel Jason Hammer right over there with 705 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,640 Speaker 2: a very special studio guests. 706 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 1: He's been kind enough to join us every couple of 707 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 1: weeks at least once a month here on The Hammer 708 00:42:14,120 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 1: and Nigel Show. This entire year. 709 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:18,280 Speaker 2: You need to come up with a name for this segment, 710 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:19,800 Speaker 2: like beers with Braun. 711 00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:25,320 Speaker 1: Maybe is that right? Perhaps Governor Mike Braun joins us 712 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 1: in studio, and I know time is limited here, so 713 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:32,879 Speaker 1: let's dive right into it. What are you What are 714 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:36,520 Speaker 1: your staff members hearing about the changing of the congressional 715 00:42:36,560 --> 00:42:39,160 Speaker 1: maps since the last time you joined us in studio. 716 00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:42,640 Speaker 1: The Senate pro Tim rob Bray has done a one 717 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: eighty and now he's bringing the Senate back. A lot 718 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,400 Speaker 1: of people have different theories as to why what are 719 00:42:48,440 --> 00:42:48,880 Speaker 1: you hearing? 720 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 5: So I think his reason is still not known. But 721 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 5: I think the big impetus there was one the House 722 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,000 Speaker 5: that they had the votes and they're coming back and 723 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,640 Speaker 5: they're going to do fair map, and I think at 724 00:43:01,640 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 5: that point he probably knew too. We'll see tomorrow what 725 00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:09,720 Speaker 5: the margin is, but we're expecting a pretty overwhelming vote 726 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:13,439 Speaker 5: there in the House. And they've worked closely together over 727 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:17,160 Speaker 5: the years, and I think that the House and Speaker 728 00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 5: Houston have just been more in touch with our own 729 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:24,720 Speaker 5: Republican voters, conservative voters in this state. And I think 730 00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:28,359 Speaker 5: early on, I think the clock was being worked a 731 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,280 Speaker 5: lot of different methods were being used, but I think 732 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:36,120 Speaker 5: when it came down to Speaker Houston saying we're coming in, 733 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,520 Speaker 5: and that then put a different dynamic into it. And 734 00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:45,680 Speaker 5: then as that has kind of transpired, you've seen it's 735 00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 5: gone through. It was attempted to be amended many times 736 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 5: a day. None of those worked. 737 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 3: It was a. 738 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 5: High percentage of only Democrats, I believe on those amendments. 739 00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,319 Speaker 5: And tomorrow we'll see. And I think then it puts 740 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 5: even more burden on the Senate for the relationship that 741 00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 5: they have down the road between Chambers and I think 742 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 5: once it became public the reasons fart have been fleshed 743 00:44:13,719 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 5: out more. I get text Aliday, Well, I've seen you 744 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 5: on Newsmax on Fox on your show explaining it why 745 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 5: and then the reason why is that they've done it 746 00:44:25,320 --> 00:44:28,359 Speaker 5: and now hypocritically are against it and have done it 747 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,000 Speaker 5: for decades. And if you look at the map nationally, 748 00:44:31,560 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 5: I think somehow they think this has to do with 749 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 5: our own state. This has nothing to do with our states. 750 00:44:36,239 --> 00:44:39,600 Speaker 5: This is a macro This is a macro discussion, an 751 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:44,960 Speaker 5: electoral one. Yes that they do not pull any punches. 752 00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:48,200 Speaker 5: They have gerrymandered it like I've said many times on 753 00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 5: this show to where they can't do it anymore, and 754 00:44:51,120 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 5: the loud, vocal oppositions from Democrats and liberal, moderate independent. 755 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:57,480 Speaker 5: So here we are. 756 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:02,080 Speaker 1: Hearing a lot of local report orders from various different 757 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:05,919 Speaker 1: media outlets saying that if the Senate were voting right 758 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:10,040 Speaker 1: now today, on December fourth, they would not have the votes. 759 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,799 Speaker 1: It would be a no right now. Have you heard 760 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 1: anything like that? Are you talking to people? Are your 761 00:45:16,400 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 1: staff members talking to people? 762 00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 5: I don't think most of the public realized that it 763 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 5: was split evenly as of when they took that adjournment vote, 764 00:45:26,640 --> 00:45:29,760 Speaker 5: it would have been understood, well, it's not even close. 765 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:34,320 Speaker 5: But whenever you have half of your caucus for something 766 00:45:35,000 --> 00:45:38,760 Speaker 5: and half against, it's generally going to be people wanting 767 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,360 Speaker 5: to do it, leadership digging in on not wanting to 768 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,880 Speaker 5: do it, and then when you did it outside of 769 00:45:44,920 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 5: the framework of a public discussion, you could hide behind that. 770 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 5: So I think that there's been more and more pressure 771 00:45:52,120 --> 00:45:57,239 Speaker 5: from outside from within. A large majority of who's your 772 00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:01,120 Speaker 5: Republicans want to do it, and that is clear, and 773 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 5: that's gained as we've discussed it and brought it to 774 00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 5: this culmination. 775 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 2: No guarantee though, if this passes through the Senate, this 776 00:46:09,040 --> 00:46:12,680 Speaker 2: all happens, the redrawing of the maps, there's no guarantee 777 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 2: that those two seats are going to flip, right, I mean, 778 00:46:17,440 --> 00:46:20,360 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like like we're all sitting 779 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 2: here high five in each other and all of a sudden, 780 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 2: you know, but there's still just no guarantee, is. 781 00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 5: There, assuming the Senate does the right thing. Yes, and 782 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 5: you can look the odds up. It's very high percentage 783 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 5: unless you'd really have a candidate that didn't make sense 784 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,000 Speaker 5: and you get a couple of those dandies now and 785 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:47,359 Speaker 5: then and otherwise, I mean, it's really high that it 786 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:50,800 Speaker 5: would do then what it's done in all the blue 787 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:56,280 Speaker 5: states that have almost the same kind of arithmetic. Massachusetts 788 00:46:56,320 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 5: would be the best comparison because we're almost identical and 789 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,880 Speaker 5: they've not had a Republican bust through there in a 790 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:04,759 Speaker 5: long long time. 791 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:08,200 Speaker 1: Governor Mike Brawn with us in studio here on the 792 00:47:08,239 --> 00:47:10,719 Speaker 1: Hammer in Nigel's show. You can watch it live on 793 00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:13,799 Speaker 1: the YouTube camera or just turn your radio up here. 794 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:17,720 Speaker 1: Either way, we appreciate you. How is your relationship today 795 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,239 Speaker 1: with the Senate pro Tem Rod Bray? I feel like 796 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: the last time we spoke it wasn't in a great 797 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: place since then, like we talked about he said, all right, 798 00:47:28,160 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 1: I'm going to bring the Senate back. There are some 799 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:33,520 Speaker 1: people that feel like he's doing that because he knows 800 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 1: he doesn't have the votes and he thinks it will 801 00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,560 Speaker 1: be something embarrassing onto you take me through your relationship. 802 00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:43,800 Speaker 5: I think you're probably reading too deeply into that theory. 803 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 5: I think here, this is no different than what they did, 804 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:52,319 Speaker 5: and I've talked about it before, giving USB one which 805 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 5: we were going to have to negotiate probably away from 806 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 5: that to get Remember it passed with two Senate votes, 807 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 5: so it would been him and leadership that made that 808 00:48:02,160 --> 00:48:05,520 Speaker 5: a difficult navigation. If you remember that took about three months. 809 00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 5: This is almost about the same timeframe here. I'm surprised 810 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,800 Speaker 5: that they haven't taken the queue, because let's say they don't, 811 00:48:14,719 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 5: this is not the end of it. Do you think 812 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:20,400 Speaker 5: the White House is going to just drop the issue 813 00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 5: when they've come in twice with the Vice President twice 814 00:48:25,719 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 5: with phone calls. 815 00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,320 Speaker 1: You guys have gone there, Yes, So. 816 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:33,359 Speaker 5: That doesn't mean it's over like you can get that 817 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,320 Speaker 5: off of your agenda. It just then becomes a different 818 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 5: type of a pursuit, and it's a longer term possibly, 819 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:44,440 Speaker 5: And I don't think it'd be a dead issue even 820 00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 5: in the session when it starts in January. So I 821 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:52,000 Speaker 5: think all of that would make you wonder why they 822 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 5: die on that hill. Now when there have been more 823 00:48:55,800 --> 00:49:00,480 Speaker 5: people for it, you're not losing people that we're far 824 00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:02,799 Speaker 5: it in the first place, and we're gaining momentum, and 825 00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 5: you can see it across a wide spectrum. 826 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:09,320 Speaker 2: One of the positions is I've heard that even Republicans 827 00:49:09,360 --> 00:49:14,080 Speaker 2: say that we don't want Washington, d C. Pushing us around. 828 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:16,520 Speaker 2: Is there an answer to that? 829 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:19,640 Speaker 5: I think that would be from the part of our party. 830 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,839 Speaker 5: It was never really bought into America first, and are 831 00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:28,399 Speaker 5: still hanging on to maybe establishment politics. But look how 832 00:49:28,400 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 5: that worked in sixteen. I mean, there were fifteen candidates 833 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 5: that would have been in that posture, all of them 834 00:49:35,960 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 5: taken out of the political scene. And then you can 835 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:42,719 Speaker 5: see what's happened since then. The first term we got 836 00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:48,120 Speaker 5: a real dose of really what works, Biden nomics and 837 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:52,120 Speaker 5: all of that, and obviously that was such a poor seller. 838 00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,399 Speaker 5: You know, Trump got re elected and now you've got 839 00:49:55,440 --> 00:50:01,200 Speaker 5: some of those old Rhino Republicans that still are living 840 00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 5: in that world. That's not the current world of conservative politics. 841 00:50:05,719 --> 00:50:08,840 Speaker 5: Turning Points coming in tomorrow, and I'm going to be 842 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 5: speaking there the youngest part. 843 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,600 Speaker 1: Tell them they were Hoosiers, not Indiana Ends, though, please, 844 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 1: because they made that mistake already. What's at that turning point? 845 00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:21,959 Speaker 1: USA put out a tweet and they said, hey, Indiana Ends, 846 00:50:22,239 --> 00:50:25,920 Speaker 1: you need to make sure you're contacting your representatives like 847 00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:28,040 Speaker 1: we have the same goal we got. I want nine 848 00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 1: to zero. But you can't cost Indiana. 849 00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:34,799 Speaker 5: We've got We've got probably more chapters per capita of 850 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:41,120 Speaker 5: turning point groups across our state. That's resonating everywhere. And again, 851 00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:46,040 Speaker 5: remember this is a national concern. We're not talking about 852 00:50:46,360 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 5: state and Senate or rep and Senate districts. This is 853 00:50:51,600 --> 00:50:54,680 Speaker 5: part of the electoral college that we play within. 854 00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 1: Health Virginia is trying to change theirs from like six 855 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 1: five to ten to one. 856 00:50:59,520 --> 00:51:02,719 Speaker 5: And the to me, it's a hid to hypocrisy that 857 00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 5: you're complaining about it when you've done it to the 858 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:08,920 Speaker 5: limit and you know you can't go much further. So 859 00:51:09,120 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 5: it's that discussion. 860 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:13,080 Speaker 1: One more thing here before we let you go. We 861 00:51:13,080 --> 00:51:16,240 Speaker 1: were talking a little bit earlier about the unemployment numbers 862 00:51:16,239 --> 00:51:19,600 Speaker 1: that were released. At a national level, unemployment was a 863 00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:23,880 Speaker 1: little lower. People had a smaller number. We're filing for benefits. 864 00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:27,040 Speaker 1: That's a good thing here. How was Indiana doing as 865 00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:29,600 Speaker 1: we're in this holiday season? I know money can get 866 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 1: tight into the year, things can get tight jobs compared 867 00:51:33,560 --> 00:51:35,000 Speaker 1: to wages inflation. 868 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:38,800 Speaker 5: How are we doing so Black Friday you had retail 869 00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:43,000 Speaker 5: sales up nine percent online, four to five percent brick 870 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:46,200 Speaker 5: and mortar. That's about as good as we've had in 871 00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 5: recent times. When you look at a state like ours, 872 00:51:50,000 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 5: where the budget austerity that was based upon tariffs, that's 873 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 5: all been dissipated. So our state government is cash flowing 874 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,640 Speaker 5: much better with real revenues coming in than what the 875 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:06,480 Speaker 5: budget indicated it would. And that's because we're doing things already. 876 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:11,480 Speaker 5: Like when it comes to how we incentivize building our economy, 877 00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:16,640 Speaker 5: we have taken those incentivizing money that we were spending 878 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 5: fifty five thousand dollars per job, yielding a thirty six 879 00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:25,399 Speaker 5: dollars in our wage. We're spending one third as much 880 00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:28,240 Speaker 5: and we bump that pay up to forty one bucks. 881 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 5: Those are just a few of the things. So our 882 00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:35,360 Speaker 5: unemployment rate compared to our peer group Midwestern states is good, 883 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:38,920 Speaker 5: and the fact that we're running state government with a 884 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 5: lot more efficiency, that'll be the dividend of how we 885 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 5: pay for lower taxes down the road. The last twelve years, 886 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 5: I don't think there's been much attention to running our 887 00:52:49,480 --> 00:52:52,279 Speaker 5: own state government like a business would run it. I've 888 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 5: got a crew in there now that is doing it, 889 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:58,160 Speaker 5: and you're going to see increasing benefits from it. And 890 00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 5: our economy here in the state is already in this 891 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 5: short period of time since our crew has been here, 892 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:09,480 Speaker 5: is spending less and getting more and has got a 893 00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 5: strong ecomomy. 894 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 2: You need to get some businesses back in these buildings 895 00:53:12,680 --> 00:53:13,640 Speaker 2: though down. 896 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,120 Speaker 5: Town, and that's going to be a function of what 897 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:19,920 Speaker 5: happens here, because if you don't do better in terms 898 00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 5: of addressing hopelessness crime on the streets, those leases are 899 00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:27,440 Speaker 5: not going to be renewed. And I'm going to have 900 00:53:27,480 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 5: conversations with the mayor on those to see how we 901 00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,720 Speaker 5: may be able to work jointly. It is our state capital, 902 00:53:35,040 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 5: and I've had a lot of people way in and 903 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,680 Speaker 5: we've already had that discussion a time or two. So 904 00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 5: I'm hoping there that they go forward with some plans 905 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 5: that they've got out there that they've talked about, put 906 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 5: some funding behind it, because if we don't, those leases 907 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:53,600 Speaker 5: won't be renewed, Businesses will move outside of the downtown, 908 00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:58,080 Speaker 5: and we'll have to rely on convention business mostly, which 909 00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:59,879 Speaker 5: is not as good as businesses down. 910 00:54:00,560 --> 00:54:02,560 Speaker 1: Last thing, I know I promised last thing like two 911 00:54:02,640 --> 00:54:05,960 Speaker 1: questions ago, but seriously, last thing here on the subject 912 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:08,960 Speaker 1: of budget and taxes. I was speaking to some of 913 00:54:09,000 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 1: your staff members yesterday about this. I think there's a 914 00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 1: lot of Hoosiers that feel like, because the big beautiful 915 00:54:14,719 --> 00:54:17,919 Speaker 1: bill will pass through and Donald Trump got that through 916 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:21,120 Speaker 1: at a national level, everything is in place right now, 917 00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:23,799 Speaker 1: that's not the case because a lot of people who 918 00:54:23,800 --> 00:54:26,560 Speaker 1: have worked over time are wondering are they going to 919 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:29,040 Speaker 1: have to pay taxes on it? Or you know, the 920 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 1: no tax on tips thing that the President wanted in 921 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:36,640 Speaker 1: that big beautiful bill, that's not happening until a budget 922 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,440 Speaker 1: session in Indiana correct it. 923 00:54:39,440 --> 00:54:42,920 Speaker 5: It would happen, then in states would have to choose 924 00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,560 Speaker 5: to do it. They'd make their own calculations that if 925 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,160 Speaker 5: that's going to cut back revenues or is it going 926 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,839 Speaker 5: to stimulate the economy. I'm going to be one that's 927 00:54:50,840 --> 00:54:53,919 Speaker 5: always trying to take taxes down, do things that would 928 00:54:54,000 --> 00:54:58,480 Speaker 5: keep more money in our own hoosiers pockets, and we 929 00:54:58,560 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 5: will be managing our cash flow in away that We're 930 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,520 Speaker 5: going to enhance stuff like we just put out which 931 00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 5: we didn't talk about, that new mothers can bring their 932 00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:12,840 Speaker 5: infants in to work, and we're doing that on a 933 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,839 Speaker 5: trial basis. Earlier this year, I did an executive order 934 00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:21,960 Speaker 5: that extends paid maternity leave up to ten to twelve weeks. 935 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 5: We're going to be pro family. We're going to do 936 00:55:24,600 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 5: it make things easier. Childcare is an issue. High healthcare 937 00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 5: costs are an issue, and we've talked about probably what 938 00:55:31,840 --> 00:55:34,640 Speaker 5: many people are complaining about more than anything would be 939 00:55:34,719 --> 00:55:35,960 Speaker 5: high utility costs. 940 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 1: Stay tuned. 941 00:55:37,440 --> 00:55:40,759 Speaker 5: You're about ready to hear three new appointments to the 942 00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:43,439 Speaker 5: iu r C that are going to be rate payer 943 00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:45,760 Speaker 5: conscious like it's never been done before. 944 00:55:45,800 --> 00:55:48,960 Speaker 1: There, Governor Mike Brown with us. Thank you so much 945 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 1: for your time. If we don't see you before the holiday, 946 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 1: Merry Christmas to you and your family, and we'll talk 947 00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:57,480 Speaker 1: again soon. You bet it's the Hammer and Nigel show. 948 00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,720 Speaker 2: My name is Nigel Chason Hammer over there with special 949 00:56:01,760 --> 00:56:05,080 Speaker 2: guest in studio and a special guest on the hotline. 950 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:09,279 Speaker 1: Governor Mike Braun in studio with us this afternoon and 951 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 1: joining us on the hotline. Senator Jim Banks, Senator, how 952 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:15,319 Speaker 1: are you, my friend? 953 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 11: Well, I would much rather be there in the studio 954 00:56:18,560 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 11: with all of you in Indiana than here in Washington, DC. 955 00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:27,960 Speaker 11: I'm told regularly that Governor Braun, my predecessor, the former Senator, 956 00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:30,480 Speaker 11: is much happier in Indiana than he was in Washington. 957 00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:33,600 Speaker 11: So Z, I take a page from that book, and 958 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:35,400 Speaker 11: I wish I was there with all of you instead 959 00:56:35,400 --> 00:56:35,719 Speaker 11: of here. 960 00:56:36,160 --> 00:56:42,160 Speaker 1: I will second that motion, Senator. Let's get into it here. 961 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 1: For whatever reason, the political left is trying to make 962 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:50,720 Speaker 1: Pete Hegseeth the boogeyman, the Secretary of War, Pete Hesyth, 963 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:55,000 Speaker 1: some sort of boogeyman because he wants to blow up 964 00:56:55,120 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 1: Venezuelan drug dealers. Like, I'm no political strategist, but this 965 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:02,560 Speaker 1: doesn't seem like a smart idea from the political left. 966 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:03,239 Speaker 1: What say you? 967 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 11: Seventy one percent of Americans support striking these drug boats 968 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 11: and stopping narco terrorists from flooding poison into the country 969 00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 11: before it gets here. And I bet there are more 970 00:57:13,040 --> 00:57:15,840 Speaker 11: Hoosiers than that, even more than seventy one percent of 971 00:57:16,520 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 11: Hoosiers who are common sense people who understand that President 972 00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 11: Trump is stopping it from coming here to begin with. 973 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:26,720 Speaker 11: And Secretary of War Heagset, who was just in Fort 974 00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 11: Wayne with us a couple of weeks ago, is executing 975 00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:32,919 Speaker 11: the President's plans to take out these drug boats before 976 00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 11: they get here. So I have no sympathy for these 977 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 11: narco terrorists. I mean a lot of. 978 00:57:40,680 --> 00:57:41,880 Speaker 1: Chatter on Capitol Hill. 979 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:44,680 Speaker 11: Today about these videos from September one or September two, 980 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:46,560 Speaker 11: the drug boat and a couple of the couple of 981 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,680 Speaker 11: terrorists who are hanging from the boat. I say, take 982 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:52,920 Speaker 11: them out, stop them from stop them from poisoning Americans. 983 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 11: President Trump gets that the American people support him, and 984 00:57:57,120 --> 00:57:59,360 Speaker 11: Pete Hegset, who I think is doing a great job, 985 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:03,120 Speaker 11: has done nothing wrong, so I back him one hundred percent. 986 00:58:03,640 --> 00:58:04,240 Speaker 1: I keep on. 987 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:10,160 Speaker 2: Hearing things like words like war crimes Fromkeen Jefferies, the 988 00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:13,040 Speaker 2: you know, the Leader of the House on the Democratic side, 989 00:58:13,080 --> 00:58:16,400 Speaker 2: like we're not at war with these people, We're just saying, 990 00:58:17,480 --> 00:58:19,600 Speaker 2: you know, we're going to take you out if you 991 00:58:19,640 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 2: were trying to import fittanol that's going to kill one 992 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:25,520 Speaker 2: hundred thousand Americans a year. 993 00:58:27,040 --> 00:58:28,880 Speaker 11: Well, we talked about the war on drugs for how 994 00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:31,800 Speaker 11: many forty years? Right, I mean all all of my life, 995 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:34,280 Speaker 11: we have had the war on drugs. And President Trump 996 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,040 Speaker 11: is the first president of my lifetime who's taking that 997 00:58:37,680 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 11: war seriously and taking out these drug votes and telling 998 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,040 Speaker 11: the drug cartels are you are our enemy, and we 999 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:47,280 Speaker 11: will kill you before you kill Americans. So he had 1000 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 11: the President has Article two powers to protect the homeland 1001 00:58:51,360 --> 00:58:54,320 Speaker 11: of the United States of Americas. So he's well within 1002 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 11: his constitutional rights. The authorizations are already there for him 1003 00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 11: to do what he's doing. We've seen for way too long, 1004 00:59:03,000 --> 00:59:05,560 Speaker 11: so many Hoosiers affected by drug overdoses. 1005 00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:06,040 Speaker 3: Uh. 1006 00:59:06,600 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 11: Just the last year the Biden administration a couple couple 1007 00:59:10,840 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 11: thousand or more drug overdoses in Indiana because of these 1008 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,160 Speaker 11: this poison flooding into our country. President Trump is that 1009 00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 11: is the first one who's finally doing something about it. 1010 00:59:20,840 --> 00:59:23,320 Speaker 11: So I can't. I mean, you're you're picking you guys 1011 00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 11: are picking up on something here though. That's that I'm 1012 00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:28,880 Speaker 11: sure Governor Browns he gets back to the land of 1013 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:32,640 Speaker 11: common sense in Indiana. Uh, it doesn't miss this at all. 1014 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,640 Speaker 11: But these Democrats are wacky and crazy. I mean they 1015 00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 11: they they're they're siding with the narco terrorists over over 1016 00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 11: the American people. And that's not you know, you're talking 1017 00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:45,560 Speaker 11: about politics. This is a life and death matter. It's 1018 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 11: not it's not political, but it's talking about the politics 1019 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,120 Speaker 11: of it. The Democrats are on the wrong side of 1020 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:52,600 Speaker 11: this issue, and it's going to come back to haunt 1021 00:59:52,600 --> 00:59:53,440 Speaker 11: them on election. 1022 00:59:53,280 --> 00:59:56,400 Speaker 1: Day and Governor to piggyback off of what Senator Banks 1023 00:59:56,440 --> 00:59:58,960 Speaker 1: is talking about. I bet when you go around the 1024 00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:03,200 Speaker 1: state and you're talk about the drug epidemic that has 1025 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:06,400 Speaker 1: been running rampant over the last ten plus years in 1026 01:00:06,440 --> 01:00:09,840 Speaker 1: this country. When so many families who have lost a 1027 01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 1: loved one to a fentanyl overdose see the Department of 1028 01:00:15,040 --> 01:00:20,200 Speaker 1: War trying to proactively eliminate people bringing this poison to 1029 01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:24,600 Speaker 1: their country. I feel like they are excited for this. 1030 01:00:24,720 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 1: They're finally being heard by the government. Does that make sense? 1031 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,880 Speaker 5: They finally have a voice at the highest place in 1032 01:00:29,920 --> 01:00:32,920 Speaker 5: the country that's doing something about it. As Jim said, 1033 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:38,040 Speaker 5: seventy one percent in Indiana. That's that classic eighty twenty 1034 01:00:38,480 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 5: and the other side of the aisle seems to always 1035 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 5: be picking that twenty percent where this should be something 1036 01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:48,760 Speaker 5: that we don't equivocate at all about. And when you're 1037 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 5: talking about one hundred thousand lives each year at stake, 1038 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,320 Speaker 5: take the percentage of Hoosiers that are involved in that too. 1039 01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,800 Speaker 1: Speaking with some of their Jim Banks here on the 1040 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 1: hand in Nigel Show, Governor Mike Brawn also in studio 1041 01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:06,960 Speaker 1: with US Senator Let's pivot to the vetting process for 1042 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:11,880 Speaker 1: some of these refugees, the Afghan vetting process. This is 1043 01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 1: on the heels of the DC shooting. Now, if you 1044 01:01:14,680 --> 01:01:16,600 Speaker 1: go back a couple of years, you'll remember there was 1045 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 1: a little controversy at Camp Adterbury here in Indy about 1046 01:01:21,880 --> 01:01:25,640 Speaker 1: who was coming in Afghan refugees. I fought with a 1047 01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:28,880 Speaker 1: local TV station about this. I'm curious as to your 1048 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 1: perspective on what's happening a couple of years removed and 1049 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:33,880 Speaker 1: what's happening at a national level. 1050 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 11: Well, this is one of those cases where we predicted this. 1051 01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:43,680 Speaker 11: I served in Afghanistan back in August of twenty twenty one, 1052 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:48,600 Speaker 11: when Biden and General Milly and Lloyd Austin, all these 1053 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:51,800 Speaker 11: jokers in that administration that botched the withdrawal and all 1054 01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 11: of that happened. And then all those planeloads of Afghan 1055 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:59,000 Speaker 11: nationals they brought to the United States who were largely unvetted. 1056 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 11: We knew it that want to take one hundred and 1057 01:02:00,760 --> 01:02:02,920 Speaker 11: ninety thousand of them, most of them were largely unvetted. 1058 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 11: We knew at that point that they were bringing terrorists 1059 01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:08,400 Speaker 11: to the United States of America. And then the last 1060 01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:11,520 Speaker 11: week you've had three incidents, the first one of course 1061 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:16,600 Speaker 11: being very sad, and the terrorist attack in Washington, DC. 1062 01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:19,040 Speaker 11: And then you've had two more of these Afghan nationals 1063 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:21,800 Speaker 11: who were brought in under Biden who have been arrested. 1064 01:02:22,560 --> 01:02:26,600 Speaker 11: This is a real problem, and what we know is 1065 01:02:26,640 --> 01:02:28,840 Speaker 11: probably going to be true is that as the President 1066 01:02:28,960 --> 01:02:33,240 Speaker 11: and the administration turned their sites to fully vetting all 1067 01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:34,800 Speaker 11: of those who came here, they're going to find a 1068 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 11: lot more ties to terrorists. This last one that was 1069 01:02:37,840 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 11: arrested had ties to isis K, which is the worst 1070 01:02:41,720 --> 01:02:45,640 Speaker 11: of the worst of terrorism. Let me say this, I 1071 01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:47,560 Speaker 11: brag about this all the time, and I want to 1072 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:51,760 Speaker 11: thank Governor Braun on this program. Governor Braun was one 1073 01:02:51,800 --> 01:02:53,840 Speaker 11: of the first governors in the country, might have been 1074 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:54,680 Speaker 11: the very first one. 1075 01:02:54,720 --> 01:02:55,960 Speaker 1: And one of the very first. 1076 01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:58,040 Speaker 11: Things that he did when he went into the governor's 1077 01:02:58,040 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 11: office was to sign an executive order that instructed the 1078 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,920 Speaker 11: state police and the State of Indiana to support President 1079 01:03:03,960 --> 01:03:08,000 Speaker 11: Trump and the Trump administration and the mass deportation efforts 1080 01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 11: to get the illegal criminals off of our streets. That's 1081 01:03:11,640 --> 01:03:15,000 Speaker 11: different than the unvetted Afghan nationals, but that shows you 1082 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:17,520 Speaker 11: that we have a governor and our state who's serious 1083 01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:21,680 Speaker 11: about law and order, that's serious about the illegal immigration crisis, 1084 01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:24,360 Speaker 11: and stands with the Trump administration what they're trying to 1085 01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:27,400 Speaker 11: do on this entire front. Governor, I want to thank 1086 01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:28,880 Speaker 11: you for that type of leadership. 1087 01:03:29,240 --> 01:03:29,840 Speaker 1: Thank you, Jim. 1088 01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:32,600 Speaker 5: And you know, when I decided not to run for 1089 01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:35,720 Speaker 5: a second term for Senate, I remember the conversation you 1090 01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 5: and I had, and I always felt you were going 1091 01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:41,880 Speaker 5: to fill that spot up. 1092 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:43,920 Speaker 1: And you've been true blue to that. 1093 01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:47,080 Speaker 5: You've been there back in the president and for me 1094 01:03:47,280 --> 01:03:50,520 Speaker 5: here as a governor where the states are going to 1095 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:54,720 Speaker 5: have to rally behind America First and common sense stuff, 1096 01:03:55,360 --> 01:03:58,280 Speaker 5: it makes me feel really good that we got someone 1097 01:03:58,400 --> 01:04:01,480 Speaker 5: like you that's carrying the tw out there. Keep doing it. 1098 01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:05,600 Speaker 5: On redistricting, you've been a fan of it, as our 1099 01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:12,120 Speaker 5: seven congressional officeholders have. We're working on that. That's another thing. 1100 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:15,440 Speaker 5: If we don't get that done, that playing field has 1101 01:04:15,480 --> 01:04:18,760 Speaker 5: been so uneven. You've been a proponent for that. Thanks 1102 01:04:18,760 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 5: for your support of that vocally. 1103 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:26,600 Speaker 1: Sender Jim Banks. Your response to the redistricting conversation happening 1104 01:04:26,640 --> 01:04:29,920 Speaker 1: here in Indiana. The Governor and I and n I's 1105 01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:33,320 Speaker 1: just had a long conversation about what's happening here with 1106 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 1: the Indiana State House. There's a lot of Republicans, especially 1107 01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,840 Speaker 1: in the Indiana Senate, that are a little wishy washy, 1108 01:04:40,520 --> 01:04:45,360 Speaker 1: a little unsure about changing of the congressional maps. As 1109 01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:49,200 Speaker 1: somebody that's representing Indiana and Washington d C. Your thoughts 1110 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:53,000 Speaker 1: on the whole concept, the whole conversation of changing the map. 1111 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:56,680 Speaker 11: Well, I'm glad Governor bron called the special session. I'm 1112 01:04:56,720 --> 01:05:00,480 Speaker 11: glad that the House, the State House is likely to 1113 01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:04,680 Speaker 11: pass this forward tomorrow on third reading and pass it 1114 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:06,840 Speaker 11: over the Senate. And I've said all along that the 1115 01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 11: Senate should just vote on it. I think when they 1116 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:10,720 Speaker 11: vote on it, they're going to You're going to see 1117 01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:14,320 Speaker 11: senators and maybe have been you know that haven't been 1118 01:05:14,320 --> 01:05:16,440 Speaker 11: public about their stances. They're going to vote for it 1119 01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 11: because that's what their voters want them to do. So 1120 01:05:19,320 --> 01:05:22,080 Speaker 11: just vote on it. Just be transparent about it. Don't 1121 01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:23,480 Speaker 11: don't sweep it under the rug. 1122 01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 1: Just have a vote on it. 1123 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:28,479 Speaker 11: Make it public so all the senators cast their vote 1124 01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:30,760 Speaker 11: and their constituents know where they stand on it. I mean, 1125 01:05:30,800 --> 01:05:32,480 Speaker 11: at the end of the day, we know that the 1126 01:05:32,520 --> 01:05:37,840 Speaker 11: Democrats cheated and manipulated the data from the last census. 1127 01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:40,840 Speaker 11: When Joe Biden came to and took over the White House, 1128 01:05:40,880 --> 01:05:43,640 Speaker 11: they took the census data from the twenty twenty census 1129 01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:47,440 Speaker 11: and they and they use that they misused that data 1130 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:51,880 Speaker 11: to create more Democrat seats and Democrat states and take 1131 01:05:52,800 --> 01:05:55,400 Speaker 11: seats away from We know that Florida and Texas would 1132 01:05:55,400 --> 01:05:58,800 Speaker 11: have more Republican districts than what they do because of 1133 01:05:58,840 --> 01:06:02,600 Speaker 11: how they manipulated this data. They counted illegals in the 1134 01:06:02,720 --> 01:06:06,680 Speaker 11: census data and used that to how they how they. 1135 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 1: They drew some of these districts. 1136 01:06:07,520 --> 01:06:11,280 Speaker 11: So then you have states like California, Illinois threatening to 1137 01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:15,000 Speaker 11: do it. Other other Democrat states who are doing this 1138 01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:18,240 Speaker 11: mid cycle redistricting. But I think I think the governor 1139 01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:22,120 Speaker 11: and I agree on this, that that the way the 1140 01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 11: way that they manipulated that data, and how the Democrats 1141 01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:27,440 Speaker 11: have have managed this process. 1142 01:06:28,040 --> 01:06:28,200 Speaker 2: Uh. 1143 01:06:28,200 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 11: There there's a good reason for Indiana's nine votes in 1144 01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 11: Congress to mean even more, uh, for to go to 1145 01:06:35,400 --> 01:06:37,800 Speaker 11: do this mid mid cycle redistricting. There's a there's a 1146 01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:40,080 Speaker 11: there's a logic, there's a case. There's a case here 1147 01:06:40,080 --> 01:06:42,080 Speaker 11: to be made, and I'm glad that the State House 1148 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:43,080 Speaker 11: is moving forward on it. 1149 01:06:43,400 --> 01:06:46,080 Speaker 1: Senator, last thing here before we'll let you go, have 1150 01:06:46,200 --> 01:06:49,280 Speaker 1: you been talking any trash to the Vice president about 1151 01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,480 Speaker 1: this i U Ohio State football game coming up this weekend? 1152 01:06:52,920 --> 01:06:56,840 Speaker 1: You better believe it. I believe it. I was thought 1153 01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:57,960 Speaker 1: he can play that. 1154 01:06:58,040 --> 01:07:01,080 Speaker 11: The last time he was in Indianapolis was whenever whenever 1155 01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:03,320 Speaker 11: there was was the Rose Bowl and the mid two 1156 01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:06,439 Speaker 11: thousands when he drove over from Columbus and Ohio State 1157 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 11: got thumped by somebody I forget who it was. So 1158 01:07:08,680 --> 01:07:11,720 Speaker 11: he doesn't have fond memories of Ohio State playing in 1159 01:07:11,800 --> 01:07:15,080 Speaker 11: Indianapolis and UH and bowl games.

Thank you for being 1170 01:07:39,840 --> 01:07:43,600 Speaker 1: patient here, and you were over in the mix today 1171 01:07:43,640 --> 01:07:49,320 Speaker 1: at the Indiana General Assembly. The topic was redistrict ing. 1172 01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:51,640 Speaker 1: It's so hard for me to say that. Did I 1173 01:07:51,680 --> 01:07:55,160 Speaker 1: do it right? Thank you, Press, thank you. Wow. You 1174 01:07:55,200 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 1: were kind of texting me back and forth. Tons of amendments, 1175 01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:01,840 Speaker 1: everybody's got in the walk me through the latest. What 1176 01:08:01,880 --> 01:08:02,680 Speaker 1: are we doing here? 1177 01:08:03,680 --> 01:08:06,439 Speaker 7: Yeah, so good to be back, guys. You know, it's 1178 01:08:06,520 --> 01:08:09,240 Speaker 7: interesting to me. I think we saw more amendments on 1179 01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:13,320 Speaker 7: this today than almost any other bill during the last session. 1180 01:08:14,560 --> 01:08:17,040 Speaker 7: You know, it's kind of a three day process. Usually 1181 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:18,640 Speaker 7: you go through a committee, then you go to the 1182 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:20,760 Speaker 7: floor and you've got amendments, and then on the last 1183 01:08:20,840 --> 01:08:22,639 Speaker 7: day you have an up or down vote of whether 1184 01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:24,439 Speaker 7: or not you're going to pass the final version of 1185 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:27,080 Speaker 7: that bill. So we've gone through the you know, the 1186 01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:29,560 Speaker 7: second piece of that there. Today we went through the amendments. 1187 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:33,559 Speaker 7: Democrats offered everything out of the sun. All of those 1188 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:36,120 Speaker 7: were defeated. So tomorrow's the big day. The House will 1189 01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 7: have a chance to vote up or down of whether 1190 01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:40,720 Speaker 7: or not they are going to move forward with redistricting, 1191 01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:42,160 Speaker 7: and then it goes off to the Senate. 1192 01:08:42,600 --> 01:08:43,439 Speaker 1: What are we hearing? 1193 01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:43,640 Speaker 3: Like? 1194 01:08:43,800 --> 01:08:46,599 Speaker 1: You know me, I'm a gambling man representative. It feels 1195 01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:49,040 Speaker 1: like the House has always had the votes. Do you 1196 01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:50,120 Speaker 1: kind of got that feeling? 1197 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:53,280 Speaker 7: Well, you know, I certainly we have the votes. I 1198 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,800 Speaker 7: feel like for tomorrow. I'm pretty confident. Speaker put out 1199 01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:59,200 Speaker 7: of a statement about a month ago too. As much, 1200 01:08:59,520 --> 01:09:02,519 Speaker 7: I'd be surprised it goes any other way. Obviously, the 1201 01:09:02,560 --> 01:09:05,120 Speaker 7: Senate is a bigger question. I think some Senators it's 1202 01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:07,200 Speaker 7: still not clear where they stand on this one. So 1203 01:09:07,600 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 7: we really may not know where it ends up until 1204 01:09:10,360 --> 01:09:10,840 Speaker 7: next week. 1205 01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:14,080 Speaker 2: So what's the timeline? Then you vote tomorrow and then 1206 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:16,520 Speaker 2: it goes over to the Senate. Then what happens? 1207 01:09:17,040 --> 01:09:19,559 Speaker 7: So the Senatel gavel in on Monday, I think their 1208 01:09:19,600 --> 01:09:21,720 Speaker 7: calendar to be in all of next week, So the 1209 01:09:21,720 --> 01:09:23,320 Speaker 7: hope would be that they would send it to a 1210 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:27,160 Speaker 7: committee hearing, just like we did take public testimony. Then 1211 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,080 Speaker 7: they'd come back a day or two later and they'd 1212 01:09:29,120 --> 01:09:31,760 Speaker 7: go and do amendments on the floor. Hopefully you know, 1213 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:33,960 Speaker 7: that kind of continues to move forward, and then if 1214 01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 7: they agree with the bill we gave them, they'll be 1215 01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:39,040 Speaker 7: a single vote by then. If they pass it, it goes 1216 01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:41,600 Speaker 7: to the governor. If they have any amendments, and we 1217 01:09:41,640 --> 01:09:43,600 Speaker 7: have a conference committee and both sides they have to 1218 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:45,400 Speaker 7: kind of hash it back out and we'll have maybe 1219 01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:47,479 Speaker 7: one more vote on each side to get it done. 1220 01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 7: But I'm cautiously optimistic that I think we're going to 1221 01:09:50,360 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 7: get to twenty six votes of the Senate and get 1222 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:52,959 Speaker 7: this done. 1223 01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:58,719 Speaker 1: Representative Andrew Ireland with us. I love this idea. I'm 1224 01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:04,200 Speaker 1: hoping it can become fruition your plan to impeach rogue 1225 01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:09,120 Speaker 1: judges and prosecutors. Andrew is somebody that lives in Marion County. 1226 01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:13,280 Speaker 1: You're talking romance to me here when you're talking rogue 1227 01:10:13,439 --> 01:10:16,000 Speaker 1: judges and prosecutors. Walk me through this. 1228 01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:19,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, So, I mean this is really simple. In fact, 1229 01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:21,400 Speaker 7: there are only about two jobs in the state of Indiana. 1230 01:10:21,520 --> 01:10:23,960 Speaker 7: If you're in government that cannot be impeached right now, 1231 01:10:24,000 --> 01:10:27,680 Speaker 7: and that is circuit judges and prosecuting attorneys. It's a 1232 01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:30,120 Speaker 7: cork of our Indiana Constitution the way the courts have 1233 01:10:30,160 --> 01:10:31,920 Speaker 7: interpreted it. So all I want to do is say, 1234 01:10:32,080 --> 01:10:34,320 Speaker 7: there's long list of other people that could be impeached. 1235 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 7: Guess what, guys, you're subject to the same standard that 1236 01:10:37,000 --> 01:10:39,400 Speaker 7: I'm subject to. The governor that you'll just talk to 1237 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:42,120 Speaker 7: A subject to that. We have to have some accountability 1238 01:10:42,120 --> 01:10:44,160 Speaker 7: for these people, particularly when they're not willing to do 1239 01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:46,160 Speaker 7: their jobs. And I think in part they do it 1240 01:10:46,200 --> 01:10:47,960 Speaker 7: because they know they can get away with them because 1241 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:49,960 Speaker 7: they know there's no consequences when they don't want to 1242 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:52,320 Speaker 7: be judges where they don't want to be prosecutors, but 1243 01:10:52,360 --> 01:10:54,479 Speaker 7: instead they want to be advocates for the criminals. So 1244 01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,160 Speaker 7: it's really important to have those checks in place. So 1245 01:10:57,200 --> 01:10:58,400 Speaker 7: that's exactly what this does. 1246 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,400 Speaker 1: Is there criteria for this? Because I know the folks 1247 01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:03,600 Speaker 1: on the left are going to say, you can't just 1248 01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:06,879 Speaker 1: impeach somebody because you don't like them, which the irony 1249 01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:09,600 Speaker 1: is thick. I totally get that, But what are the 1250 01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:10,800 Speaker 1: criteria for this? 1251 01:11:11,800 --> 01:11:14,280 Speaker 7: Come of three categories right, and impeach with the high 1252 01:11:14,320 --> 01:11:16,960 Speaker 7: bar are going to be clear. You know you can't 1253 01:11:17,000 --> 01:11:19,240 Speaker 7: just go and you know, impeach somebody willy nilly, you 1254 01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:21,559 Speaker 7: gotta have two thirds vote on both the House and 1255 01:11:21,600 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 7: the Senate side. As you've seen over the last couple 1256 01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:26,840 Speaker 7: of weeks, Republicans have a really hard time sometimes have 1257 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:28,880 Speaker 7: eve Ben getting to twenty six votes in the Senate. 1258 01:11:29,479 --> 01:11:31,120 Speaker 7: So this has to be you know, somebody that's really 1259 01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:33,680 Speaker 7: dead to rights. But if somebody commits a crime, if 1260 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:38,320 Speaker 7: somebody is doing effectively a visive office mau seasons or negligence, 1261 01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:40,840 Speaker 7: which is, you know, a nice legal word for not 1262 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:43,120 Speaker 7: doing your job, if you're not going and holding the 1263 01:11:43,200 --> 01:11:46,040 Speaker 7: violent criminals accountable. And so if you have one of 1264 01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:48,600 Speaker 7: those things as a prosecutor or a circuit judge, and 1265 01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:50,800 Speaker 7: you're dead to right, so you can get the votes, Yeah, 1266 01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:52,799 Speaker 7: I think it's time to go, and you know, impeach 1267 01:11:52,840 --> 01:11:55,839 Speaker 7: somebody's then the packing and hopefully that sends a message 1268 01:11:55,840 --> 01:11:58,600 Speaker 7: to these other softs on crime judges and prosecutors that 1269 01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:01,400 Speaker 7: either start doing your job or we're coming for you. 1270 01:12:01,479 --> 01:12:06,120 Speaker 1: Next thirty seconds left here. How optimistic are you that 1271 01:12:06,240 --> 01:12:07,719 Speaker 1: this can get to the finish line. 1272 01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:09,960 Speaker 7: You know, I'm feeling pretty good about this one. I 1273 01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:12,800 Speaker 7: mean one, Elon Musk tweeted out his approval of this 1274 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:15,680 Speaker 7: plan today, so I really appreciate that in one of 1275 01:12:15,760 --> 01:12:18,160 Speaker 7: the world's smartest people. But to U tuck to a 1276 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:19,840 Speaker 7: lot of the Senators, and I think that's been one 1277 01:12:19,880 --> 01:12:21,920 Speaker 7: of the hold ups. So this general issue is on 1278 01:12:21,960 --> 01:12:23,960 Speaker 7: the Senate side. I've had a lot of support of 1279 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:25,840 Speaker 7: this language. I think this is the best a proach 1280 01:12:25,880 --> 01:12:28,200 Speaker 7: we've tried so far, So I'm hopeful we're going to 1281 01:12:28,240 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 7: get it done this time. 1282 01:12:29,439 --> 01:12:32,599 Speaker 1: Representative Andrew Ireland, Hey man, keep us up to date 1283 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:35,960 Speaker 1: on all things happening over there and let us know, 1284 01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:38,200 Speaker 1: and then we'll let the masses know. We appreciate you, 1285 01:12:38,240 --> 01:12:39,120 Speaker 1: appreciate you, guys. 1286 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:41,599 Speaker 2: My name is Nigel Jason Hammer right over there also 1287 01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:43,839 Speaker 2: joining us live in studio to go off the rails. 1288 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:46,679 Speaker 2: It's one mister Rob Kendall from The Kendall in Casey Show. 1289 01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:47,400 Speaker 1: Rob, how are you? 1290 01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:50,120 Speaker 12: Oh, I'm great, Thanks as always to our segment sponsor, 1291 01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:51,640 Speaker 12: Garage Doors of Indianapolis. 1292 01:12:51,680 --> 01:12:52,719 Speaker 1: They're the best. I heard. 1293 01:12:52,920 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 2: Your guest earlier this morning on your show is Nikki 1294 01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:59,800 Speaker 2: Kelly from Capitol Chronicle, and you kind of you into 1295 01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:04,400 Speaker 2: the conversation, you kind of pinder down metaphorically speaking, hey, 1296 01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 2: and you said, you know, best guess. 1297 01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:12,840 Speaker 1: Easy, they're Weinstein, is Weinstein? Whatever? 1298 01:13:14,520 --> 01:13:17,640 Speaker 2: Best guess is this going to get through the Is 1299 01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:21,000 Speaker 2: redistricting going to get through committee and get voted on 1300 01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:21,639 Speaker 2: by the Senate? 1301 01:13:22,520 --> 01:13:22,640 Speaker 6: Like? 1302 01:13:23,080 --> 01:13:24,720 Speaker 1: Is that what you asked her today? Understand, we've been 1303 01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:25,479 Speaker 1: asking our media people. 1304 01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:27,040 Speaker 12: We've had all these media people on this week and 1305 01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:29,040 Speaker 12: I've asked every single one of them, The Star and 1306 01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:30,920 Speaker 12: Capitol Chronicle and all these people. 1307 01:13:30,960 --> 01:13:32,400 Speaker 1: Do they think this thing is going to go forward? 1308 01:13:32,479 --> 01:13:32,760 Speaker 1: What's for? 1309 01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 2: What has to happen next? What's going to happen next? 1310 01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:36,640 Speaker 2: Here in this process? 1311 01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:39,880 Speaker 12: The Household prove it tomorrow, that's a foregone conclusion. Then 1312 01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:42,200 Speaker 12: the Senate will meet next week and go through the 1313 01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:45,519 Speaker 12: hearing process. Now it is unknown what committee they're going 1314 01:13:45,560 --> 01:13:47,680 Speaker 12: to assign it to. That's a Rod Bray deal, right, 1315 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:50,680 Speaker 12: Bray's going to pick the committee assignment. And when he 1316 01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:54,080 Speaker 12: picks it, will they even hear it? And if they 1317 01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:55,840 Speaker 12: hear it, will they approve it to even get it 1318 01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:56,759 Speaker 12: to the Senate for a vote. 1319 01:13:56,800 --> 01:13:59,360 Speaker 1: Now, this is a big deal because in the past, 1320 01:13:59,680 --> 01:14:04,320 Speaker 1: the people Rod Bray has picked for certain committees have 1321 01:14:04,400 --> 01:14:07,599 Speaker 1: been designed to screw you. Go back to property taxes, 1322 01:14:07,840 --> 01:14:10,800 Speaker 1: and he puts people like Scott Baldwin on the committee 1323 01:14:10,840 --> 01:14:14,400 Speaker 1: who've got financial skin in the game for screwing people over. 1324 01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:17,000 Speaker 12: Oh totally'll I think you'll get an idea based on 1325 01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:20,920 Speaker 12: where it goes in committee. Now it will depend on Look, 1326 01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:24,000 Speaker 12: I'm so torn on this because I just can't like, 1327 01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:26,519 Speaker 12: and you know, in your mind, you can't picture things 1328 01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:29,599 Speaker 12: like what it's going to be Like. I can't picture 1329 01:14:29,680 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 12: Bray allowing something to be voted on and approve that 1330 01:14:32,560 --> 01:14:35,160 Speaker 12: he's vehemently against, which he clearly is with this. But 1331 01:14:35,240 --> 01:14:38,760 Speaker 12: then I also can't picture the governor getting thoroughly embarrassed 1332 01:14:38,800 --> 01:14:41,720 Speaker 12: in front of the entire nation. But Brown has been 1333 01:14:41,720 --> 01:14:45,240 Speaker 12: such an ass about this and goaded and insulted Bray 1334 01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:48,920 Speaker 12: and challenged him. And but ba da dah. Maybe Bray's like, 1335 01:14:48,960 --> 01:14:50,720 Speaker 12: just get him what he wants, will embarrass him in 1336 01:14:50,760 --> 01:14:52,920 Speaker 12: front of the nation, and Bray can be bought. We 1337 01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:57,200 Speaker 12: saw that with Constitutional Carry Allegedly, when the NRA started 1338 01:14:57,200 --> 01:14:59,120 Speaker 12: making phone calls up it'd be a shame of all 1339 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:01,320 Speaker 12: of our funding stuff coming to the state of Indiana 1340 01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:03,400 Speaker 12: all of a sudden, he believed in Second Amendment. 1341 01:15:03,439 --> 01:15:03,599 Speaker 5: Right. 1342 01:15:03,720 --> 01:15:06,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, the difference here is he does, the constituents aren't 1343 01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 12: for it. This is the problem. This is an invention 1344 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,599 Speaker 12: of Donald Trump and these people being subservient to him 1345 01:15:10,920 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 12: and these outside groups like Turning Point USA. Poll after 1346 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:17,960 Speaker 12: poll after poll shows the people of Indiana are against 1347 01:15:17,960 --> 01:15:21,440 Speaker 12: this and those maps are an abomination. Those maps are disgusting. 1348 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:22,800 Speaker 1: Why are they disgusting? 1349 01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:26,200 Speaker 12: Look, the whole premise of representative right is the word 1350 01:15:26,200 --> 01:15:28,120 Speaker 12: you're supposed to represent. When you look at how the 1351 01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:30,400 Speaker 12: founders put the country together. There's a reason there's a 1352 01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:32,880 Speaker 12: house in a Senate. The Senate's the upper chamber. It's 1353 01:15:32,920 --> 01:15:34,960 Speaker 12: the big pictures. Why they're up every six years. They 1354 01:15:34,960 --> 01:15:37,439 Speaker 12: represent the entire state. The House is supposed to be 1355 01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:41,439 Speaker 12: people who represent a group of people with like minded interest. 1356 01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:44,320 Speaker 12: When you go to Washington, your job really is and 1357 01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:45,880 Speaker 12: I mean it's become this, but not to be a 1358 01:15:45,880 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 12: Republican or Democrat. Your job is to say, my people 1359 01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:50,840 Speaker 12: feel this way about this issue. I'm supposed to fight 1360 01:15:50,920 --> 01:15:53,400 Speaker 12: for these people who this is going to impact them 1361 01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:57,439 Speaker 12: in this manner. There are districts multiple ones that start 1362 01:15:57,439 --> 01:16:02,519 Speaker 12: in Indianapolis and stretch across the entire state. The people 1363 01:16:02,560 --> 01:16:04,760 Speaker 12: of Marion County have nothing in common with somebody at 1364 01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:08,360 Speaker 12: the southern tip of Indiana, these largely rural ag districts. 1365 01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:11,320 Speaker 1: And yet I think I do. I'm Marion County. I 1366 01:16:11,320 --> 01:16:13,160 Speaker 1: think I probably got a little bit in common with 1367 01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:16,000 Speaker 1: the old books at the River of Ohio. We both 1368 01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:18,320 Speaker 1: like to gamble, we go to casinos, and we don't 1369 01:16:18,320 --> 01:16:20,679 Speaker 1: want to have Andre Carson. We got a lot in common. 1370 01:16:21,160 --> 01:16:22,600 Speaker 12: I guarantee you that a lot of those people in 1371 01:16:22,600 --> 01:16:24,599 Speaker 12: other Indiana don'tive two damns about Andre Carson. 1372 01:16:24,640 --> 01:16:27,240 Speaker 1: That is a Marian know him, and that's the point. 1373 01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:28,080 Speaker 1: But that's the point. 1374 01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:30,920 Speaker 12: Though your job, there will be policies, I promise you, 1375 01:16:30,960 --> 01:16:33,839 Speaker 12: there will be numerous policies that will be in direct 1376 01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:37,559 Speaker 12: conflict where this person's vote will screw somebody in their 1377 01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:40,320 Speaker 12: district because of the way these districts are set up. Look, okay, 1378 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:42,519 Speaker 12: and here's another example of this, because people have been 1379 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:45,320 Speaker 12: on me about this about Shreve. How did Jefferson Shreed 1380 01:16:45,360 --> 01:16:48,240 Speaker 12: become a congressman. He spent an entire year screwing the 1381 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:52,519 Speaker 12: people of Marion County, lying and running this horrible mayoral campaign. 1382 01:16:52,760 --> 01:16:55,519 Speaker 12: But he was essentially spent fifteen sixteen million dollars whatever 1383 01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:58,519 Speaker 12: of name id. He district that he's in now has 1384 01:16:58,600 --> 01:17:00,880 Speaker 12: a portion of Marion County and it stretches all the 1385 01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:01,960 Speaker 12: way to the Ohio border. 1386 01:17:02,320 --> 01:17:02,920 Speaker 1: What did he do? 1387 01:17:03,200 --> 01:17:05,040 Speaker 12: He ran up the score in Marion County When he 1388 01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:07,160 Speaker 12: ran for Congress, he didn't get a majority of the 1389 01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:09,080 Speaker 12: vote or anywhere close to it. He got all those 1390 01:17:09,080 --> 01:17:11,160 Speaker 12: people in Marion County a vote for him, and now 1391 01:17:11,160 --> 01:17:14,520 Speaker 12: he's a congressman. He is a Marion County Congressman representing 1392 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:16,599 Speaker 12: the rest of that entire district. That's what almost every 1393 01:17:16,640 --> 01:17:18,360 Speaker 12: district is going to be like if these maps passed. 1394 01:17:18,439 --> 01:17:20,920 Speaker 2: Let me let me ask you this, how much sway 1395 01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:24,920 Speaker 2: how much poll does Rod Bray Senate pro tim have 1396 01:17:27,600 --> 01:17:30,520 Speaker 2: over the people under him? 1397 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:31,120 Speaker 1: A lot? 1398 01:17:31,280 --> 01:17:33,880 Speaker 2: I mean that's why property taxes went down. That's why 1399 01:17:33,920 --> 01:17:35,559 Speaker 2: I mean he does. He's the big boss, right. I 1400 01:17:35,560 --> 01:17:38,320 Speaker 2: mean you could make a case maybe Houston. 1401 01:17:37,920 --> 01:17:42,120 Speaker 1: Which is why I'm surprised you aren't as anti Rod 1402 01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:45,680 Speaker 1: Bray as I am. Property taxes was your baby, that 1403 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:48,360 Speaker 1: was like your cause. Like I'm ticked off because I 1404 01:17:48,400 --> 01:17:51,320 Speaker 1: think he's the reason why in his little elite team 1405 01:17:51,360 --> 01:17:54,280 Speaker 1: of butt sniffers underneath of them that we got screwed. Like, 1406 01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:56,439 Speaker 1: I feel like you should be more angry than anybody 1407 01:17:56,479 --> 01:18:00,000 Speaker 1: at Rodbrooke, like Rod Bray, Well, you're way angrier about 1408 01:18:00,160 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 1: Braun and Beckwick. They lied to me. 1409 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:05,040 Speaker 12: Rod Brden lied to me. Don't lie to me. Braun 1410 01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:07,759 Speaker 12: looked me right in the eye, lied to me numerous times. 1411 01:18:07,960 --> 01:18:12,400 Speaker 12: Micah lied to me numerous times. Those guys, eh, don't. 1412 01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:13,960 Speaker 12: I can deal with people that I don't agree with. 1413 01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:15,960 Speaker 12: I get on by with Jesse Brown. I agree with 1414 01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:17,680 Speaker 12: him on anything. He looks right in the face, tells 1415 01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:18,320 Speaker 12: me what he thinks. 1416 01:18:18,520 --> 01:18:21,960 Speaker 1: Dare I say, friend of the show, you've been with us? 1417 01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:23,960 Speaker 1: I get along with all sorts of liberal people. Do 1418 01:18:24,200 --> 01:18:25,760 Speaker 1: you make fun of my friends all the time? 1419 01:18:25,880 --> 01:18:26,040 Speaker 5: Right? 1420 01:18:26,200 --> 01:18:29,559 Speaker 12: They don't lie to me the bad guy. Those guys 1421 01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:32,000 Speaker 12: lied to me, and they lied to the state. I 1422 01:18:32,000 --> 01:18:34,479 Speaker 12: got no tolerance for that. Because you can't trust him, 1423 01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 12: you can't deal with them. I know what Rod Bray 1424 01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:38,400 Speaker 12: is the same ways I know what the Democrats are. Look, 1425 01:18:38,479 --> 01:18:42,320 Speaker 12: I do not believe. Look, Jennifer Ruth Green is a 1426 01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:46,800 Speaker 12: disgusting person. She failed in that run for Congress. They 1427 01:18:46,880 --> 01:18:49,360 Speaker 12: tried to push her up by giving her this cushy 1428 01:18:49,439 --> 01:18:52,000 Speaker 12: two hundred and seventy five thousand dollars taxpayer funded job, 1429 01:18:52,200 --> 01:18:54,840 Speaker 12: and because she has the ethics of Tony Soprano, she 1430 01:18:54,960 --> 01:18:57,040 Speaker 12: couldn't even make it eight months before they had to 1431 01:18:57,080 --> 01:18:59,000 Speaker 12: get rid of her. That's who's going to be their 1432 01:18:59,040 --> 01:19:01,160 Speaker 12: golden child in that first congressional district. 1433 01:19:01,320 --> 01:19:02,719 Speaker 1: Is that the person that's gonna. 1434 01:19:02,479 --> 01:19:04,719 Speaker 12: Save America because that's what they want us to believe. 1435 01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:06,960 Speaker 12: I don't believe in rewarding these people. I don't want 1436 01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:09,439 Speaker 12: any more Jefferson Shreeves, and I don't want Andre cars 1437 01:19:09,479 --> 01:19:11,719 Speaker 12: to be the mayor of Indianapolis, which is what's gonna happen. 1438 01:19:12,400 --> 01:19:15,040 Speaker 1: Okay, here's my thing about Andre Carson becoming the mayor 1439 01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:18,519 Speaker 1: of Indianapolis. If he just shows up and he's sober, 1440 01:19:18,560 --> 01:19:21,679 Speaker 1: I feel like we've made progress. Like I'm not gonna 1441 01:19:21,760 --> 01:19:24,640 Speaker 1: like policies, but I don't like Joe Hawks. That's policies. 1442 01:19:24,920 --> 01:19:27,680 Speaker 1: Is he going to be there? Is he gonna be coherent? 1443 01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:30,800 Speaker 1: Is he not faced down in a urinal somewhere? Like 1444 01:19:30,960 --> 01:19:33,800 Speaker 1: If that's the case, I feel like we've made progress. 1445 01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:36,679 Speaker 12: We have to stop the Republican lies and the bad 1446 01:19:36,720 --> 01:19:39,320 Speaker 12: Republican behavior. When my two and a half year old 1447 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 12: misbehavior mismisbehaves, I don't give her more candy. I don't 1448 01:19:43,240 --> 01:19:45,280 Speaker 12: give her cookies and go great job, Livy. If she 1449 01:19:45,360 --> 01:19:47,200 Speaker 12: draws on the wall, I put her in time out. 1450 01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,200 Speaker 12: We have had nothing but bad behavior from these Republicans. 1451 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:54,439 Speaker 12: The taxes, the corruption, the conflicts of interest, the utility bills. 1452 01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:56,720 Speaker 12: They don't do anything to help us. And we're like, well, 1453 01:19:56,800 --> 01:19:58,559 Speaker 12: let's just reward him and give him two more seats. 1454 01:19:58,560 --> 01:20:01,040 Speaker 1: Why would they ever help us? And I agree with you, 1455 01:20:01,320 --> 01:20:03,479 Speaker 1: and you're right about that, but I feel like there's 1456 01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:08,320 Speaker 1: a better chance of primarying a Republican turn out than 1457 01:20:08,439 --> 01:20:12,160 Speaker 1: primarying Andre Carson out because Andre Carson is a made 1458 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:16,080 Speaker 1: man here in Marion County. He is like the uh 1459 01:20:16,720 --> 01:20:20,080 Speaker 1: capo of a mafia. He is not going anywhere he 1460 01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:23,840 Speaker 1: has set. He could walk out there pantiless and say hey, 1461 01:20:24,160 --> 01:20:26,280 Speaker 1: all of you can bite me, and he would win 1462 01:20:26,320 --> 01:20:28,439 Speaker 1: in a landslide. Because the last name is Carson, Henry 1463 01:20:28,479 --> 01:20:29,160 Speaker 1: Carson doesn't matter. 1464 01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:31,360 Speaker 12: If the Republicans would just act like Republicans, none of 1465 01:20:31,400 --> 01:20:33,680 Speaker 12: this would be an issue. It's the Republicans who are 1466 01:20:33,680 --> 01:20:35,880 Speaker 12: to blame because they have all the power. We don't 1467 01:20:35,920 --> 01:20:38,040 Speaker 12: need Andre car It doesn't matter about Andre Carson. 1468 01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:40,599 Speaker 2: It just doesn't pass through the Senate. It's just as 1469 01:20:40,640 --> 01:20:43,760 Speaker 2: embarrassing for Rod bras it is Governor Braun, Isn't it 1470 01:20:43,960 --> 01:20:45,800 Speaker 2: why Bray's been against it from the beginning. If I 1471 01:20:45,800 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 2: beg you not to keep something, but he's letting them. 1472 01:20:48,280 --> 01:20:50,320 Speaker 2: He's bringing it to the table though, So why bring 1473 01:20:50,360 --> 01:20:52,360 Speaker 2: it to the table because he wants embarrass Braun? If 1474 01:20:52,400 --> 01:20:54,880 Speaker 2: he wants to do think that's his endgame here. I think, 1475 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:58,200 Speaker 2: why did he one a Well, I don't know. 1476 01:20:58,320 --> 01:20:58,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1477 01:20:58,680 --> 01:21:00,559 Speaker 12: You'd have to ask him. Here's what I know. You 1478 01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:03,800 Speaker 12: got what twenty knows right, well, probably twenty two. I 1479 01:21:03,800 --> 01:21:04,920 Speaker 12: know of a couple of people that are knows that 1480 01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:06,960 Speaker 12: haven't announced it, but I'm not gonna out them on 1481 01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:09,759 Speaker 12: that because that's their job to do. You got basically 1482 01:21:09,800 --> 01:21:12,519 Speaker 12: twenty two people that are against. So that's like ten Democrats, 1483 01:21:12,520 --> 01:21:17,000 Speaker 12: twelve Republicans. You've got what is it twenty twenty yes? Confirmed?

I got some people say 1514 01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:35,960 Speaker 12: I don't have idea, it's super close. But like these 1515 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:39,840 Speaker 12: people that are coming out in the nose, they are 1516 01:22:39,920 --> 01:22:43,880 Speaker 12: subservient to Braun Bray, many of them. They wouldn't be 1517 01:22:43,960 --> 01:22:47,320 Speaker 12: doing that if they thought he was really for this 1518 01:22:47,439 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 12: or was gonna be angry if they did that, because 1519 01:22:49,000 --> 01:22:52,160 Speaker 12: those those committee assignments and stuff are two they're too important. 1520 01:22:52,160 --> 01:22:54,960 Speaker 12: And I think maybe Braun was such an ass about 1521 01:22:54,960 --> 01:22:57,719 Speaker 12: this and Bray.

Stores are moving out, nobody's moving 1542 01:23:46,240 --> 01:23:46,559 Speaker 1: back in. 1543 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:47,320 Speaker 5: Uh. 1544 01:23:47,360 --> 01:23:49,360 Speaker 1: The coupon Lady and I had a little date night 1545 01:23:49,400 --> 01:23:52,640 Speaker 1: a couple of weekends ago, Friday night downtown went to 1546 01:23:52,640 --> 01:23:54,960 Speaker 1: the comedy club. And this was a warm night. It 1547 01:23:55,000 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 1: was like sixty degrees, unseasonably warm on a Friday. There 1548 01:23:58,320 --> 01:24:01,479 Speaker 1: was hardly anybody out downtown. The Country Bar was full, 1549 01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:04,080 Speaker 1: the comedy club was full, and that was it. 1550 01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:06,400 Speaker 2: And the studies have been done that we're higher than 1551 01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:09,000 Speaker 2: the national average of empty office space. 1552 01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:12,519 Speaker 1: Over double the national average. So explain to me, Rob, 1553 01:24:12,760 --> 01:24:16,800 Speaker 1: why do people like the Indie Chamber, the Chamber of Commerce, 1554 01:24:17,120 --> 01:24:19,840 Speaker 1: hitch their wagon to people like Joe hawk Set and 1555 01:24:20,000 --> 01:24:23,160 Speaker 1: endorse them when last time I remember hawks Set have 1556 01:24:23,280 --> 01:24:25,599 Speaker 1: businesses out to dry during the riots. 1557 01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:27,639 Speaker 12: We had this conversation today on our show because we're 1558 01:24:27,640 --> 01:24:30,080 Speaker 12: talking about these people who look I never changed, right. 1559 01:24:30,120 --> 01:24:32,800 Speaker 12: I call people out the same principles, same everything. When 1560 01:24:32,800 --> 01:24:35,240 Speaker 12: I do it the Democrats, people love me for four years. 1561 01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:36,760 Speaker 12: When we're doing it to Biden and now the same 1562 01:24:36,760 --> 01:24:39,080 Speaker 12: standard to Trump, people get mad and or screaming at me. 1563 01:24:39,479 --> 01:24:41,759 Speaker 12: And somebody I was talking the other day that's connecting 1564 01:24:41,800 --> 01:24:43,000 Speaker 12: the State House, said you got to think of it 1565 01:24:43,040 --> 01:24:45,559 Speaker 12: like this. Remember when they had Bob Knight literally on 1566 01:24:45,600 --> 01:24:48,960 Speaker 12: camera choking a kid and people were still like in 1567 01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:52,120 Speaker 12: some sort of denial, like Night got a raw deal. No, 1568 01:24:52,240 --> 01:24:54,679 Speaker 12: you can see him wrap his hands around that guy's 1569 01:24:54,720 --> 01:24:56,839 Speaker 12: throat in his head, jerks back violently. 1570 01:24:56,880 --> 01:24:58,040 Speaker 1: He was choking a kid. 1571 01:24:58,479 --> 01:25:00,880 Speaker 12: Why did people continue to find by for years all 1572 01:25:00,920 --> 01:25:02,680 Speaker 12: the crap, putting the cop in the trash can and 1573 01:25:02,880 --> 01:25:05,240 Speaker 12: throwing the plants and the soil toilet paper because they 1574 01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:08,599 Speaker 12: were so emotionally connected into it. And if at some point, 1575 01:25:08,600 --> 01:25:11,280 Speaker 12: if you've been so emotionally connected into something. You break 1576 01:25:11,320 --> 01:25:14,840 Speaker 12: from it, you're not only indicting that person, you're indicting yourself. 1577 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:16,479 Speaker 12: And I think that's part of it, is like these 1578 01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:19,080 Speaker 12: people have been in this club for so long and 1579 01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:22,519 Speaker 12: it's kind of the leadist, like bigger than the Peasants Club, 1580 01:25:22,720 --> 01:25:24,600 Speaker 12: and Joe Hoggs has been sort of the face of 1581 01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:26,760 Speaker 12: it that if you break from it, like it's an 1582 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:28,920 Speaker 12: emotional thing, like it's a trigger in your brain that 1583 01:25:28,960 --> 01:25:31,599 Speaker 12: they just can't do it no matter how bad it gets. 1584 01:25:32,560 --> 01:25:35,439 Speaker 1: So we got a couple seconds left here.
