1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: I said this on Twitter over the weekend. By the way,

2
00:00:03,640 --> 00:00:06,280
Speaker 1: it's Kenel and Casey Show. I'm Rob, that's Casey. This

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 1: redistricting thing is playing out in real time what we

4
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: have been telling you on this program.

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,480
Speaker 2: I have been saying for nine years on.

6
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: This radio station about who these people, the elected people,

7
00:00:20,800 --> 00:00:23,280
Speaker 1: not just the elected people, but the people.

8
00:00:22,960 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 2: Who live in the political orbit. Who they are.

9
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 1: They are proving this in real time because all of

10
00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:34,200
Speaker 1: these people are disgusting. They don't care about you at all.

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: This isn't about bettering anybody's lives. It's about bettering themselves.

12
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,319
Speaker 1: And now this thing with Mike Bohatchick is playing out,

13
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,520
Speaker 1: and I'm just sitting here going the prosecution rests.

14
00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 2: You're honor where you been.

15
00:00:45,400 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 3: What you're saying is hello, We've been talking about this

16
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:49,160
Speaker 3: since June.

17
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 4: Second.

18
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:50,279
Speaker 3: Yeah.

19
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 2: By the way, it's Kendell and Casey Show. I'm Rob.

20
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: That's Casey. So Mike Bohatchik is a Republican. By the way,

21
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:00,440
Speaker 1: are they meeting? Is it started? This House supposed to

22
00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: be starting today some sort of get together about redistricting.

23
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: They're very excited about altering the maps that no one

24
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,120
Speaker 1: has seen. There's been no testimony given, there's been no

25
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,640
Speaker 1: community statements, nothing. They're getting ready to meet at some

26
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,040
Speaker 1: point today to begin that process. And they're related. Like

27
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: you see, these lawmakers, many of them are very very

28
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: excited about this now. They're not giving a damn about

29
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,680
Speaker 1: your property taxes being out of control. They're not talking

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 1: about getting utility bills, any affordability on utility bills. They're

31
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: not talking about curbing one of the nation's highest gas taxes.

32
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,680
Speaker 1: They're not talking about opening up the books and having

33
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: a robust debate and discussion about the Indian Economic Development

34
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: Corporation that the independent audit showed hundreds of millions of

35
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: dollars of conflicts of interest and I'll just say it

36
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: corruption that's been going on. They're not talking about any

37
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 1: of that. You're the Republican members of the Indiana House.

38
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: They're not doing a damn thing or posing doing a

39
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: damn thing about any of that. But people like Andrew Ireland,

40
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: State rep from Indianapolis are are just elated over the

41
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 1: fact that they can potentially rig the maps to put

42
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,920
Speaker 1: two more Republicans in the House to not help you

43
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 1: at all. That's what these people are and that's what

44
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:21,360
Speaker 1: this is all about. But over the weekend, Mike Bohatchik,

45
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: state senator from north would you say northwestern Indiana? I

46
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: guess he's a region guy, a Republican, announced that he

47
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 1: is going to vote against redistricting. And as soon as

48
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: he made that announcement, now he pinned it. Well, he

49
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,200
Speaker 1: didn't pin it on. He did pin it on, and

50
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:43,920
Speaker 1: then he got a bunch of crap for it, and

51
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,520
Speaker 1: he goes, well, it's not the it's not the reason.

52
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: It's just like another reason I'm doing this. Trump's rambling incoherent,

53
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: ridiculous statement over the weekend, the Thanksgiving message.

54
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 4: The Thanksgiving post. Yeah, that was so long.

55
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 3: It started out in very happy Thanksgiving salutation to all

56
00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 3: of our great American citizens and patriots who have been

57
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:09,640
Speaker 3: so nice in allowing our country to be a divided, disruptive,

58
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 3: carved up, murdered, beating, mugged and laughed at.

59
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 4: And then he goes on and says a whole bunch

60
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 4: of other stuff and in.

61
00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 2: The message, and look, I don't use this word.

62
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,240
Speaker 1: I'm not some person who starts pointing at people when

63
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:28,679
Speaker 1: they do and says you're the worst of humanity. I

64
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 1: just choose not to use it. It doesn't make me

65
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: better than anybody. I will use it here for the

66
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: purpose of this discussion because it's important to what we're

67
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: talking about. Again, I'm not trying to be some holy

68
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: roller saying if somebody uses this word, they're a bad person.

69
00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: Whatever.

70
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: But he called Tim Walls, the governor of Minnesota who

71
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,280
Speaker 1: was the vice presidential nominee for Kamala Harris.

72
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,280
Speaker 2: He called him retarded.

73
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 4: Yeah.

74
00:03:53,080 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 1: And Mike Bohachik, state senator from northwestern Indiana, as a

75
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: I believe it's a daughter who has Down syndrome.

76
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: And he came out in a very forceful.

77
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: Statement and basically said, I'm voting against redistricting because I've

78
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 1: had enough of Trump's bs and I don't appreciate him

79
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 1: using that word. And if he wants to win that

80
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: seat the first Congressional District, which is the Chicago Land Region,

81
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,880
Speaker 1: one of the areas they're looking at altering the maps

82
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:27,920
Speaker 1: on to try to put a Republican in that seat,

83
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:29,680
Speaker 1: he can win at the old fashioned way.

84
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 2: I'm not going to help him do it.

85
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, he said, many of you, this is Michael Bohachik.

86
00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 3: He said, many of you have asked my position on redistricting.

87
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,280
Speaker 3: I've been an apologetic advocate for people with intellectual disabilities

88
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 3: since the birth of my second daughter. Those of you

89
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 3: that don't know me or my family might not know

90
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 3: that my daughter has Down syndrome. This is not the

91
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:53,800
Speaker 3: first time our president he's used these insulting and derogatory references,

92
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,279
Speaker 3: and his choices of words have consequences.

93
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,279
Speaker 4: I'll be voting no on redistricting.

94
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 1: And this is like, we're gonna need at least two

95
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 1: segments to do this because there's just so much going

96
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: on right now and it's about so much more than redistricting.

97
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: Like I was laughing last night when you said the

98
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: template is done, and I said, what does it just say?

99
00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 1: Rob craps On? Everyone like?

100
00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 2: Is that the like?

101
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,719
Speaker 1: Because there's like, there's just there's so much going on

102
00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 1: with this redistricting right now, and it's everything they have

103
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: been telling you on this radio station for nine years.

104
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 2: The Casey and I have been talking about.

105
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,279
Speaker 1: For almost Can you believe we've almost worked together for

106
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:33,279
Speaker 1: four years. You've made it longer than anyone. Casulations we

107
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,679
Speaker 1: had the over under on three months.

108
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you I blew past that, didn't I.

109
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:41,320
Speaker 1: But but there's just so much with this that it

110
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: actually does impact you far greater than redistricting, because these people,

111
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: both the politicians and the people in the political world,

112
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: are exposing themselves. They're showing you who they are, and

113
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 1: it's everything we've been saying.

114
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 3: You know, when you say that people in the political world,

115
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 3: are you talking about the influencers online or the con.

116
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,600
Speaker 2: Type, all of that, all of them.

117
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 1: So I mean like that, We're gonna spend a lot

118
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: of time on this today because of all the different

119
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 1: things that it touches. And it all comes back to

120
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: if you will open your eyes on this, why you

121
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:17,360
Speaker 1: keep getting screwed on property taxes, on utility meals, on

122
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 1: gas taxes, why we're giving hundreds of millions of dollars

123
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 1: to a just horribly corrupt, rotten, conflict of interest ridden

124
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 1: organization like the IEDC. All of these things that you

125
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:32,839
Speaker 1: tune into us for every day, it's playing out right

126
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 1: in front of you with this redistricting. And then hopefully

127
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:41,320
Speaker 1: you can take these just blatantly obvious examples and take

128
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:43,479
Speaker 1: them with you in the future so that you'll be

129
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 1: aware of what's going on, so you'll say, remember when

130
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:49,720
Speaker 1: we say remember when you'll go, oh, yeah, that is

131
00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: happening because you're getting screwed in all these other areas

132
00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: because of the sort of stuff that's going on right now.

133
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 1: So we're gonna spend a couple segments on this because

134
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,479
Speaker 1: there's just too much to get to in one segment.

135
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,840
Speaker 1: But as soon as Mike Bohatchick makes the statement say

136
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: he's no on redistricting, then all of a sudden, the

137
00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 1: influencer people who don't live in our state we're talking about,

138
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: Like that, is it Kurt Schlichter, guy from California or

139
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 1: the DC Dreno dude in Florida. I don't know if

140
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 1: DC Drana was involved in this, but I'm saying, like,

141
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: there's all these people who don't live in Indiana who

142
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: have made it their life's mission to get these two

143
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: Republicans seed, these two congressional seeds flip to Republican and

144
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 1: they have no idea about our state. They don't live

145
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 1: in our state, they don't spend time in our state

146
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 1: for the most part, Like but they're obsessed now with

147
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:45,440
Speaker 1: these two congressional seeds and anybody who at all, for

148
00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: whatever the reason might be. Some of them good, some

149
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 1: of them not so good. But whatever the reason is

150
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 1: they have, now they start making these people public enemy

151
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 1: number one and they try to seek and kill and

152
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: destroy them. And of course, Mike Bohachik, as anybody who

153
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 1: listen to this program for any length of time knows,

154
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 1: because we broke the story, we were screaming about it

155
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 1: six months ago, got an OWI in January of last

156
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 1: year in which he refused a breathalyzer, but his blood

157
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,679
Speaker 1: test revealed he was almost three and a half times

158
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 1: the legal limit. So all of a sudden, Mike Bohatchik,

159
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: who's had this thing out here forever, and by the way,

160
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 1: not only did he the big issues, not only did

161
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,280
Speaker 1: he get the OWI, but they were able to day

162
00:08:33,320 --> 00:08:36,959
Speaker 1: I'm saying they, the Republican Party, the senators, the leaders

163
00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:40,679
Speaker 1: in the government, were able to cover it up for

164
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:45,040
Speaker 1: about four and a half months because Bohatchick, like other lawmakers,

165
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 1: can hide behind legislative immunity where if they get arrested

166
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 1: during the session, there's no record of it, they get

167
00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 1: to go free. He had somebody come get him. What

168
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: was at point two eight was his blood draw three

169
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: and a half times the legal limit, and he was

170
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:08,079
Speaker 1: able to walk out the door, go home, keep driving,

171
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 1: which for any normal person, if you refuse the breathalyzer,

172
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:15,359
Speaker 1: automatic license suspension. He was able to keep driving, no accountability,

173
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: and then he ends up with a sweetheart plea deal.

174
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:18,199
Speaker 2: But he was able to.

175
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: Avoid the scrutiny, the mugshot, the public shaming, all of

176
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: this for basically four and a half five months. And

177
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: then once we got the story and broke the story,

178
00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 1: nobody other than basically us, the Capitol Chronicle, Indie Star,

179
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 1: a couple other local news outlets, but it was basically

180
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:36,680
Speaker 1: nobody wanted to.

181
00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 2: Talk about it.

182
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:38,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, nobody cared.

183
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:38,959
Speaker 2: No Republicans.

184
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,679
Speaker 1: We were screaming, somebody hold this guy accountable, somebody do

185
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: something about this.

186
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 2: This is rotten, this is horrible. This guy's able to

187
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 2: just waltz free. Uh huh.

188
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 3: Well that's because he was inside the tent right at

189
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 3: that point. He was still being protected.

190
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 1: And now what not because of what he did, but

191
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 1: because because he.

192
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 3: Said no something. Donald Trump won and so he said no,

193
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:01,760
Speaker 3: I'm not doing that.

194
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 4: Now everybody's looking into that. OWI.

195
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's all these videos, all these people who aren't

196
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,600
Speaker 1: from Indiana, even some people who are from Indiana. Some

197
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 1: of these political consultant peoples, one of the people that

198
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: I had a nice little back and forth with over

199
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,400
Speaker 1: the weekend, which you may have seen, you know, posting

200
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:21,400
Speaker 1: all this stuff. And I'm just going you didn't give

201
00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: a damn about this when we were begging somebody to

202
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,439
Speaker 1: do something about it. You didn't step up and help us.

203
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 1: You didn't talk about caring about how bad it was

204
00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:34,120
Speaker 1: that you have this senator with such horrible judgment making

205
00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: decisions for the people of Indiana. You weren't calling for

206
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: his resignation then, but you'll do it now when there's

207
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,200
Speaker 1: something you want to take place, right which should show

208
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: everybody how little these people actually care about you and

209
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,079
Speaker 1: your life and bettering your existence.

210
00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 2: This is all about them.

211
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: For the influencer people, it's about curring favor with Trump.

212
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 1: For the political people, We're going to talk about that

213
00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 1: in a little bit, Casey, because everybody has something to

214
00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,480
Speaker 1: gain out of this, and what they have to gain

215
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:05,440
