1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,480 Speaker 1: Okay, So there was a major shake up in the 2 00:00:02,480 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: hog Set administration yesterday. I anybody saw it coming, and 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,960 Speaker 1: we got to try to make some sense of it 4 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,360 Speaker 1: because logic doesn't really seem to work out here. It's 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 1: Kenell and Casey show. I'm Rob Casey's out, Ethan Hatcher 6 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:19,119 Speaker 1: in for in Casey. So, Chris Bailey, who is the 7 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: Chief of Police IMPD Chief of Police, was appointed yesterday 8 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: as the chief Deputy Mayor and chief of staff for 9 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: Joe hog Set, the mayor of the City of Indianapolis. 10 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,199 Speaker 1: He will begin that position in early February, and then 11 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: hog Set will then have to point a new IMPD. 12 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 2: Police chief. 13 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,919 Speaker 1: This doesn't make any sense to me for a variety 14 00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: of reasons. First and foremost, Bailey's a pretty respected guy. 15 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: He's pretty safe in the job he's in now. And 16 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: what rational person would go to work for that dumpster fire, 17 00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: not just have a mayor, but as a human being. 18 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 2: Joe hog Set, why would he do that? 19 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 3: Well in the middle of you know, the height of 20 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,399 Speaker 3: Joe hawk Set scandal as well. I mean, you're talking 21 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,399 Speaker 3: about failure on multiple levels, whether it's whether he didn't 22 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 3: show up during the riots in Summer of Love or, 23 00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 3: of course, most recently, the sexual harassment scandal. It just 24 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 3: seems like a perplexing time to join administration that is 25 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 3: seemingly on flames, and you're also. 26 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:31,319 Speaker 1: On borrowed time. This is the other thing that doesn't 27 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: make any sense. And I think as people talking because 28 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: the hog set has espoused he's not running for a 29 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: fourth term. Well, if that were true, the mayor's election 30 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: is next year, which essentially, unless you're feeling very strongly 31 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: that whoever wins is going to keep you in that position, 32 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,560 Speaker 1: which is very rare, even if it's of the same party, 33 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 1: you've now put yourself on borrowed time and your meal ticket. 34 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: Is this just complete despised joke, dumpster fire of a 35 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: mayor in human Joe hog set, which has a lot 36 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,120 Speaker 1: of people thinking. And this is sort of where the 37 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: juicy part of it is. Because Bailey's not a stupid guy, 38 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: that one of two things is in play here, and 39 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 1: I think they're logical conclusions that many people are coming to. 40 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: Doesn't mean this is true, but I think it's the 41 00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: rational thought is either Bailey himself may be running for 42 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,800 Speaker 1: mayor or, and I think this is the most logical 43 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: hawk Set is going to backpedal and is going to 44 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: give it a fourth. 45 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 2: Term or try to give it a fourth term. 46 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:30,080 Speaker 3: And isn't that an indictment of the political climate here 47 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 3: in Indianapolis that Joe hawk Set would even be electable 48 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 3: after a fourth term after multiple of his own city 49 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:39,239 Speaker 3: council members have condemned him and condemned the action surrounding 50 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 3: the Thomas Carl Cook scandal unfolding in the city County building. 51 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 3: It's it's absurd to think that he could run a 52 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 3: successful fourth term campaign, but I believe he could, especially 53 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 3: with the state of the straight ticket voting well. 54 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 1: And so it comes to the primary, right, And you 55 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 1: and I have talked about this the fact before the 56 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: hammer and I've talked about this, the fascinating almost subservience 57 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,399 Speaker 1: or deference to Joe hog seat. 58 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: Look if he were some you know. 59 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:14,119 Speaker 1: Hut nut style, you know, beloved mayor, then okay, but 60 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: the guy, everybody knows what he is. Look at the city, 61 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 1: look at the results or lack thereof, in the in 62 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: the now eleven years going on eleven years that he 63 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: has been he was elected what in fifteen, So yeah, 64 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: that he has been the mayor of the city of Indianapolis. 65 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:31,120 Speaker 1: There's nothing that you look at the city and go, wow, 66 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: thank god Joe was there. Well, let's get a statue 67 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 1: up for him. Boy, he really made a positive difference. 68 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: He seemed to be a guy who, especially for some reason, 69 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: nobody will take the gloves off that he's that he's 70 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: you know, could potentially be running against and start saying 71 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: the obvious of the guy totally disappeared during the riots. 72 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: It's there are many allegations of where he was and 73 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: what he was doing. He has no coherent answer for 74 00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: where he was, nor he's he ever provided one. 75 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 2: Nor are people asking him about well that more. But 76 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 2: this is my point. 77 00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: Every story Hog sets simply just hides from it, and 78 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 1: for some reason the collective media in the city lets 79 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: it just go away. Now the Thomas Carl Cook may 80 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: come back up in the sense of clearly the Marrion 81 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: County Prosecutor's office is looking into it via grand jury. 82 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 1: That story came out in the Indie Star earlier in 83 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,359 Speaker 1: the week. But by and large, the media just lets 84 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: these things go and Hogg sitientially becomes a survivor character 85 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,799 Speaker 1: about went out last out play and he keeps getting 86 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: away with all this stuff. 87 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,760 Speaker 3: Well, he's also going to use the findings of the 88 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 3: Fisher Law firm investigation into the actions of the city, 89 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 3: and they said that the city performed in a legal 90 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 3: manner and there were you know, there's obviously room for improvement, 91 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 3: but otherwise not the fault of the leadership in the 92 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 3: city of Indianapolis. So he can just wash his hands 93 00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:52,279 Speaker 3: of the scandal and walk away. 94 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:55,160 Speaker 1: Well, and again, I don't think Chris Bailey's sort of 95 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: a would run from maybe is maybe he will, don't know, 96 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: But I think the more the more logical direction people 97 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: are looking in is this could be a precursor because 98 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: let's face it, who at Joe hog Seat change is going. 99 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 2: To hire him for anything? Sure? 100 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 1: Who looks at hog set and is like, again, if 101 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: he were some beloved Greg Ballard type character, you'd say, Okay, 102 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: I can see him going to work in a private sector, 103 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: some firm whatever. 104 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 2: But this guy has no juice, this guy has. 105 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: No oh man of hogs that we're in here, we'd 106 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: steamroll the competition. 107 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,919 Speaker 2: Like the guy's basically unhireable. 108 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 1: And so I think that a lot of people now 109 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: are saying we should probably get ready for the idea 110 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,280 Speaker 1: of Joe hogg Set seeking a fourth term, and if 111 00:05:37,279 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: that happens, the intrigue will be will guys like vop Osley, 112 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: who has taken a back seat to a hog Set, 113 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: Will people like Ryan Meure. So I think people the 114 00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: Mary Katy prosecutor, who people think are is pretty politically astute, 115 00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: if they're gonna get in, if they're indeed gonna say 116 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm done taking a back seat to you, are they 117 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: gonna have the guts which you'll have to do to defeat, 118 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,040 Speaker 1: to call out the stuff that everybody knows is going on, 119 00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 1: but nobody will say out loud, at least in the 120 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,559 Speaker 1: the you know, in the political establishment orbit of Marion County. 121 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 3: So with the regarding the appointment of Chris Bailey, you're 122 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 3: essentially this saying that this all boils down to one 123 00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 3: of two possibilities, and both of them are centered around 124 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 3: job stability. Either Chris Bailey is going to make his 125 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 3: own bid for campaign at the mayor's office and I 126 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 3: don't think that Joe Joe Hogseet would step aside. Or 127 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 3: he's looking for job stability by staying with the administration 128 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 3: through a fourth or you know, possibly fifth term. 129 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 2: All right, we'll see what happens. Okay, so let's get 130 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:35,680 Speaker 2: to some audio here. 131 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: The Democrats continue to do Democrat stuff, which is to 132 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, to take when 133 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 1: the country is maybe being not pleased with the direction 134 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: under President Trump as it relates to inflation, the cost 135 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,000 Speaker 1: of everything, affordability, whatever word do you want to use, 136 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: and some optimism in the Democrat Party. And then they're like, nah, 137 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: we want to remind everybody how extreme and nutty we are. 138 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 1: And this Minnesota stuff, whether it's the fraud or now 139 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,880 Speaker 1: this Ice involved shooting that took place, they are taking 140 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: this totally radical outside the mainstream position that Ice is 141 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,240 Speaker 1: the bad. 142 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 2: Guy, that they're murderers. 143 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: And so this is Democrat Representative Seth Moulton where he 144 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 1: just flat out says, well, hey, I haven't really interviewed anybody. 145 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 1: I don't mean any more information than everybody else does, 146 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: but I know that Ice agent he's a murderer. 147 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 4: Have you interviewed any talking Have you interviewed any witnesses 148 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 4: on the ground in Minneapolis? 149 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 5: Have you interviewed any eyewitnesses? 150 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 6: Have I personally interviewed them? 151 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 2: No, that's not my job. 152 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,680 Speaker 6: My job is to speak truth to power. 153 00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 2: It's really look video, I see murder, and so you 154 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: call it that if that's what happened.

I mean, let's 211 00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 7: be clear, if you see, like what is happening in 212 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 7: the streets of Minnesota, you've seen what's happened in the 213 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 7: streets of Los Angeles and Chicago, that these masked agents, 214 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 7: who are you know, detaining people at elementary school right graduations, 215 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 7: Who are you know, detaining American citizens who are carrying 216 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:33,319 Speaker 7: their passports. We have to absolutely start over with this agency. 217 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:38,439 Speaker 7: And frankly Christinome and you know, leadership of ICE should 218 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,480 Speaker 7: be dragged in front of Congress. And let's be clear, 219 00:10:41,840 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 7: how they are acting right now is unconstitutional. So should 220 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 7: we throw out this current model of ICE? 221 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely yes, that that's the number two person in the 222 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:55,359 Speaker 1: state of Minnesota. 223 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:56,840 Speaker 2: And we all know who the number one guy is 224 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 2: Tim Walls. 225 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,560 Speaker 3: Oh No, I totally buy it, especially because I saw 226 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 3: her cause playing the Handmaid's Tale just the other day 227 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 3: when she appeared at the Somali Mosque to apologize for 228 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 3: the federal and government and investigating the vast quantity of 229 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 3: fraud being committed in that community. And when I say 230 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 3: she was cosplaying as the Handmaid's Tale, I mean that 231 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,680 Speaker 3: is she Peggy Flanagan, the Lieutenant governor of the state 232 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 3: of Minnesota, a white woman, dressed up in a he 233 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 3: jab or a burca to demonstrate her solidarity with the 234 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 3: Somali community. 235 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 2: So she is doing the thing. 236 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 3: She is literally re enacting the Handmaid's Tale, when that's 237 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 3: what they accuse the right of wanting to. 238 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 2: Force upon people.

You know, We've got thousands of officers there 244 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: and I'm not opposed to sending more if necessary to 245 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: keep people safe. 246 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:55,080 Speaker 2: Fantastic. 247 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,080 Speaker 1: I love that, and I think they have learned from COVID. 248 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 1: I think they learned from the race rights. I think 249 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 1: they learned from the BLN stuff. I think they learned 250 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: you cannot work with these people. You cannot placate them. 251 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 1: They're awful, rotten people who are stuck, dead set on 252 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 1: destruction of society, and you have to confront them head on. 253 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: And I think they are doing a much better job 254 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,319 Speaker 1: this time with it than the Trump administration did during 255 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:21,560 Speaker 1: twenty twenty.

Just the left the oversight hearing on Minnesota. 267 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,760 Speaker 8: I mean, this thing is crazy. You have the governor 268 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 8: and his team going after whistleblowers, you know, state employees 269 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,440 Speaker 8: trying to do the right thing in Minnesota to explain 270 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 8: the fraud that was happening, to get it under control. 271 00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:13,840 Speaker 8: And it looks like Governor Wallas, a lieutenant governor, the 272 00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 8: Attorney General Keith Ellison, not only did they know about it, 273 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 8: they were trying to protect the fraud to continue. These 274 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 8: fraudss were donating campaign cash to the governor and the 275 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 8: Attorney general. The whistleblowers who were coming forward were threatened, 276 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 8: their jobs were threatened, their careers were threatened. And then 277 00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 8: then we find out that the frauds were buying property 278 00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 8: in Kenya and Turkey, sending money back to Somalia. The 279 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 8: money going back to Somalia could potentially have fallen into 280 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 8: the hands of al Shabab, the al Qaeda affiliates in Somalia. 281 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 8: Absolute crazy stuff. 282 00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, if you think nine billion was going to daycare 283 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 1: as your dreaming, well, And. 284 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:02,280 Speaker 3: I also liked that Scott the SA, the Treasury Department Secretary, 285 00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 3: is now moving against sending out these funds to foreign countries. 286 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 3: If you are on public assistance, why would you be 287 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 3: sending your assistance money overseas if you truly needed it? 288 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 3: To begin with, that's unacceptable if we are supporting what 289 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 3: amounts to foreign countries. 290 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: Well, and it goes back to these ideas what they 291 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,440 Speaker 1: call block grants, right, and many people have been proponents 292 00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 1: of this for years, where the federal government just gives 293 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: the money to the states and the states then divvy 294 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,200 Speaker 1: it up, which on its surface, right, you would say like, okay, well, 295 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: the states know their needs, it'd be better for them 296 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: to spend it. But it doesn't account for things like this, 297 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 1: in which you've essentially got giant money laundering schemes going on. 298 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: But is it really all that different than what we 299 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 1: did with Ukraine? Like there were so many Republicans who 300 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 1: supported Ukraine, and how much of that money hasn't been determined? 301 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: Like the FTX guy, the cryptoscam guy that ended up 302 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: with you know, hundreds of millions of dollars, isn't he 303 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: in prison? 304 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: Now? 305 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 1: All that money ended up in back in the hands 306 00:14:56,240 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: of Democrat campaign conference. Like it's so easy Republicans to 307 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 1: look at this and go, well, Minnesota, it's run by 308 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,240 Speaker 1: a bunch of Democrats. Yeah, but we support stuff all 309 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,360 Speaker 1: the time, or we vote for politicians all the time. 310 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 1: We do will Republicans do this stuff too. I think 311 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: it's I think you're totally missing the ability to solve 312 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: the problem when you just get focused on we'll look 313 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: at that state with their liberal governor and what they did, 314 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 1: there's a good chance your government in your state, even 315 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,320 Speaker 1: if it's read I mean the Mississippi Tate with the 316 00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:25,000 Speaker 1: welfare fraud that's going on there. 317 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 2: And isn't the or what's going on with a Midwest 318 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: corridor for that matter. 319 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,480 Speaker 1: Well, this is my point, right, and until we get 320 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: past the idea of well it's that state, No, it's 321 00:15:33,720 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 1: every state. It may be a different thing, it may 322 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: be more in some places than others. But until you're 323 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 1: willing to check yourself and look in the mirror and go, 324 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: it's happening where I'm at too, we're not gonna solve 325 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:44,800 Speaker 1: the problem. 326 00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 3: Part of the issue with giving unfettered, unrestricted oversight of 327 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:52,080 Speaker 3: these monetary funds to the states, which in theory sounds 328 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 3: like a great idea because, like you said, there is 329 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 3: more oversight, there is more engagement with the local community, 330 00:15:58,200 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 3: and they're going to know how to distribute that funding better. 331 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 3: But it overlooks the possibility that we have seen in Minnesota, 332 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 3: where there is either outright willful disengagement with what is 333 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,120 Speaker 3: happening to the funds that are being distributed, or and 334 00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 3: is much more likely, there is outright complicity and participation 335 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 3: in the fraud for personal benefit. And that's something I mean, 336 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 3: how do you institute checks and balances that would begin 337 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 3: to address that? 338 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 6: All? 339 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 5: Right? 340 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 1: Now, this will never happen, because this never does happen. 341 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: But US Rep. Lisa McClain Republican here, she says, the 342 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 1: House Ethan is going to hold Tim Walls accountable. Now again, 343 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,840 Speaker 1: there's zero chance this happens because nobody ever gets held accountable, 344 00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 1: but the Republicans are talking tough. 345 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 9: Democrats took money from our kids. Democrats took money from 346 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 9: your kids, the kids who need it most, dumped it 347 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 9: into fraudulent daycare facilities, and turn to the other way 348 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 9: when this abuse was reported. This has been their pattern. 349 00:16:56,800 --> 00:17:01,480 Speaker 9: So this really shouldn't surprise anybody. But what's happening there 350 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:05,600 Speaker 9: is absolutely disgusting. Tim Waltz can announce that he won't 351 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 9: run again for governor. 352 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 5: But he will still be. 353 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 9: Held accountable by House Republicans, and that's exactly what we're 354 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 9: doing this week in the old House Oversight Committee. 355 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 2: Didn't we hear the same thing with Hunter Biden, with 356 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 2: Joe Biden. Yeah, very true. 357 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,040 Speaker 1: The Republicans ever hold anyone accountable for anything. And by 358 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: the way, lady, you and the Republicans gave Minnesota this money. 359 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: A lot of this money emanated out of the COVID 360 00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 1: fraud that President Donald Trump and a Republican controlled Senate 361 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: voted to send to the people. They always act like 362 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 1: the Republicans always act like they're innocent victims in all 363 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: of this, when the reality is, if you hadn't sent 364 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: them the money, they wouldn't be able to commit the fraud. 365 00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: So you need to check yourself. You need to look 366 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,480 Speaker 1: at the mirror and say, we're responsible for this too, 367 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,199 Speaker 1: because clearly we didn't have any oversight on it. It 368 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 1: took this YouTube guy Nick Nick Shirley is his name, right. 369 00:17:58,800 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 2: To go out and expose this to them. 370 00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 1: I always just, I am just, I am I disdain 371 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: the phony moral high horse that these Republicans sit on 372 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: when they are as much a part of the problem 373 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: as the people that are committing the bad acts or 374 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 1: do or doing the thing. 375 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 6: Well. 376 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 3: Also, let's modulate this a bit, rob because of course 377 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 3: they were the start of the problem. Granted, the COVID 378 00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:23,679 Speaker 3: giveaways began in the Trump administration, but they were greatly 379 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 3: expanded and accelerated in the Biden administration, and that I 380 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 3: think is the genesis of most of our serious problems 381 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 3: across the country today. So I mean repub but that 382 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 3: is to say Republicans hands certainly aren't clean in this 383 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 3: issue either. 384 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 1: All right, let's take a break when we come back. 385 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,719 Speaker 1: This may be, and this is sayings. I think if 386 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: you've listened to the show for nine years, this may 387 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 1: be the most ridiculous, egregious act of government I've ever seen. 388 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: A local elected official has essentially been locked out of 389 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: town hall because he did an interview in the town 390 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: hall about immense public importance, and his colleagues are mad 391 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 1: because he's getting tracks on an issue they don't like. Yeah, 392 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: that's the guy can't go in the town hall he governs. 393 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 1: We'll talk about it coming up next, Kennel The Casey Show. 394 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 2: Ninety three WIBC. 395 00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 1: He's an elected official who's trying to give his constituents 396 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 1: a voice in an important matter, and as a result, 397 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:29,520 Speaker 1: his colleagues essentially locked him out of town Hall. Yeah, 398 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,959 Speaker 1: it's as crazy as it sounds. Let's get into it. 399 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: Ninety three WIBC. It's the Kendall and Casey Show join 400 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 1: in studio by Brownsburg Town Councilman Glenn Adams. 401 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 2: Now, yeah, I didn't stutter. 402 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 1: The guy has been essentially locked out of town hall 403 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: by his fellow elected officials and the town manager. Now, Glenn, 404 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 1: before we get into all of this, it relates to 405 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 1: your push. Very popular in town right now based on 406 00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: the events you've had, the amount of people have come 407 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 1: out to move Brownsburg or at least give the people 408 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 1: the right to choose. Brownsburg wants to become a city, 409 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 1: and the city initiative you're pushing has done very well 410 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 1: thus far. 411 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,399 Speaker 6: It is going quite well. You know. 412 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 10: We did this very quietly in December with Christmas in 413 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 10: New Year's and people were on vacation, and now it's 414 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 10: kind of taken on a life of its own. It 415 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 10: has legs, it has momentum that has enthusiasm, and people 416 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:23,879 Speaker 10: are very excited about it. 417 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 1: Okay, And I think it's very portant to point out 418 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:28,560 Speaker 1: that because look, I think this is going to start 419 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: happening all across Central Indiana's these communities continue to thrive. 420 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 2: Browns were kind of leading this right now, but. 421 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: I think these other communities are going to eventually come 422 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: to this as you have these population explosions. But I 423 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 1: think it's important to point out that when you're doing 424 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: the city drive, there's. 425 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 2: Nothing political about it. 426 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 1: Democrats can sign it, Republicans can sign it, Libertarians. 427 00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 2: Can sign it. 428 00:20:47,760 --> 00:20:51,399 Speaker 1: Apathetic politically apathetic people can sign it. Anybody in the 429 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: community is It's a non political act. 430 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 10: Absolutely, this is you know, I decided to lead the 431 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:03,160 Speaker 10: charge here and this has nothing to do with politics. 432 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 10: This is just giving a voice, a bigger voice, to 433 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 10: the Brownsburg residents, and they certainly want it, and they 434 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 10: deserve it, and they deserve to chart their own future. 435 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,440 Speaker 10: And if they want to be a city, they have 436 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:18,639 Speaker 10: the opportunity to do that. If they want things to 437 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,720 Speaker 10: remain the same, well they can do that too. 438 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: Glen Adams or the Brownsborthtown Council is our guests. We're 439 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: about to talk about what happened to him last night. 440 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,719 Speaker 1: It may be the most I mean, congratulations, I've been 441 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,400 Speaker 1: at this nine years. This may be the most egregious 442 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: governmental action I've ever heard. But before we get to that. 443 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,160 Speaker 1: As I mentioned, you've gotten quite a bit of publicity. See, 444 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: hanging out with me has its advantages. And in fact, yesterday, 445 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,479 Speaker 1: I mean a lot of people are covering this. This 446 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 1: is very interesting. It's of the public interest right right, 447 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 1: And yesterday our news gathering partners at WISH TV did 448 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 1: a big expose on you and this this city initiative. 449 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:53,919 Speaker 6: They did it was great. 450 00:21:55,600 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 10: So I invited the reporter Malia to town hall and 451 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 10: we did the interview in the council room. Again, this 452 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 10: is not political. This is myself, as a sitting elected 453 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 10: town council member, promoting a possible referendum that's right in November. 454 00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 10: Not unlike our past council president Travis to Shane did 455 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 10: with the tash Mahalal aquatic pool. 456 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 1: Well, yes, so he gave the we call him Lord 457 00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: Travis on this Lord Travis, and Lord Travis did. He's 458 00:22:34,359 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 1: the guy, of course who tried to weaponize the police 459 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 1: on me at the meeting that one time for asking 460 00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: you were there, you were there for out things, get 461 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: on the agenda. Yes, but he did the same thing 462 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 1: you did. You told the reporter, you said, hey, this 463 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 1: is a matter of public interest. I'm on the council. 464 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:51,400 Speaker 1: I'm leading this initiative. Please come to the town hall. 465 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 1: I'll be happy to talk with you about it. That 466 00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: sort of makes sense. There's a track record of people 467 00:22:56,760 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 1: doing this with reporters. And then before the meeting you 468 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: were called into the back room. 469 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 10: No, this was after the meeting. Okay, so we had 470 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 10: a council meeting last night. Let me just say that. 471 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 1: Well, they shot you in the back after the meeting, 472 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 1: after it because they didn't want you to address it 473 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:16,560 Speaker 1: while the meeting was going on. 474 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:17,480 Speaker 2: And that's even better. 475 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 10: Yes, so you know, just to say real, real quick. 476 00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:26,120 Speaker 10: The interview was great. It was basic questioning why does 477 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 10: this matter to you? Why do you think this is 478 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:33,120 Speaker 10: good for the town? Was the process everyone's seen. 479 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:34,680 Speaker 2: This wasn't some campaign event. 480 00:23:35,920 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 10: I didn't solicit anything. I just answered questions and they 481 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,520 Speaker 10: were very non political. Now, we had a council meeting. 482 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 10: I have a regular business meeting last night. 483 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 1: Nobody said anything to you before the meeting.

And that's how I 486 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 10: knew something was wrong. Because these people who I usually 487 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 10: say hi to each individual person, there might be some handshakes, 488 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,679 Speaker 10: there might be some pleasantries exchanged. Nobody would look me 489 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 10: in the eye, nobody spoke to me. I'm like, all right, 490 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 10: these government people. 491 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:09,879 Speaker 2: And we talk about this all the time in this program, they. 492 00:24:09,760 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 1: Are the biggest gutless, spineless, weasel cowards imaginable. And it's 493 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 1: clear now this is even better. They didn't want you 494 00:24:18,720 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: saying something publicly about it. So meeting, it's a quick 495 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 1: meeting thing wraps up what happens next. 496 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 10: So we signed the paperwork.

Because I want 505 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 1: to point out when I'm about to tell people what 506 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,439 Speaker 1: they did to you, these are the people that are 507 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: sitting in judgment of you.
