At one point, he says government actually lies 46 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,919 Speaker 3: to us. So that coming from an active Cabinet member 47 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 3: is either the most honest thing a government official has 48 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 3: ever said, or it's the beginning of the most interesting 49 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 3: media empire in Washington. 50 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 4: Also on the way. 51 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 3: This morning, this is an embarrassing experience. 52 00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 2: Sometimes people complain about a lot of urgency, like they're 53 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 2: just interrupted by they're at work, they're out with friends, 54 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 2: and suddenly out of nowhere. They have to go to 55 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 2: the bat and they have to do it now. There 56 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,560 Speaker 2: are a lot of people. One out of seven people, Okay, 57 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 2: I want to just internalize this number. One out of 58 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,480 Speaker 2: seven people poop their pants regularly in America. 59 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 3: That's right, right, normalizing an experience that affects millions of 60 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 3: people want no shame, seven relatability. 61 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 4: One out of seven on a regular basis an accident 62 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 4: in their pants. 63 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: I can't wait to dig into that on this show. 64 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: That should be interesting. Wow. 65 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 3: Back to Governor Mike Braun's statement about gas taxes. He 66 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:10,919 Speaker 3: said he was suspending Anyanni's gas tax to provide Hoosier's 67 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,360 Speaker 3: relief from the pain at the pump from high gas prices. 68 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 3: He's calling on gasoline retailers to pass these savings directly 69 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 3: onto consumers, and they will be monitoring to ensure that 70 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 3: they do. He's also called on the Attorney General Todd 71 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 3: Roketa to enforced protections from price gouging by retailers. 72 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 4: I know you're going to hear. 73 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 3: People all morning long say it's about time or oh, 74 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 3: it's only seventeen cents. I'm going to go in the 75 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: opposite direction, and I'm going to say thumbs up. This 76 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:49,240 Speaker 3: is supposed to be how it works. They heard constituents 77 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:52,120 Speaker 3: complaining about the price, and they reacted. 78 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 1: I'll give Governor Braun a little bit of credit here. 79 00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: Now keep in mind, and we're going to do a 80 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: deep dive into this at ten o'clock with Dickey Kell 81 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: going toto a lot of the details on this, but 82 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 1: this is there are so many taxes as it relates 83 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: to gas, and this is just one of those taxes 84 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: that have been suspended. So let's break it down. There's 85 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: the federal gas tax that's not going anywhere. We're still 86 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: going to be paying that. There is the state of 87 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:20,800 Speaker 1: Indiana gas tax that is not going anywhere that today 88 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 1: is about thirty two cents a gallon, So that's a 89 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 1: ton that you're paying. This is the third tax that 90 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: you pay every single time you fill up at the pump, 91 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:34,440 Speaker 1: and this is the sales tax on the price of gas. 92 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: By the way, that is the smallest of all three 93 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 1: of the taxes. So you know, we got a little 94 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: bit here, but there's still a ton that we're paying. 95 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,320 Speaker 1: So be specific about this. This is the sales tax 96 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: associated when you purchase gas and fill up your gas tank. 97 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: So I will give Mike Brown a little bit of 98 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: credit here because it was four weeks ago that he 99 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: was asked about this by reporters. You know, prices of 100 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: gas have gone through the roof because of the military 101 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,719 Speaker 1: invasion in Iran. What are you going to do about, 102 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: a Governor Braun? And he said, you know what, give 103 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: me two or three weeks and if things don't settle down, 104 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: we'll take a look at it. 105 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 3: Hey, he said he was going to monitor this situation. 106 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 3: He monitored and he made a move. 107 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: So I give credit to him for actually following through 108 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: on something he said in public when reporters asked him 109 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: about it a month ago. However, it was Governor Mike 110 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: Braun who was in the legislature in twenty seventeen that 111 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: started this entire gas tax disaster that we're on right now. 112 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,480 Speaker 1: So it's difficult for me that when you know, keep 113 00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 1: in mind, casing, we do have the fifth highest gas 114 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: tax in the nation, the fifth high. Do you think 115 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: we have the fifth best roads in the nation to 116 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 1: feel like that? You no, I do. You and I 117 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: were just took a trip where we drove to the 118 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: East coast and we drove back and you can tell 119 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 1: where the Ohio Indiana border is. I don't need to. 120 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 1: I don't need like some sort of line in the road. 121 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: I don't need a sign that says welcome to Indiana. 122 00:05:57,240 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: I feel it as my bones shake, because the road 123 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: immediately changes Ohio roads pretty decent. The minute you cross 124 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: that Indiana state line. It is an absolute dumpster fire 125 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: on I seventy, So I have to I like to 126 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: drink coffee when I drive. I think that's common. Everybody 127 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: has a beverage when they're driving. You gotta be carefully 128 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: you don't spill it on yourself. It's worse than that. 129 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: I have to plan my beverage consumption like hours in advance. 130 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 1: I have when I'm driving west through Ohio on my 131 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: way to Indiana, i' to be like, Okay, I've got 132 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 1: this much coffee left, and I've got ten more miles 133 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: left in the state of Ohio, because I know that 134 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: once I hit the end of the Indiana state line, 135 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: you can't drink anything or else you'll be wearing it. 136 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,760 Speaker 1: So that's that's part of the problem here is is 137 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 1: that we're paying the fifth highest gas tax in the 138 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 1: nation and we're not getting the value out of it 139 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: on our road. So it's tough for me to give. 140 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 1: You know, Governor Brawn a whole lot of credit on 141 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 1: this because he was part of the problem. He voted 142 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 1: for this in twenty seventeen that got us to this situation. 143 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 1: But I will give him credit for following up on 144 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: what he said he would do four weeks ago when 145 00:06:59,440 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: he was asked. 146 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 4: So I will be the positive one. 147 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:05,000 Speaker 3: This morning, Braun heard from ten Republican senators and the 148 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 3: people at the pump, and then he responded, that's actually 149 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 3: how representative government is supposed to work. Constituents complain, Legislators 150 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: act executive response. 151 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 4: Now, I know it's only for thirty days. It's a small. 152 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 3: Relief, but it's not a lot, but it is something. Now, again, 153 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,559 Speaker 3: this isn't going to be a permanent fix. A thirty 154 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 3: day suspension does say to me, we see you and 155 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 3: we're trying, and that is what actually matters. 156 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: You do, agreed, because you know what, usually what we 157 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: get from the lawman is nothing. 158 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 3: What did you get from Holcombe back in twenty two 159 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 3: the price was higher than it is now, and what 160 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 3: did he do? 161 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 4: Nothing? 162 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: Oh? Right, right, So that tells me. 163 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 3: That Governor Mike Brown loves you a little bit more 164 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 3: than Eric kolkommitted. 165 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: That's a pretty low bar, pretty low bar, but he 166 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: did achieve that. No, I will governor Brown credit and 167 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 1: it is better because what we usually hear from the 168 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: Republicans in the States is sorry, deal with it, or 169 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 1: you know what, We're going to form a committee and 170 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: will investigate. Hey, you know you know what I need. 171 00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 1: We need to spend twenty million dollars to study the situation. 172 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about it. We're we're going to 173 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 1: have a meeting where all we talk about is planning 174 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 1: the next meeting. That's usually what we get. So you're right, Okay, fine, 175 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 1: I'll give Braun a little bit. You convinced me. I'll 176 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 1: get Braun a little bit more credit than I was 177 00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: initially because this is actually concrete, you know, moves in 178 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 1: the right direction that you know, starting immediately, people are 179 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: going to see a difference. 180 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 3: So you've got Indiana State Rep. Greg Porter from Indianapolis 181 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:48,480 Speaker 3: saying that the gas tax suspension is a mostly political 182 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 3: posturing move, and I think a lot of people would 183 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 3: agree with that as well, because it is for thirty days, 184 00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 3: which gets us right up to May well, here is, 185 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 3: and you got it. I think if they can do 186 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 3: it now, they could have done it all along. 187 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, and here's the specific issue. I've got with Representative 188 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 1: Greg Porter on this. Now, I couldn't find anything recently 189 00:09:11,280 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: with him talking about the gas tax, but he did 190 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 1: find something from twenty twenty two. In fact, I'm looking 191 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: right now at an Indiana Democrat press release that they 192 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,839 Speaker 1: send out on June twenty two and said, quote the 193 00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: Indiana Democrat Party, By the way, these are their words, 194 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: not mine. The Organization that Advocates for the Future of 195 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 1: Indiana and its Families today joined state Representatives Terry Austin, 196 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: Renee Pek, and Greg Porter in calling on Governor Eric 197 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 1: Holcombe to suspend the gas tax. So in twenty twenty two, 198 00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 1: he was all about it. He was like, we got 199 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: to suspend this gas tax. We gotta do this, we 200 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,439 Speaker 1: gotta suspend this wasn't political posturing then and now in 201 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: the twenty tenty six and once Governor Brown actually does it, 202 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 1: he comes out and says, oh, this is just political posturing. 203 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 1: So it's like he's I'm going to give the Indiana 204 00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 1: Democrats a little bit of free advice, which may be 205 00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: worth exactly what they're paying for. But what and if 206 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: Greg Porter is doing is the way politics was done 207 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 1: in the eighties and nineties. You just attack your opponent. 208 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: Your attack your opponent, and that's clearly not working for 209 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,400 Speaker 1: most Americans these days. Why couldn't he have said, you 210 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: know what, I supported this in two thousand and two, 211 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,440 Speaker 1: and Governor Holki in twenty twenty two, and Governor Holcom 212 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 1: did nothing, and I supported this today, and I will 213 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,440 Speaker 1: give Mike Broun credit for that today because Greg Porter 214 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 1: then went on to talk about all the ridiculous spending 215 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: that the Republicans are doing in the legislature, and I 216 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 1: agree with him totally on that. He hit Braun on 217 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 1: his taxpayer funded helicopter that he takes back and forth 218 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: to the state. 219 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 4: He mentioned the state's corridor project. 220 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 6: All fair game, But for a guy that just a 221 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,559 Speaker 6: few years ago was calling for this sort of gas 222 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 6: tax relief to then turn around today and the first 223 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,800 Speaker 6: words out of his mouth or it's political posturing. 224 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 1: No, no, no, what you're doing is political posturing in the 225 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 1: worst kind of way. Give Braad at least a little 226 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,320 Speaker 1: bit of credit, then hammer him on his taxpayer funded 227 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: helicopter that he uses. 228 00:10:56,720 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 3: It is pretty rich calling it political posturing. Come from 229 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 3: a party that shut down the government for over forty 230 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 3: days while their members vacation in Scotland. 231 00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 4: You know, so which which way you're going to go? 232 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 3: You also had another Democrat, Carrie Hamilton, saying Republicans are 233 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 3: cleaning up their own making. So how much are Hoosier 234 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 3: is actually going to save this from braun watching? 235 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 1: Could you talk about the cost savings that they could 236 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 1: see in the plump well gimber tank could be up. 237 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:32,599 Speaker 6: To fifty million dollars per month, per thirty. 238 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:37,360 Speaker 3: Days, fifty million dollars, So a buck or two here 239 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 3: and there by you adds up to fifty million dollars 240 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 3: for the state of Indiana. 241 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: It's a big deal. We know that Hoosiers are struggling. 242 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: They're struggling just to pay their bills, their grocery bills, 243 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 1: their rent, their property taxes, their electric bill. Every little 244 00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: bit will help and we will take this to the bank. 245 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 1: And that's another thing I mean. Unfortunately, I'll go back 246 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 1: to what Greg Porter said, calling this political posturing. We 247 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 1: just heard when just a couple of minutes ago, you 248 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,760 Speaker 1: played some audio from some average everyday hoosiers that were like, yeah, 249 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: Dona know this is good. I drive a lot, I 250 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 1: pay a lot of money and gas. I'm going to 251 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 1: use this right now. That's not political posturing. Putting extra 252 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: money inside the pockets of hoosiers immediately, even if it's 253 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 1: only for thirty days, is not political posturing. It's helping 254 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 1: people who are really, really struggling. 255 00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 3: So wibc's Ryan Hendrick doing some real journalism that matters 256 00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 3: going to the pump and actually asking hoosiers and talking 257 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 3: to people, and we'll hear more from you coming up 258 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 3: on ninety three.
