1 00:00:01,600 --> 00:00:02,719 Speaker 1: Hammer and Nigel. 2 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 2: Do you believe these characters are weirdos? 3 00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:10,360 Speaker 3: Oh my goodness, Hammer, we had some state House updates 4 00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 3: that have nothing to do with the redistricting. What I 5 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 3: can't get out of here talking about it for weeks. 6 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: Now, tell me what the Beckwi bill is. So it's not. 7 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:27,639 Speaker 2: Really called the Beckwi bill, but it kind of is. Right. 8 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: So think of it this way. 9 00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:33,319 Speaker 2: In the NFL, the Tuck rule it's also known as 10 00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 2: the Tom Brady rule from that controversial call. 11 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: In the football game in the snow Good analogy. 12 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,800 Speaker 2: So this new bill filed at the Indiana State House 13 00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:47,520 Speaker 2: and the House of Representatives would change the selection process 14 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,920 Speaker 2: for the way the state picks its lieutenant governor. Instead 15 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,200 Speaker 2: of having it go to the delegates who then get 16 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,720 Speaker 2: together at convention and do their process and pick the 17 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 2: lieutenant governor, it would basically just be the governor going, 18 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 2: here's my person. 19 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 1: Ah. So the person coming up with this bill doesn't 20 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 1: like Mica beck With. 21 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 2: Indiana State Rep. Danny Lopez is the man that is 22 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 2: behind this. He's a Republican from Carmel. I do not 23 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 2: know if he's got a good relationship with MIKEE. 24 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:17,560 Speaker 1: Beck With or not. 25 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 2: Just speculating maybe he's being pressured to put this out 26 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:23,840 Speaker 2: there from folks who do not have a good relationship 27 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 2: with the Lieutenant governor. But let's not get it twisted. 28 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 2: This is the Micah Beckwith Bill. 29 00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 3: Rob Kendall, hev Jamy Lopez's personal prideate cell phone number. 30 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 2: And again go back to the previous election year here 31 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 2: in Indiana, Governor Brown wanted somebody else. Governor Braun did 32 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 2: not want Micah beck With, but beck With he was a. 33 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 3: Barn storming, I mean, just kity in a city radio 34 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 3: station's TV Killer Ground Game, Great Ground Game. Overcame a 35 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 3: lot of odds and some of them went south. I 36 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 3: know there's you know, personal relationships were broken even within 37 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: this building. 38 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 1: I don't recall that the Rob Kendall rule. 39 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 3: There's several different nicknames for a situation surrounding. 40 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: My godness, I don't. 41 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 3: I don't have the animosity that a lot of people 42 00:02:20,919 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 3: do towards him, And I can understand why there's some 43 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 3: people that want to see It's like this is the 44 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 3: way it's been forever, and now all of a sudden, 45 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 3: they're changing their rules because Micah, because of this this 46 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 3: sort of thing, right because Mike is a rabble rouser. 47 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,280 Speaker 1: He's a bull and a china shop. 48 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and some would say he's full of bull something else. 49 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: So that's why it kind of scares a lot of 50 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 2: the old school Republican guard here in the state of Indiana. 51 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: Whatever. 52 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: That's House Bill ten twenty two, we're calling it the 53 00:02:54,600 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 2: Beckwith Bill. Also, Representative Andrew Ireland going to be on 54 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 2: our program here in just a little bit. He's pushing 55 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: forward with legislation that would allow judges and prosecutors to 56 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 2: be impeached. So if there's a judge or prosecutor that's 57 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 2: kind of gone rogue and you keep letting out violent 58 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 2: repeat offenders, one right after the other. Oh, I don't know. 59 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 2: Here's a hypothetical situation, nuge. Let's say you live in 60 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:31,800 Speaker 2: a county where, again hypothetical, your prosecutor acts more like 61 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 2: a defense attorney, and there's a guy that's been arrested 62 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 2: ninety nine times. Yeah, this piece of legislation, if it 63 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 2: makes its way through, would give the area in question 64 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: the ability to impeach said prosecutor. 65 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: Or just really to get rid of those guys. It's 66 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:55,080 Speaker 1: it's it's like it's more of a retaining process, like 67 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 1: we vote to retain this judge. 68 00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 3: Right, that's how it kind of works. You can't exactly 69 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 3: vote them out. We vote to retain. 70 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: Well, by the way, isn't Andrew Ireland? 71 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 2: Was it? 72 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 3: He the guy that went to the property tax rally 73 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 3: and Rod Bray was the Senate leader.

Really, 91 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 2: if the lethal injection cocktail drugs are unavailable, or if 92 00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:17,200 Speaker 2: you just want to save some money.

One more 113 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 2: note here before we move forward. I found this out yesterday. 114 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,559 Speaker 2: So remember when Donald Trump passed the big beautiful bill 115 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 2: right that was his signature piece of legislation. 116 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: It's big, and it's a bill. It's a bill. 117 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 2: There was the thing in there, a little caveat that 118 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 2: said no tax on overtime, no tax on tips. Well, 119 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people feel like because the big, 120 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 2: beautiful bill was ultimately passed, that's automatically in place. 121 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:52,479 Speaker 1: That's not. 122 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 2: According to the folks that I spoke with yesterday at 123 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 2: the Indiana State House, this has to be a state issue. 124 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:03,279 Speaker 2: So the Indiana Assembly has to move forward with making 125 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 2: this a thing. So if you worked a crap ton 126 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 2: of overtime, or you are scheduled to work a crap 127 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 2: ton of overtime coming up, you're not getting any extra 128 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 2: perk out of that. You're still paying the taxes on 129 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 2: it until the Indiana State House pushes that through as 130 00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,400 Speaker 2: an official bill. 131 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: What are they waiting for? Great question? I'm all for it. 132 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 1: I know Rob Kendall didn't like it. 133 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 2: Rob Kendle doesn't like anything, doesn't like Christmas, doesn't like 134 00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,880 Speaker 2: his family, doesn't like himself, doesn't like us. 135 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 3: But hey man, I'm all for the waiters and waitresses, 136 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 3: the servers to. 137 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: You know, what do they want to do? 138 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: No tax at all no tax, overtime, tips overtime. 139 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,120 Speaker 1: Love it, Sorry, I love it, man, I mean, get 140 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 1: you some. 141 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: But you gotta find a representative now that's willing to 142 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 2: put that out there and get the votes to get 143 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 2: that moving now. I think a lot of people will 144 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: be surprised to know that it's not, you know, a 145 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: law already, but just because Trump has got the big 146 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 2: beautiful bill passed through at the national level, has to 147 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,720 Speaker 2: go through the state level before it becomes something Hoosiers 148 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 2: can enjoy.
