Donald 4 00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: Trump was on offense. He was goading the Dems, but 5 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 2: he was also specific at times. He talked about what 6 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,880 Speaker 2: he's done, he talked about what he wants to do. 7 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 2: He had a solid message for the base.

Did he rock you last night with 25 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 2: the State of the Union address? It really wasn't meant 26 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 2: to persuade the other party anymore. I mean, it's meant 27 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 2: to energize your own side. That's what the State of 28 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: the Union address is. 29 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 4: Nobody, no politician puts on a better show than Donald Trump. 30 00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 4: He was last night peak Donald Trump.

He welcomed all sorts of guests. 34 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 4: He made fun of the Democrats. He was shouting back 35 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 4: and forth in front of him. He talked about his accomplishments. 36 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 4: He rolled out some new initiatives that are. 37 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 5: Going to take place. 38 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 4: He is a performer and he and he performed. He 39 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,040 Speaker 4: loves it because the whole world while watches the United States, 40 00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 4: literally the whole world is watching the All eyes are 41 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 4: on Trump, and he's got the microphone and nobody can take. 42 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 5: It from him. 43 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 6: I don't know if you notice. 44 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: At one point his microphone was over modulated because he 45 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 2: was so excited. 46 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 6: We'll get to that later on. 47 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 5: I did. He was getting some distortion on the my life. 48 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:50,519 Speaker 2: But he energizing the bass, creating some shareable moments, also 49 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 2: defining the news cycle. And that's what happened. The opposition's 50 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 2: party rebuttal. It felt like a parallel universe version of 51 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,640 Speaker 2: the same country. I mean, I don't know if you 52 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: caught it, but they had dancing frogs at their Democrat 53 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 2: party what they were doing. Most Americans, of course, experienced 54 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 2: the State of the Union address through twenty second clips 55 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 2: optimized by social media.

It was like, Erica Kirk, 66 00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 4: come on down, you're the next contestant on the state 67 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 4: of the US men's hockey team, Come on down, what 68 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 4: next contestant on my State of the Union. 69 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 2: He he did talk about the economy a lot. That's 70 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: what people wanted to hear, and many people were saying, 71 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 2: I wanted him to talk about that more. I wanted 72 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: him to talk about that the whole time. He did 73 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: mention it quite a bit. He said, it's we're experiencing 74 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,839 Speaker 2: a turnaround for the ages. 75 00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 6: We have a roaring economy. 76 00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:25,279 Speaker 2: He mentioned gasoline being below two dollars and thirty cents 77 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 2: in some states. 78 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,040 Speaker 6: He mentioned Iowa specifically. 79 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 4: What states are is it below two dollars in thirty 80 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,040 Speaker 4: he mentioned Iowa. Well, it's definitely not the case here 81 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:33,840 Speaker 4: in Indiana. 82 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 2: He said the stock market hit a fifty three all 83 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 2: time record high in one year. Fifty three all time 84 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 2: records in one year. He said that we secured eighteen 85 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 2: trillion from all over the globe. He called us the 86 00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 2: hottest country anywhere in the world, seventy thousand new construction jobs. 87 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 6: He said oil production. 88 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 2: Is up by more than six hundred thousand barrels a 89 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: day and that we received eighty million bears of oil 90 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: from Venice and that we have more working Americans than 91 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 2: any time in history. He also said the average four 92 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: oh one k is up thirty thousand dollars and that 93 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 2: we lifted two point four million Americans off of food stamps. 94 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 6: Now is all of that true, I don't know. 95 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 2: Maybe it's true, could be true, possibly true, Probably true. 96 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 5: Yeah. 97 00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 4: Look, Trump has to do a little dancing when it 98 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 4: comes to the economy because we've got right now what 99 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 4: we've talked about, and that is the K shaped recovery. 100 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 4: If you think of a capital K, there's two lines 101 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 4: sticking out and one is going up and one is 102 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 4: going down. And for some people in this country things 103 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 4: are great, and other people in this country, a lot 104 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 4: of people in this country, life is completely unaffordable. And 105 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 4: so he has to do some dancing when it comes 106 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 4: to the economy. Remember, the stock market. 107 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 6: Is not the economy. 108 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 4: That is not the economy. And I get why he 109 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 4: focused on it so much. And he talked about how 110 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 4: the records in the stock market and people's four oh 111 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 4: one k's are up, and he rolled out a new 112 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 4: four oh one K initiative that he wants to put 113 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 4: forth at last night. But we know the other side 114 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 4: and that is life is unaffordable for many Americans. Housing 115 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 4: is completely unaffordable on every level. Energy prices are through 116 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 4: the roof. Your natural gas and your electric bill has 117 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 4: gone through the roof. Taxes are insane, especially when it 118 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,600 Speaker 4: comes to property taxes. Oh yeah, and by the way, 119 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 4: one of the reasons why gas isn't below two dollars 120 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 4: and thirty cents a gallon here in Indiana, it's because 121 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 4: we have one of the highest gas taxes in the 122 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 4: entire country and awful roads to show for it. Yeah, 123 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,799 Speaker 4: life is unaffordable for people. So Donald Trump, he's telling 124 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,200 Speaker 4: you the story he wants you to hear when it 125 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:41,279 Speaker 4: comes to the economy. But there's a completely different story 126 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 4: out there that's also taking place at the same time. 127 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 2: Well, if you ask him, he has turned it around, 128 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 2: and that's exactly how he started this speech last night. 129 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 3: Thank you. 130 00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:56,359 Speaker 1: Today, our border is secure, our spirit is restored, Inflation 131 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: is plummeting, incomes are rising. Asked, the roaring economy is 132 00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: roaring like never before, and our enemies are scared, our 133 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:11,559 Speaker 1: military and police are stacked, and America is respected again, 134 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,080 Speaker 1: perhaps like never before. 135 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 2: So the State of the Union address originates obviously in 136 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 2: the Constitution required by the president to periodically inform Congress 137 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: about the nation's condition. George Washington was the first to 138 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 2: do it. You had Thomas Jefferson, who actually just wrote 139 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 2: a letter, a written message. 140 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 4: Send them a book report. Hey guys, here it is. 141 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 4: Don't bother me. I'm going over and digging. 142 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 6: A nap, right. 143 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 2: And then you had Woodrow Wilson, who revived it in 144 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 2: person in nineteen thirteen, and obviously, with the invention of 145 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: the television broadcasting, expanded it to the national audience. 146 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 6: And then you have. 147 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 2: People on the Democrat side who aren't even going. And 148 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 2: here in Indianapolis on Carson, he said he wasn't going 149 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 2: to go. He said, families are stretched thin by higher prices, 150 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:10,119 Speaker 2: communities are disturbed by fatal immigration enforcement tactics, and working 151 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 2: people are watching the wealthiest Americans benefit while the middle 152 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 2: class is left behind. 153 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 6: He said, he's not going. 154 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 2: To participate in this spectacle. Okay, So what are his 155 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,720 Speaker 2: answers to any of the problems? Literally, the Democrats had 156 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 2: a party with dancing frogs. 157 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 6: That is no joke. They have nothing to offer. 158 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,840 Speaker 2: All they're doing is shutting down the government and obstructing 159 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 2: and what were. 160 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 4: Those dances I missed Spamberger's counter speech that she did. 161 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 4: They were dancing frogs as the party with her. 162 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 6: It was during the opposition parties. 163 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 2: There were four different parties going on last night where 164 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 2: the Democrats were showing up. 165 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 6: Most disappointing to. 166 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: Me, though, is that the Democrats they missed the opportunity 167 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,959 Speaker 2: to pay homage to all the heroes that were highlighted 168 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 2: in this speech last night, like Chief warrent Off, Sir 169 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: Eric Slover, one of the heroes of the military Operation 170 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 2: of Venezuela. Also the one hundred year old Navy fighter 171 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: pilot Royce Williams, he received the Congressional Medal of Honor 172 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 2: for his actions during the Korean War. 173 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 6: And they weren't even there to acknowledge those people. 174 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 2: I get it, you're not going to get along with 175 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 2: Donald Trump and everything that he has to say, but 176 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 2: you represent the people in your district. And even if 177 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 2: only a third of the people in your district voted 178 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:33,439 Speaker 2: for you, and that's why you're there. 179 00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 6: There's still two thirds that. 180 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 2: You're representing, and you should be there to show those 181 00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 2: people who voted you in office, or even didn't vote 182 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 2: you in office, respect that you're there to do your job. 183 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think we're going to talk a lot on 184 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 4: today's show about how silly the Democrats looked last night, 185 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 4: about how they're not doing themselves any favor from a 186 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,080 Speaker 4: political perspective, because again, the Democrats have got a run 187 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 4: for office again and they come across as just looking 188 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 4: like fools last night. So we're going to talk about 189 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 4: a lot of that throughout the whole show today. But 190 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 4: that's a big part of it. Oh and by the way, 191 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 4: the Republicans got some problems too. I'm not letting the 192 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 4: Republicans off the hook because there was a lot that 193 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,640 Speaker 4: happened last night that made the Republicans just look like 194 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 4: fools as well. So plenty of that is coming up 195 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 4: on today's show. 196 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: Okay, before we get into break, I wanted to play 197 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 2: one last clip, and this was from Monday. 198 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 6: This reporter call her a reporter.

And the sad 224 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: part is they're all lying. That's what the young people 225 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 2: are taught.

He looks for an opportunity or a 269 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 4: couple of them where he knows exactly how to rage 270 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 4: bait the Democrats at a time when it will look 271 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 4: awful for them. So he sat there and said, the 272 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 4: first duty of the American gouvern protect is to protect 273 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 4: American citizens, not illegal aliens. And all we saw watching 274 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 4: that speech last night, the cameras all went to the 275 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 4: Democrats and they were all seated. 276 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 5: He has firmly placed. 277 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 4: Them in the public, in the mind of the American public, 278 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 4: as being four illegal aliens. Versus the American people, and 279 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 4: he's got the track record to back it up. He 280 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 4: sat there and said, look, you can talk to anybody, 281 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 4: even a Democrat will say, yes, Trump has shut the 282 00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: southern border. That is something that is an irrefutable fact 283 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 4: that exists. Oh and by the way, because we shut 284 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 4: the southern border down, we have seen murders and violent 285 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 4: crimes drop to all time lows in this country. 286 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 5: That is his. 287 00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 4: Single greatest accomplishment of his first year in office. He 288 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 4: rage baited the Democrats right into it, and of course, 289 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 4: of course they fell right into his track. 290 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he said, we do have the most secure 291 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 2: border in American history, Fentanyl down fifty six percent in 292 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:03,040 Speaker 2: one year, lowest recorded crime in one hundred years. And 293 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,800 Speaker 2: you had elan Omar and Rashida Talib, they just unraveling 294 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 2: in a screeching rage as he was declaring that the 295 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 2: US government should put Americans first. And then you had 296 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 2: an entire political party just admitting to caring more about 297 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,480 Speaker 2: illegal immigrants than American citizens. 298 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 6: The optics were horrible for them. 299 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, Democrats had a real bad night across the board. 300 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 4: And it's because of this. So let's take the actual 301 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 4: let's look at this from purely a political standpoint. This 302 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 4: is just political analysis, not agreeing or disagreeing with the 303 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 4: specific political positions, but how these things are going to 304 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:44,360 Speaker 4: look as voters go to the polls. We know that 305 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 4: people aren't voting for Democrats because they stand on the 306 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 4: wrong side of so many eighty twenty issues in this country, 307 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 4: whether it's illegal immigration, or whether it's boys and girls 308 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 4: bathrooms and in girls' locker rooms, or whether it is 309 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 4: abortion right up until the second before live birth. When 310 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,080 Speaker 4: the American people hear the Democrats stand behind those positions, 311 00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 4: they know, they're like, I cannot vote for this, and 312 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 4: that's why. Look, the Republicans got a bunch of problems, 313 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 4: and I had a bunch of problems with what what 314 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 4: Trump did last night and the things that the Republicans 315 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 4: are doing too, and we'll get to those at some point. 316 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 4: But the Democrats last night again by their actions, come 317 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 4: across as completely crazy and unreasonable. They just look ridiculous 318 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 4: for starters. Half of them, you know, didn't even show 319 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 4: up last night. The ones were there again. We had 320 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 4: the Democrat from Texas holding up a sign and getting 321 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,120 Speaker 4: kicked out. We knew that was coming. Two years in 322 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 4: a row. 323 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 6: It happened quick too, two years in a row for. 324 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 4: The Democrat from Texas getting kicked out of the state. 325 00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 5: Of the Union. I mean, you just look like fools. 326 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 4: You look like so just completely an unseerious party. And 327 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 4: the polls have shown that out, I mean, for over 328 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 4: for a couple of years now, we've seen the Democrats 329 00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 4: polling at historically low numbers, much worse than the Republicans. 330 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 4: That's going to be a challenge for them as they 331 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 4: go to the polls as we come up on the 332 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 4: November midterm elections here, the Democrats just continue to really 333 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,639 Speaker 4: offer nothing, look like they're completely crazy and be on 334 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 4: the wrong side of eighty twenty issues and offer nothing 335 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,199 Speaker 4: other than we don't like Trump. It continues to be 336 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,400 Speaker 4: the core tenant of the Democrat Party today is we 337 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 4: just don't like Trump and will oppose anything that he 338 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 4: is for. 339 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 2: So he was turning everyday concerns like road safety into policy. 340 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,880 Speaker 2: It's one of the things that he announced last night 341 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,879 Speaker 2: tightening immigration rules, and that is a nice signal to 342 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 2: his supporters that he is still continuing to prioritize enforcement. 343 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 6: One of the things that he announced last night. 344 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 2: Which really hits home here in central Indiana. He called 345 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 2: on Congress to pass what he's calling the Delilah Law, 346 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:51,359 Speaker 2: which bars any state from granting CDL licenses to illegal aliens. 347 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,159 Speaker 1: Many of most illegal aliens do not speak English and 348 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,720 Speaker 1: cannot read even the most basic road signs as to direction, speed, danger, 349 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: or location. That's why tonight I'm calling on Congress to 350 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: pass what we will call the Delilah Law, barring any 351 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 1: state from granting commercial drivers' licenses to illegal aliens. 352 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, especially here in the crossroads of America. You want 353 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:22,760 Speaker 2: to feel like you're safe on the road. You don't 354 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 2: want to be grabbing that wheel every time you're driving 355 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 2: by a semi Yeah. 356 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 4: And we've had two instances here just the last few 357 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 4: weeks where illegal aliens have been driving in this state 358 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 4: and have gotten into accidents that have killed Hoosier set 359 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,159 Speaker 4: So it certainly hits home today. Here's the problem I 360 00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 4: have with this. And look, Trump lying laid out a 361 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:41,359 Speaker 4: whole bunch of initiatives that he wants to do, and 362 00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 4: that's wonderful and fantastic, But what have the Republicans in 363 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 4: Congress really passed over the last year other than the 364 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,679 Speaker 4: big beautiful bill, which was a ton of pork, outrageous spending, 365 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:52,879 Speaker 4: and terrible for this country. 366 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 5: That's it. Look, the Republicans can't even get the. 367 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 4: Save Act passed. They can't even get their entire party 368 00:18:58,960 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 4: to go along with vote or ID from a national level, 369 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,960 Speaker 4: that should be just a brain dead automatic yes for 370 00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 4: any conservative to any Republicans. So call me a little 371 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 4: bit skeptical when Trump talked about, you know, we're going 372 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 4: to pass this national law about CDLs for legal immigrants, 373 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 4: and I want to, you know, create new four oh 374 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 4: one k's for people that don't have but he laid 375 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 4: out all these initiatives that he wants to take place. Well, 376 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 4: unless he can get him done with executive order, Congress 377 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 4: and the Republicans specifically in Congress have shown they cannot 378 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 4: get their act together to pass anything. 379 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 5: At this point. 380 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 6: You're listening to ninety three WYBC. 381 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 2: Good warning everyone, just watching this whole Tony Gonzales thing 382 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,960 Speaker 2: play out, by Milson thing play out, the Elanamr thing 383 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:45,720 Speaker 2: play out. 384 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 6: The Stacy Clasket thing play out, all the things. 385 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 2: The reason that no one has ever held accountable here 386 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 2: in Congress for their transgrestions is because both sides protect 387 00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:58,600 Speaker 2: the other. 388 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, that's that's right. 389 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 8: If he gets through, it's going to make it a 390 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 8: lot harder for leaderships to sweeper scandal's under the rug. 391 00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:06,679 Speaker 8: And that's going to be good for voters who went 392 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 8: scandals exposed, not protected. That was Representative Nancy Mays South Carolina. 393 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 8: She introduced a resolution directing the House Ethics Committee to 394 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:20,760 Speaker 8: preserve and publicly release all reports on investigations into a 395 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:21,959 Speaker 8: member of Congress. 396 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 6: Now, this is relating back to what's his name, Tony Gonzalez. 397 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 4: He's a representative Republican REP out of Texas. 398 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's facing some controversy this over allegations that he 399 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 2: had an affair with a former staffer who later died 400 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: by suicide. 401 00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 4: This is going to be a problem for Republicans because 402 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,119 Speaker 4: there's several stories all all at the top of the 403 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 4: news headlines this week that make Republicans look terrible, and 404 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 4: Nancy Mays is exactly right on that. You know, she 405 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 4: wants to push through this information so that so that 406 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:03,280 Speaker 4: you can not have other politicians protecting you. And look, 407 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,199 Speaker 4: I'm gonna run through several examples here where the Republicans 408 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 4: looked really, really bad this week. And certainly you can 409 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 4: make arguments on the other side and say, oh well, 410 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 4: and oh but this and those are valid. But we've 411 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,679 Speaker 4: got three of them that are kind of taking up 412 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 4: a lot of headlines this week that all look like 413 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 4: Republicans are up, you know, hiding and misogynistic and trying 414 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,800 Speaker 4: to cover up potential sexual assaults. So we've got the 415 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,720 Speaker 4: Tony Gonzales issue here, and again he's that Republican rep 416 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,879 Speaker 4: from Texas. Just comes across as terrible. The newspaper in 417 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 4: San Antonio reported last week it had obtained text messages 418 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 4: with the former staffer who admitted to an affair with 419 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:43,199 Speaker 4: the lawmaker. She then dies by suicide. This is a 420 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 4: terrible look. Look, guess what when when you're the elected official, 421 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,680 Speaker 4: you're the boss of the staff that you've got there. 422 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 5: And we all know that. 423 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 4: Any corporate America or any business setting, the boss is 424 00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 4: not supposed to have an affair with the subordinates. That's 425 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 4: unacceptable on every level. It should be absolutely unacceptable in Congress. 426 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 4: The fact that the woman ended up committing suicide is 427 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 4: a whole other aspect of it that makes it even worse. 428 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 5: And what do we got? What did we get yesterday, 429 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 5: we had Speaker. 430 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:13,159 Speaker 4: Johnson coming out and not calling for his resignation. He 431 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 4: did says a terrible, just awful look for the Republican He. 432 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: Did say that the allegations were really serious, also detestable, 433 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: but he didn't call for Gonzales to resign. He says 434 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,919 Speaker 2: that the investigation should be allowed to play out before 435 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 2: jumping to any conclusions. 436 00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 4: Okay, fine, look that's great, Speaker Johnson, but you look 437 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 4: like a fool, You look like an idiot, You look 438 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 4: like somebody who is protecting, you know, call him a 439 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,679 Speaker 4: sexual you know, alleged sexual predator or somebody that at 440 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 4: the very least allegedly committed sexual harassment because he's the 441 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 4: boss and he was sleeping with one of his staffers. 442 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 4: Let's go to another one. You had the the and 443 00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 4: it's blown up on social media. Donald Trump calling the 444 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 4: American men's hockey team while they were in you know, 445 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 4: the locker room celebrating their gold medal and kind of 446 00:22:58,240 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 4: came across as a bit of a disc to the 447 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 4: women's hockey team. Now again, you could see that a 448 00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 4: bunch of different ways, but you put it with what's 449 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:07,320 Speaker 4: happened here with Reprigen Zales in Texas and then you 450 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 4: put that phone call with Trump. 451 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,399 Speaker 5: Oh, and that let's add on everything that we've. 452 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 4: Been talking about with the Epstein files, who has been 453 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 4: the one again. 454 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,439 Speaker 5: Trump didn't want these released. 455 00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,280 Speaker 4: It took a bipartisan effort by Thomas Massey, Republican, and 456 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 4: Rocanna a Democrat, to force Congress. Congress didn't want to 457 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 4: do this. They forced the issue. They forced Congress to 458 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 4: vote on this. They forced Trump to reluctantly sign the 459 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 4: law that forced the release. 460 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 5: Of the Epstein files. 461 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 4: And now we know they're heavily redacted in a lot 462 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 4: of areas, and there's still three and a half million 463 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 4: files that haven't been released. And Pam Bondi has come 464 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 4: out and said, Nope, not doing it. 465 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 6: I'm not gonna happen. 466 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 5: I dare you make me? 467 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:52,159 Speaker 4: Those three overarching issues that come across as Republicans not 468 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:57,240 Speaker 4: only not caring about women, but protecting potential sexual predators 469 00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,119 Speaker 4: who prey on women. It is a terrible look for 470 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,959 Speaker 4: the Republicans. It's something that they've got to stop and 471 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,719 Speaker 4: figure out a solution to because going into these min 472 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 4: terms it is going to be a big problem for them, 473 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 4: and it seems to just be getting worse. You hope 474 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 4: it'd be getting better, but things just keep coming out 475 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,160 Speaker 4: and it just keeps getting worse and worse and worse. 476 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Nancy Mace is not having any of it now, 477 00:24:16,840 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: according to Grok Odds of this actually passing the House, 478 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,480 Speaker 2: enforcing full public release of all the ethics records on 479 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 2: any sexual harassment cases under five percent. 480 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 5: Yeah. 481 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:29,879 Speaker 4: But and that's what I just talked about when we 482 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:31,840 Speaker 4: were talking about a minute ago with Donald Trump in 483 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 4: the State of Union, he laid out all these great 484 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:35,879 Speaker 4: things that he wants to do. And one of my 485 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:38,360 Speaker 4: favorites from last night was he when he talked about 486 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 4: stopping the insider trading within Congress, which, of course the 487 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 4: American people are like, Yeah, how do we not already 488 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 4: have a law on the books where members of Congress, 489 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,880 Speaker 4: you know, can't do insider trading because they get insider 490 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 4: information all the time and are benefiting from it financially massively. 491 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 5: But what the funny thing was that most. 492 00:24:58,560 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 6: Elizabeth Warren actually applauded. 493 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 5: Yeah, but it's surprised it was. It was a bunch 494 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 5: of like polite applause. 495 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 4: Like nothing else in the entire either the you know 496 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 4: anything Trump said, either the Republicans or standing up and cheering, 497 00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 4: or the Democrats were booing. But when it gets to hey, 498 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 4: you guys can't do insider trading anymore, they got polite 499 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:17,800 Speaker 4: golf collaps across the board. 500 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 2: That was did make it a point to mention that 501 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,560 Speaker 2: the women's hockey team are going to be coming to 502 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:24,480 Speaker 2: the White House during the State of the Union address, 503 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 2: And then you had Jack Hughes's mother actually coming out 504 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: and saying, you know what, he really didn't mean anything 505 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 2: negative by it. But you're right, a lot of women 506 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:36,400 Speaker 2: are very upset by the comments that Donald Trump said 507 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: to the men's hockey team. 508 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:42,119 Speaker 4: And look, I think that issue specifically has been completely overblown, 509 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 4: completely overblown, because you could have viewed that one hundred 510 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 4: different ways. And it's tough for me to be mad 511 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 4: at those hockey players because they're in the moment, celebrating 512 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 4: in the locker. 513 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:50,720 Speaker 6: Presidents. 514 00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 5: President's on the phone. 515 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 4: What are you going to all of a sudden, you know, 516 00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 4: stop everything, Hey, hey, hey, stop knock it off, mister 517 00:25:58,160 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 4: president here, you know, let's be on with this. But again, 518 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: and I'm. 519 00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,719 Speaker 5: Not talking about the validity of the specific issues. 520 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 4: I'm talking about from a political analysis standpoint, though it 521 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 4: looked bad for Donald Trump and it looked bad for Republicans. 522 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 4: What's going on with Repkinzales in Texas looks bad for Republicans. 523 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 4: The failure to release all the Epstein files looks bad 524 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 4: for Donald Trump and the Republicans. 525 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 2: So there are a growing number of lawmakers, including Lauren 526 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,640 Speaker 2: Bobert and Anna Paulina Luna, Nancy Mays, Thomas Massey. They're 527 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 2: all calling on Gonzales to resign and drop out of 528 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 2: his upcoming primary race over this. And then you had 529 00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:35,720 Speaker 2: mentioned the insider trading thing. Here is Donald Trump with 530 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 2: the State of the Union address call out Nancy Pelosi, 531 00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:39,800 Speaker 2: who wasn't even there. 532 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:43,280 Speaker 1: As we ensure that all Americans can profit from a 533 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: rising stock market, let's also ensure that members of Congress 534 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 1: cannot corruptly profit from using insider information. 535 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 5: Sounds like the lightest, most polite applause. 536 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: They stood up so that I can't believe. I can't 537 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 1: believe it. Did Nancy Pelosi stand up? If she is here, 538 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:19,360 Speaker 1: I doubt it pass the Stop Insider Trading Act without delay. 539 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 2: So Nancy Pelosi was on CNN after the State of 540 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 2: the Union address, and they asked her about that, and 541 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 2: she looked just befuddled, like she did not have an answer, 542 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 2: and they said, you know, Elizabeth Warren. 543 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 6: Applauded that, and she was like surprised by. 544 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 5: It, shocked by it. If you don't know. 545 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 6: What somebody's calling me out on CNN, Y if. 546 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 4: Nancy Pelosi has, you know, famously been one of the 547 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,920 Speaker 4: worst perpetrators of this. And there are people online that 548 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 4: follow all of her stock trades because they have to 549 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 4: be disclosed, and it's shocking. They'll, you know, for example, 550 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 4: she'll buy a ton of defense stocks all of a sudden, 551 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 4: and then two days later, some announcement will come out 552 00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 4: about how the United States is spending all this additional 553 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,399 Speaker 4: money on defense, and those stocks go up and Nancy 554 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 4: Pelosi makes a ton of money. But again back to 555 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 4: what I said before, the Republicans can't even pass the 556 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 4: Save Act. The Republicans have control of the set at 557 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:10,640 Speaker 4: the House and the Presidency. 558 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,320 Speaker 5: They can't even pass voter ID. 559 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 4: There's no way that they're going to pass these things 560 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 4: that would embarrass them, like, hey, let's come out and 561 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,200 Speaker 4: release all the files when anytime there's a sexual harassment claim, 562 00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 4: against a member of Congress. You think there's gonna be 563 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 4: people lining up to vote to that no, because it's 564 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:28,760 Speaker 4: going to embarrass the heck. 565 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 5: Out of them. 566 00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:29,760 Speaker 6: Well, you're right. 567 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 2: I mean, many conservatives they talk about due process and 568 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 2: fairness before punishment, but the optics are terrible. If the 569 00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 2: tests are real and that staffer has died, voters, they 570 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 2: deserve honesty, they deserve accountability, and you can't protect a 571 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 2: seat just because there's a primary coming up. 572 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 6: You have to do the right thing in this situation. 573 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 4: And the worst part is, and look, if Repkinzalez is 574 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 4: a dirt bag and he wants to go in front 575 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 4: of cameras and say, look, I'm not resigning. I don't 576 00:28:58,120 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 4: care if I was sleeping with one of my staff 577 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 4: mem and then she killed herself, I'm not resigned. Fine, 578 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,120 Speaker 4: that's on him, and people can take care of him 579 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,880 Speaker 4: at the polls and do what they want. The worst 580 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,960 Speaker 4: part is, the worst part was Mike Johnson and other 581 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 4: Republicans defending him, or at the very least not calling 582 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 4: him out on it and calling him to resign. That's 583 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:18,040 Speaker 4: what looks So often You're gonna have people that do terrible, 584 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,160 Speaker 4: awful things and they'll get their consequences. Don't cheer them on, 585 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 4: don't cheer them on, don't support them, hold them accountable. So, yeah, 586 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 4: there's no chance that this insider trading bill is going 587 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 4: to pass. And I think that was a lot of 588 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 4: what Donald Trump said last night. He gave all these initiatives. 589 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 4: There's no chance any of these things are passing. We 590 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 4: can't get the Republicans again. We don't need the Democrats. 591 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 4: Don't need the Democrats to pass voter ID. The Save 592 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,120 Speaker 4: Act has been talked about for months and months now, 593 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 4: and it's no further to getting passed than it was 594 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 4: at the start of the year. 595 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 6: You're listening to ninety three WIBC. Sure there's no signedeal. 596 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 2: Yes that lallmakers voted nearly unanimously, sending a message in 597 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 2: Indiana wants the Chicago Bears and they're not afraid to 598 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:08,400 Speaker 2: use some creative financing to make it happen, creative financing. 599 00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 6: Being the keyword there. 600 00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 2: So this happened yesterday, voting overwhelmingly ninety five in favor 601 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 2: for oppose, the Indiana House of Representatives approve Senate Bill 602 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 2: twenty seven, and that would set the stage for the 603 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 2: Chicago Bears to come to Hammond. And now this is 604 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 2: going to go back to the Senate and if they 605 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 2: approve it, it'll head to the Governor's desk. 606 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, more and more details keep coming 607 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 4: out about this as this bill advances. And what I 608 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 4: find the most interesting part of this is there seems 609 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 4: to be a little bit of a funding gap. 610 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,240 Speaker 5: They'll tell you there isn't. 611 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 4: A little bit. Well, you know, Indiana is going to 612 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 4: contribute about a billion dollars to this, and it's going 613 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 4: to be done through these new use taxes that are 614 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,680 Speaker 4: lined out in this bill. And there's going to be 615 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 4: a food and beverage tax and it's estimated that'll you know, 616 00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,960 Speaker 4: earn about ten million dollars a year. And then there's 617 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 4: going to be you know, a hotel tax and that'll 618 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,520 Speaker 4: be in about another five or ten million dollars a year. 619 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 4: And then there's going to be a tax on every 620 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 4: ticket to any event, whether it's the Bears or not 621 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 4: in that stadium of twelve percent, and that looks like 622 00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 4: that'll be about another ten to fifteen million dollars. So 623 00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 4: you've got about this thirty five million dollars a year 624 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 4: in taxes that they've lined up, but the state is 625 00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:24,360 Speaker 4: going to be spending a billion dollars to build the stadium. 626 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,800 Speaker 4: There seems to be a bit of a shortfall. And 627 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 4: then there's this general catch all that people are talking 628 00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 4: about of well, there'll be some other taxes in the future. 629 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:36,280 Speaker 4: Maybe we'll steal some money from the Indiana Toll Road 630 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 4: that's up in the northern part of the state, or 631 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 4: maybe we'll levy some income taxes to northern Indiana or 632 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 4: do some other things. That's really the problem I see 633 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 4: is that the math isn't lining up, and the part 634 00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 4: that's left unsaid is is are these additional potential taxes 635 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 4: that'll come down the road. 636 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you've got conservatives talking about economic development and 637 00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: taxpayers getting a return on investment, and they're just hoping 638 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 2: that this will lead to economic development, jobs and also 639 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 2: infrastructure improvements. Is very much like putting the cart before 640 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 2: the horse in this situation. Again, I go back to 641 00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 2: creative financing. That is the key word there, because they 642 00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 2: don't have it all. The bottom line, as you mentioned, 643 00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 2: not adding up. Yeah, it doesn't see or at least 644 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 2: what we're being told. 645 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 5: We add it up again. 646 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 4: Again, there's this massive funding gap that I see there 647 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 4: because the math isn't working for me, and their answer 648 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,959 Speaker 4: to it is this fuzziness of oh, there'll be too 649 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,160 Speaker 4: There'll be other taxes that will be included there, and 650 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 4: of course my guess is those are going to be 651 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:37,280 Speaker 4: the most extreme taxes and the ones that people will 652 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:38,360 Speaker 4: be the most upset about. 653 00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 5: And I think all of this is being done. At 654 00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 5: the end of the day. 655 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 4: Again, my prediction is the Chicago Bears will stay and 656 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:48,000 Speaker 4: they'll choose Arlington Heights. They'll go to Arlington Heights because 657 00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:51,240 Speaker 4: I just do not see the Bears. And again, the 658 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 4: Chicago Bears have been owned by the Hallis and the 659 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 4: McCaskey family since they were started one hundred years ago. 660 00:32:56,640 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 4: It's the same family that started it that runs it today. 661 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:03,920 Speaker 4: They ingrained in Chicago. I think that for them personally, 662 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 4: it would be too difficult for them to pull the 663 00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 4: trigger and move the Bears out of the City of Illinois. 664 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 5: Shoot, I think it's gonna be hard. 665 00:33:10,760 --> 00:33:12,720 Speaker 4: For them to even pull out of the city of 666 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 4: Chicago and Soldier Field. I think that's going to be 667 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 4: tough for the mccaskey's to do. But I think the 668 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 4: city of Chicago left them no other choice. I mean, 669 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,120 Speaker 4: there was nothing they could do there. So they bought 670 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,800 Speaker 4: this option in Arlington Heights where they bought the old 671 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 4: Arlington Heights Racetrack and they're going to build there and 672 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 4: eventually I think they'll make that final decision. By the way, 673 00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,560 Speaker 4: it looks like that there is a committee meeting and 674 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 4: vote that is scheduled in the Illinois legislature for tomorrow. 675 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 4: Now we know what happened last time Illinois legislator had 676 00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:43,200 Speaker 4: a committee vote. They canceled that because it was the 677 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:45,479 Speaker 4: Indiana vote that was happening the same day. So we'll 678 00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 4: see if that one happens. But if it does take place, 679 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,680 Speaker 4: we could get some more information from the Illinois lawmakers 680 00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,080 Speaker 4: as early as tomorrow and. 681 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 2: That could definitely sway a decision for the Bears. Of course, 682 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 2: you've got no formal signed deal with the Bears. That 683 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:03,160 Speaker 2: doesn't exist just yet. Okay, So you've got country star 684 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 2: and Grammy winner Darius Rucker. He's going to bring his 685 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:10,240 Speaker 2: summer concert to Indianapolis.
