1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,640
Speaker 1: We have record high property taxes.

2
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 2: Check.

3
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 1: We have one of the highest gas taxes in the nation.

4
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: Check our roads suck. Check we have skyrocketing utility bills.

5
00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 2: Check.

6
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: Local governments appear to be ignoring the modest amount of

7
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,439
Speaker 1: property tax reform received and are finding other ways to

8
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:25,480
Speaker 1: raise your taxes with check. Yeah, and yet our General

9
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: Assembly continues to waste time on leading you to believe

10
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 1: they're going to annex thirty three counties from Illinois to

11
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 1: the state of Indiana.

12
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 2: Check.

13
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,839
Speaker 1: Okay, very good, We're don of here. This concludes our

14
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 1: segment of the Kendall in Casey show. Thanks for playing. Okay,

15
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,400
Speaker 1: So now look here, here's the problem with this. So

16
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 1: in the in the legislative session, the mens of people

17
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: who run our state came out and decided, with the

18
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 1: Speaker of the House of Representatives, Todd Houston, giving his

19
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: full throated endorsement to this, that they were going to

20
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: study how to annex thirty three counties who said we

21
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: want out of Illinois into the state of Indiana. Now,

22
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 1: first of all, they never said they wanted to come

23
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: to Indiana. They just said we want out.

24
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 2: Of you who went out of Illinois.

25
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,839
Speaker 1: Second of all, any leaving of the state of Illinois,

26
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: and the laws crystal clear would require not only an

27
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: approval of the Illinois General Assembly and the governor, all Democrats,

28
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 1: but also to approve of the United States Congress. So

29
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: that's not happening. But yet, Oh and by the way,

30
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: these counties are contiguous. They're like a V They're like

31
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: a V. But yet we're led to believe that there

32
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: is a chance, a fraction of a chance, on God's

33
00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: green earth, that these counties are going to come into

34
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,120
Speaker 1: the state of Indiana. To the point we are not

35
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: only do we waste all the time I'm debating it now,

36
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 1: the governor is wasting time putting together a commission to

37
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: study it.

38
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, we've got a commission.

39
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 3: So Governor Brown appointed five Hoosiers to this newly formed

40
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 3: Indiana Illinois Boundary Adjustment Commission. Their job is to explore

41
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 3: adding Illinois counties that voted to secede from Illinois. However,

42
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 3: Illinois has not appointed any on their side because.

43
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:30,359
Speaker 1: It's not happening. And what we told you during the session,

44
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,440
Speaker 1: what we've told you ever since, is you should be

45
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,840
Speaker 1: outraged by this because this is a glorified floor show.

46
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: These people aren't spending time on the things that actually

47
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: affect you, because that would involve work, and it would

48
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: also involve them having to stick it in the face

49
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: of their donors and lobbyists who fuel their political careers.

50
00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:48,800
Speaker 1: So they're not going to do that. What they're going

51
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 1: to do is waste time on stuff like this to

52
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 1: distract you so that you, hopefully won't pay attention to

53
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: what a crappy job they're doing in the General Assembly. Now,

54
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: don't take my word for it, take the word of

55
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: State Representative Bo Baird, And we played this for you

56
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 1: last week. Now, Bo Baird, you'll remember him. His daddy's

57
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 1: the congressman. He's the guy who got the OWI when

58
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: he was running for State House. Yes, but conveniently, while

59
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: his dad was a sitting member of the Indiana General

60
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: Assembly and also the Republican nominee for Congress. Conveniently, for

61
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:29,800
Speaker 1: trust fund Baby, there were multiple clerical errors in the system,

62
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: including his name and his address, and nobody knew that

63
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: trust Fund Baby got this OWI, and he was able

64
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: to run for State House with nobody knowing. And for

65
00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:42,640
Speaker 1: what has it been seven years now, trust Fund Kid

66
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: didn't have to face it didn't have to own up

67
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: to it. And then when we called him out and

68
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: we gave him multiple days when we finally found the

69
00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: put it all together. We gave him multiple days to

70
00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: fess up and tell the truth, and he refused to,

71
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: so we had to break the story. And then remember

72
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: the statement he sent to us was as though, even

73
00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: though he's old, I think he's older than me, so

74
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 1: he would have been in his mid to late thirties

75
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 1: at the time. He presented himself as some struggling college

76
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,520
Speaker 1: student who made like he was twenty two years old

77
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: who made a bad choice. No, sir, you're an entitled

78
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 1: trust fund kid who believes the rules don't apply to you,

79
00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 1: and thus well, and you got away with it.

80
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 2: He was right had it not been for those medaling kids.

81
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 1: So anyway, trust fund Baby, who has relied on his

82
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:31,039
Speaker 1: daddy for everything, went on and he's so he is

83
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 1: still a state rep from Putnam County. Trust Fund Baby

84
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 1: went on Wrightbart and admitted he stooged on himself and

85
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: admitted this is all a big joke.

86
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:44,239
Speaker 4: We actually had legislation in this last session that created

87
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 4: a pathway for counties in Illinois to leave and join Indiana. Now,

88
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 4: will that happened? No, Because, yeah, we had legislation that

89
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 4: created a pathway, but it really just created a commission

90
00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 4: that we have to approve, The Illinois legislature has to approve,

91
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,159
Speaker 4: and then Congress has to approve. But what it allowed

92
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 4: us to do is I think we had three articles

93
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,200
Speaker 4: in the Washington or in the Wall Street Journal about

94
00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 4: why Indiana is a better state to live in than

95
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,040
Speaker 4: Illinois and why so many people from Chicago are leaving

96
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 4: to come to Illinois and trying to leave the policies

97
00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 4: of a state like Illinois.

98
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: Okay, so he admitted it's not happening, right, Just Kep,

99
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 1: can you just play like the first five seconds, just

100
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 1: to make sure nobody thinks that I made up what

101
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:29,479
Speaker 1: trust Fund baby said.

102
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:33,560
Speaker 4: We actually had legislation in this last session that created

103
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 4: a pathway for counties in Illinois to leave and join Indiana. Now,

104
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:40,159
Speaker 4: will that happen?

105
00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:40,280
Speaker 3: No?

106
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: Okay, stop, will that happened?

107
00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:42,320
Speaker 4: No?

108
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 2: He's talking about House en Rolled Act one thousand and eight.

109
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a colossal waste of time. Yeah, they're wasting,

110
00:05:51,040 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 1: but it's not just they're wasting time, they're wasting your resources.

111
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 1: They're using your resources. This guy stooged on himself. I

112
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,120
Speaker 1: don't know if he didn't think we were going to

113
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,680
Speaker 1: get it or what the audio, I don't know, but

114
00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,440
Speaker 1: he freely admits this is a big joke. They're doing

115
00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 1: this so that they get articles written about them. That's it.

116
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: They're using your resources, your money that you aren't actually

117
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 1: working a job because you don't get to be a

118
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,920
Speaker 1: trust fund baby in the son of a congressman and

119
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: the son of a state rep Do you get the

120
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:22,400
Speaker 1: convenient multiple clerical errors in the system so nobody knows

121
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: if you get an OWI No, This guy admits that, Ah,

122
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,160
Speaker 1: this is all big joke. It's all funny.

123
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,000
Speaker 2: They got articles.

124
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: Hey, how about we have a big joke about the

125
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 1: utility bills? Trust fund baby. How dout we have a

126
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: big joke, a big fun about the property tax bills?

00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: Trust fund baby? How do we have a big joke

128
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,880
Speaker 1: and a big fun about the gas tax? Trust fun baby?

129
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:45,920
Speaker 1: Why don't we have some fun with that? It actually

130
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: helps some people.

131
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 3: Okay, so they have appointed five people, all Republicans. There

132
00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 3: has to be six, and it's got to be a

133
00:06:54,560 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 3: Democrat to sertify. To sertify satisfy the laws by partisan requirement,

134
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 3: and they're going to name that Democrat later.

135
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 2: So this is very much like Gosh, you like.

136
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 3: Setting the dinner table for a guest who never agreed

137
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:15,200
Speaker 3: to come over, and then you hope that they bring

138
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 3: snacks and pay rent.

139
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,600
Speaker 1: But this guy's admitting what they're doing. They're not even

140
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,160
Speaker 1: optimistic that it would actually happen. It's one thing to

141
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:25,000
Speaker 1: do something. Go Okay, that's stupid. No, we believe it.

142
00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:29,280
Speaker 1: He admitted it's not happening. Yeah, And it's all fun

143
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: and games to these people in the General Assembly. Why

144
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: because their paychecks keep showing up, the money that they

145
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: get keeps showing up. They can do whatever the hell

146
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 1: they want to do. And they have zero respect for you,

147
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 1: And they have zero respect for the money you were

148
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 1: and they were a zero respect of how they take

149
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: it from you and do whatever they want to do

150
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 1: with it. It's all fun and games. You're getting crushed

151
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: in every facet of your existence. And these clowns.

152
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 5: Are using your money for pr And by the way, Bo,

153
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 5: if you'd like to have a conversation about any of this,

154
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,880
Speaker 5: stop running from us like you did when we revealed

155
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,960
Speaker 5: your little OWI debacle and come in here and let's

156
00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 5: have a conversation.

157
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 1: Let's have a conversation about the whole thing. Bet that

158
00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:14,679

00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 3: a double digit growth. Now you asked the question about

170
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 3: the layover before. Oh yeah, and we had somebody who

171
00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,120

Speaker 2: Yes, the sky was a he's a pilot.

Speaker 1: Pilot and he told me, okay, I'll just i'll.

174
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:09,640
Speaker 2: Did you find it?

177
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I'll read it. It's Peter is the guy's name.

178
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, he says, hey, Rob, you and I have

179
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 3: some similarities and some differences. I'm also OCD and I

180
00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,040
Speaker 3: can't stand Republicans who spend all my money on their

181
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,440
Speaker 3: version of fiscal responsibility. But the difference is I'm an

182
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,240
Speaker 3: airline pilot.

183
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 1: Oh, if you need a.

184
00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 2: Guy in this department, I'm your man.

185
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 3: As far as the airline not waiting on connecting flights,

186
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:42,440
Speaker 3: it comes down to making angry the least amount You

187
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 3: say that, Can I say that word?

188
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: You could say that.

189
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 2: It comes down to pissing off the least amount of people.

190
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 3: Every delay delays more people, and downhill it goes until

191
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 3: everyone is hosed, and you get that crazy lazy filming the.

192
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 2: Lead viral TikTok video. The planes run multiple legs to day.

193
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 3: The biggest priority is to have the plane in the

194
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:08,439
Speaker 3: right place in the morning to get back on track

195
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 3: for the next day and get a fresh start.

196
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: So so he what he's saying is because we had

197
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: talked about there was a connecting flight, right there was

198
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: a guy on your flight, your flight from Hell to

199
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 1: Baltimore who because of a delay on the plane, the

200
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: plane's fault right like, everybody was on their right time,

201
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,320
Speaker 1: ready to go, and there was some mechanical issue or whatever.

202
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,640
Speaker 2: He was going to miss his connecting flight.

203
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,720
Speaker 1: And I said, how is that a thing that if

204
00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:40,560
Speaker 1: the airline knows, if the airline knows that somebody is

205
00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: in you know, trouble of some sort like trouble in

206
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: the sense of like their flight is delayed, why don't

207
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: they wait? Why don't they wait? And and I said,

208
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: I can't believe that you pay for a flight, you

209
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,120
Speaker 1: did nothing wrong, You're in the right place, and like

210
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,960
Speaker 1: you overslept or didn't get to the airport on time,

211
00:10:58,040 --> 00:10:59,800
Speaker 1: and they'll just leave without you. And I said, how

212
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:02,360
Speaker 1: can that be a thing? And appears it is a thing.

213
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's saying, well, the goal is to make avery

214
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 3: the least amount of people
