1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: All right, there is a ton of stuff going on 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 1: with the President of the United States. So I guess 3 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 1: we're going to do a little rapid fire here. Yeah, 4 00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:09,760 Speaker 1: this segment, Casey, the floor is yours. 5 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:12,719 Speaker 2: Lots of different Trump updates. First of all, let's start 6 00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 2: with this new poll and this comes from Pew, and 7 00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:18,840 Speaker 2: they say this is about Trump's use of power, and 8 00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: they say that sixty nine percent of Americans say President 9 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 2: Trump is trying to exercise more power than previous presidents. 10 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 1: Well, that's sort of a reoccurring theme for every president, 11 00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:34,919 Speaker 1: especially in a post nine to eleven world. I think 12 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: we saw a massive extension of presidential executive authority under 13 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: George W. Bush and the federal government, by this case, 14 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 1: the United States Congress has done essentially nothing to rain 15 00:00:47,720 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 1: that in. And whether it's you know, Trump with various 16 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: activities under his presidency, or Biden trying to get people 17 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: fired if you don't get an experimental vaccine, or I 18 00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 1: just think it's just a and. 19 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:03,480 Speaker 3: You're seeing it at local levels, right. 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 1: Look no further than what took place here in the 21 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: state of Indiana during COVID COVID nineteen and all the 22 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 1: stuff the governor did without any pushback whatsoever from the 23 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,520 Speaker 1: General Assembly, And so I think you're just going to 24 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: keep seeing each next president take this further and further 25 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 1: until somebody steps in and does something about it. 26 00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, isn't that up to the Congress to be 27 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:25,880 Speaker 2: the checks and balance for that. 28 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:32,119 Speaker 1: Well, they conveniently use that as a crutch when they 29 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: want to. But I think deep down a lot of 30 00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 1: these people, and you saw this here in Indiana during COVID. 31 00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,399 Speaker 1: I think our General Assembly was very fine with what 32 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:43,200 Speaker 1: Eric Holcom did because they said, let him take the 33 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,679 Speaker 1: slings and arrows. He wants to put on his power pants, 34 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,920 Speaker 1: and then we can play victim and go, well, we'd 35 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 1: love to help you out, but but it's not at 36 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: our purview. 37 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 2: So let's talk about public opinion on his governance. Thirty 38 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:58,440 Speaker 2: nine percent say Trump has improved government operations, fifty nine 39 00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 2: percent say he has not improved how the government works, 40 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 2: and thirty eight percent say Trump runs an open and 41 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: transparent administration. 42 00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 4: Sixty percent disagreed with that. 43 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: So what would Trump have done that would make people 44 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: think government is better because you can doge whatever. 45 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 3: But it didn't. 46 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: First of all, it was too much for people to 47 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: process and Mitch Daniels kind of went through this with 48 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: us several months ago when he was talking about how 49 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,680 Speaker 1: he had kind of reformed the government in the early days. 50 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: And it's that incrementalist approach in which you got to 51 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 1: know one how to get wins, you got to know 52 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: how to prioritize wins, and you got to build off 53 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: a wins. And with Trump and the Doze stuff, it 54 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,680 Speaker 1: was just too much, too fast. They were doing too 55 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: many things that people didn't understand. They weren't selling the 56 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: things they were doing and how it was helping people. 57 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: And then it kind of came out, well, it's not 58 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: really saving anybody any money because that money's just reverted 59 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: back to these agencies. It's not going to pay down 60 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: the debt or something like that. It's just something being 61 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:03,679 Speaker 1: reverted back to these agencies and they'll spend it again 62 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: on something else. 63 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 3: And so I think people look at here we are ten. 64 00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: Months into his or nine months into his presidency, and 65 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,679 Speaker 1: people are going, what's different, how's the government running better? 66 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: We're thirty or almost thirty eight trillion in debt. This 67 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: bill you passed, which is your signature thing, continues to grow. 68 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 1: Government continues to grow. The nation's debt. What are we 69 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: getting that is any different? I don't think people see it. 70 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 2: Well, he did cut the federal workforce by eight point 71 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 2: seven percent, not quite as much as what was promised, 72 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 2: and he has now warned that no back pay will 73 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: go to furloughed workers during the shutdown. So some concerns 74 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: about abuse of power. According to this poll, sixty six 75 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 2: percent say Trump has used his office to punish his 76 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: political opponents, and some notable targets include James Comey, who 77 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: just pled not guilty to all of the charges. 78 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: Well, there's no doubt he's doing that, but there's also 79 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: no doubt the guy before him did that, and then 80 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,400 Speaker 1: there's no doubt that the guy before Trump the first 81 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:03,440 Speaker 1: time that. So like, at this point, this is just 82 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: what we are. 83 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 3: I mean, we are. 84 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 1: Look, we are drifting further and further towards what our 85 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:14,080 Speaker 1: founding fathers warned about and the sort of things that 86 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: they were very specific about that will be the downfall 87 00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: of this country. And it is one of those things 88 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:24,359 Speaker 1: is the idea of too much consolidated power, And we 89 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 1: have too much consolidated power in this country, both at 90 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: a state, about a federal a state and a local 91 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: level in which select individuals can do too much and 92 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 1: the people have the ability to do something about it, 93 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: aren't willing to fight back, and everybody just seems to 94 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: kind of be, you know, whistling past the graveyard. 95 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 2: Sixty one percent believe Trump has used his office to 96 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 2: benefit his family and friends. And again the guy before 97 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 2: him did the same thing, i e. Hunter Biden. 98 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: Look, people are going to judge government. Most people are 99 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 1: going to judge government. The overwhelming majority of people are 100 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 1: going to judge government based on the status of their 101 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: own life. How is my life doing? And then they 102 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: will judge, rightly or wrongly, the role of government based 103 00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:13,920 Speaker 1: on the status of their own condition. And for five 104 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: years now we have seen at super speed, the middle 105 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 1: class being pushed downward, the tippy top people being elevated. 106 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: The wealth divide in this country has never been greater, 107 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,160 Speaker 1: and the cost of living, the affordability of living, and 108 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:33,799 Speaker 1: the ability to take care of basic necessities is becoming 109 00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: more and more burdensome for regular people. Until that is solved, 110 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,000 Speaker 1: these poll numbers are not going to get any better 111 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 1: for Trump or whoever is in office after Trump, because 112 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,559 Speaker 1: people are not seeing their own lives be better. 113 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 2: And speaking of the status of your own life, when 114 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,119 Speaker 2: it comes to the economy and approval ratings, nearly seventy 115 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: five percent of Americans rate in the US economy as poor. 116 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 2: What's the number poor, fair, seventy five percent. Seventy percent 117 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 2: say the economy is on the wrong track. Now, Trump's 118 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: approval approval rating, and this is according to Decision Desk Headquarters, 119 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 2: it's at forty four percent, which is. 120 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 3: Right in the range. 121 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: Right we've said, it is probably not as low as 122 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: those that have him in the thirties. It's definitely not 123 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:20,239 Speaker 1: as high as people have him in the upper forties. 124 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: It's probably depending on the day and the event, he'll 125 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 1: probably get a little kick out of this thing with 126 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: Israel and Hamas until that blows up, which, by the way, 127 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,039 Speaker 1: how many times have we heard peace in our time? 128 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: Peace in the Middle East? This is the and then 129 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: a year later they're back to fighting with each other. 130 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 1: Later sometimes well, that's my point, right, And I highly 131 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 1: doubt that Hamas has just said in good faith, hey, 132 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: let everybody go, We're done fighting and let's turn this 133 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 1: into a new Las Vegas. I just don't I don't 134 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: know Hamas super well, I don't see that happening, and 135 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: I don't see that. 136 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,920 Speaker 3: Holy I hope it does. I think that'd be great 137 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 3: for the world. 138 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: But he'll get a little kick out of that, and 139 00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 1: then it'll disintegrate again as it all does, and people 140 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 1: will be back. 141 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 3: I think. I just I think it's all. 142 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: Economy based for the most part. You know, there are 143 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: other issues that factor into it. But Trump is not 144 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 1: doing what he promised to do in the campaign, which 145 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 1: is to get the affordability of living under control. He 146 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: has somewhat well, he hasn't. There has been a somewhat 147 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: slowing of inflation, but now they're about to recook the economy, 148 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: so that's going to blow up again in all likelihood, 149 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 1: and if you can't afford to live the quality of 150 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: life that you've previously lived, you're going to be pissed 151 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: off at the person in power, whoever that. 152 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 4: Is, okay. 153 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 2: So some more things that are happening with Donald Trump 154 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 2: besides what's going on with Israel. The Israeli cabinet, by 155 00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: the way, set to vote on the Gods the deal 156 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: that would bring the ceasefire and also the release of 157 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 2: the hostages within days. 158 00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 4: They're saying Trump. 159 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,239 Speaker 2: Is going to visit Walter Reed Medical Center on Friday morning, 160 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 2: and this visit includes a yearly check up and a 161 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 2: plan meeting and remarks with some troops. Now keep in mind, 162 00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 2: he did just have a checkup back in April when 163 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 2: the doctor said that he was in excellent health. 164 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 4: But he's going again. 165 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 3: Remember then they killed him off for a while. 166 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 1: They said his death was inevitable because he had bruising 167 00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: on his hands, her. 168 00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 4: Chronic venus insufficiency. 169 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: It appears to be just fine. As we told you, 170 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 1: he was probably going to be just fine. That faded 171 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: from memory pretty fast, isn't it. 172 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: He's also mentioned possible visits to Egypt this weekend, and 173 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 2: the trip would focus on those efforts to finalize that 174 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 2: peace agreement. 175 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 4: Okay, so what else is going on with your president? 176 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:38,959 Speaker 3: Oh? 177 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 2: That Nobel Peace Prize still once that the twenty twenty 178 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 2: five prize will be announced Friday, October tenth. He is 179 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 2: and awarded December tenth in Oslo, Norway. 180 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: Trump is fascinating because he largely appears, and this is 181 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: in many facets of Trump. It's very interesting. He largely 182 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: appears in his mind. He gets stuck in like an 183 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: eighties nineties mindset on things or whatever it was at 184 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: a certain moment in time. What it remains to him, 185 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: Like we've laughed about this with the Sagamore or the 186 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 1: wal Bash. I'm never getting a Sagamore of the Walbash. 187 00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: That's never going to happen. No governor is ever going 188 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: to bestow anything upon me. But the reality of that 189 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: award is it means a fraction of what it once did, 190 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: because that award used to be a very prestigious award 191 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:32,320 Speaker 1: that went to the highest best among our state and 192 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,360 Speaker 1: towards the tail end of Pence's governorship and certainly during Holcombe, 193 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 1: they just started handing him out to donors and political people, 194 00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: and like it was like, who are these people aren't 195 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: doing anything other than bettering you and their own existence? 196 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: Why are they getting this award that used to go 197 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: to people who served our state. 198 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 3: But so the mindset on it has to change. The ward. 199 00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: They've ruined it, They've deluded it by giving it to 200 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,840 Speaker 1: so many people who totally didn't deserve it. Same thing 201 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:01,559 Speaker 1: is true like the Nobel Prize, Like in his mind, 202 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: it's still nineteen eighty whatever, and this is some super 203 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: prestigious or need. 204 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 3: He so wants it. Yeah, it was vocal about it. 205 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 2: Yes, he calls himself the President of Peace. He won't 206 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,559 Speaker 2: be in the running this time. No matter what happens 207 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 2: with this Israel Gaza deal, that's not something that will 208 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 2: be considered for this round because nominations are submitted by 209 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: January thirty first. They had over three hundred and thirty 210 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:29,079 Speaker 2: candidates this time, and the committee keeps the nominees confidential 211 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 2: for fifty years, So if you want to consider what's 212 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 2: going on in the Middle East today, that would be 213 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: for next years. 214 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 1: But my question name was be why do you want 215 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,520 Speaker 1: this so bad? Look at some of the nutbags they've 216 00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 1: given this thing to, who have done the exact opposite 217 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,440 Speaker 1: of peace. Why do you want something so bad that 218 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,440 Speaker 1: means nothing anymore? Why is this the thing that you're 219 00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 1: so fixated on. 220 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 2: He said that the committee should give him the prize 221 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 2: and that he's deserved it four or five times, and 222 00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 2: in September he told CBS News, I don't seek attention. 223 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 4: I just want to save lives. 224 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: I don't seek attention. That's like me saying I don't 225 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,760 Speaker 1: seek attention. Give me a break, that's all that guy 226 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 1: does is seek attention. 227 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,839 Speaker 2: Okay, No, something that Donald Trump has been successful on. 228 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: For the fifth consecutive month, zero migrants were released into 229 00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 2: the United States interior by border patrol. 230 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 1: Now, that doesn't mean no illegal immigrants have entered the country, 231 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: let's be clear about that. 232 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:25,840 Speaker 2: Specific about that, Well, they're calling it a major achievement 233 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 2: because they're ending catch and release policy right right, And. 234 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 1: I'm not disputing that it's much better than what we 235 00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: had before. The border is dramatically improved under Donald Trump, 236 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 1: there's zero doubt about that. I think sometimes they want 237 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 1: the public to think though, that like there's no illegal 238 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 1: immigration going on, that is factually incorrect. What they're saying 239 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:46,080 Speaker 1: is when we catch these people previously under Biden, they 240 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: were just letting them go and saying we'll see in 241 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: two years or whatever your court date is. And that 242 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: is wonderful. They're not doing that anymore. That's a huge 243 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: win for our country. I just want to point out 244 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: there's still illegal immigration going on. It's not like they're 245 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: saying there's zero illegal immigration. 246 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 2: We still have a few more things regarding Donald Trump 247 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 2: to get to. But up next, we're going to be 248 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,360 Speaker 2: joined by Nicki Kelly from the Indiana Capitol Chronicle. 249 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,559 Speaker 4: It is Kendall and Casey. It's ninety three WIBC. 250 00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 5: Casey. 251 00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 3: So much going on with Indiana politics. 252 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 1: And governments, everything from the Vice president coming yes to 253 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: the city of Indianapolis to big doings in the Indiana 254 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: Secretary of State's race, a whole bunch Morelet just makes 255 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 1: some sense of as much as we can in the 256 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: time allotted to us. 257 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: We go to one of the best in the business. 258 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 1: Nicki Kelly from the Indiana Capitol Chronicle joins us now 259 00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: on the WIBC hotline. Okay, Nicki Kelly, you broke well. 260 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 1: I don't know if you technically broke, but I'm giving 261 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 1: you credit for breaking the JD vance coming to Indianapolis 262 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 1: to strong arm such a strong word with the Republicans. 263 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: What's the latest on what you're hearing? 264 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, we did break it, but yeah, so apparently it 265 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,080 Speaker 6: was supposed to be just Senate Republicans. Now some House 266 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 6: Republicans are invited as well. You know, it's interesting timing 267 00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 6: to be sure to send your vice president during a 268 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 6: federal government shut down to you know, address a political issue, 269 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:24,479 Speaker 6: you know, in another state. But we'll see. The senators 270 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 6: we talked to, at least one of them was interested 271 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 6: to hear him again, had heard him at the White 272 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 6: House in August, and so another one seemed a little 273 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 6: less convinced about the necessity of drawing new maps. And 274 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 6: that generally is what we've heard about the Senate Republican caucus, 275 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,080 Speaker 6: that they would rather just not do it. They don't 276 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 6: have the numbers there yet, and so that's what Jade 277 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 6: Vance is coming to try to change. 278 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: Adam ran of Politico and Portinvillad reported that basically, the 279 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,600 Speaker 1: White House has decided, we're fed up with Bray in Houston. 280 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 1: We've given you guys enough time to pull this off. 281 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: And it almost feels very sopranos like, like Polly Walnuts is saying, 282 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: go ahead and say it to my face, you want 283 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: your legs broken type of thing. 284 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 3: This seems very odd behavior. 285 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I think they're just they're not going 286 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 6: to let them just run out the clock without, you know, 287 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 6: which is essentially what they're trying to do. Republicans here 288 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:24,720 Speaker 6: are trying to run out the clock and not get 289 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 6: the face to face pressure from the Trump administration. And 290 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 6: they've done a good job, right We've been talking about 291 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 6: this for going on three months now. But you know, 292 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 6: I think the Trump Trump world, you know, looks at 293 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 6: a state with super majorities, and we could get this 294 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 6: thing through in you know, a couple of days, and 295 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 6: this is frustrated with the lack of movement. 296 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 2: Does the visit from JD. Vance mean anything? Will it 297 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: move the needle? 298 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 6: Who knows. I mean a few people were moved when 299 00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 6: they went to the White House and learned more. You know, 300 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 6: a few people have been moved along the way. I've 301 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 6: been told they haven't taken a whipcount, a formal whip count, 302 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 6: so I don't know exactly how far they are from 303 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 6: having enough votes to make it happen. So but I 304 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 6: know that, you know, there's certainly frustration on behalf of 305 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 6: the Trump world, and perhaps even in Governor Bron's camp. 306 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 6: I think he's been trying to let lawmakers lead, but 307 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 6: in the meantime that makes him kind of look like 308 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 6: less of a leader himself. Right to wait to call 309 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 6: this until he is given the go ahead instead of 310 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 6: acting like the chief executive of the state. 311 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: How big of a disaster would it be if he 312 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 1: calls the special session and it fails. 313 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:49,480 Speaker 6: Oh terrible, absolutely terrible. And I got to be honest, 314 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 6: I don't believe they would allow that to happen. I 315 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,080 Speaker 6: do believe they are certainly Republicans in both the House 316 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 6: and Senate who do not want the session, and we'll 317 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 6: argue against it behind closed doors. But if put on 318 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 6: the spot, happy to put their name up there with 319 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 6: a red light, I don't think they could to do it. 320 00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 1: Nikki Kelly from the Indiana Capitol Chronicle joins us, now, like, 321 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: is there new information? Have you gotten anything on what 322 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 1: he's going to say, because they already had their opportunity 323 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: to do this. 324 00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: Now. 325 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,400 Speaker 6: I don't think so, although you know that he didn't 326 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 6: get that there are like what over one hundred Republicans 327 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 6: and only a couple dozen went to the White House, 328 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:31,880 Speaker 6: so he can speak to a lot more here in 329 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 6: Indiana who would travel a couple hours in Indieapolis who 330 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,680 Speaker 6: didn't go to the White House in August. So I 331 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,320 Speaker 6: think that's what they're hoping is is to do that 332 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 6: face to face. 333 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 1: Okay, So then the other side of this is, of course, 334 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:47,560 Speaker 1: I mean, clearly there's not a barrage of people wanting this, 335 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: or they would probably do it, but there's also the 336 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: elections next year, the mid terms, which this is all 337 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 1: about for Congress. But then there's all these down ballot races, 338 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:59,840 Speaker 1: which includes things like the Secretary of State's race, which 339 00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: got a big jolt. Now you and The Star were 340 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: some of the first people to report on this at 341 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: link that bo Bay is is in the race. I'm 342 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:12,919 Speaker 1: excited about something that's interesting because so often these races, 343 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: especially state wides, are fairly one sided. 344 00:17:15,520 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 3: I think bo Bay makes it interesting. 345 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 6: What say you, Yeah, I mean I think we were 346 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 6: expecting it to happen, but having him formally throw his 347 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 6: name in the hat has definitely kicked up the interest. 348 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 6: He's already raising money and of course through his dad, 349 00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 6: he's got tons of connections to do that. And you know, 350 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 6: you've seen the immediate criticisms or attacks on him about 351 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,239 Speaker 6: you know, is he really a hoosier? And even I've 352 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,360 Speaker 6: seen some things about you know, his age and yes 353 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,919 Speaker 6: he's under thirty. But so I think it's a fascinating maneuver. 354 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,959 Speaker 6: I do find it interesting. You know, Diego was going 355 00:17:55,000 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 6: to have at least two competitors in the convention and 356 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,720 Speaker 6: still as of this moment, does have two competitors in 357 00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 6: the convention. I actually think that bo Bay's entrance into 358 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 6: the race means that Diego would be more likely to 359 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 6: get through the convention because because Republicans are going to 360 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 6: see a bigger name and someone who's going to be 361 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 6: able to raise money easily and think, well, we need 362 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,679 Speaker 6: an incumbent in there, someone who's shown his ability to 363 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 6: win statewide. 364 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 1: Okay, so that's interesting. We got into this at link yesterday. 365 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: We talked about on the State House happenings. Abdula and 366 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: I've talked about it. Jameritt and I talked about it. 367 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 1: What does that do to David Shelton, who, let's face it, 368 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: he's probably the most likely to defeat Diego at at convention. 369 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 1: Do Republicans, as you said, say well we need this 370 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:41,119 Speaker 1: name in this money or do they say, hey, Diego's 371 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:45,399 Speaker 1: a dumpster, scandal ridden, rotten individual. Maybe we've got to 372 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,880 Speaker 1: get a little more serious about who we we nominate. 373 00:18:48,119 --> 00:18:49,800 Speaker 1: You think they'll go the opposite way, which. 374 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:50,280 Speaker 3: Is go with the name. 375 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I don't. I haven't heard any other 376 00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 6: big names willing to challenge him in the convention. And 377 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 6: to be honest, if anyone challenged him. I mean, if 378 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 6: there's more than one person who challenges him, then it's 379 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 6: Diego's to win. You know, once you split the votes 380 00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:10,960 Speaker 6: of the opponents, you know, it's just a mass problem. 381 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,199 Speaker 6: And so they either have to clear the field with 382 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 6: one strong Republican Candidateainst Diego, or I think he's getting 383 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 6: through and it'll be a by Morales fall race. 384 00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 2: I want to talk about the money because you had 385 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 2: mentioned it that Bobai is coming in with a little 386 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 2: pocket change already. Do you recall ever a more expensive 387 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 2: secretary of race happening, because I believe this one's going 388 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:36,560 Speaker 2: to get up there. 389 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll be honest. There's not a whole lot of 390 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,920 Speaker 6: spending in sector of state's race races in the past, 391 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 6: so I'd have to look, you know, pretty closely to 392 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 6: see that. But it should definitely be up there, I 393 00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 6: imagine with the Attorney general race easily. So yeah, and 394 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,280 Speaker 6: I think this is Democrats almost sort of last hurrah. 395 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 6: I mean, the fact is, if this young, energetic, you know, 396 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,840 Speaker 6: political dynasty guy can't win in Indiana in a statewide 397 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,719 Speaker 6: you know, I think it will show a little bit 398 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 6: of a existential crisis, so to speak. 399 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:15,840 Speaker 1: A couple of minutes love with Nikki Kelly from the 400 00:20:15,880 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: Capitol Chronicle. You guys for years now have covered the 401 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 1: IEDC at length. This audit comes out, and it's very 402 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:27,600 Speaker 1: quiet from most of the elected officials. Have you guys 403 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: been able to get any Republicans on the record like saying, Hey, 404 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: this is egregious, this is horrible, this is awful. We 405 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,439 Speaker 1: got to do something. It seems like nobody wants to 406 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:36,399 Speaker 1: say much of anything. 407 00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:40,199 Speaker 6: I mean a lot of the names and people involved 408 00:20:40,320 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 6: in the IDC world and that audit are donors to 409 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:51,240 Speaker 6: variouspaigns and so, and obviously these were things that happened 410 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 6: under previous administration. So I think it's an easy out 411 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 6: for them to say, well, we've got new people in charge, 412 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 6: and we're taking over and we're going to have more 413 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 6: oversight and let's just turn the page kind of thing. 414 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 6: And so I think that's what you're seeing. I mean, 415 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 6: even if it wasn't your administration, you know, Republicans are 416 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:14,400 Speaker 6: never going to want to draw attention to malfeasons or 417 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:18,960 Speaker 6: questionable ethics in their own party. So I'm not too 418 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 6: surprised that the reaction has been muted. 419 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:22,320 Speaker 3: Bron was. 420 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 1: He said, well, if the legislature wants to do some 421 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:26,679 Speaker 1: sort of hearings on it, they're not going to do 422 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 1: any hearings on this, are they. 423 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 6: No. I've never seen sort of independent hearings, you know, 424 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 6: a LA Congress. That's just not something that's done. I mean, 425 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 6: so there be a bill in the session with more oversight, sure, 426 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 6: but you know, I can't imagine seeing sort of an 427 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 6: independent congressional overview kind of kind of investigation. 428 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: Hey, real quick, before we let you go, you guys 429 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: have covered this. Executions can take place tomorrow morning. 430 00:21:56,000 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 3: This guy who was is. 431 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: Slated to be executed's kind of folded his appeals and said, okay, 432 00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 1: give up, let's do this. Can you just very quickly 433 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: go into some detail what that's about. That seems very 434 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: odd for an inmate just to go, okay, I'm done. 435 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 6: Well he I mean, he could still try a last 436 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,399 Speaker 6: minute appeal based on just the overall sentence. But he 437 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 6: had been challenging the protocols with a lot of questions 438 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:25,399 Speaker 6: about the execution drug and is it compounded, is it manufactured, 439 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 6: which kind of impacts safety and viability? And after discovery, 440 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 6: some of which was kept secret, some of which has 441 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:35,720 Speaker 6: been public. You know, I think they realized they didn't 442 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 6: have the information to challenge it anymore. I think some 443 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 6: of what they were provided kind of muted their arguments, 444 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:47,399 Speaker 6: and so those issues at least have been put to 445 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 6: the side. And yeah, it definitely looks like by tomorrow 446 00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:55,480 Speaker 6: morning we will have performed our third execution in less 447 00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:56,360 Speaker 6: than a calendar year. 448 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 3: She is one of the best in the business. 449 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: Nikki Kelly from the Indiana Little Chronicles, she broke the 450 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: JD Vans Coming to Indianapolis story. 451 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 3: Thank you you guys have a great day. 452 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 4: Yeah you too.

Nine or ten? 455 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 3: Is it not? I think it is nine? 456 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 4: Okay? 457 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:32,359 Speaker 1: And what's happening? Like everything appears to be going just fine. 458 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 1: What was this supposed mass disruption that the shutdown was 459 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 1: gonna gonna cause? 460 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:42,240 Speaker 3: Because I'm on the ninth. 461 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 4: Day in your life, hasn't she? 462 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: And it's just kind of working right, Yeah, I as 463 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 1: standard operating for SOP as they call it in the 464 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:54,639 Speaker 1: in the business. When does the pain start getting felt 465 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: and when does it start getting inflicted because I can't 466 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: even get a clear answer on that. 467 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 2: Well, there's people that are furloughed right now now, so 468 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,000 Speaker 2: but they're going to get paid. Yeah, they'll get back 469 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 2: pay when they go back. 470 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 1: Sure, so they're getting paid. They're getting paid not to work, 471 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: So let's push them aside. Okay, what what's going on? 472 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 4: Well, it could disrupt my weekend plans? 473 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 2: Oh well, well, you know, Jim and I like to 474 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 2: go visit historical site. Sure, got that passport book where 475 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 2: we go get stamped.

He kind of put the squash on that 608 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 7: yesterday saying, look, our police officers can do the job. 609 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 7: If we can bring the state police into help, that's fine. 610 00:29:47,600 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 7: The real problem is the prosecutor. 611 00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 1: You think, though, if Trump wanted, for whatever reason, to 612 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:58,240 Speaker 1: make Indianapolis his next you know whatever focus, laser focus 613 00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:00,520 Speaker 1: or whatever, and we're doing this, you think Braun would 614 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: still stand behind that and go, no, we're not doing that. 615 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 7: I thought it would be a situation where if Braun 616 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 7: asked him, because hey, We're a Republican state. 617 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 5: State of Indiana has been good to you. 618 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 7: President Trump. Right now, our homicide rate is higher than 619 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 7: Chicago's bunch of factor in the population. So I think 620 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,720 Speaker 7: it would really look good on me as the governor. 621 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 7: I could use a few wins right now if we 622 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 7: were able to give you know, Joe hawk Set and 623 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 7: Ryan Meures a big middle finger and clean up Indianapolis. 624 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 7: And it never was a shot against the police, because 625 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 7: I think some of my police friends were like, dude, 626 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 7: we can do the job. 627 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 3: No, there's no doubt that you can. 628 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 7: But this whole process also involved bringing in federal prosecutors. Yeah, 629 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 7: because the guy that's the prosecutor right now, he's in 630 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:48,760 Speaker 7: no rush to put away bad guys, examples being the 631 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 7: dude that's been arrested ninety nine times. 632 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 1: All right, So let's get to what I about fell 633 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: off the couch when And at first I thought maybe 634 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: he's trying to be funny. It was a weird thing 635 00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 1: to be funny about. But I've gone back and listened 636 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,719 Speaker 1: to it, and then we get to the second thing. 637 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 1: He realized he wasn't kidding. He claimed he didn't know 638 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,440 Speaker 1: that the Vice president was coming to Indianapolis on Friday. 639 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 640 00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 7: I think he knew there was going to be some 641 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 7: sort of conversation, but I don't think he knew that 642 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:21,840 Speaker 7: jd Vance, the Vice President, was going to be the 643 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,320 Speaker 7: dude the captain, like bringing the brigade here.
