Speaker 1 (00:00):
You ever know one of those people who kept threatening
to do something.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Uh huh.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
If you don't then I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
If you don't, then I'm gonna uh huh. Oh, you
better believe me it's going to happen this time.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Then they what don't stick to their boundaries.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
And it never happens.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Part of it is that you actually have to do that.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Yeah. Part of it is you were never going to
do that.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
And once again on Friday, we have heard for six
months about all of these people that supposedly are for
this mid cycle redistricting. We have now dubbed it the
Jennifer Ruth Green Election Act of twenty twenty five, in
which the Republicans are trying to alter their maps to
elect totally unethical Jennifer Ruth Green to the first congressional district,
(00:42):
a woman so unethical that she was blown out of
her cushy two hundred and seventy five thousand dollars taxpayer
funded cabinet position in eight months because she has the
ethics of Tony Soprano. Look, government is hard to screw up, right,
because everybody knows who everybody else is when you go
in there. The idea that you, as a high ranking official,
can get blown out for unethical behavior. You have to
(01:04):
be the worst of the worst. And this is what
they're doing. They're trying to rig these maps that first
congressional district to elect this woman who can't win the election.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
On her own.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
So we have henceforth, it's no longer mid cycle redistricting.
We are dubbing it. We're calling it what it is,
the Jennifer Ruth Green Election Act of twenty twenty five.
And so we have heard for six months now, Oh,
there's so many people who really want the Jennifer Ruth
Green Election Act to pass. They're all for it. This
is rigged, and that's rigged. And we kept saying, well,
(01:35):
where are these people. They don't show up in polling.
Polling overwhelmingly shows that Hoosiers are against the Jennifer Ruth
Green Election Act. Every public opinion poll that's been released,
including multiple ones done by Republican pollsters, have shown this.
We were told, well, the polls are rigged. Nobody polls me.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
Well.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
There have been multiple town halls, including one by an
undecided Senator Gray Good, which byay I was told the
other day. Greg Good, Senator of Tara Hate got a
personal phone call from Donald Trump.
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yeah. Trump has called out nine different Republicans states.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
No, no, no, not called out called him, called him like, hey,
you better do this now. Greg Good and the Tarah
Hate senator in his town hall seventy to zero against redistricting.
Do you know how pathetically laughably weak you would look
if you had a town hall and it was seventy
to zero and you didn't do what the results of
(02:30):
that town hall were. But the point is nobody showed
up to speak there in favor of it. So you've
got numerous public opinion polls where these people have it emerged.
You've got the townhold and there were other town halls
that people overwhelmingly were against the Jennifer Ruth Green Election Act.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
And then you've got these rallies.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Were the first one, they had like thirty people there
and it was all the same face as we normally
see at these things. So nobody different, nobody knew, no,
not a ton of people coming out, very few new
different people coming out. And then Turning Point USA said hey,
we want in on the Jennifer Ruth Green Election Act.
So Turning Point USA, this mega force in United States
(03:11):
Politics hosts a rally Friday, and we're told, oh, it's
gonna be great. Casey, I've seen the aerial photos, so
nobody can accuse of manipulation. Abdul posted them, Adam Wrinn
posted them. There were maybe maybe, and I'm being super generous,
one hundred people there. Certainly, when you exclude the turning
(03:32):
Point USA people and the media, they maybe got one
hundred people.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah. They warned that they were going to spend heavily
on primary challenges against senators who oppose the redistricting.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
If you believe that at this point, you are one
of the dumbest people imaginable. How many times have we
heard threats from these people as it relates to redistricting and.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
They can never show you.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
These people, look, you can spend ten goajillion dollars if
you want. It's laughable to think in a midterm election
turning Point USA is going to be wasting money and
resources or Donald Trump is going to be wasting money
and resources that he will actually need to keep the
House on Indiana primary elections. That's laughable. Not happening, certainly,
not in twenty twenty eight, which many of these people
(04:14):
are up for. But the idea that Turning Point USA
is going to do what they're gonna They're going and
say what they're going to say. What you should vote
against this version because he did what you wanted. What's
the argument you can send. You can spend ten million
dollars if you want, but what's the argument that's gonna
move people. He didn't do what you said you wanted.
You should vote him out. It's laughable. These people are laughable.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
So Governor Braun, he said that anybody who is anti
redistricting is out of sync with conservatives and may face
a clean house if they resist. You had rally organizers
the Turning Point USA, people saying you need to call
your state senator, you need to leave them handwritten messages.
And then you had Donald Trump who said that anybody
(04:58):
who doesn't support the new map is not a real
Republican and he also threatened to support challengers.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
Now, oh oh, let's come back to Trump for a second.
So Donald Trump who endorsed Andrew Cuomo in the mayor's
race for New York when there was a Republican running,
Andrew Cromo, the horribly corrupt, rotten former governor of New York,
who had to resign because he couldn't keep his hands
to himself. Donald Trump endorsed him running for mayor of
New York. And he's going to tell people what a
(05:27):
real Republican is now, because I was told very clearly
that you're not a Republican in good standing unless you
if you advocate for anybody other than Republicans. So now
he's the expert on what a Republican in good standing
is or what a real Republican is. If you say no,
I'm kind of okay with the way things are now.
And I think things are already kind of tilted in
(05:49):
favor of the Republicans, which is okay. It happens in
every state in the Union. I'm kind of okay with
the way they are now. You're now not a real Republican.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Yeah, according to Donald Trump, you're not a real Republican.
Speaker 3 (06:00):
Accept that premise.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
If you stopped sending me literature asking for money, all
of these people send me all the stuff. Stop sending
me stuff asking for money, mister Trump. No more letters
about how you need my help to save America. If
I'm not a real Republican and I'm a bad guy,
you know what I say, never stop asking for the money. Casey,
never stop sending the letters asking for the money.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Well, they're going to need money to primary people.
Speaker 3 (06:23):
That's right here, clearly.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
So Senator Mike Young, he said that you're bound to
the caucus.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Which is hilarious. So Mike Young, we've told you who
Mike Young is. He's a Republican. I guess he's a
Republican in the Republican Caucus again from Indianapolis, the Speedway,
Plainfield area, south south side. And he just a couple
of years ago famously, and I had to go. I
cited the numerous news source. I thought maybe M'd suffered
(06:51):
a head injury and was imagining this. I did send
it to you. You read it, you did. He walked
out of the Republican caucus over the abortion issue because
he was mad the abortion bill wasn't strong enough. Right now,
look all the things I'm critical of of the Indian Republican.
Speaker 3 (07:06):
Party, the abortion law is not one of it.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
I feel like they have a very pro life, mainstream
American position. Mike Young was mad that it wasn't strong enough.
And am I reading Am I reading this wrong? That
that story he left the Republican Caucus, right.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
July twenty six, twenty two, Young says he will no
longer caucus with the super majority.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
So is he back in? Did he quietly just re enter.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Himself back into the caucus, because what does he say
in this wish TV article that you you can't go
against the caucus?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Right?
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Yeah, but he literally went against the caucus and left.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
The caucus, right he said, And our rule has always been,
if you have a majority of the caucus, you're bound
to the caucus. We'll see if they want to cancel that.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
Well, okay, so let's let's go into this for seconds.
Speaker 2 (07:50):
When it's his thing, it's okay to leave. But when
it's not his thing, you gotta stay with the caucus.
Speaker 3 (07:55):
And thing about this, you're bound by the caucus.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
So if you if you have any if there's a bill,
what he's trying to say based on that quote, Now, look,
Mike Young is very long in the tooth. He's been
there since the earth was young. He may be slipping.
He may not have the mental capacity he once did.
He may he may have said something he didn't mean
to say. I don't know. I mean, maybe he needs
one of those examinations where they make you say the
(08:19):
three things back after a certain period of time, and
see how he does with that. But he's saying, read
the quote again, because I don't want to be accused
of misquoting Mike Young.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Do you want to read the twenty two quote when
he left the car? No?
Speaker 3 (08:33):
No, no, the current, no no, the wish.
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Let's try just telling everybody else they can't leave.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Well, let's reread them both. We got nothing but time here.
Let's read them both.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Okay. So this is going back to July of twenty two,
and this was in regards to the abortion bill. He said,
I am informing you that I will no longer caucus
with the group. Okay, although I will no longer caucus
with you, I will remain a conservative Republican.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
That was twenty So he's out of the caucus. I
did not imagine this.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
See I could pass that test they give you to say. Okay,
So he did leave the caucus.
Speaker 3 (09:06):
Okay, very good.
Speaker 2 (09:07):
And then we forward to yesterday, December seventh, twenty twenty five.
And our rule has always been, if you have a
majority of the caucus, you're bound to the caucus. We'll
see if they want to cancel that.
Speaker 1 (09:22):
What's this wee stuff. Does he have a mouse in
his pocket? Because he clearly left the caucus now. Look,
Mike Young is irrelevant. He's a dithering old adult. He
passed his usefulness twenty five years ago. He's been there
since I was two years old. He is the worst
of the worst. He's irrelevant in this though. But we're
pointing out how hypocritical and ridiculous these people are and
(09:42):
how they just make it up, they pull it out
of their asses. They're going along because three years ago
he didn't want any part of these people. Now he's
telling you what you have to do. Now it's all
us and we again. According to that quote, And what
is he saying. Is he saying out loud that if
you have any independent thought, if you think for yourself,
and you're like, hey, I get that, I'm a Republican,
(10:02):
but this doesn't work for my people. It's really gonna
be harmful for them. I'm out on this. If the
caucus is for it, you can't say no. But it
has to be forty to zero on every single vote.
We're out of the club. You hear it, like, when
we're saying this out loud, how ridiculous it is.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
He went on to say, we may not think it's fair,
but fairness doesn't have anything to do with redistricting. We
have to play in the game. We have no choice
whether we want to or not.
Speaker 1 (10:28):
Well, you don't. You can do whatever you want. You're
the lawmaker, You make the choice. Isn't it fascinating? And
this is the sort of the Like I said, this
isn't going to fix itself until the people are This
is not gonna fix itself until the people. Well, let's
take a break. I want to talk about a conversation
I had yesterday because this is going to tie into
this about when the people decide they've had enough, which
(10:51):
I think we're getting close to, and what that actually
looks like in this country. Because these politicians have done
such damage, they are about to open opened the doors
to some extreme lunatics in this country because the people
are no longer have any reason to be invested in
the system because of idiots like Mike Young,
You ever know one of those people who kept threatening
to do something.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Uh huh.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
If you don't then I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (00:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:06):
If you don't, then I'm gonna uh huh. Oh, you
better believe me it's going to happen this time.
Speaker 2 (00:10):
Then they what don't stick to their boundaries.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
And it never happens.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Part of it is that you actually have to do that.
Speaker 3 (00:15):

do that.
