Speaker 1 (00:12):
So because I shouldn't say it that way.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
I'm trying to figure out a way to be polite
about this, and I'm not particularly interested in it, so
in that I don't believe I have to do so.
Tony Katz ninety three WIBC, Good morning. Redistricting and property
taxes are two different things. And if people want the
State of Indiana to bring down property taxes, which is
(00:41):
exactly what I want, let's go organize and let's go
pressure these members of the General Assembly to lower property taxes.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Let's go.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Who's taking the lead on this, who's organizing this, what's
the bipartisanship on this?
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Tell me where to be. I'm all in. The property
tax issue is a big issue. It is a large deal.
And yes, the General Assembly failed on the subject.
Speaker 2 (01:09):
There is no question here. I'm not in debate about that.
The argument of you can't talk about redistricting because of
property taxes is a child's argument made by Democrats. Oh oh,
throwing bombs this morning, am. I two subjects can exist
(01:32):
at the same time. My conversation about redistricting has no
bearing on where I am regarding property taxes or my
carrying on the subject. The redistricting issue is about calling
the special session and saying, should we change the boundaries
in the state of Indiana. And I vote yes, and
(01:54):
I believe the General Assembly should vote yes, and I
believe the General as semi we should vote yes because
Nancy Pelosi is telling you that this is a good idea.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
That added five seats, which meant members had to give
up some of their Democrats to do that.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Zoe Lafgan our chair.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
Of our caucus and PD Aguilar is the chair of
the bigger caucus. They they led the way on this
though has just been remarkable. So our delegation had to
vote for this the state legislature House and Senate on
the leadership of Speakerrebas and pro tem Leader of the
Senate Maguire. They then supported what we sent them. And
(02:42):
then of course Gavin Newsom carried the ball down the
field is carrying the ball down the field, and we're
very proud of that. But everybody, since we're all into it,
people have you know, you have to own the ground
to win an election, so everybody has a vested interest
in California and doing this. So it's we had a plan.
If other states have a plan to do, But you
(03:05):
know we only need three seats to win, to think,
Hakum the Speaker unders.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
I'm sick and tired of trying to drag you guys
into a rational point of view. And I'm talking about everybody,
not just those in the General Assembly, everybody who thinks.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
That redistricting its oh, oh my gosh, how dare you?
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Their plan is to steal as many seats as they
can to make Hakeem Jeffries the Speaker, you think it's
beneath you in Indiana to redistrict. Look at the fight
that you're in. Do you not see what's happening. Well,
this wouldn't happen if Texas was Texas can do what
Texas does, and if it was contained to Texas.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I wouldn't even be in this place because I wasn't
in this place.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Until California decided they were going to redistrict as retaliation.
What makes you think it's gonna start with California? Nancy
BLOWSI just told you there's a plan.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
She just told you.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Everyone's got a vested interest except for the Republicans in
Indiana who want to think they're above it all.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
And we don't need to redistrict here.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
I need you to learn how to fight, and right
now you're not doing the jobs.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
So allow me to remind you you need to learn
how to fight. This is what you're up against.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
And you're gonna tell me that somehow it's beneath you. No, no, no, no.
Not doing it is insane. We should be redistricting. We
should at the very least have the special session and
hold the vote. I've had people on my social media feed.
You're say you're a conservative, believe in physical responsibility, all
the money wasted. I can cut seventeen progressive programs in
(04:41):
the state of Indiana.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
By throwing a dart at a board. You're gonna tell
me about the money, Sit down, be quiet. It's a
silly argument. I'm paying no attention to it.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
I am paying attention to the fact that redistricting needs
to happen.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
I am in favor of it.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
Maybe I'll lose the fight, but my argument to sound,
and it has nothing to do with property taxes.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Now, I want the people who want to lower property.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Taxes, me being one of them, to organize, walk.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
Into the state House and demand it.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Stop complaining from the sidelines, go do the thing.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
I'm with you, I'm there, tell me where to be.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
But my conversation about redistricting is directly to those elected officials.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
This is the fight, kids, Go fight. Tony Katz ninety

Remodeling dot com. The popcorn moment, let's go, let's go,
let's go, let's.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
Go there it is.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
It's a story you need to hear to believe than
grab your popcorn, because there is more uh this story
about the Pentagon Press Pentagon changing the rules heccess Press
Office outlining new rules requiring Beat reporters to sign a
pledge not to obtain or use on authorized material, even
(07:33):
if the information is unclassified, and any journalist who doesn't
sign the pledge risks losing physical access to the Pentagon,
and so ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, and Fox refuse to sign.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
The statement.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
Says today, we joined virtually every other news organization declining
to agree to the Pentagon's new requirements, which will restrict
journalists ability to keep the nation in the world in
forbes of important national security issues, the policies without precedent
and threatens core journalistic protections. We will continue to cover
the US military as each of our organizations has done
for many decades, upholding the principles of a free and
(08:13):
independent press.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Yeah, I would argue.
Speaker 2 (08:19):
They're right in that if if there's a real question
about if you're given some kind of information that could
help the enemy, should should you publish that? If you're
given information that could harm the United States, should you
publish that? I think that that's a constant, legitimate conversation,
and one about well what does the journalist do.
Speaker 1 (08:39):
I have this information, if.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
It was obtained because someone gave it to you, well
what do you do? Well, this is really about shutting
down leaks. That's a problem for the Pentagon, and certainly
that is part of the reason to replace people across
the media landscape, across the the the governmental landscape, who
(09:04):
are involved for issues of ideology and narrative and not
based on what's best for the nation. But I'm a
journalist and I get this information, and now if I
print it, I don't get access.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
No, no, no, I'll do this from the outside.
Speaker 2 (09:20):
I think I think that this is something that that
heck Seth is going to lose on. We'll see how
it plays out. But the story I want to share
with you with Cheryl Hines on the View where she
is the wife of the Secretary of Health and Human
Services Robert F. Kennedy Junior, and they're asking her about
his conversations about Tyler and Alsee to metafin and autism
(09:42):
and now women who are pregnant.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
They're not sure what to take and and they start
pressing her about her husband.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Well, they they said, consult your doctor before taking it.
Speaker 1 (09:57):
That was the.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
That's what they were saying, and that holds. So I agree. Listen,
I've been pregnant. I understand it's stressful being pregnant. I
found because you're so concerned with everything. I didn't drink
caffeine when I was pregnant. So to say, hey, you know,
consult your doctor before you take this, I agree with that,
(10:22):
And I think that's okay for moms to here. Sure, Yeah,
go ahead, all.
Speaker 5 (10:27):
Right, I am this This is not your fight really
to be fighting.
Speaker 1 (10:33):
This is your.
Speaker 3 (10:33):
Husband's thank you forchnology.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
I just I do want to say, you know, he's
not a doctor. And he's not a professional. Yes, and
oftentimes when he's talking. Oftentimes when he's speaking, he is
speaking not with the best information that we can get because.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
We pie Goldberg has decided she's got the best in
and starts with listen, it's this your husband here. But
let me tell you how terrible he is to its
Cheryl hines, to.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
Her credit, as you know, yeah, we could do a
lot better with health stuff, and there's a lot of
stuff he can do, and some of the things he's
suggested take it out of the hands of my doctor
and me and my obg ys and me. And I wonder,
(11:28):
does it give you pause? And are you able to say,
you know, that might not actually be so because I've
got my experience and I've done lived with this and
I'm still here. So are you able to have those
conversations with him?
Speaker 4 (11:42):
I am able to have those conversations. And just to
be clear, of secretarias of HHS have not been doctors,
but they've got a sign a great Yeah, you know,
one of Obama's secretary a HHS was an economist.
Speaker 5 (12:03):
But most the majority of them that haven't had medical
backgrounds have a wait, science don't do anything else.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
Don't.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
And now they go to break because Cheryl Hines just
put Whipy Goldberg and Sunny hosted in the trunk.
Speaker 1 (12:16):
Here are the facts. Oh no, no, no, no, no,
they have science backgrounds.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
No they don't, Javier, but Sarah didn't have a science background.
No they don't. Necessarily, it's a political position. So they're
trying to push a narrative against her husband as opposed.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
To what does the data tell us.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
By the way, this conversation about toylan Owen and pregnancy didn't.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Come out of nowhere. It came out of other studies.
Speaker 2 (12:44):
That they're looking at differently and addressing differently. Was it
I think released in a clumsy way? One could argue that.
But there is a basis for all of this. So,
I mean, she's Cheryl and I don't agree politically, neither
did Robert. I'm Kenny Junior and I but my gosh,
she handled herself. Well there, Hey, we know it's your husband,
(13:07):
but let's talk about what a moron he is and
how wrong he is on everything. Because we're two women
on TV and we're experts. This isn't the first time
Whoopie Goldberg's been doing a fact check and then got
her stuff handed to her and Sonny Houston.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
I haven't played a view clip.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
In a while, and there's a reason, and I probably
won't for a while either.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Today on the marketplace, Oh it's not just a Stanley.
Speaker 2 (13:34):

hot drinks hot or your cold drinks cold.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
Yeah, it's the Alphaba version because it's in green.
Speaker 6 (16:13):
Oh wow, that's.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Brand new Stanley Alpha. But twenty ounce no dents or
scratches as opposed to Matt Bear himself. Rim has a
very tiny scuff exactly like Matt Bear himself.
Speaker 1 (16:25):
I tried to get in the picture but couldn't.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
Oh no, they meant the scuff. They weren't trying to
get themselves in the picture. They're trying to get the
scuff in the photo.
Speaker 6 (16:35):
Okay, this is a really cool cup.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
I mean, is it a cool cup?
Speaker 6 (16:38):
Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 7 (16:39):
I'd never seen a Stanley before in my life. I know,
Yeti's are really expensive, so I had imagined this might
be like somewhere in the same ballpark. So if you
can get a deal in the marketplace, yeah, buy your Stanley,
keep your drink as a drink.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
Would you pay seventy dollars?
Speaker 2 (16:57):
No, well, terrible price getting the Stanley alphaba the Stanley
forty ounce stainless steel h two O flow state quencher Tumblr.
Speaker 7 (17:12):
I don't even know what makes this a wicked cup
other than that it's green. I'm looking at the logo
and it's a bear with a halo and angel wings.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
So well, and whenever I think of bears, I think
of angel wings and a halo.
Speaker 6 (17:25):
What do you think of you know America?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Right? We need a picture of Matt bear with a
halo and angel wings.
Speaker 6 (17:33):
No, it's about time. Hey, I can do anything.
Speaker 7 (17:36):
I'm just looking at I don't see the value in
seventy five dollars unless I knew more about the Stanley cup,
and I think i'd researched before I buy, but then buy.
Maybe that would be the logical progression there.
Speaker 2 (17:47):
Just so you know, a target sells the forty ounce
version for fifty five dollars.
Speaker 6 (17:53):
But that's not the special edition in alphabe Wicked Witch.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
Yeah, and they're sold out that you can't even get one.
This one's they say, is the twenty ounce version. They're
selling for seventy five dollars.
Speaker 6 (18:04):
How long have these been hot? I've never heard of
the Stanley cup. Why haven't I heard of this?
Speaker 1 (18:09):
I don't know exactly how long have you been old?
Speaker 6 (18:12):
I don't know that's as long.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
As they've been hot.
Speaker 6 (18:15):
That's relative, you know, it's been a couple of years.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Sure could say tail end of COVID.
Speaker 6 (18:19):

I mean, not quite there yet.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
So are you saying you're not a buyer at seventy
five dollars a cool cup?

I just don't know. There's seventy five dollars. I don't
have that casual.
Speaker 7 (18:30):
Aid around, So no, I don't want to cop I'd
rather spend it on something else.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
It promises all day hydration.
Speaker 6 (18:36):
Well I can get that from a hose, you know.
Well said, Yeah, it's true.
Speaker 2 (18:41):

Speaker 1 (19:58):
Ways what you didn't know about Tony back then, and
to my wife who might be listening to this. Good choice,
very good choice.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
There is a story I was sharing yesterday on Tony
Katz Today that requires us to revisit today, and it
is the data that shows that everything that was ever
discussed on this program by many others about the trans
(20:33):
world and social contagion was accurate. That the abuse of
children is unacceptable, that it is our job to fight
against these people who want to make claims of gender
affirming care and ensure that any hospital that would want
to engage a procedure of mutilating children is no longer
(20:54):
a hospital, and those doctors are no longer doctors. Don't
tell me about their MD and somehow I have to
listen to that. Hell, no, they're monsters. The people who
want to abuse children, mutilate children are monsters, and we
as a society need to stop them. No society that
abuses children can thrive. It can't. And as we saw
(21:20):
twenty twenty, twenty twenty one, twenty twenty two, my gosh,
look at everybody identifying as transit trans that we understood
that this was social contagion. Kids were confused. Well, here's
the answer. Kids wanted the attention everything so many ways.
This was ugly and deceitful and wrong, and you had
(21:43):
adults playing into this, and a political figures playing into this,
playing into mental illness.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
Pure evil, awful and sinful and terrible. I cannot think
of enough words I can utilize on radio to describe this.
Data shows.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
That from a height to just before twenty twenty three,
of almost ten percent the sheriff students not identifying as
male or female. Oh, I'm non binary. Oh I'm this,
Oh I'm that I'm gender fluid. All the rest that
number has dipped to between two and four percent, less
than four percent. Why is that I thought just this
(22:25):
was the natural way it was. Why is that? It
is because everyone is realized that this is obscene. Everyone
whose rational has realized that you don't abuse children. And
this is what it is. That gender firming care was
a lie. It's always been a lie into any group
in Indianapolis or in Indiana that's trying to make the
(22:46):
claim that they do this, you are abusing children. If
you want to fight me on this subject, I'm in.
You can't hide behind the line gender firming care.
Speaker 1 (22:57):
Get bent.
Speaker 2 (23:00):
I'm stating for the record that the people who utilize
gender affirming care are the people who are the ones
who seem to condone abuse of children. And the data
shows that everything is trending down, everywhere, every subject.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
Trending down. This is very very good news.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
If you take a look at the proportion of non
binary by cohort trending down. How about the idea of
anxiety or depression. In twenty twenty three, almost forty percent
of students saying they were anxious, and over fifteen percent
of students saying the depressed. Twenty twenty five under thirty
(23:54):
percent anxious, ten percent depressed, numbers that I think are
still too high, although I don't know how they would
rank up against the last twenty years.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Let's say, I don't know how long the state has
been going.
Speaker 2 (24:04):
On, but going in the right direction. Parents getting a
hold of the situation. Parents pushing aside these horrible people
in education and other places.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Those who are saying, well, we'll just tell everybody you're
a girl and it's fine.
Speaker 2 (24:21):
Those who are saying it's okay that a man competes
on the women's swim team and the girls just have
to take it.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
No, they don't.
Speaker 2 (24:27):
They don't have to just lay back and take it.
And I'm overjoyed that they haven't.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
This is a.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Society getting healthier, smarter, better, steering away from the nonsense. Excellent,
excellent news, and parents, keep up the fight. Your kids
are worth it.
