Speaker 1 (00:14):
Clean, sweet for the political left. Democrats win the governor's
race in New Jersey, in Virginia, the mayor's race. That's right, mom, Donnie,
the mayor elect in New York. They keep the Democrat
members of the Supreme Court in Pennsylvania, and Proposition fifty
passes in California, which means redistricting. Hey, Indiana Republicans, what now,
(00:39):
Tony Katz in ninety three WIBC, good morning, Good to
be with you, Marlands. They want fair maps, fair maps,
like fair is a thing. California said, we're just going
to engage a full paragraph because Texas did it. In Indiana,
(01:00):
it wants to say, well, we're not sure. You think
this isn't about you. You think this isn't about the country.
You think you don't have a park to play. You
think that somehow it's already fair. How in the world
is seven to two fair? Seven Republican districts? How is
that fair? Shouldn't we create a tenth district and then
make it five to five? That would be fair. Nothing
(01:22):
about drawing lines is fair. I only want grown ups
in the room. This is happening. Pay attention. Also happening,
women vote for progressives the exit polls as we're first
starting to see them, eighty one percent of women going
from Mamdanni in New York, eighty percent for Mickey Cheryl
(01:47):
in New Jersey, seventy eight percent for Abigail's Bamberger. There's
a story there also for mom Donnie Alex Soros, the
son of George Soros, listen lost. I only hope Republicans
are prepared to start working on the midterms, like we've
(02:07):
been talking about for months. I have not seen where
the Indiana Republican Party is doing this at all. They
could be doing things I don't know about, but maybe
they should start letting people know about them. Because if
the guy who shares so much of his time on
this thing called radio isn't aware of what's happening, you
could say it's because that guy isn't paying attention, but
(02:28):
it might be because you don't have anybody in a
comms department sharing the information. I'm gonna go with the latter,
you know, because I think it makes good sense. But
as for the losses, they're there, can't deny them. They
do tell a story, and part of that story is
(02:49):
not great for a midterm for them. Not only is
the face of your party. This communists are on, Momdani.
The face of your party is Jay Jones. That's right.
The attorney general candidate in Virginia who texts it not
only involved in a criminal case regarding a speeding ticket
(03:10):
and utilizing his own pack for his community service, but
the guy who wished death on the Republican Speaker of
the House and the death of that speaker's children. That
guy won. He's the Attorney general elect in Virginia. Communists
(03:32):
and people who wish for death get elected by Democrats.
So who wants to be a part of that party?
Oh sure, Trump's terrible, but here you are. Here, here
you go, America. That's a lot to deal with, and
(03:59):
you better believe that's gonna get used. Oh we also
have a government shutdown, but don't worry, not for long.
This was all ploy like we said. Tony Katz ninety
three WIBC, Good morning. Look at this. Democrats win one election.
(04:23):
Now I can't even play music anymore. Savagery is what
I tell you. Tony Katz ninety three wib C, good morning,
Good to be with you. I think it'd be a
little bit late to hit on some music. I don't
even know. I don't even know what I would I
would have no, no, no, you don't have to you
(04:44):
don't have to fill in. It happens. Sometimes the shutdown
maybe coming to an end because the shutdown was political
ploy to begin with, the talks to end the government
shutdown intensify. We thought that the shutdown was going to
end after the No Kings rally, just want to keep
up the momentum for No Kings. No, they wanted to
(05:06):
lie about Look who's trying to starve your children, Look
who's harming healthcare so they could hopefully get electoral victories
and get people out. And now they're gonna be like,
oh yeah, just kidding. It's like Johnny with the plug
and airplane, just kidding. So we now have the longest
(05:27):
shutdown ever. And be clear, I have stated before, you
don't know at the beginning, you didn't know many people
affected by the shutdown. But as air traffic controllers aren't
getting paid, military and getting paid. Now you've got the
whole issue regarding the snap benefits of food stamps, which
is something we have to address. Forty million people on
(05:48):
foodstamps is simply unacceptable, and part of that is who
exactly is on these foodstamps? Who's getting these benefits? And
should they be? And before people scream so you want
people to starve, their answer is I don't want people
getting benefits who'dn't pay in, who don't deserve them, who
don't need them, who are able bodied men and women.
The answers know, I don't. How dare you want that
(06:09):
for people? How obscene? How disgusting? How much you hate
a family in need, a mother in need, a child
in need, that you would put at risk our ability
to help them for somebody else who's abusing the system.
My gosh, you are a disgusting, filthy, ridiculous human being,
(06:29):
and there's no place for you at our table. You're
not good enough. If you're not willing to tell some
people who are abusing the system, they've got to go.
I can't get a Republican to talk like that. That's
all you gotta do, Just be normal, that's the right answer.
Can't get a Republican to talk like that. They're so scared.
(06:51):
The Democrats are can say you want children to starve,
you want grown men to eat instead of children. I
think that's messed up. That's very messed up and is
obscene from the political left, not wanting to take a
look at forty million people on food stamps and say
does that make sense. That doesn't mean it's a good program.
(07:13):
It means it's an abused program. But never leave it
to a Democrat to not want an abused program and think,
look at the good work we're doing. We have a
very fundamental difference in how we view the success of
a program. The left views a success by how many
people are on it. We would view success by how
many people are off of it. But the shutdown was
(07:39):
all about trying to get people out of the polls,
I guess, try and get people to show up and
make a difference in New Jersey and in Virginia. And
now that they got what they got, all right, we
could stop. They never cared about healthcare and subsidies. It
never mattered. Oh we're fighting again, Republicans who are trying
(08:01):
to take away your healthcare. They didn't care. We're fighting
for children. Didn't care. Still don't care. And they will
do this again, and they will do this again, and
they will lie again, and they will lie again, and
people will fall for the lie, most likely liberal white
women who live in West bro Clay. It's West Clay,
(08:23):
but it's like Berkeley, so it's West Brooklay. Yeah, you're
welcome coin that myself. So expect in the next forty
eight hours movement in that place. And you may have
seen yesterday and your social media feeds this plane crash
from ups in Louisville. This is just flat out horrifying.
(08:49):
I don't know if they have yet the totality of
what took place, but this UPS plane, I don't know
if it was a during takeoff. Thirteen minutes after takeoff,
the video it was heading from Louisville to Hawaii, lifted
(09:13):
off runway while one of its wings was on fire,
and there's video of this, and then it flipped on
its side. It crashed. The fireball was massive. You have
seven people dead and eleven injured. It's a horror scene
on every single level. I do not believe at least
(09:37):
the reporting I've seen early this morning didn't have anything
different regarding what caused the issue with the airplane. Absolutely
brutal story. Feel awful for everybody that is involved. And
as we have seen an other days, another drug boat
(09:58):
has been taken out by the Trump administration. Sixteenth strike
on a drug boat. The President has ordered more briefings
for Capitol Hill, meaning for Congress, on what it is
he's doing and why. But I don't think that's going
to change Congress and their view of if we've declared
(10:23):
war on Venezuela. You don't get to do that, mister President.
We do, and you're gonna have to come to us
because eventually we're going to start engaging the concept of
authority here and being the chief executive and being the
commander in chief doesn't actually give you this power in
(10:46):
the constitutionality of it. I'm going to argue that they're
correct in the idea that somehow you don't take out
drug boats. Our intel is so faulty that there are
no drugs on the boats that we're not here to
send the message. Some people view that as warmongering, and
I'm starting to understand exactly what I consider to be
(11:10):
the bad faith argument of the Tucker Carlson set talking
about war. The bad faith argument is is that somehow
you can resolve things without moments. The most recent was
we could have resolved World War two without Hiroshima or
(11:31):
is it a recognition of Hiroshima or Hiroshima. I guess
it depends on how you pronounce these things, but still
it wasn't right. I don't think the dropping of weapons
of atomic bombs is good, but we can't deny whether
or not it's necessary. And if you want to argue
(11:57):
that people are somehow crude or craven because they cheered
the end of a war, I don't think that that's accurate.
I think that that's saying that you are somehow above
it all. I admit that. I when Osama bin Laden
was reported killed and people were cheering in the streets,
(12:18):
I'm like, what am I looking at here? These were
people who suffered through September eleventh, and they were glad
that the guy who attacked them and their loved ones
was gone. I'm not a guy who cheers death and destruction.
It's just not my way. I look at what does
(12:41):
it take to end things against people who started things?
And sending drug boats to the United States is starting something.
Of course I want to end it as a matter
of fact. How come everybody doesn't want to end it?
But I'm going to argue that the President's gonna have
to go to Congress. And I don't think these briefings
(13:04):
are gonna change anybody's minds, at least not yet. I do.
I think that. In case you're wondering that bumper music
is Producer Carl coming on to you. He just wants
you to know that. Now, turn up a little. You
look beautiful tonight. He'd like to make a baby with you.
(13:26):
All right. Anytime, anytime you hear caroless to whisper, you know,
that's Producer Carl whispering into your ear. Hey, baby, Yeah
you do, now you know? Waiter road it Carl, Good job,
(13:49):
good job. Tony Katz ninety three, WIBC, Good morning. What
is going on? Everybody? This Colt's trade is insane and
I have many many questions. JMV is going to join us.
At seven h six, the Colts gave up two first
round picks twenty twenty six and twenty twenty seven. They
(14:11):
gave up eighty Mitchell for cornerback Sauce Gardner. Now, as
I know the story of this guy, he played his
college days in Cincinnati, and while he was at Cincinnati,
(14:32):
he was in charge in practice of guarding one guy,
Alec Pierce. So there is a history with these two
being on the same college team two first round picks.
This is the cult saying, you know what, we're seven
(14:52):
and two. We shouldn't have lost the first game. We
clearly didn't do enough to win the second game. We're
making a run, and we're making it right now. We're
making a run with Daniel Jones, And I question out loud,
and I could be wrong. I don't claim the expertise
(15:16):
here a move like this, taking on his contract like this.
Could this have happened if Jim Mersey was still alive?
Would Jim Mersey have been okay with this trade? Would
this have been allowed with anybody even thought of it?
(15:39):
Because now, what do I say? Do I say, my gosh,
Chris Ballard, general manager of the Colts, this is this
is a pretty big swing right here, pretty big swing
to ensure a defense that has more strength because we've
been a bend in a little bit break defense and
(16:01):
a strong offense. Well, when the offense can't be strong,
that little bit break means you lose six turnovers from
the Colts on Sunday and they only lost by a touchdown.
That's a story about this Colts team and something you
take with you going into Berlin this weekend. As they
face the Falcons and they'll have the bye week, and
(16:23):
I assume Gardner is going to be on the field
in Berlin. Someone's gonna, you know, put him on a plane.
He's gonna get off. They're gonna hand him a broughtwas
some sour kraut and say, go play. Could this trade
have happened if your Mersey was still alive? Would they
have even thought of it? Would they? Would? He have said? No,
I'm I'm fascinated, curious. But now here we are two
(16:50):
first round draft picks. No time like the present to
win kitten, not at all. Jamb joins me at seven
oh six to break it down even further. Cats ninety
three WIBC, Good morning. So today is the date that
Doc Brown set the DeLorean to go back to November fifth,
(17:10):
nineteen fifty five, and today is November fifth. Huh interesting?
Tony Katz ninety three, WIBC, Good morning, Good to be
with you. California voted to redistrict, Maryland is going to redistrict,
and Indiana Republicans are like, eh, yeah, I don't know
(17:39):
what you're doing. Kansas, by the way, isn't going to
have a special session. The announcement was from their House
Speaker Dan Hawkins. They tried to call a special session themselves.
Now it should be clear they can't do the special
session because they have a Democrat at a governor and
(18:02):
they weren't able to call a session in time. That's
how I understand the story in Kansas. It's just that
their next regular annual session is in January. So they
have not stopped thinking of redistricting. They just can't get
the special session done. The governor of Indiana called the
(18:25):
special session starting November third, and they're like, well, we
can't make November third. You know what, We'll bring it
to the beginning of December. That way, we'll fold into
regular session because it happens after organizing Day, right, that's
the day that kind of gets things started for the session,
and that happens on November eighteenth, And that way, by
bringing it all into one session, really it'll save the
(18:46):
taxpayers money. I think it's a punt. I think they're
trying to push away from redistricting in every single way.
One must know, just like what we learned from saw Lynsky,
(19:07):
that a plan has a result, and that result sometimes
doesn't work out the way you want it. To and
it's possible that you can redistrict and it won't actually
gain you any seats. But there can be no doubt
at all that they're doing it in California. They're doing
(19:28):
it in Maryland, and Democrats will do it in their states,
and they'll do it without any any hesitation, and none
of them will listen to Vigo County where they show
up to the special session for Senator Greg Good and
they say, this is a power grab. We don't want it.
It's not a powergram in California, of course it is.
Oh sometimes somehow it's moral because of what Texas did.
(19:51):
If Texas did it and it was bad, California shouldn't
do it. But they're doing it, and Democrats say good,
Maryland's doing it and Democrats say, good, what are we doing?
This is going to bite you bite who. I have
heard the argument from people I know, like in Trust
saying that redistricting will energize the Democratic Party in Indiana,
(20:19):
And I say to you, no, it won't energize them
to what energize them? How in what way? To what victory?
Where it's going to energize the voters to choose bo bye,
(20:48):
no diego morales will energize the voters to choose bo Bye.
So what are we discussing? What state house race do
you think is lost because of this? The Democratic Party
of Indiana doesn't run any local races on local issues
(21:09):
to engage local people. They don't engage Hoosiers. They run
top line races that come from the DNC. They always have,
and they do it in mayoral races. Take a look
what happened in Carmel with Miles Nelson and again Democrat
Miles Nelson. If you run anywhere, I'll be there. You
(21:32):
don't get to be elected in the state of Indiana
without a real fight. I might lose the fight every
now and again, but I will be there. Your political
career cannot continue with the way you acted in that
mayor's race against Sue Finkam. Nope, not now, not today,
not never, not ever. You listen to Ron klaim, you
(21:55):
should be ashamed of yourself, and that shame's gonna follow
you your whole political career. But I think that the
argument that somehow, if you vote for redistricting, it's going
to energize Democrats is one of the strangest things I've
ever seen. The argument is that we are afraid as
(22:20):
opposed to we are strong. Now you say to me,
I don't think that the redistrict is strong. I would
then ask the Republican Party what is do that? Try it?
Rod Bray and Todd Houston are two men I have
never spoken to. Todd Houston's the speaker of the House.
(22:43):
Rod Bray is a set of pro ten They leave
the House, they lead the Senate, and not one person
on their staff has reached out. Certainly not this year,
I would argue in the last five years. If there
is an errand email somewhere singular, I don't know it.
We've never had a conversation. But I can tell you
(23:04):
point blank, I see no leadership. I see nothing bold
on the horizon. Watching things now makes me say out
loud that Brian Bosma is a guy I should have
tipped my cap to a little bit more. I may
not have agreed about everything, but my gosh, you had
(23:26):
a sense that things were actually being run and that
there was a focus in that there was an understanding
of that of a of a of there was a leader,
there was somebody in charge. Which brings us back to
the special session, because if the Senate's gonna say, well,
you know, we know the governor called it for November third,
(23:47):
uh and or yeah, November third and and it's gonna
special sexual it takes a while, we'll just delay it
a bit. Is anybody can discuss the fact that if
Senate Republicans put this thing on a shelf, that Mike
Braun is effectively neutered in that regard. They kind of
showed him who's in charge. And Braun has done the
(24:10):
first thing that I really like, which is this whole
thing about nuclear I'll get into that from my first
read of it. So far, so good. If anything about
last night teaches you anything is that redistricting should take place,
is that we live in a political world. The problem
(24:32):
is some people think that they're above the politics, and
the political left does not. You think you are above it,
and you are wrong. It is a mistake and it
is not a sign of goodness. There is no such
thing as a fair district. The districts are drawn as
(24:53):
they're drawn, and they can be redrawn at any time.
And in the state of Indiana it is not unconstitutional,
as opposed to Virginia that has a state law against this.
Yet somehow they voted to redistrict in Virginia, there's gonna
be lawsuits. Oh wait, tillas watching that one. I don't
think you should wait until December, but I'm not going
to win that battle. I think you should redistrict, and
(25:16):
I don't think they're going to have time. And Indiana
Republicans should run the risk, not of what happens when
you energize Democrats, what happens when you energize Republicans and
conservatives and people of a thinking medal. You don't worry
about them. Maybe you should electorally speaking, of course, because
(25:38):
that's all there is
Clean, sweet for the political left. Democrats win the governor's
race in New Jersey, in Virginia, the mayor's race. That's right, mom, Donnie,
the mayor elect in New York. They keep the Democrat
members of the Supreme Court in Pennsylvania, and Proposition fifty
passes in California, which means redistricting. Hey, Indiana Republicans, what now,
(00:39):
Tony Katz in ninety three WIBC, good morning, Good to
be with you, Marlands. They want fair maps, fair maps,
like fair is a thing. California said, we're just going
to engage a full paragraph because Texas did it. In Indiana,
(01:00):
it wants to say, well, we're not sure. You think
this isn't about you. You think this isn't about the country.
You think you don't have a park to play. You
think that somehow it's already fair. How in the world
is seven to two fair? Seven Republican districts? How is
that fair? Shouldn't we create a tenth district and then
make it five to five? That would be fair. Nothing
(01:22):
about drawing lines is fair. I only want grown ups
in the room. This is happening. Pay attention. Also happening,
women vote for progressives the exit polls as we're first
starting to see them, eighty one percent of women going
from Mamdanni in New York, eighty percent for Mickey Cheryl
(01:47):
in New Jersey, seventy eight percent for Abigail's Bamberger. There's

son of George Soros, listen lost. I only hope Republicans

So who wants to be a part of that party?
Oh sure, Trump's terrible, but here you are. Here, here

(03:59):
you better believe that's gonna get used. Oh we also
have a government shutdown, but don't worry, not for long.
This was all ploy like we said. Tony Katz ninety
three WIBC, Good morning. Look at this. Democrats win one election.
(04:23):
Now I can't even play music anymore. Savagery is what
I tell you. Tony Katz ninety three wib C, good morning,
Good to be with you. I think it'd be a
little bit late to hit on some music. I don't
even know. I don't even know what I would I
would have no, no, no, you don't have to you

don't have to fill in. It happens. Sometimes the shutdown
maybe coming to an end because the shutdown was political

for Capitol Hill, meaning for Congress, on what it is
he's doing and why. But I don't think that's going
to change Congress and their view of if we've declared
(10:23):
war on Venezuela. You don't get to do that, mister President.
We do, and you're gonna have to come to us
because eventually we're going to start engaging the concept of
authority here and being the chief executive and being the
commander in chief doesn't actually give you this power in
(10:46):
the constitutionality of it. I'm going to argue that they're
correct in the idea that somehow you don't take out
drug boats. Our intel is so faulty that there are
no drugs on the boats that we're not here to
send the message. Some people view that as warmongering, and
I'm starting to understand exactly what I consider to be
(11:10):
the bad faith argument of the Tucker Carlson set talking
about war. The bad faith argument is is that somehow
you can resolve things without moments. The most recent was
we could have resolved World War two without Hiroshima or
(11:31):
is it a recognition of Hiroshima or Hiroshima. I guess
it depends on how you pronounce these things, but still
it wasn't right. I don't think the dropping of weapons
of atomic bombs is good, but we can't deny whether
or not it's necessary. And if you want to argue
(11:57):
that people are somehow crude or craven because they cheered
the end of a war, I don't think that that's accurate.
I think that that's saying that you are somehow above
it all. I admit that. I when Osama bin Laden
was reported killed and people were cheering in the streets,
(12:18):
I'm like, what am I looking at here? These were
people who suffered through September eleventh, and they were glad
that the guy who attacked them and their loved ones
was gone. I'm not a guy who cheers death and destruction.
It's just not my way. I look at what does
(12:41):
it take to end things against people who started things?
And sending drug boats to the United States is starting something.
Of course I want to end it as a matter
of fact. How come everybody doesn't want to end it?
But I'm going to argue that the President's gonna have
to go to Congress. And I don't think these briefings
(13:04):
are gonna change anybody's minds, at least not yet. I do.
I think that. In case you're wondering that bumper music
is Producer Carl coming on to you. He just wants
you to know that. Now, turn up a little. You
look beautiful tonight. He'd like to make a baby with you.
(13:26):
All right. Anytime, anytime you hear caroless to whisper, you know,
that's Producer Carl whispering into your ear. Hey, baby, Yeah
you do, now you know? Waiter road it Carl, Good job,
(13:49):
good job. Tony Katz ninety three, WIBC, Good morning. What
is going on? Everybody? This Colt's trade is insane and
I have many many questions. JMV is going to join us.
At seven h six, the Colts gave up two first
round picks twenty twenty six and twenty twenty seven. They
(14:11):
gave up eighty Mitchell for cornerback Sauce Gardner. Now, as
I know the story of this guy, he played his
college days in Cincinnati, and while he was at Cincinnati,
(14:32):
he was in charge in practice of guarding one guy,
Alec Pierce. So there is a history with these two
being on the same college team two first round picks.
This is the cult saying, you know what, we're seven
(14:52):
and two. We shouldn't have lost the first game. We
clearly didn't do enough to win the second game. We're
making a run, and we're making it right now. We're
making a run with Daniel Jones, And I question out loud,
and I could be wrong. I don't claim the expertise
(15:16):
here a move like this, taking on his contract like this.
Could this have happened if Jim Mersey was still alive?
Would Jim Mersey have been okay with this trade? Would
this have been allowed with anybody even thought of it?
(15:39):
Because now, what do I say? Do I say, my gosh,
Chris Ballard, general manager of the Colts, this is this
is a pretty big swing right here, pretty big swing
to ensure a defense that has more strength because we've
been a bend in a little bit break defense and
(16:01):
a strong offense. Well, when the offense can't be strong,
that little bit break means you lose six turnovers from
the Colts on Sunday and they only lost by a touchdown.
That's a story about this Colts team and something you
take with you going into Berlin this weekend. As they
face the Falcons and they'll have the bye week, and
(16:23):
I assume Gardner is going to be on the field
in Berlin. Someone's gonna, you know, put him on a plane.
He's gonna get off. They're gonna hand him a broughtwas
some sour kraut and say, go play. Could this trade
have happened if your Mersey was still alive? Would they
have even thought of it? Would they? Would? He have said? No,
I'm I'm fascinated, curious. But now here we are two
(16:50):
first round draft picks. No time like the present to
win kitten, not at all. Jamb joins me at seven
oh six to break it down even further. Cats ninety
three WIBC, Good morning. So today is the date that
Doc Brown set the DeLorean to go back to November fifth,
(17:10):
nineteen fifty five, and today is November fifth. Huh interesting?
Tony Katz ninety three, WIBC, Good morning, Good to be
with you. California voted to redistrict, Maryland is going to redistrict,
and Indiana Republicans are like, eh, yeah, I don't know
(17:39):
what you're doing. Kansas, by the way, isn't going to
have a special session. The announcement was from their House
Speaker Dan Hawkins. They tried to call a special session themselves.
Now it should be clear they can't do the special
session because they have a Democrat at a governor and
(18:02):
they weren't able to call a session in time. That's
how I understand the story in Kansas. It's just that
their next regular annual session is in January. So they
have not stopped thinking of redistricting. They just can't get
the special session done. The governor of Indiana called the
(18:25):
special session starting November third, and they're like, well, we
can't make November third. You know what, We'll bring it
to the beginning of December. That way, we'll fold into
regular session because it happens after organizing Day, right, that's
the day that kind of gets things started for the session,
and that happens on November eighteenth, And that way, by
bringing it all into one session, really it'll save the
(18:46):
taxpayers money. I think it's a punt. I think they're
trying to push away from redistricting in every single way.
One must know, just like what we learned from saw Lynsky,
(19:07):
that a plan has a result, and that result sometimes
doesn't work out the way you want it. To and
it's possible that you can redistrict and it won't actually
gain you any seats. But there can be no doubt
at all that they're doing it in California. They're doing
(19:28):
it in Maryland, and Democrats will do it in their states,
and they'll do it without any any hesitation, and none
of them will listen to Vigo County where they show
up to the special session for Senator Greg Good and
they say, this is a power grab. We don't want it.
It's not a powergram in California, of course it is.
Oh sometimes somehow it's moral because of what Texas did.
(19:51):
If Texas did it and it was bad, California shouldn't
do it. But they're doing it, and Democrats say good,
Maryland's doing it and Democrats say, good, what are we doing?
This is going to bite you bite who. I have
heard the argument from people I know, like in Trust
saying that redistricting will energize the Democratic Party in Indiana,
(20:19):
And I say to you, no, it won't energize them
to what energize them? How in what way? To what victory?
Where it's going to energize the voters to choose bo bye,
(20:48):
no diego morales will energize the voters to choose bo Bye.
So what are we discussing? What state house race do
you think is lost because of this? The Democratic Party
of Indiana doesn't run any local races on local issues
(21:09):
to engage local people. They don't engage Hoosiers. They run
top line races that come from the DNC. They always have,
and they do it in mayoral races. Take a look
what happened in Carmel with Miles Nelson and again Democrat
Miles Nelson. If you run anywhere, I'll be there. You
(21:32):
don't get to be elected in the state of Indiana
without a real fight. I might lose the fight every
now and again, but I will be there. Your political
career cannot continue with the way you acted in that
mayor's race against Sue Finkam. Nope, not now, not today,
not never, not ever. You listen to Ron klaim, you
(21:55):
should be ashamed of yourself, and that shame's gonna follow
you your whole political career. But I think that the
argument that somehow, if you vote for redistricting, it's going
to energize Democrats is one of the strangest things I've
ever seen. The argument is that we are afraid as
(22:20):
opposed to we are strong. Now you say to me,
I don't think that the redistrict is strong. I would
then ask the Republican Party what is do that? Try it?
Rod Bray and Todd Houston are two men I have
never spoken to. Todd Houston's the speaker of the House.
(22:43):
Rod Bray is a set of pro ten They leave
the House, they lead the Senate, and not one person
on their staff has reached out. Certainly not this year,
I would argue in the last five years. If there
is an errand email somewhere singular, I don't know it.
We've never had a conversation. But I can tell you
(23:04):
point blank, I see no leadership. I see nothing bold
on the horizon. Watching things now makes me say out
loud that Brian Bosma is a guy I should have
tipped my cap to a little bit more. I may
not have agreed about everything, but my gosh, you had
(23:26):
a sense that things were actually being run and that
there was a focus in that there was an understanding
of that of a of a of there was a leader,
there was somebody in charge. Which brings us back to
the special session, because if the Senate's gonna say, well,
you know, we know the governor called it for November third,
(23:47):
uh and or yeah, November third and and it's gonna
special sexual it takes a while, we'll just delay it
a bit. Is anybody can discuss the fact that if
Senate Republicans put this thing on a shelf, that Mike
Braun is effectively neutered in that regard. They kind of
showed him who's in charge. And Braun has done the
(24:10):
first thing that I really like, which is this whole
thing about nuclear I'll get into that from my first
read of it. So far, so good. If anything about
last night teaches you anything is that redistricting should take place,
is that we live in a political world. The problem
(24:32):
is some people think that they're above the politics, and
the political left does not. You think you are above it,
and you are wrong. It is a mistake and it
is not a sign of goodness. There is no such
thing as a fair district. The districts are drawn as
(24:53):
they're drawn, and they can be redrawn at any time.
And in the state of Indiana it is not unconstitutional,
as opposed to Virginia that has a state law against this.
Yet somehow they voted to redistrict in Virginia, there's gonna
be lawsuits. Oh wait, tillas watching that one. I don't
think you should wait until December, but I'm not going
to win that battle. I think you should redistrict, and
(25:16):
I don't think they're going to have time. And Indiana
Republicans should run the risk, not of what happens when
you energize Democrats, what happens when you energize Republicans and
conservatives and people of a thinking medal. You don't worry
about them. Maybe you should electorally speaking, of course, because
(25:38):
that's all there is
