• 1:36
  Speaker 1: go this.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: It's the story you need to hear to believe.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: And then grab your popcorn because there is more. Of course,
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: redistricting has been a front and tender story, and redistricting
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: became once again a front and center story when the
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Republicans in Indiana, led by Rod Pray in this in
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: the state Senate said you know what, we're not going
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: to uh, we're not going to have this special session
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: and we're not going to bring this up.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: We're not going to vote a redistricting. We don't have
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: the votes. Well, I'm not one hundred percent believing that.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I want to be clear, I would invite I would
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: I shouldn't say I would invite.
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: I will I invite.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: Senator Bray to call in and explain the position. He
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: knows that I disagree, and we can have that discussion.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: In the eleven years I've been here, Senator Bray has
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: never once reached out. Neither is anybody I believe on
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: his staff. Uh, there certainly is no regular communications. So
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: I'm not anticipating, but I invite.
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: By the way, Senator Bosma.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: He used to reach out, and I and I and
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: I should give that man more credit for being somebody
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: who did reach out, and I should have embraced it
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: even further.
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: So that's on me.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Disagreement is secondary to the fact that there was outreach
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: to conversation, which does not happen amongst the vast majority
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: of this Republican party.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Criticizing the Republicans is well, pretty easy to do.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Attacking Republicans I don't think has any value. It is
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: the subject at hand. It isn't wanting them to fail.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I don't want the failure. I want a better state.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: I think we have a lot more to do, but
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: the redistricting issue, and the redistricting subject is one that
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I think is amiss. We should be proactive on this
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: this is a political process where yes, indeed, the people
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: could decide they don't like what you did and therefore
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: vote you out of office. But your job is not
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: only on the idea of what's best for Hoosiers. It
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: is on the idea of what is best overall. And
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: if you want to tell me that congressional lines are
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: drawn by fairness, I'm gonna laugh directly at your Republicans,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: no matter who you are.
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: No, it's not. It's not drawn on fairness. It drawn
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: on fairness.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: We'd have ten districts, not nine, and we would split
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: them in half, or at least it would be five
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: to four. But we don't do that. We're seven too.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: It's because none of it is based on fairness. It's
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: a mythology. It's a lie.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Now I don't actually have audio for you today.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I have the truth social post that comes from President Trump,
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: who wrote, and I quote, very disappointed in Indiana State
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: Senate Republicans, led by Rhino Senators Rod Bray and Greg
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Good for not wanting to redistrict their state, allowing the
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: United States Congress to gain to perhaps gain two more
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Republican seats. The Democrats have done redistricting for years, often illegally,
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: and all other appropriate Republican states have done it because
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: of these two politically correct type gentlemen.
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Quot quote and a few others.
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: They could be depriving Republicans of a majority in the House,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: a very big deal. California is trying to pick up
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: five seats and no one is complaining about that. It's
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: weak Republicans, he puts that in their quotes that cause
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: our country such problems. It's why we have crazy policies
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: and ideas that are so bad for America. Also, a
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: friend of mine, Governor Mike Brawn, perhaps is not working
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: the way he should to get the necessary votes. Considering
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that Mike wouldn't be governor without me, not even close.
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: Is disappointing. Any Republican that votes against this important redistricting
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: potentially having an impact on America itself, should be primaried.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Indiana's the state with strong, smart, and patriotic people.
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: They want to.
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: See our country win and to quote make America great
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: again unquote. Senator Bray Good and the others to be
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: released to the public later this afternoon should do their
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: job and do it now. If not, let's get them
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: out of office asap. No list has been released. This
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: was put out yesterday. You could argue that the election
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: here had nothing to do with President Trump. You could
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: also argue that Governor Mike Brawn absolutely wanted the endorsement
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: of Donald Trump. There's no question about this reality. But
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: President Trump's argument is there is a national story in
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: a national implication here. You could argue, well, he didn't
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: have to put you a redistrict in Texas. I argue California,
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: you didn't have to engage in retribution.
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: This was a Texas issue.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: If it had just been Texas and there was no retribution,
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: I don't think i'd be in this position. But there
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: is retribution, and I'm a grown up and we're playing
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: a much larger game, and Republicans don't seem interested in
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: recognizing this gets shameful stuff, and I'm sorry I have
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: to be the ones to sell them that you're not
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: standing on principle, you're not. You tell yourself you are,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: you say you are, you might actually believe it, but
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: that is not true. As a state legislature, you have
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: a responsibility on a larger scale. And if you don't
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: understand your responsibility to the country, what possibly do you
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: think the districting and the redistricting for the census is
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: what do you think is happening around you? What do
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: you think your job actually entails. People are like, oh
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: my gosh, Trump slams Braun. It's so brutal. Guys, Trump
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: slams everyone who cares. I got them going after Marjorie
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: Taylor Green. You want to care about that too, knock
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: yourself out. The conversation is should we redistrict? And what
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: is the argument in favor? I believe my arguments in
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: favor are accurate, and yes, Republicans do have a responsibility
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: to Hoosier's and a larger scale one, and that power
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: is okay and should be used, and not just on
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: this subject Republicans in the Senate and in the House.
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: But oh gosh, I got a list. Whenever you're ready
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: to start using it, we've got things to do.
