    BHOL: Rob Kendall / Data Centers; Redistricting; Changing Indiana's path

    Episode 419 of Boss Hog of Liberty is out! Jeremiah Morrell, Bones Harcourt, and Betsy Mills are your hosts. Zach Burcham is working as your producer. Great friend of the show Rob Kendall is back with us. Now the host of Kendall & Casey on WIBC in Indianapolis joins us. Henry County Commissioners are about to consider approval of a data center at the Knightstown interchange. Will this be the major project that Henry County says “Yes” to? We recap the crazy two years that Rob Kendall has had, getting Micah Beckwith elected Lieutenant Governor of Indiana, being very involved with the changes to the property tax system in the state, and the fallout when they passed a bill that nobody was happy with. We give him all the credit or the blame for where we are today.  Now there is a redistricting fight and Governor Braun and Beckwith are feuding with the State Senate, including Jean Leising, who represented Henry County for a decade, and still has Rushville. Betsy Mills says she is going to get Congressman Shreve booked on the program. We are getting ready for Thanksgiving. We review traditions, and is it possible to do a “Christmas with the Kranks” and skip a holiday like Thanksgiving? Perhaps Easter, but not this holiday. Finally, we fear our Colts might be in trouble. Our program is community supported on Patreon.

    BHOL 418: Data Center News; Redistricting Battle at the Statehouse

    Episode 418 of Boss Hog of Liberty is out! Jeremiah Morrell and Bones Harcourt are your hosts. Zach Burcham is working as your producer. Brian Nichols is our featured guest. The Government has reopened and Thomas Massie just got the Epstein Files release turned into law. Will he turn this momentum into a career on the national stage? The Trump Administration has been trying to redistrict congressional seats across the country. This week they lost a court case in Texas and potentially they are going to lose 5 seats in their quest to keep the House of Representatives. This has put even more pressure on the push for Indiana to take up mid cycle redistricting. Governor Braun has called a special session, but the Senate is refusing to take the issue up. President Trump has started singling out members who are not on “his side” and some of them have been victims of harassment and “Swatting”. The Indiana State Police are now investigating. Locally, the Henry County Planning commission has approved the Knightstown Data Center and the City of New Castle has passed an RV parking ordinance that might be more aggressive than intended.
