With the 2026 midterm general election just over a week away, Bilbrey has MAJOR concerns about Hoosiers who have requested mail-in ballots. If you have requested an absentee ballot by mail in Indiana, you will want to hear this discussion. This is an IMPORTANT topic you will not want to miss! Lastly, Bilbrey has an update on his request for records related to the Muncie Police body camera footage of the officer who shot a dog that was acting aggressively. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ VIDEO version of Ep 757: https://youtube.com/live/jN_0LDuf5R0 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/subTPS Become a Member: https://bit.ly/MembershipTPS Merch: https://bit.ly/Spotlight_Merch ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Political Spotlight Airs LIVE (Sunday — Thursday at 9 p.m. ET) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Audio Podcast: https://ThePoliticalSpotlight.fireside.fm & All Other Podcast Hosting Sites ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Connect with The Political Spotlight team on social media: Facebook 1: https://www.facebook.com/Bilbrey318 Facebook 2: https://www.facebook.com/PoliticalSpotlight318 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Twitter: https://x.com/BilbreyLIVE Email: [email protected] ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚨🚨🚨 'The Political Spotlight' LIVE Sunday - Thursday @ 9 p.m. (ET) Hosted by: Kristopher H.

In this 756th episode of The Political Spotlight, Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey welcomes John Bartlett to the program. Bartlett is the Democratic challenger to incumbent State Representative J.D. Prescott in Indiana House District 33, which includes Blackford and Randolph Counties and portions of Delaware, Henry, and Jay Counties. Bartlett makes his case to District 33 voters, explaining why he believes they should support him during early voting or on Election Day, Tuesday, November 3, 2026. Bartlett's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/BartlettForIN From there, Bilbrey shifts gears and begrudgingly turns to the past couple of days' nonsense—once again arguing that the public seems eager to get involved, though not always in what matters most. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ VIDEO version of Ep 756: https://youtube.com/live/dnEuDa8Kau0 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/subTPS Become a Member: https://bit.ly/MembershipTPS Merch: https://bit.ly/Spotlight_Merch ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Political Spotlight Airs LIVE (Sunday — Thursday at 9 p.m. ET) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Audio Podcast: https://ThePoliticalSpotlight.fireside.fm & All Other Podcast Hosting Sites ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Connect with The Political Spotlight team on social media: Facebook 1: https://www.facebook.com/Bilbrey318 Facebook 2: https://www.facebook.com/PoliticalSpotlight318 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Twitter: https://x.com/BilbreyLIVE Email: [email protected] ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚨🚨🚨 'The Political Spotlight' LIVE Sunday - Thursday @ 9 p.m. (ET) Hosted by: Kristopher H.

In this 755th episode of The Political Spotlight, Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers a bizarre assortment of political and governmental oddities from across Indiana. Frankly, it's almost too weird—and too pathetic—to mention, yet here we are! From allegations that one Muncie Police officer ran a person over while another shot a dog for no reason, to the half-assed attempt at the Indiana Secretary of State's Candidates Debate, to a legal showdown between a small school corporation and the big, bad boogey bill known as Senate Enrolled Act 1 (formerly SB1), to breaking news out of Indianapolis that several attorneys have left the Indiana ACLU, and you'll never believe why. There is no shortage of BS! Bilbrey also offers a word of caution about the "Hoosier Enquirer" and its owner and head AI copy-and-paste'er, Gabe Whitley. This is cropping up because several people locally seem to be using his "AI slop machine" to gather information. Bilbrey just wants everyone to be forewarned! Nothing is off the table in this episode. There is a lot to cover... so let's get to it, then! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ VIDEO version of Ep 755: https://youtube.com/live/3E_f8aka-IY ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/subTPS Become a Member: https://bit.ly/MembershipTPS Merch: https://bit.ly/Spotlight_Merch ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Political Spotlight Airs LIVE (Sunday — Thursday at 9 p.m. ET) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Audio Podcast: https://ThePoliticalSpotlight.fireside.fm & All Other Podcast Hosting Sites ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Connect with The Political Spotlight team on social media: Facebook 1: https://www.facebook.com/Bilbrey318 Facebook 2: https://www.facebook.com/PoliticalSpotlight318 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Twitter: https://x.com/BilbreyLIVE Email: [email protected] ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚨🚨🚨 'The Political Spotlight' LIVE Sunday - Thursday @ 9 p.m. (ET) Hosted by: Kristopher H.

In this 753rd episode of The Political Spotlight, Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey takes a closer look at the growing data center dispute in Muncie and Delaware County. As the debate heats up, citizens are being bombarded with facts, rumors, misconceptions, outright misinformation, and, in Bilbrey's view, obfuscation from those in power. The time to get involved is now! But getting involved starts with getting educated! Bilbrey argues that this fight must be grounded in facts—what is known, what is not known, and what still needs to be answered. Once emotion takes over and facts are lost, these debates can quickly derail. Bilbrey reviews the current state of affairs, including remarks by Delaware County Commissioner Stephen Brand at the end of the Commissioners' meeting on Monday, October 19, 2026. Bilbrey reminds the audience that many unknowns remain! So Bilbrey tries to cut through the noise, separate fact from rumor, and get down to brass tacks: what is actually happening, what citizens should watch for, and what comes next. Data centers. Local government. Private property. Citizen involvement. Facts. Rumors. Transparency. Accountability. All that and more in this 753rd episode of The Political Spotlight. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ VIDEO version of Ep 753: https://youtube.com/live/xo1mHQ-onJE ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Subscribe: https://bit.ly/subTPS Become a Member: https://bit.ly/MembershipTPS Merch: https://bit.ly/Spotlight_Merch ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ The Political Spotlight Airs LIVE (Sunday — Thursday at 9 p.m. ET) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Audio Podcast: https://ThePoliticalSpotlight.fireside.fm & All Other Podcast Hosting Sites ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Connect with The Political Spotlight team on social media: Facebook 1: https://www.facebook.com/Bilbrey318 Facebook 2: https://www.facebook.com/PoliticalSpotlight318 TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Twitter: https://x.com/BilbreyLIVE Email: [email protected] ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚨🚨🚨 'The Political Spotlight' LIVE Sunday - Thursday @ 9 p.m. (ET) Hosted by: Kristopher H.
