Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey shares his thoughts on the special meeting of the Delaware County Commissioners held earlier today — Thursday, May 7, 2026. The meeting was intended to address claims that needed to be paid after Commissioner Stephen Brand raised concerns and refused to sign off on them during the commissioners’ regular meeting on Monday, May 4, 2026. But after watching today’s brief meeting, Bilbrey has even more concerns than he did on Monday. There are still plenty of questions and very few answers. It feels like the public servants are speaking without actually saying anything. This is a serious issue that should concern every taxpayer in Delaware County. Now is the time to get to the bottom of what’s really happening and work toward correcting the situation. Then Bilbrey turns his attention to the chaos surrounding Primary Election Day in Knightstown, Indiana, on Tuesday, May 5, 2026. Bilbrey shares what he knows about the voter situation in Knightstown. He then outlines what he believes may happen next and attempts to clear up the misinformation surrounding the situation in Knightstown, Henry County, Indiana. This is an episode you do not want to miss. ========================= VIDEO version of Ep 659: https://youtube.com/live/FGnWUqVrUfI ============================ 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 @ 9 p.m. ET) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Audio Podcast: https://ThePoliticalSpotlight.fireside.fm & All Other Podcast Hosting Sites ============================ 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.

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey welcomes longtime friend (and politico) Rachel Clark and her daughter, Ryan Reese (an up-and-coming politico), to the show—LIVE from Mud Creek Studio—to discuss the upcoming 2026 Primary Election (Tuesday, May 5, 2026, 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.). The trio will share their thoughts on the past four-plus months of campaigning, including the ups and downs, the good, the bad, and the completely ignorant! They'll share their wishes for who they want to see win various positions across several counties and at the state and national levels. Then they'll offer their predictions for who they believe will win in the various races. This midterm election will come and go like many others, without much fanfare nationally. However, locally (in several counties) and at the state level here in Indiana, this primary election is one of the most important elections voters and non-voters alike have faced!

During the final weeks of the 2026 primary election, Henry County Sheriff John M. Sproles has made multiple (QUESTIONABLE) statements about the ongoing "insurance issues" that Henry County, Indiana, has been dealing with. In the real world, it's common knowledge that the "insurance issues" the county has been struggling with stem from various actions and/or inactions, resulting in numerous tort claims and lawsuits filed against Sheriff John M. Sproles, his fellow Deputies, the Sheriff's Department as an agency, and the County government as a whole. This has led to several serious consequences for Henry County's taxpayers. Sheriff John M. Sproles, while campaigning, has been downplaying these issues and has made several statements that have raised concerns for the team here at 'The Political Spotlight.' As a result, record requests were issued to the Henry County Auditor's office, and many emails and documents have been collected. With all of that compiled, Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey and Producer Kate will walk the audience through THE REALITY of the situation in Henry County, Indiana. Tune in to this 654th episode of 'The Political Spotlight' to learn about the "Insurance Discrepancies: Sheriff Sproles' Opinion vs Reality!" ========================= VIDEO version of Ep 654: https://youtube.com/live/z3-5mTorVcs ============================ 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 @ 9 p.m. ET) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ThePoliticalSpotlight Audio Podcast: https://ThePoliticalSpotlight.fireside.fm & All Other Podcast Hosting Sites ============================ 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.
