In this 611th episode of 'The Political Spotlight,' Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey covers a major story from Henry County, Indiana, and then, moving northward, he reports on a major announcement made earlier in the day in his home city of Muncie, Indiana. First up, Bilbrey tackles the Henry County Government's insurance problem! To be clear, the problem is current Sheriff John M. Sproles and the culture he has created among his employees. We then move on to the City of Muncie and the weekly Board of Works meeting, where Mayor Dan Ridenour announced that BOW member Linda Gregory would be stepping away from "public service" after 12 years as a Muncie City Councilor and six years on the Board of Works! The Mayor did not reveal who her replacement would be, but Bilbrey found out it was none other than local attorney Allen Wiseley, a young lapdog Republican, who, like Democrat Gregory and the other two BOW members, will be nothing more than a rubber stamp for Mayor Ridenour. #ThePoliticalSpotlight

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey reviews the agenda and action items for the upcoming March 2, 2026, Muncie City Council meeting. Although it appears to be a light meeting, with only two new ordinances and two resolutions, it could, once again, be an interesting meeting because of the continued stalemate between the public and Council President Jeff Green over the so-called "Council Rules," as well as an interesting Ordinance and Resolution Time will tell! Then, as he winds down the last show of the week, Bilbrey explains the contest viewers will have a chance to participate in next week. If you're interested, watch until the end! #ThePoliticalSpotlight

Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey has a lot going on and a lot to discuss with the audience. It's that time of year again! From the City of Muncie and an ordinance that should have passed twice already but didn't, so it has been refiled, to a LOT of filings for political office in this 2026 election season, to a former City Councilor's OP-ED about the current insanity among the Muncie City Councilors... and, of course, there is always nonsense going on in Madison and Henry Counties. There just isn't enough Bilbrey or the team to go around, and there is NEVER enough time in the day! That said, it is time for some of the very best political commentary on the face of the planet, so let's get to it! #ThePoliticalSpotlight
