Many people have been discussing the incident that occurred on Saturday, January 10, 2026, involving an off-duty Henry County Sheriff's Deputy and two Henry County citizens (Amy & Brian Bell). Some have been saying they "WANT TO SEE THE WHOLE VIDEO," while others have been complaining that she "EDITED HER VIDEO." Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey has a message for ALL of those people! Bilbrey will then show a video that has NOT BEEN SEEN BEFORE. What it shows should make people question even more, "what went on during the traffic stop." This is just PART 1... there will be a follow-up PART 2 to this episode! But this episode should set the stage for many questions. And you can take it to the bank that Bilbrey will be searching for the answers! He will share them with everyone when he gets them. #ThePoliticalSpotlight

It can seem hopeless at times, but that is why Bilbrey does what he does: to help people understand that we can make a difference and overcome this nonsense... if we educate ourselves, get active, and work together. We can defeat corruption and make this world a better place. #ThePoliticalSpotlight

The 2026 midterm election cycle starts in less than 60 days (as of the initial broadcast of this episode: Sunday, November 9, 2025). However, that doesn't mean the campaigning hasn't already begun! The question then becomes: Is everything being done correctly? And what's all the fuss about Madison County Council's "newbie" Councilor Jonathan Culp? Has he really been using his county position to campaign for a higher seat, just 11 months into his first term as Councilor? What committee is he using to campaign? What will his campaign finance reports show? And has he really been buying votes? Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey welcomes contributing correspondent Dr. Katherin Callahan to the show to help break everything down! This will be an episode you won't want to miss! #ThePoliticalSpotlight

Muncie is still Muncie... Host Kristopher H. Bilbrey is on a mission to find the local newspaper—more on that soon! But for this 540th episode, Bilbrey invites Dr. Katherine Callahan back to the program to discuss the current situation in Madison County government. The Council continues to double down on its outdated, backwards thinking, and members of the Madison County Sheriff's Department have had enough! The president of the FOP, a deputy who has served for several years, resigned his position while speaking to the Council on Thursday evening, October 9, 2025. He is the first of many, Bilbrey is afraid. Things could get really, really bad before they ever get better—if they ever get better! #ThePoliticalSpotlight
