I had a great time at the Campbell County Young Dems bowling night. Lots of laughs and even better conversations. These are the folks who show up, roll up their sleeves, and believe in building a Kentucky that works for everyone. I’m proud to stand with this next generation of leaders.

This shouldn't be a partisan issue. Powerful people, on an international scale, who have allegedly committed heinous crimes, are being protected by Pam Bondi and the D.O.J.
Since when are we a nation that protects pedophiles? The victims of Jeffrey Epstein and his network deserve justice.

The SAVE Act isn’t about election integrity. It’s about making it harder for eligible Americans to vote. Citizenship is already required. This bill would force people to jump through unnecessary hoops and could block millions from the ballot box. That’s not democracy.

Trump made a racist post about the Obamas and it tells you everything you need to know.
This isn’t leadership. It’s insecurity, cruelty, and the same tired playbook of division he’s used for years. America deserves better than someone who tears people down instead of lifting this country up.

The racist post from our president is embarrassing and offensive. It's also a distraction from the Epstein files, his failure to make life more affordable for Americans and his failures to fix a healthcare system that is terrible for so many. Don't we deserve better than this?
