Thank YOU, @realBrandonGill, for saying the quiet parts… Especially now, as our own @kystatepolice and the entire Commonwealth continues to mourn the loss of one of OUR own following what began as a “routine” traffic stop. 💔
One side of the aisle wants to defund your local police station. Republicans back the blue and believe in law and order. Kentucky- vote for @AlvaradoForKY!

YES! Great job @AlvaradoForKY! 👏🏻👏🏻
Replying to @AlvaradoForKY
@AlvaradoForKY brought real experience and practical solutions to the #KY6Debate tonight—and it showed. As a physician and former state senator, he spoke from the front lines on healthcare costs, family budgets, and the everyday pressures facing Central Kentucky. While his opponent offered more Washington-style talking points, Alvarado focused on what actually moves the needle for Kentuckians. Get out and vote Ralph Alvarado!

Amazing… 🇺🇸
President Trump just made a packed stadium filled with 100,000 college football fans roar with an epic flyover in Air Force One. When he walked into the stadium, the crowd went insane. We will never see another President in my lifetime with this kind of cultural power. This is exactly the energy we need to get Republicans out to vote in the midterms.

It’s that time of year… 🏈
Boys Of Fall would not have been the same without my good friend @SeanPayton. This is Sean giving a pregame speech in Naperville, Illinois where he played High School football. This speech wasn’t scripted. He spoke from heart. Sean is a great football coach but he is a great communicator and motivator. This speech still gives me chills. Sean I am forever grateful. It’s football season everyone. KC

I can’t speak for you, but anxiously waiting for @JamesComer to officially announce and wondering is @JShellKY still the pumpkin whisper? If YOU know, YOU know! ❤️‼️🇺🇸

Mike Clines stood up for Kentucky student-athletes when it mattered. In 2020, he supported allowing high-school sports to proceed and spoke about the importance of athletics to students’ mental and social health. That’s the record, Team Clines all the way! 💪🏼‼️🇺🇸
Huge turnout for Mike Clines reelection event in Campbell County. Enjoyed sharing the stage with Leader Rudy and seeing so many great state legislators ready for a partner in Frankfort!

Let’s go @tichenor4ky! 🇺🇸
It was an honor to have @RepJamesComer & @maxwellwise along with several of my colleagues join me for my reelection campaign fundraiser. It has been a true honor to serve and I look forward to serving in the KY Senate for 4 more yrs! Tichenorforkentucky.com

It just gets crazier by the day with him… 😂
Good news, Kentucky - our property tax rate has dropped for the sixth straight year. This will help our families save and builds on the steps we're taking to help everyone with the rising prices our nation faces.

Lexington’s Fourth of July Parade and 250 years later, George Washington is still leading the way! 🇺🇸 Proud to support @AlvaradoForKY—a conservative leader who will always put Kentucky families first. God bless Kentucky & the USA ❤️🤍💙 #LexingtonKY #4thofJuly #AmericaFirst

“Excessive wasteful spending” in public schools appears to be a pandemic… 👀

Imagine when @FCPSKY was known for being an excellent district & had their fiscal affairs in order… 🤔 Now it seems personal blogging and public image management is more important than academic performance, transparency, & financial stability. 3-2 is the new 6-7, look it up!
An underappreciated aspect of the FCPS situation is that the superintendent has been blogging through it. Also underappreciated: FCPS is still an excellent district if we're judging by student outcomes.

Congrats Harlan! 👏🏻👏🏻
Harlan officially signed with the University of Pikeville to play baseball. Thx to all of his coaches, teammates, teachers, and especially UPike ⚾️ for believing in him and allowing him to continue his baseball and academic career at Pikeville.

Let’s go!
We’re getting the band back together…

This take feels a bit ironic coming from someone who opposed kids playing sports in 2020. Funny how perspectives change—some of us still remember…
Any coach worth their salt will tell you: there's always more work to do. I'm running for Governor to make every tomorrow better than today — because every Kentuckian, regardless of zip code, deserves a fair shot. Watch our video 👇
