When kids are hungry, they can’t learn.

When teachers are buying snacks instead of supplies, classrooms suffer.

Cutting SNAP hurts Kentucky’s kids and their schools. We need to invest in families, not punish them. #KY06

SNAP cuts could have big impact in Kentucky, including in its schools
The passage of Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill" brings significant changes to SNAP at a time when food insecurity is already high in Kentucky.

📱☎️Call our senators NOW at 202-224-3121 and demand they reject this harmful & cruel bill!
When asked about his vote to cut Medicaid, Andy Barr said, "The winners are the people of Kentucky...."

93,000 children, including 32,000 children with disabilities, are at risk of losing their healthcare in the 6th congressional district alone.

WTF is wrong with Andy Barr?
How did your KY congressman vote on Trump-backed bill cutting Medicaid spending?
One Eastern Kentucky detractor called Rep. Hal Rogers’ yes vote “almost an act of treason to the vulnerable people in our area.”

He followed the money. @davidcorn.bsky.social tries to get answers on a payment to Kash Patel that no one wants to discuss. 🤔
To find out more about the curious case of FBI chief Kash Patel receiving $25,000 from a Ukrainian-Russian-American filmmaker who was part of a Putin-financed propaganda operation, I knocked on the door of a house in Beverly Hills.

Here's what happened.

My op-ed in today's Herald-Leader: Today in DC, we're seeing the political equivalent of a bloodletting. In less than 100 days, the Trump Administration has undermined a strong and growing economy and turned the American dream into a nightmare for many.

Incompetence in Washington puts every American at risk, no matter how you voted. No one should be happy that the DOGE team - the same folks who randomly published classified U.S. security information online today - wants access to your bank account & Social Security numbers.

So proud of our Democratic members of Congress, right now! They’re being blocked from the Dept. of Education—and they’re not having it.

Seeing Auntie Maxine ready to fight for our kids warms my soul. She hasn’t changed. Waters isn’t my congresswoman, but we love her in this house!
