Bourbon maker Jim Beam is halting production at one of its distilleries in Kentucky for at least a year as the whiskey industry navigates tariffs from the Trump administration and slumping demand for a product that needs years of aging before it is ready.

I stand with former public servants unlawfully fired for doing their jobs. What is happening to USAID staff is illegal and dangerous. This is about workers’ rights, the rule of law, and accountability. Defending them defends democracy itself.

Another mass shooting in Mississippi. Of the 41 states where mass shootings have occurred since January 2025, 21 of those states have Republican governors. Why hasn’t the president proposed sending in the national guard to any of those states?

All three Kentucky offices - Jackson, Paducah and Louisville - are short-staffed.

There is no meteorologist in charge at any of the three offices..."

Did staffing cuts at weather service affect Kentucky’s tornado response?
Due to staffing shortages, the National Weather Service in Jackson no longer has overnight staff. But NWS and Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear say the office was staffed Friday night and early Saturday.

If you are a shareholder of a company impacted by tariffs (i.e., Amazon) - write to investor relations & demand the company show tariff-related costs in the shopping cart so customers can make an informed decision. Tell us what we are paying - let us decide whether we want to make a purchase.

Pete Hegseth is clearly ill-equipped to handle the role of Secretary of Defense. His repeated failure to follow basic operational security procedures jeopardizes the safety and security of our armed forces. He should resign.
