GOAT TIME with Zach & Zahn! 🐐🎙️ This do-nothing Congress has let the national debt climb by an insane amount. In Washington, I’d work with members of both parties to reassess our fiscal priorities, lower the debt, and actually rein in spending. #zachdembo #stevezahn #kentucky #ky06

It was a great time at the Millstone Festival in Richmond this past weekend! Chatting with folks all across the district about how they're dealing with rising costs is what this campaign is all about.

This is Bernie Moreno, whose daughter is the ex-wife and alleged assault victim of Congressman Max Miller, whom Moreno has said, quite literally, nothing publicly about. Would be wonderful if any reporter would care to ask why he has more vitriol here than for the man who beats his own daughter.

Platner should have never been on Bernie's radar. Dems need to address how to stop Bernie (not a Dem) from forcing bad tactical and candidate decisions. It's been over 10 years now of his arrogance and miscalculation, and the nation has suffered for it. Enough.
