it s a depiction of a canary in the bird cage. didn t have a government to protect him. this symbolizes to me the role of government and positive impact on people s lives. some of these senators hugo black, collective bargains, medicare and social security and all that a number of these eight senators did for our country with these kinds of progressive victories. that was what was so cool about it. i learned things about glen taylor, i knew nothing about. nobody s heard of glen taylor. it was cool. senator sherrod brown, thank you for being on this morning. good interview. thanks. really interesting, john. thanks for that. two former twitter employees are accused of spying for saudi arabia. details on what they were allegedly doing next. you wouldn t do only half of your daily routine so why treat your mouth any differently? listerine® completes the job by preventing plaque, early gum disease, and killing up to 99.9% of germs. try listerine®. need stocking stuffers? try l
tying himself to donald trump. president trump is taking america to new heights. but it hasn t been easy. people are afraid of change. but i m not. neither is the president. now ugly outside ads are a feature of u.s. politics, too. and this one may be a sign of coming attractions. it falsely claimed bevin s opponent wanted transgender girls to compete against girls in schools. a blatant scare tactic. but expect more of it. democrat beshear didn t shy away from trump either. he ran this ad featuring a couple of trump guys from kentucky who are going to vote democrat this time around. for his part, donald trump has been dominating the political ad space with big dollar buys like this tv pitch during game seven of the world series aimed at swing voters. but at least one claim didn t even make it across the plate. cutting illegal immigration in half. not even close. as our daniel dale pointed out, this is misleading math at best. trump can t say he cut illegal
trying to undo the election. now, the facts of the impeachment are what they are. it seems poised each day the democrats seem closer and closer to moving ahead with impeachment but, chris, i haven t seen anything yet. maybe tonight s kentucky results will be a data point that the senate republican conference all of a sudden weighs in a different way here. to this dant i haven t seen anything that shows me 20 republican senators are about to bail on the president and join democrats in trying to remove the president. and beshear didn t even talk about it. democrats won in 2018 by raising health care and the attempt by the president to gut the affordable care act, take protections away from people with pree preexisting conditions that was the basis on which they did very well. it wasn t on the basis of universal coverage, medicare for
there s family history. beshear was a popular governor, 2007-200015. he expanded medicaid a lot. a lot of governors did not. those who did, some succeeded, some didn t. he succeeded with that. how did it change? it s a very complicated state, and you know this. you ve been around politics all your life. so we can t just say it s the trump factor. but without a doubt, number one, the president, he may have made this closer. he may have helped matt bevin and come up short for that. but the president went in last night thinking he could pull it across the finish line, and that did not happen. number two, you look at the cincinnati suburbs this part of the state, the suburbs around lexington, around louisville, even down in bowling green, the democrats are gaining. that is happening during the truffle presidency. it happened all throughout 2018. it s a warning sign. does it change kentucky politics a lot? no. donald trump will most likely win kentucky quite easily next year. however, if
is this a i mean, so beshear didn t have any coat tails. what are we to read into that? well, i think you have to realize that here in kentucky, governor bevin was immensely unpopular for years, for decades really, chuck. kentucky democrats thought they had been inoculated from the more progressive unpopular national party by having these off-year elections. but what we ve seen is that kentuckians more and more are pretty much republicans not just at the federal level but at the state level. and bevin was just someone out of touch with kentucky more than he was policy wise or politically. he just rubbed a whole lot of people the wrong way. and there s really not a whole lot for democrats to be happy about. this might be the one race, chuck, where both democrats and republicans seem to be both happy with the result. senator mcconnell s people are very happy. their protége. daniel cameron. right. and they had no love lost with governor bevin himself. so i think this will be more of
