Caleb Ragland, a Kentucky farmer and president of the American Soybean Association, warns of farm crisis as China has placed zero soybean orders for the upcoming harvest. It’s a departure from typical patterns, where 25% of the U.S. crop goes to China. ca.finance.yahoo.com/news/farmer-...

In Kentucky, women and families already face challenges when it comes to maternal care. President Trump's cuts to Medicaid – which covers nearly half of all births in our state – will make these services even harder to access. 1/2 www.yahoo.com/news/article...

UPDATED Shelby County prosecutor says KY law treats failure to return library books as a civil offense, making the borrower liable for double the cost. " ... given the number and value of the books ... it is no small amount, especially for a small town library." kentuckylantern.com/2025/08/22/l...

Donors give nearly $1,000 to replace 16 LGBTQ+ books a church had recommended to check out and never return. “We will use the donated money to replace the books and buy more like them," says Shelby County Public Library director. By Jack Brammer kentuckylantern.com/2025/08/22/l...

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

The 47-year-old term-limited governor didn't outright say whether he'll run for president in 2028. But he has not ruled out the idea. Beshear said he plans to hit the road to help elect Democrats in the midterms. www.southcarolinapublicradio.org/sc-news/2025...

G guarding O our P pedophile

Trump Tax Tariffs will cost the average Kentucky family $2,400 just THIS YEAR. .That extra cost could be the difference between paying tuition and dropping out of school, having food and going hungry or paying rent and getting evicted.

Could you survive if someone took 93% of your income? That's how much Trump is gutting from addiction recovery, workforce development and manufacturing led by the Appalachian Regional Commission. Trump is killing hope in Eastern Kentucky.

With steps like this, families will have more money to buy groceries, fill up the gas tank, make doctor appointments and more. Americans need help with rising costs, and we're doing what we can to help here in Kentucky.

While Republicans steal food from hundreds of thousands of Kentuckians, Lt. Gov. Jacqueline Coleman is helping open new food banks in rural Kentucky. She understands that helping people get back on their feet requires meeting them where they are, not abandoning them.

Trump plan to slash Appalachian economic development agency’s funding raises concerns across states. Trump budget would cut Appalachian Regional Commission funding by 93% — from $200 million to $14 million. @mckennahorsley.bsky.social kentuckylantern.com/briefs/trump...

It’s weird living in a country where half the people believe in magical weather control machines but not climate change...

Are those proud boys?

The "big, ugly bill" will add trillions of dollars to our national debt, fire health-care workers, throw people off their health insurance, close rural hospitals and cause more people to go hungry. There's nothing beautiful about a bill that will cost Americans their jobs, savings and health.

Commentary by Jason Bailey @kypolicy.bsky.social Will the coalfields ‘get over’ losing hospitals miners fought to create? Which side will Congress be on? kentuckylantern.com/2025/06/27/w...

No, Senator. Kentuckians will not “get over it.”

🤷🏼‍♂️

‘They’ll get over it,’ McConnell reportedly assures GOP colleagues about Medicaid cuts kentuckylantern.com/2025/06/24/t...

I know things seem scary right now, but it's important to take care of yourself. Hug your kids, focus on the things you are grateful for, and take a break from the news when you need it. Keep the faith and remember, we'll get through this together.

Seems like an important point

While leaders in D.C. are cutting Medicaid from 16 million Americans and causing folks to lose local access to health care, we're working on ways to bring care right to Kentuckians' doors. We're helping people lead better lives – something every level of government should be focused on.

There is a known liar in our White House who has no concept of reality. He is a felon. He is a rapist. He has reversed our solid economy in less than 100 days and put American businesses and families at financial and medical risk. This is not acceptable. This is not inevitable. Rise up. Resist.
