"We have suffered a little bit in loss of opportunity. The new rules of the settlement with the roster limitations, we had 675 student-athletes in our program. We were reduced to 530,” UK Athletics Director Mitch Barnhart says.

“On the precipice of retirement, Mitch #McConnell has become a pariah among the Republicans trying to succeed him.”

Paul said he doesn't think it's right for Republicans or Democrats to engage in government-directed censorship, but he stopped short of directly condemning Trump by name in the interview. #FCC #Kimmel

The Democratic House members say the Monday night meeting of the Fayette school board made it "clear the community no longer trusts the current administration." Awaiting comment from #FCPS.

Despite change at the top, protesters still seek answers in Doug #Harless case.

The point at which reporters defending the #FirstAmendment — the language that gives our profession any meaning whatsoever — are slapped with the accusation of “bias” is the point when the system collapses into self-contradiction. Values aren’t part of the job. They are the job.

If someone doesn't value evidence, what evidence are you going to provide to prove that they should value it? —Sam Harris

Happy #caturday to those who celebrate. Was shooting for a yinyang thing with Rufus, but it’s giving more Olan Mills.

At a recent stop in Lexington, Paul had sounded reassured that the administration might be backing off. But a second strike this week called that into question.

Swinging benches, a dog park, a stage, three-story climbing playground, sensory play area, and... (drum roll)... "self-cleaning" bathrooms. #PhoenixPark

Lexington's ban on no-knock warrants was struck down Thursday by the state's highest court, which said it conflicted with a state law that limits but doesn't prohibit such warrants during police raids.

Day one of WUKY’s Fall Fund Drive. With the loss of federal funding (200k/yr), your gift is MONUMENTALLY important. Lock in the coverage you count on. (859) 257-9859. WUKY.org.

Muhammad Ali's refusal to sign his Vietnam-era military draft card upended the boxing champ's life and added a powerful voice to the anti-war movement. Now that piece of history is coming up for sale.

Kentucky nonprofits aren't just losing funds. Some are afraid to talk about it publicly.

Is it finally happening?!

Joel #Willett, a military veteran and former CIA officer, launched his Democratic campaign for the U.S. Senate from Kentucky today.

Bienvenidos!

Remember the rural hospital stabilization fund in the #OBBB? It comes with strings.

With a 5-0 vote during a special-called session on Tuesday, #FCPS board members agreed to bring in an outside company to review the district's budget process.

Not sure exactly what kind of "crackdown" Paul is envisioning here, but at the very least it's a shift in posture from his typical warnings against govt-endorsed content moderation. #CharlieKirk

Liggins struck a contrite tone in his prepared remarks, saying much of the criticism of the district has been, in his words, warranted.

NOW: #Fayette Supt. #Liggins expresses regret over not probing deep enough into budget shortfalls, says the “buck stops with” him. He says his goal is to restore lost trust, notes he doesn’t feel media coverage has captured the full story. #FCPS

Expect plenty of coverage of Fayette Superintendent Demetrus #Liggins in the Education Committee today. The whole gang is here. Liggins is set to testify on the district’s budget turmoil.

The fallout from the killing of conservative activist #CharlieKirk continues to reverberate across the country. UK saw both a candlelight vigil and the launch of an investigation of a university employee over a controversial social media comment.

"If you look at some of the commenters, somehow I'm undeserving. It's this sort of purity thing. These aren't, I think, people on the left. I'm not sure who they are," Paul observed. #CharlieKirk

When it comes to Trump's ties to #Epstein, #Massie has been less forceful — suggesting there may be files that are embarrassing to people in the president's orbit, but nothing directly implicating the president in crimes.

The comments struck a different tone from a video message released by President Donald Trump, who pointed to the effects of demonizing people with whom one disagrees but singled out rhetoric on the "radical left" for the act and did not include Democratic politicians who have been targeted.

Contracts to build the shelter housing up to 214 people did get their initial vote of approval at city council Tuesday. But not before several concerned citizens, including two former council members, voiced worries about the choice of location.

The responses came before confirmation that #Kirk had died as a result of the attack.

"The next natural step is to kind of take a look back and say ok, what can we do to improve moving forward?" #FCPS School Board Chair Tyler Murphy tells WUKY as independent audit push gains steam.
