Why should you care that James Comey got indicted? Because the politics of revenge makes all of us less safe #KYSenate

I've been in this race for 10 days and so many Kentuckians have already reached out to show their support. You too can show your support by donating to this campaign before our end of month deadline. Chip in Today! secure.actblue.com/donate/jw_bs

The president’s former personal attorney, who has never prosecuted a single case, has indicted James Comey for disagreeing with him. This is Pyongyang on the Potomac and America deserves better. #KYSenate #FightLikeHell #USSenate

Want to know why so many Kentuckians can’t find work that actually pays the bills, or know someone hooked on painkillers? Because politicians in Washington are bought by a corrupt system that leaves them behind. It's time for a senator who actually gives a damn. #WillettYall

My #1 priority: Taking on a political system that’s been rigged for the wealthy and the powerful and screws over working people right here in Kentucky. #KYSenate #WillettYall #USSenate Thanks for the continued support. Every bit helps in the fight: secure.actblue.com/donate/jw_bs

Proud to build my campaign for U.S. Senate with the men and women who build Kentucky. Honored to have the endorsement of Iron Workers Local 70! #KYSenate #WilllettYall #USSenate

Hi, I’m Joel Willett 👋 I'm a former CIA officer. Tulsi Gabbard revoked my security clearance once I was mentioned as a potential candidate. The Trump machine wants to shut me up, but I won't. Here's what you can do to boost our momentum on launch day. ✔️FOLLOW ✔️DONATE (link in bio) ✔️PASS IT ON.

Donald Trump’s government is a tool for terrorizing working families and communities, and for enriching himself. If Republicans refuse to restore healthcare access for the millions who need it most, the choice is clear: Shut it down.

Wait, so me and Donald BOTH found out from Twitter that my security clearance was pulled?!

My story started in in Valley Station, KY. I was 17 when I enlisted, so my mom had to sign the forms. From the Army National Guard to the CIA, I've spent most of my life protecting the country I love, and I won't stop. #KYSenate #WilllettYall

Vladimir Putin sent armed guards in 2000 to shut down the puppet show Kukly for mocking him. Russia never got free media back. Donald Trump used his FCC to pressure ABC into suspending Jimmy Kimmel. If a president can silence comedians, our freedoms may never return.

We're getting headlines. Check out why at JoelforKentucky.com. #KYSenate #WilllettYall #FightLikeHell

Thank you! We made a huge splash yesterday and need to keep it going. Can you chip in to my campaign to make sure all Kentuckians hear from us about how we're going to flip this seat? #KYSenate #WilllettYall #FightLikeHell secure.actblue.com/donate/jw_bs

Today I spoke on Fox about Trump’s attack on free speech after he stripped my security clearance. I didn’t think those words would extend to late night comedy and Jimmy Kimmel - but here we are. If they can try to silence comedians and candidates, they can silence anyone.

Laura Loomer claimed credit when Tulsi Gabbard revoked my security clearance, unleashing her right-wing mob. Next came death threats. Today, I launched my campaign for U.S. Senate. She already called me a professional liar, a gaslighter, and a "traitor to his country," and the day isn't over yet.

At 17, I joined the army after receiving a great Kentucky education. I served in the CIA and assisted President Obama in the White House Situation Room. And ran businesses that employed hundreds of people. I lived the American dream, and I'm running for Senate so that you can live yours.

Tulsi Gabbard revoked my security clearance after learning I'm considering a Senate run. Laura Loomer and right-wing trolls unleashed a wave of attacks. Then came death threats. The Trump machine wants to shut me up. But I won't: I'm running to be Kentucky's next senator.

I’m the son of an Ironworker. A former member of LIUNA. Unions and their members built America, raised millions of out of poverty, created the middle-class, the 40 hour work week, ensured workers can be safe on the job, retire with dignity, and have a seat at the table.

Thanks, @usatoday.com for running my @courierjournal.bsky.social piece today. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Imagine seeing this and your response is “we better hurry up and redraw those maps”

Phone. Wallet. Keys. The universe has decided I’m allowed to have two of these at any given time.

This administration's cruelty is matched only by its incompetence. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...

Stripping security clearances from political opponents isn’t just petty– it’s dangerous. Last week, I talked to @julianbarnes.bsky.social at @nytimes.com about how this administration is purging experts and instead “flying blind.” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/u...

Ive been on BlueSky for less than a week and already this guy Jeff is bringing the deep cuts into my feed. “Who Does She Hope to Be?” is a banger and Sonny Sharrock is awesome - even if not Spinal Tap approved.

How did I end up on Tulsi Gabbard's list? I shared some thoughts here - www.courier-journal.com/story/opinio...

A grand jury might indict a ham sandwich, but they will not indict you for throwing one.

This is how you know someone turned 40.

I joined @alivitali.bsky.social this morning to talk about how weaponizing the federal gov against those who speak up is going to be dangerous, and likely already has been. Thanks @msnbc.com for having me.
