Just got a chance to sit down and look at the state House and Senate results in Kentucky and it looks like Dems are about to flip about eight seats 👀 V bad night to be a suburban Republican in Kentucky.

Thanks for the recognition! It was a hard fought battle...
Patients deserve timely access to the care they need. Representative Kimberly Poore Moser has helped turn that priority into action. KHA honored Rep. Moser with its Legislative Hero Award at @UK_HealthCare for her persistence in advancing prior authorization reform through House Bill 176 and her patient-focused leadership as chair of the House Health Services Committee. Her experience as a nurse brings a valuable perspective to health care policy. Thank you, @5boymom for your dedication to Kentucky’s patients, hospitals, and communities! #KentuckyHospitals #HealthCare #PriorAuthorization

"There's nothing wrong with pitch counts. But not when it's spit out by a computer, and the computer does not look at an individual's mechanics. And you can't look at his genes. It should come from the individual and the pitching coach and the manager. Take a look at all of them: Marichal, Jenkins, Spahn, what do you think made them successful? They conditioned their arms by pitching more, not less, starting from when they signed their first contract." Tom Seaver. "Some pitchers are pit bulls for a batter, an inning, stretch of innings, a game, even a season. Tom Seaver was a pit bull on every pitch, every batter, every out, every inning, every game, every season for twenty years until he retired at forty-two." "Tom Seaver & Me" Pat Jordan. Art by John Hanley.

It’s disgusting that we’ve reached this point in our politics, and JD Vance should be ashamed of himself. Vivek Ramaswamy and JD Vance have reached a low I did not think was possible by attacking a survivor of childhood sexual assault. @amyactonoh escaped poverty and neglect and became a doctor and extraordinary public servant. She is going to be an outstanding governor.
JD Vance defends Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad featuring Amy Acton’s abusive mother, who stayed with her husband who was indicted for raping Acton starting at 9 years old: "Vivek Ramaswamy had the audacity to run a TV commercial which calls it out like it is and calls Amy Acton a liar"

George Bird Grinnell, “the father of American Conservation,” was born on this day in 1849. A naturalist, hunter, anthropologist, historian, writer, paleontologist, author, and conservationist, he founded the Audubon Society in 1886 and a year later was among those who founded the Boone and Crockett Club with Theodore Roosevelt. He was the editor of Forest and Stream magazine, was instrumental in designating Glacier as a National Park, helped map Yellowstone, led the fight to save the buffalo, explored the Black Hills with George Armstrong Custer, helped found the New York Zoological Society, surveyed the Alaskan coast, and, among other works, authored THE CHEYENNE INDIANS: THEIR HISTORY AND WAYS OF LIFE. Grinnell’s legacy lives on in all those who venture afield.

Shortly after the September 11 attacks, Bruce Springsteen sang "My City of Ruins" for a global benefit concert carried by more than 35 U.S. networks. The song walks through a hollowed-out town of shuttered shops and empty streets before rising into a gospel prayer for strength: There’s a blood red circle on the cold dark ground And the rain is falling down The church door’s thrown open, I can hear the organ’s song But the congregation’s gone My city of ruins
