He knows damn well that the KY GOP super-majority will likely override this veto, but he does it anyway because he actually has the courage of his convictions, a rare quality in a politician these days. He'll always have my vote.
Why aren’t all the Dem Governors doing it?!?
Far better candidate than Newsom.
It doesn’t need most of the ones it has already.
I'm not Christian, but I don't care how devout he is as long as he's supporting policies that I care about.
FDR gave regular "fireside chats" which were the radio-era equivalent of a podcast.

LFG!
People like Walz and Beshear make it inconvenient because they win broad appeal while making strong commitments to decency and rights.
I like that Tim Walz, AOC, et al are getting out there now, there's good energy. Everyone is testing the waters.
Pete Buttigieg should have more air time
He was a good foil for Pelosi. We can gripe about the party but we've got to keep at it. ✌️
