Closing Ad in Kentucky Gov Race Hits Andy Beshear For Resistance Ties |

A new TV ad released this week in Kentucky hits Democrat gubernatorial candidate Andy Beshear for his record of standing with the radical "resistance" and against Kentucky values. |

Gov. Dunleavy simply pointed out what many on the left like to ignore - that the Green New Deal, with all its lofty promises and price tags - would have some very real, negative consequences for local communities and economies. For that, he got some AOC snark. |
What Happens Next: |
Gov. Dunleavy invited the freshman Congresswoman to Alaska to see things for herself. We’ll see if she accepts… |
