A sincere apology and explanation for “working tirelessly for a ceasefire” would be a good place to start imho


I'm Austin Ahlman. Nebraska is my home. This is our fight. You are my people. Let’s take Nebraska back.



They literally cannot even model pro-life conservatives as people who genuinely think of abortion as murder. Like, as soon as they try to imagine being a person who genuinely thinks it’s murder, so that they can follow from that position to the obvious policy consequences, their brain like glitches out and they go immediately back to being confused. This is the simplest, most obvious, most straightforward case we’re just simply modeling the other person‘s mind leads immediately to their full suite of policy preferences. And they literally can’t even do it in this case. I’ve watched them glitch out on it like a hundred times during in-person debates. You can almost see on their face how difficult it is for them.



literally no one buys their flight based on emissions, this is useless information

A statement from Gov. Beshear.







Beshear is the chair of a nonprofit that has received tens of millions in taxpayer funds. Beshear and Hal Rogers are co-chairs and two of only three officers of the nonprofit called Shaping Our Appalachian Region (SOAR). To date, SOAR has received over $8.5 million in Kentucky taxpayer funds and was just awarded an additional $1.5 million in HB 900, which was signed by Beshear a week ago. Also, in 2024, the Biden administration announced it would receive an additional $40 million in funding. SOAR is one of the regional innovation hubs that receives government funding to foster startups, tech-enabled businesses, small business growth, and economic development across the commonwealth. Other examples include Awesome Inc. and Amplify. Andy Beshear is the chair and an officer of only this one nonprofit, SOAR. In fact, when I searched for Beshear as an officer of other organizations, I found no other for-profit or nonprofit entities he is involved with. Historically, SOAR has structured its board this way: making the governor and a congressman the co-chairs and two of the only officers of the organization. They also place the Senate president and House speaker on their board, though not as officers or chairs. That said, this arrangement is improper. The governor should not have control over a nonprofit that receives millions in taxpayer funds. It can at least be perceived as an end-run around normal procurement and auditing laws that govern government spending—laws that do not apply to private entities receiving public funds. It especially looks bad when you consider how much more funding SOAR has received since Beshear became chair. In 2019, SOAR brought in $1.2 million (mostly in government funding). In 2024, SOAR brought in nearly $3.5 million, mostly in government funding, with millions more promised in the coming years. Am I saying SOAR hasn’t done anything good? No. I’m simply calling into question the ethics of having the very people who sign off on your taxpayer funding also sitting on your board.
