Aaron Viles, Kimberly Cecil-Jones, and our brand spanking new co-host, Katherine Mueller are thrilled to bring you this week's #ColonelsOfTruth. We talk about Governor Beshear's proposed historic investment in education, and how the KY GOP-dominated General Assembly has responded. Then Katherine walks us through Mitch's comments on Biden's efforts to advance federal voting rights and Kimberly brings us the news we need in under 5 minutes - then we welcome Christina Trosper - a teacher in Knox Co., and a member of KY120 United AFT  - and determine whether the KY GOP is waging a war on public education, or if it just looks that way. We then close with our new, critical, 3 point plan to turn KY purple! Join us!
