1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:02,280 Speaker 1: Our next guest grew up in a small town in 2 00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: Kentucky and went on to become the state's first black 3 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 1: attorney general. He is now gunning for the student to 4 00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:11,240 Speaker 1: be vacant Senate seat held by Mitch McConnell. So what 5 00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: drives the former attorney general and why does he want 6 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,800 Speaker 1: this job, especially after his attempt to unseat Kentucky's Democrat 7 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,959 Speaker 1: Governor Andy Basheer. We'll talk about his handling of the 8 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:26,320 Speaker 1: Brionna Taylor case, which drew protests as well as national attention. 9 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: How does he feel about his decision now? Additionally, how 10 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:34,160 Speaker 1: does he reconcile being Mitch McConnell's former general counsel while 11 00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 1: also having previously received an endorsement from President Trump? Will 12 00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:42,920 Speaker 1: that create challenges for him in this campaign? Stay tuned 13 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:50,480 Speaker 1: for all of that and more with Daniel Cameron. Well 14 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 1: Attorney General Daniel Cameron. I appreciate you making the time 15 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: looking forward to discussing why you decided to run for 16 00:00:57,200 --> 00:00:59,920 Speaker 1: a Senate and also just you know, there's a lot 17 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,680 Speaker 1: going on, all good things, but a lot going on, 18 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 1: So I appreciate you making the time for us. 19 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 2: Lisa, Thank you so much. Honored to be on with 20 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: you and I talked to you obviously, but to get 21 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,560 Speaker 2: to share with your listeners as well, and again, just 22 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 2: grateful for the opportunity. 23 00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:20,119 Speaker 1: Absolutely So I always ask people, you know the why, right, 24 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: because being out of politics is so much easier than 25 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,120 Speaker 1: being in politics. You've previously served as the attorney general, 26 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: you did run for governor, so you know, you've been 27 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: in the private sector. Why do you want to get 28 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: back into the game. You know why politics? Again, Well, 29 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 1: it's a. 30 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:37,480 Speaker 3: Thank you for asking. 31 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: Look, you know, Mackenzie, my wife and I have a 32 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 2: heart for this commonwealth, in this country. We've got two 33 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 2: little boys, Theodore's three and Benett is ten months. 34 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: And what we want to see. 35 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 2: And it really mirrors what I think the majority of 36 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 2: not only Kentucky's but Americans want to see is a 37 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 2: colorblind society. And I believe in the American identity one 38 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 2: that it's again rooted in color blindness and merit and 39 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: perseverance and grit. It's like core to our DNA as 40 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 2: Americans and in our founding. And I want to go 41 00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 2: to Washington to help promote that on behalf of the men, 42 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,679 Speaker 2: women and children of our commonwealth. I think I've obviously 43 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 2: got the track record to do so. And as Attorney General, 44 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 2: I was helping preserve constitutional rights here. 45 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 3: And standing up for our values. 46 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 2: But I want to do that in Washington and help 47 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:39,359 Speaker 2: support President Trump's agenda as well. And so this is 48 00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 2: a core conviction for us, is that you know, again 49 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,280 Speaker 2: as you have, you're raising two boys, and obviously we 50 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 2: pray for them and over them every night, but we 51 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: want them to be able to flourish in a colorblind society, 52 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 2: one in which you know, it's based on their content, 53 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 2: of their character, if you will, and their ability to 54 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 2: get things done as opposed to what they look like 55 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,839 Speaker 2: and all those other woke ideologies that exist to try 56 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 2: to divide our country. We've got to get back to 57 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 2: that core conviction that we are Americans, that we're driving 58 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:19,240 Speaker 2: towards this more perfect union and one that reflects the 59 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 2: idea that we've got to take care of our communities 60 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 2: and the folks in our homes and our states. 61 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 3: And I want to be a part of driving that 62 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:27,960 Speaker 3: in Washington. 63 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: What are you most proud of from your time as 64 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: Attorney General. 65 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: Well, you know, there were things that got a lot 66 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,480 Speaker 2: of headlines, but you let me tell you that when 67 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 2: I ran for Attorney General, I often talked about the 68 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:45,160 Speaker 2: public safety challenge that we faced here in Kentucky. In 69 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:50,000 Speaker 2: it was opioid overdoses and abuses, and we know that 70 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 2: Sittanel was coming across a poor southern border and it 71 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 2: was hurting people right here in Kentucky. But that was 72 00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: also exacerbated by wholesale distributors manufacturers of opioids that again 73 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: were you know, helping bring this poison into our communities. 74 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 2: And so as a commitment, I said, look, we're gonna 75 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: we're going to address this issue. We're going to confront 76 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 2: it and meet it face on and confront it. 77 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 3: In that way. 78 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:22,839 Speaker 2: And I was proud of the fact that these wholesalers 79 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 2: and manufacturers ultimately came to the table and acknowledged that, hey, 80 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,799 Speaker 2: we've got some we've got some culpability here, if you will. 81 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 2: And because we were able to fashion agreement, Kentucky has 82 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,559 Speaker 2: taken in nearly nine hundred million dollars. In fact, we've 83 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 2: taken in more than nine hundred million at this point 84 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,880 Speaker 2: with my predecessor, but when I was in office, we 85 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 2: took in nearly nine hundred million dollars that money's coming 86 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 2: in over a span of years, but that was a 87 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 2: moment in which, you know, regardless of where you fell 88 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,560 Speaker 2: on the political spectrum, we got people together in a room. 89 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 2: We made an agreement. We're bringing money into the state 90 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 2: to address the opioid epidemic. And look, it's not a 91 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 2: magic elixir, it's not an end all, be all, but 92 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,480 Speaker 2: it is a significant down payment to help address some 93 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,679 Speaker 2: of the challenges that we have. And when it comes 94 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:19,159 Speaker 2: to the broader argument, I was helping lead the charge 95 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 2: against Joe Biden to fight and oppose his decisions to 96 00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 2: make us less safe when it came to our southern 97 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 2: border again, because I understood the real impact that it 98 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 2: was having on families in Eastern Kentucky, in West Kentucky, 99 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 2: in Central Kentucky, and so wanted to address that. Was 100 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 2: very proud of the effort and the ability to bring 101 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,719 Speaker 2: those dollars into the state. And then I was proud 102 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: of the fact that we were able to stand up 103 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,160 Speaker 2: and preserve our constitutional rights. We had a governor that, 104 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: as crazy as the sounds, actually shut down our churches 105 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 2: and I told him before he did it that it 106 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,600 Speaker 2: was unconstitutional. I stood on the steps of our Capital 107 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: and said this is an unconstitutional act. He did it, 108 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:09,880 Speaker 2: but we took him to court, suit him and got 109 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 2: our churches reopen here in Kentucky in nine days. And 110 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 2: again that's a moment in which, you know, it's one 111 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 2: thing to talk about standing up and preserving constitutional rights, 112 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 2: but to be able to effectively do it and get 113 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 2: something changed in a positive result I was proud of 114 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 2: as well. 115 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: One of the things that did draw a lot of 116 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: attention during your time as Attorney general was the Breonna 117 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: Taylor case. It predated the George Floyd incident, but then 118 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: you know, gain more attention after that. So you know, 119 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: you decided to charge one of the officers with one 120 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: ton endangerment rather than homicide, which is what obviously. 121 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 4: You know, people who. 122 00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 1: Were protesting wanted at the time, drew a lot of 123 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: national scrutiny, a lot of protests, a lot of attention. 124 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 1: You know, look at back, is there anything you would 125 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 1: have done differently, either in your decision making or kind 126 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 1: of you know, take us through the decision making there 127 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: and what that time period was like for you and 128 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: trying to figure out what to do, what the right 129 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: thing was to do. 130 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, when I took the oath of office 131 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: in December of twenty nineteen. I said, you know, after 132 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: I concluded with the oath, I talked to some members 133 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 2: of the press that had gathered and said, you know, 134 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 2: this job won't always produce easy answers, but we. 135 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 3: Are going to do our job without fear or favor. 136 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: And that really came into focus in twenty twenty with 137 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: the passing of Miss Taylor. And it look, it was 138 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 2: there's no question it was a challenging case. 139 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 3: And I had people protesting at our house. 140 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 2: You know, folks were threatening to you know, protest our wedding. 141 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 2: You know, I had all sorts of you know, my 142 00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 2: mother was you know, sort of just you know, uh, 143 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:04,160 Speaker 2: scared for her child, her son because of all the 144 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 2: sort of vitriol and animosity that was coming. 145 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 3: But I said from the very beginning. 146 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 2: That we were going to do the job without fear 147 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 2: of favor, and we did what was right in the case. 148 00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 2: And I just note for people that, you know, the 149 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 2: the federal government when they came in in the Biden 150 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 2: administration and the Department of Justice ended up bringing the 151 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: same essentially the same charge. Now they you know, they 152 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 2: have a civil rights sort of regime that they can 153 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 2: uh file uh case, you know, specific things going and so, 154 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,119 Speaker 2: but it was essentially the same charge and wanting endangerment 155 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 2: for us and again their civil rights kind of mirror 156 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 2: that that that charge against Brett Hankinson. 157 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 3: And so you know, once. 158 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 2: People I think recognize that, you know, a lot of 159 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 2: the tension and stuff, you know, dissipated. You know, again, 160 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 2: obviously you're not going to satisfy every want, but we 161 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 2: did what was right. You know, there's no question about that. 162 00:09:06,000 --> 00:09:10,359 Speaker 2: And you all but when you're in these public positions, 163 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 2: you have to take difficult stands and have to do 164 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 2: what is right. 165 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 3: And we did that. And I'll never back away from 166 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 3: doing what is right. 167 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: I think I showed in that case that I have 168 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:27,200 Speaker 2: a strong spine and can take the heat regardless of 169 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,320 Speaker 2: what the situation is. 170 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 3: And I'm going to do what's right by the laws 171 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 3: of our state. 172 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 2: And again that doesn't discount just the heaviness of the 173 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 2: situation and the loss of a life. And I think 174 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 2: regardless of whether you got an R or D by 175 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:45,079 Speaker 2: your name, people understand that. But you have to do 176 00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 2: you have to do what's right by the law, and 177 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 2: we certainly did that. 178 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: You've been very supportive of President Trump, and he endorsed 179 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 1: you in the gubernatorial race. However, you know, you did 180 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: get your political start with Mitch McConnell, who's now retiring, 181 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,719 Speaker 1: which is the c that you have announced for Uh, 182 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,440 Speaker 1: you worked as his general counsel. 183 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 4: He kind of helped you get your political start. You know, 184 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 4: how do you bridge. 185 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: The gap between you know, these different factions in both 186 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 1: Kentucky's g O P and as well just in the 187 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: Republican Party at large? You know, will that be a 188 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 1: challenge or or you know kind of how do you 189 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: how do you see that? 190 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 3: Well? 191 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 2: Look, I am you know I certainly worked hard to 192 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 2: you know, throughout my career, whether it was you know, 193 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 2: an undergrad at U of L or in law school 194 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 2: where I was a member of the Law review where 195 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 2: you know, I was the student body president of our 196 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 2: law school. I had an opportunity to clerk for a 197 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 2: federal judge. UH, and you know, graduated from law school 198 00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: with honors and worked at a uh, you know, pretty 199 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 2: significantly sized law firm here for Kentucky. UH. 200 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 3: And so I've you know, worked hard to do the 201 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:57,559 Speaker 3: things that I've. 202 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:01,880 Speaker 2: Done over life and certainly grateful for the opportunities that 203 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 2: I've had. And what I share with people is, look, 204 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 2: I don't run away from, you know, the opportunities that 205 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 2: I've had or the responsibility that I've been given to 206 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: in service as Attorney General or in previous roles. 207 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 3: But I'm my own man, and I've. 208 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: Whether it was running for attorney general in twenty nineteen 209 00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 2: or running for governor in twenty three. I think people 210 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 2: recognize that. You know, again, you talked about twenty twenty. 211 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:38,160 Speaker 2: You know, folks weren't protesting at any other political officeholder's home. 212 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 3: They were protesting at mine. 213 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: And you know, I when people sort of connect or 214 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 2: associate me with specific folks, those folks haven't been in 215 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 2: the fire the way that I have. And again, I've 216 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,360 Speaker 2: shown repeatedly that I'll make the tough decisions and I'll 217 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: do what's right by our laws here in Kentucky and 218 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 2: by the men, women and children of our commonwealth. 219 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 3: And I'm going to continue to do that. You know, 220 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 3: it's it's my goal to bring as many people. 221 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 2: You got to have to win an election, you have 222 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 2: to have uh, you know, you got to have all 223 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: Republicans UH working together to do that, and so I 224 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 2: do want to you know, try to bring as many 225 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: people together as I possibly can. I think that has 226 00:12:22,440 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 2: to you know, ultimately be the post or somebody that's gonna, 227 00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 2: you know, hope to be in a general election. And 228 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 2: I've I've been grateful that you know, President Trump has 229 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 2: supported and endorsed me, and we uh, you know, feel 230 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 2: very strongly about what it looks like to to help 231 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 2: uh support his agenda in Washington. And you know, I'll 232 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 2: just say that I was the first statewide elected office 233 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 2: holder in Kentucky to endorse him for re election. You know, 234 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:58,199 Speaker 2: when when others refuse to do so, and you know 235 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: we're calling me and asking for my advice on you know, 236 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: whether they should support and endorse President Trump, I was 237 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 2: willing to stand out and support him. And I've never 238 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 2: backed away from that, never will I back away from it. 239 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 2: I mean, President Trump is not only changing the Republican 240 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:22,640 Speaker 2: Party in good ways, but he's changing the country in 241 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 2: preserving those ideas, that ideals that I talked about earlier 242 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,959 Speaker 2: for future generations. And you know, again, as we think 243 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 2: about our two little boys, I mean, we want them 244 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:37,320 Speaker 2: to grow up in a country that is prosperous, that 245 00:13:37,480 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 2: is strong, that is not taking advantage of, that is 246 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 2: merit based, that is color blind. Those are the sorts 247 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,840 Speaker 2: of things that we care deeply about. And it mirrors 248 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,079 Speaker 2: President Trump's agenda and his values, and so I'm hopeful 249 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 2: to continue to earn his support. And you know, this 250 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 2: race has got to be about the future. You know, 251 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: it can't be about the past. We've got to have 252 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:09,319 Speaker 2: a senator in the United States Senate that recognizes that 253 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 2: there is there are myriad opportunities for Kentucky to lead 254 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:18,720 Speaker 2: on the national landscape. Whether it's in education, or in 255 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 2: AI or robotics or in cryptocurrency, Kentucky can lead. And 256 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 2: you've got to have somebody that is in the Senate 257 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 2: continuing to press on those points. 258 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:33,880 Speaker 3: And I want to be able to do that. 259 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 2: I think I could be a pretty effective advocate for 260 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 2: those things and for the Trump agenda, and I'm hopeful 261 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 2: that again I'll earn his support and earn the support 262 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 2: of Kentuckian's because ultimately they're the ones that go to 263 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 2: the polls to make a decision about who they want. 264 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 2: And I hope that I build a strong relationship with 265 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 2: the people here in Kentucky and they've gotten to know me, 266 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: and they've gotten to know Mackenzie, and they've gotten to 267 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 2: know our family. And you know, again this is this 268 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,600 Speaker 2: is core to who we are. And I say that 269 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 2: because we are. You know, I'm not a Johnny come 270 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:10,280 Speaker 2: lately to these issues, whether it's DEI, whether it's ESG. 271 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 3: I have I've been in fid of those. 272 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: Let's talk about that for a moment, because you know, 273 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:21,320 Speaker 1: following the Gubernas Royal race, you became the CEO of 274 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: seventeen ninety two Exchange. 275 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 4: Why did you take that role and what was the 276 00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 4: what was the work there? 277 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:30,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, at least it was like a it was it 278 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 2: was the opportunity to continue some work that I'd started 279 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 2: as the Attorney General for I was the first Attorney 280 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 2: General in the nation to say that if you are 281 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 2: a member of our state pension board, then your fibuciary duty, 282 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 2: meaning your sole responsibility is to maximizing the return on 283 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: investment for the shareholder. And those shareholders in our pension 284 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: system are teachers, firefighters, and police officers, and so that 285 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: has to be your focus. It can't be these you know, 286 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 2: extraneous ideas about ESG environmental social governments, and it certainly 287 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 2: can't be that. When the Larry Thinks of the world 288 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 2: said that they want to destroy the fossil fuels industry 289 00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 2: by twenty thirty or twenty fifty in Kentucky, that means 290 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 2: you want to destroy our competitive advantage, which is coal 291 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 2: and natural gas. So I was the first Attorney general 292 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 2: to speak out on that issue. I was one of 293 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 2: just a handful of attorneys general that essentially, you know, 294 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 2: went out on a limb and said to big law 295 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:41,040 Speaker 2: firms that, hey, you cannot implement and advise companies to 296 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 2: go full force on DEI because it's it's frankly against 297 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,600 Speaker 2: the law. That was two years ago when I was 298 00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 2: making those statements, and again there weren't many people that 299 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 2: were saying that then. 300 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 3: But now, based on court. 301 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 2: Decisions and based on what we've seen from the Supreme 302 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 2: Court in the context of public universities, we know that 303 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 2: DEI is unconstitutional and is in violation of law. Again, 304 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 2: I was one of the few that was willing to 305 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 2: say that as Attorney general, and so at seventeen ninety 306 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 2: two exchange it's given me an opportunity to continue that. 307 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 3: Work on DEI and ESG there. And I've talked about 308 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:16,440 Speaker 3: this a lot. 309 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: There are a lot of things that a CEO or 310 00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 2: executives are having to compete with and having to think about. 311 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,199 Speaker 2: And some of them are willing to stand up to 312 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:30,200 Speaker 2: the pressures, and some of them, frankly, have not been 313 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 2: willing to do so. And they need encouragement, and they 314 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 2: need help in getting to the right position of back 315 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,400 Speaker 2: to neutral and away from these woke. 316 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 3: Left leaning policies. They just need they need to focus 317 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 3: on business. 318 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 2: And seventeen ninety two, Exchange has been the vehicle to 319 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 2: help companies to steer back to neutral. And I say 320 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 2: it all the time. I mean, you know, last year 321 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 2: in particular, you know, we saw that the domino, if 322 00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 2: you will, was tractors supply. And we've seen a whole 323 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 2: host of companies, iconic brands Walmart, McDonald's, Ford Motor Company, 324 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 2: that have said, hey, we are getting out of di 325 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 2: We're no longer bowing the knee to the Human Rights Campaign, 326 00:18:13,160 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 2: a far left advocacy group. We're not doing that anymore. 327 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,480 Speaker 2: We're going to focus on business. And again, to my organization, 328 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 2: we've been proud to be a part of that decision 329 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 2: making process. And again, this is a continuation of the 330 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,200 Speaker 2: work that I did as Attorney General. And the reason 331 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:30,959 Speaker 2: I wanted to jump into it is because, again it's 332 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 2: a core conviction of who I am. To stop the 333 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 2: craziness of DEI and ESG and I think we're going 334 00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,479 Speaker 2: down that road, and I want to help in the 335 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 2: Senate continue that work by being an advocate for colorblind society. 336 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 4: How has President Trump done so far? 337 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,440 Speaker 3: President Trump's been amazing. 338 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 2: I mean, here's somebody who absolutely ran on disrupting the 339 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 2: establishment in the normal going about business and looking out 340 00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 2: for the American people and the American worker. Those are 341 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 2: the things that he ran on, ran on immigration, ran 342 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 2: on bettering in our strengthening our economy for the long haul. 343 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:15,479 Speaker 3: And he's he is. 344 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 2: He's made those commitments clear and he's fulfilling those commitments. 345 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 2: And by the way, in shrinking government, which is something 346 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 2: that conservatives have been talking about for decades, but President Trump, 347 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 2: Elon Musk, others within the administration are actually getting it done. 348 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:37,560 Speaker 2: And it's refreshing to see a president who says something 349 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 2: and then actually gets it done. 350 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:43,440 Speaker 3: And I've been excited to watch and see it. 351 00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 2: From my view in Kentucky and again hope to be 352 00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 2: able come November twenty twenty six to help him in 353 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 2: those efforts. 354 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 4: We've got more with Daniel Cameron, but first. 355 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: When a woman faces an unplanned pregnancy, she is often 356 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,160 Speaker 1: pressured to enter her child's life life. 357 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,879 Speaker 4: She wants to make the right choice, but society. 358 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: And those around her are telling her that her baby 359 00:20:06,200 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: is not a life. That's where the Ministry of Preborn 360 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:12,680 Speaker 1: steps in. Preborn in their network of clinics, offers compassionate, 361 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 1: loving care to mothers and the support they need to 362 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: help them choose life, including a free ultrasound.

What kind of senator do you see yourself? 376 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 3: Bang? 377 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I see myself being a Senator that is supporting 378 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:15,959 Speaker 2: and advancing President Trump's agenda because I think it reflects 379 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 2: the values of the men, women and children of our commonwealth, 380 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: of our one hundred and twenty counties. I'll be a 381 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:25,920 Speaker 2: Senator that, as I did as Attorney General, will preserve 382 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:29,880 Speaker 2: and protect and defend our constitutional rights. And I will 383 00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 2: be a Senator that is dogged in pursuit of ensuring 384 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: that we get rid of DEI. I mean DEI is 385 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 2: ultimately become a divisive tool for the Left to use 386 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 2: to destroy the. 387 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 3: Fabric of our country. And it has to end. 388 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 2: President Trump is doing a terrific job of that work, 389 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 2: but he needs help in the Senate and somebody that 390 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 2: has a perspective that can speak on these issues in 391 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 2: a in a forceful way. And I want to do that. 392 00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 2: I want to lead on it. And again, it's not 393 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: it's not an easy thing to do, you know. I 394 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 2: get you know, as a as a black man, I 395 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: get ridiculed and talked about because you know, I hold 396 00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 2: these core convictions. 397 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 3: Uh, but that's okay. I'm willing to stand up and 398 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 3: speak the truth. 399 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,359 Speaker 2: I'm going to continue to do so, and I hope 400 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 2: to be able to do so in the United States Senate. 401 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:30,080 Speaker 1: We've seen the Republican Party evolve, and you know, President 402 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 1: Trump has really changed the party into, you know, more 403 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 1: of a working class party. We saw that movement in 404 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 1: this past election. How do you see yourself as a Republican? 405 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: You know, do you consider yourself kind of more traditional conservative, 406 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 1: you know, a populist or kind of how do you 407 00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 1: how do you define yourself? 408 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 2: I need to describe myself as a constitutional conservative, somebody 409 00:22:53,960 --> 00:23:02,680 Speaker 2: who is deeply uh concerned with the preservation of our 410 00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:04,080 Speaker 2: constitutional rights. 411 00:23:04,119 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 3: And you know, most of us think of it as 412 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:07,920 Speaker 3: our as the Bill of Rights and. 413 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 2: Being able to forcefully defend those That's how I see 414 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:17,200 Speaker 2: myself and I am. I am grateful to President Trump. 415 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's it's it's similar to what you know, 416 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: President Reagan did in the eighties and and you know 417 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 2: this this is a party and I just go back. 418 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 2: I mean, if you think about the Republican Party at 419 00:23:28,960 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 2: its inception, it is a party that is spoken for 420 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:37,040 Speaker 2: the downtrodden, those that didn't have a voice, those that 421 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 2: could not defend themselves, those that felt like that they 422 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 2: were detached from from the ability to get things done 423 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 2: on their behalf and didn't necessarily have the ability to 424 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 2: connect to the power structure, structures, or the establishment. That 425 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 2: that is the Republican Party at its inception, at its 426 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 2: core is what it was to do, was to help 427 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 2: those people, to help the downtroten, to help those that 428 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:06,040 Speaker 2: are most vulnerable. 429 00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 3: And then you think about Teddy Roosevelt. 430 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 2: I mean, here's here's somebody that recognized that, you know, 431 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,760 Speaker 2: the financial health and well being of this country couldn't 432 00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,639 Speaker 2: be in the hands of just a few. And then 433 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 2: you think of even before that, Abraham Lincoln and what 434 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 2: he did to again speak up for the vulnerable. And 435 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 2: then you think of Ronald Reagan and his idea that 436 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 2: you got to get the thumbs off of the bureaucrats, 437 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: off the backs of the hard working men and women 438 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:39,000 Speaker 2: of this country, and he brought into the party the hard, 439 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 2: hardworking folks, and that there's been a revival of that 440 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: with President Trump. He is brought back into the party 441 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 2: the people that make this country run. And there's no 442 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 2: better way to say it, and that the folks that 443 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:55,920 Speaker 2: make this country run, the people that are are our 444 00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:00,080 Speaker 2: day in day out doing the hard task that that 445 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:04,520 Speaker 2: that you know, make that build our cities, that make 446 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 2: our communities run efficiently. 447 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 3: Those people are now in the Republican Party. 448 00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 2: And we've got to say thank you to President Trump 449 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 2: for making that a reality, because those folks, in many 450 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 2: ways felt like they had been left behind and and 451 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 2: that's ended now. And I'm proud to be a part 452 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,479 Speaker 2: of a party that that that is working class, that 453 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 2: is uh, that is that parents that are deeply concerned 454 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 2: about what what is being put into their their children's bodies. 455 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 2: I'm proud to be a part of a party that 456 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,880 Speaker 2: recognizes that we've got to take care of our own 457 00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 2: and and be concerned about what's happening here in our 458 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:47,679 Speaker 2: country is as opposed to what's happening across or overseas. 459 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:50,520 Speaker 2: I mean, these are core things to to who we 460 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 2: are as Americans, and that is reflected in the values 461 00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,639 Speaker 2: of the Republican Party now and I'm proud to be 462 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:56,119 Speaker 2: a part of it. 463 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 3: Before we go. 464 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 1: There's been a lot of controversy for the former Columbia 465 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: University student, my Mood Khalil.
