Abortion, healthcare as a human right, and political hypocrisy—Andrew Cooperrider debates Christopher Campbell (Kentucky Party U.S. Senate candidate for 2026) in this intense segment!
If healthcare is a “human right,” does that mean we force doctors to work at gunpoint—or admit it’s just someone else’s labor we’re entitled to?
Why do pro-choice politicians scream “my body, my choice” for abortion but cheer forcing taxpayers to fund endless wars that kill born children abroad?
Is “bodily autonomy” absolute only when it ends a life in the womb—but not when it comes to refusing experimental mandates?
How can anyone claim to be pro-human rights while defending 625,000 abortions a year as “healthcare,” yet ignore that real child neglect is already illegal?
Andrew argues: True rights don’t come from coercing others. The Kentucky Party calls itself anti-war and anti-corruption—but can a party that prioritizes “total bodily autonomy” over unborn life really claim the moral high ground?

Kentucky taxpayers gave $110,000,000 to a Chinese battery plant that is currently delayed in getting to full production.

Kentucky taxpayers also gave $350,000,000 to Ford to build two battery plants in partnership with SK. Now the battery project takes another negative turn, pointing to a potential failure.

Are Kentuckians going to get their money back? Signs are not looking good.

Also in this episode is an exclusive interview with Rep. Thomas Massie.

He opens up on:

-Why he's running for re-election

-Trump's intense opposition and attacks

-His key accomplishments in Congress

-Why some call him a RINO with "Trump Derangement Syndrome"

-Why Congress hasn't delivered on 2024 promises to voters

Unless something changes, Mitch McConnell killed Kentucky’s hemp industry.

Under a last-minute rider he slipped into the continuing resolution, 97.5–100% of the hemp currently being grown in Kentucky could be declared illegal by the federal government—not just in the Bluegrass State, but nationwide.

Growers would be forced to switch overnight to a genetically modified hemp strain that may not even exist yet— if the new language is interpreted to cover living plants and not just finished products. Even if such a miracle seed magically appears, 97.5% of Kentucky’s existing crop is grown for CBD flower and other products that McConnell’s amendment would explicitly outlaw.

Katie Moyer—current treasurer and former president of the Kentucky Hemp Association, and owner of Kentucky Hemp Works—joins the show to explain:

- Where the industry was just months ago.

- How it’s been gutted in a single stroke.

- Why Mitch McConnell, once celebrated as the “father of hemp,” just drove the final nail into its coffin.

A few weeks ago, Governor Beshear "found" $9 million in order to shore up a funding shortfall in the senior meals program.
The administration blamed the Trump administration for the sudden deficit, but in a legislative hearing, the Beshear administration admitted that they had projected the shortfall months earlier and hadn’t bothered addressing it. Instead, they expanded the program.
In the same legislative hearing, the chair requested some financial documents from Beshear's budget director, and he refused to turn them over. This prompted a fiery response from Rep. Petrie.
Also, FCPS continues to dominate headlines as it faces four major looming issues related to budgeting, union fights, eminent domain, and proposed policies that attack free speech.

Two months ago, I sent an invitation to all declared Republicans running in the 6th Congressional District to take part in a video forum similar to the one I did for some of the Kentucky Senate candidates recently.

The request included the very candidate-friendly details: the candidates would receive ten questions and have three weeks to record video responses that could average three minutes each.

Out of all the candidates, only Ryan Dotson agreed, so I sat down with Rep. Dotson and we had a conversation about domestic and foreign policy, federal spending, immigration, and a few other topics.

You can listen to it here.

What role should America play in supporting Israel?

Is the national debt a problem?

Why do you think McConnell has such a low approval rating?

I asked Kentucky US Senate candidates Andy Barr, Daniel Cameron, and Nate Morris these questions in part 2 of the video forum I did with these three of the six or so Republican candidates who have said they are running for the US Senate in Kentucky.

You can also listen to this and part 1 on all major podcasting platforms; just search "The Andrew Cooperrider Show."

I asked Andy Barr, Nate Morris, and Daniel Cameron about immigration, Rand Paul, Mitch McConnell, the Ukraine war, and why they are even running for the Senate in the first place.

This is episode one of two, and next week I ask about the national debt, Israel, and a few other topics.

Beshear finds $9.1 million in Kentucky's couch cushions to fund a senior meals program.

While most of us have no issue with the program itself, it does leave one to wonder why Kentucky just has $9.1 million somewhere we were previously unaware of. Beshear said the money was earmarked for a Medicaid study that was never done.

Where else do we have money just squirreled away that the government doesn't realize it has?

A Kentucky Democratic legislator is on work release from house arrest while doing legislative work in Frankfort. Rep. Beverly Chester-Burton is serving 10 days of home incarceration for a 2024 DUI plea.

Ed Gallrein jumps in to run against Massie.

Shelby County Schools seems to be hiding financial information in order to run the clock out on a tax referendum signature drive.

Levi Anderson joins the show to talk about how the community in Shelby County is trying to fight back against a 10% property tax revenue increase from the schools.

Community members have been requesting financial information from the schools through open records requests. The schools have been late in responding. When they do respond they claim there is some technicality wrong with the request. Why are they doing this?

The citizens only have 8 more days to get signatures from registered voters in order to put the tax increase on the ballot. If Shelby County Schools can hold off on revealing potentially damning information, it won't motivate voters to sign and the tax increase can go through, BEFORE the voters find out about the waste, fraud, and abuse inside the school system.

Powell County Schools is raising property taxes over 15% while student enrollment has dropped 20% over the last ten years. How do the people fight back when school districts in Kentucky are engaging in predatory taxation?

Shannon Denniston joins the show to talk about how citizens are trying to stop the Powell County increase.
