I am proud that I voted for @SecRubio for President in the 2016 @KYGOP primary. I have always thought highly of him & believe his role in the Middle East to be incalculable.
'I BELIEVE IT': President Trump declares Sec. Rubio will go down as the “greatest Secretary of State in the history of the United States.”

After 738 days in the hands of a barbaric terrorist group, the remaining hostages from the horrific Oct. 7 attack are finally home. President Trump promised to bring them home and to end the war in Gaza. Today, he delivered. Promises made, promises kept. Thank you, Mr.

Glenn Frey & Randy Meisner were still alive. Don Felder was still a member of the band. Joe Walsh had recently become an Eagle. Don Henley had the band he dreamt of growing up in Texas. Maybe the best Eagles line up ever.

Democrats have voted to block the Republican CR bill to pay our troops EIGHT TIMES over the past 3 weeks! Thankfully, our Republican Commander-in-Chief joins with us in refusing to let military families suffer due to the SCHUMER SHUTDOWN!

It’s been two weeks & I’m still living off the adrenaline of winning the third leg of the Canadian Triple Crown with our @CJThoroughbreds colt TOM’S MAGIC!
The 2025 Canadian Triple Crown concluded with a victory by favored TOM'S MAGIC in the $400,000 Breeders’ Stakes at @WoodbineTB. The son of @coolmoreamerica Justify, who was also second in the King's Plate, had Rafael Henandez in the irons for trainer @Stidhamracing.

@TBRacingInit @OBSSales @VidHorse @damon_thayer @rail_talk What happens in Florida impacts the KY thoroughbred industry. The majority of our Ky-breds will go to FL for pre-training, and many winter there: See @Godolphin's #KyDerby winner Sovereignty (@CoadyUSA photo). Support @TBRacingInit to stand behind live horse racing!
