For the families of these hostages - and for many more around the globe - this painful chapter is finally over. Congratulations to @POTUS for brokering this historic deal to support our ally, Israel, and the cause of peace.
President Donald J. Trump delivers remarks to Israel's Knesset in Jerusalem. 🇺🇸 "After two harrowing years in darkness & captivity, 20 courageous hostages are returning to the glorious embrace of their families... Today, the sun rises on a Holy Land that is finally at PEACE."

For more than 20 years, Southeast Kentucky has had a champion fighting for them in Frankfort. Rep. @KenUpchurch is a great leader who has helped invest in the future of Kentucky infrastructure. It'll benefit generations to come. Congratulations on your well-earned retirement!
Rep. Ken Upchurch, R-Monticello, announces he's not seeking reelect. That leaves 2 big holes in the KY legislature with 2 of its most steady, most quietly powerful members (Upchurch & fellow retiring lawmaker/road committee chair Sen. Jimmy Higdon) retiring.

A Perry County sex predator will receive three life sentences following prosecution by our Office. Crimes against children happen in communities across Kentucky, and I encourage every adult to know the signs and how to report it. More: https://t.co/xFgDZmXA4T

Kentucky parents must take the threat of @Roblox and online exploitation seriously. I'm glad to see the Murray Police Department talking with families about the dangers our kids face. https://t.co/SnGVKmU56E

It's time to deliver justice for the families of Powell County Sheriff Steve Bennett and Deputy Arthur Briscoe. I'm proud to stand with @Smithkysenate in calling on Governor Beshear to sign a death warrant for this brutal murderer. https://t.co/wd06c4dKU9

Our country was horrified by Charlie Kirk's assassination. But on Roblox, so-called "assassination simulators" exposed kids as young as five to the bloody murder. We’re taking @Roblox to court because protecting children isn’t optional in Kentucky. https://t.co/HP96HZD8SN

The simulations allowed "children as young as five years old to access animated bloody depictions of the September 10 shooting," the lawsuit said.

Congratulations to colleagues from the first Trump Admin who were confirmed by the Senate: Mike Stuart, Kurt Alme, Bart Davis, Mike Dunavant and Ron Parsons. Earlier this year, KY Deputy AG Rob Duncan and I led dozens of former U.S. Attorneys to support their nominations.
🚨BREAKING: The Senate just voted to CONFIRM 107 Trump nominees in one package.

With @JeffCountyCAO, we won a major appeal to keep guns out of the hands of convicted felons. Together, we’re protecting Louisville families, reduing threats to our law enforcement officers, and keeping criminals off our streets. https://t.co/oWAjSjNmnQ

The court of appeals argued “history and tradition relevant to the Second Amendment support Congress’s power to disarm those that it deems dangerous."

Jefferson County mom Courtney Norris had a clear warning for her fellow parents: "Assume that @Roblox is the Wild West for bad actors who are experts at exploiting our kids." Our Office is standing with Courtney and all Kentucky parents to protect our kids online.

Two years ago today, Hamas murdered more than 1,200 innocents — including 46 Americans — and took more than 250 hostages. Kentucky will continue standing with our ally Israel and against the ugly smear of antisemitism in this Commonwealth and around the globe.

.@AGLizMurrill was one of the first to sound the alarm about the dangers of Roblox, and we're proud to stand with her in this effort to protect kids from online exploitation.
Glad to see my friend, @kyoag Russell Coleman, join me in recognizing what I’ve been saying all along: Roblox is dangerous for children. We will not stand idly by while this company exploits children to make billions in profit.

Roblox is a nightmare scenario for parents like me. This company has sold out children’s safety for profit. We filed a lawsuit to come after Roblox with the full force of the law. My message to parents: get your kids off Roblox. https://t.co/v3wYY01dy7
