Mitch McConnell: “Mitch McConnell is tone deaf but he is color blind in the worst sense of the fashion, in the worst sense of the word.”

You’re right to expect your representatives to work hard for you. And part of my decision to retire at the end of my term this coming January was being honest about the demands of Senate work.

I'm still working hard to get back to my full schedule of work in the Senate and in Kentucky, keeping up with intense physical therapy per my doctors' orders.

Even in the public eye, I feel that same instinct – I can’t help it.

There’s no place I’d rather be on the first Saturday in August than with the good people of western Kentucky, feasting on pork and mutton.
