From Dawson Springs to DC and Beyond: The Scott Jennings Story

On today's show, Joe Arnold talks with our podcast's namesake, Scott Jennings, through his life growing up in a small, poor town to his first big break, and now the great places his career takes him.

COLUMN: Biden needs to remember ’the words of a president matter’

Last week, Oval Office staff walked back the words of President Biden several times. While the world listened to his words on Ukraine, unnamed staff made sure to walk him back as much as they could.
