Our next guest grew up in a small town in Kentucky and went on to become the state's first black attorney general. He is now gunning for the student to be vacant Senate seat held by Mitch McConnell. So what drives the former attorney general and why does he want this job, especially after his attempt to unseat Kentucky's Democrat Governor Andy Basheer. We'll talk about his handling of the Brionna Taylor case, which drew protests as well as national attention. How does he feel about his decision now? Additionally, how does he reconcile being Mitch McConnell's former general counsel while also having previously received an endorsement from President Trump? Will that create challenges for him in this campaign? Stay tuned for all of that and more with Daniel Cameron. Well Attorney General Daniel Cameron. I appreciate you making the time looking forward to discussing why you decided to run for a Senate and also just you know, there's a lot going on, all good things, but a lot going on, So I appreciate you making the time for us.

Absolutely So I always ask people, you know the why, right, because being out of politics is so much easier than being in politics. You've previously served as the attorney general, you did run for governor, so you know, you've been in the private sector. Why do you want to get back into the game. You know why politics? Again, Well, it's a.

Thank you for asking.

Look, you know, Mackenzie, my wife and I have a heart for this commonwealth, in this country. We've got two little boys, Theodore's three and Benett is ten months.

Look, you know, Mackenzie, my wife and I have a heart for this commonwealth, in this country. We've got two little boys, Theodore's three and Benett is ten months.

And what we want to see.

And what we want to see.

And it really mirrors what I think the majority of not only Kentucky's but Americans want to see is a colorblind society. And I believe in the American identity one that it's again rooted in color blindness and merit and perseverance and grit. It's like core to our DNA as Americans and in our founding. And I want to go to Washington to help promote that on behalf of the men, women and children of our commonwealth. I think I've obviously got the track record to do so. And as Attorney General, I was helping preserve constitutional rights here.

And standing up for our values.

And standing up for our values.

But I want to do that in Washington and help support President Trump's agenda as well. And so this is a core conviction for us, is that you know, again as you have, you're raising two boys, and obviously we pray for them and over them every night, but we want them to be able to flourish in a colorblind society, one in which you know, it's based on their content, of their character, if you will, and their ability to get things done as opposed to what they look like and all those other woke ideologies that exist to try to divide our country. We've got to get back to that core conviction that we are Americans, that we're driving towards this more perfect union and one that reflects the idea that we've got to take care of our communities and the folks in our homes and our states.

What are you most proud of from your time as Attorney General.

What are you most proud of from your time as Attorney General.

Well, you know, there were things that got a lot of headlines, but you let me tell you that when I ran for Attorney General, I often talked about the public safety challenge that we faced here in Kentucky. In it was opioid overdoses and abuses, and we know that Sittanel was coming across a poor southern border and it was hurting people right here in Kentucky. But that was also exacerbated by wholesale distributors manufacturers of opioids that again were you know, helping bring this poison into our communities. And so as a commitment, I said, look, we're gonna we're going to address this issue. We're going to confront it and meet it face on and confront it.

In that way.

In that way.

And I was proud of the fact that these wholesalers and manufacturers ultimately came to the table and acknowledged that, hey, we've got some we've got some culpability here, if you will. And because we were able to fashion agreement, Kentucky has taken in nearly nine hundred million dollars. In fact, we've taken in more than nine hundred million at this point with my predecessor, but when I was in office, we took in nearly nine hundred million dollars that money's coming in over a span of years, but that was a moment in which, you know, regardless of where you fell on the political spectrum, we got people together in a room. We made an agreement. We're bringing money into the state to address the opioid epidemic. And look, it's not a magic elixir, it's not an end all, be all, but it is a significant down payment to help address some of the challenges that we have. And when it comes to the broader argument, I was helping lead the charge against Joe Biden to fight and oppose his decisions to make us less safe when it came to our southern border again, because I understood the real impact that it was having on families in Eastern Kentucky, in West Kentucky, in Central Kentucky, and so wanted to address that. Was very proud of the effort and the ability to bring those dollars into the state. And then I was proud of the fact that we were able to stand up and preserve our constitutional rights. We had a governor that, as crazy as the sounds, actually shut down our churches and I told him before he did it that it was unconstitutional. I stood on the steps of our Capital and said this is an unconstitutional act. He did it, but we took him to court, suit him and got our churches reopen here in Kentucky in nine days. And again that's a moment in which, you know, it's one thing to talk about standing up and preserving constitutional rights, but to be able to effectively do it and get something changed in a positive result I was proud of as well.

One of the things that did draw a lot of attention during your time as Attorney general was the Breonna Taylor case. It predated the George Floyd incident, but then you know, gain more attention after that. So you know, you decided to charge one of the officers with one ton endangerment rather than homicide, which is what obviously.

You know, people who.

You know, people who.

Were protesting wanted at the time, drew a lot of national scrutiny, a lot of protests, a lot of attention. You know, look at back, is there anything you would have done differently, either in your decision making or kind of you know, take us through the decision making there and what that time period was like for you and trying to figure out what to do, what the right thing was to do.

Yeah, you know, when I took the oath of office in December of twenty nineteen. I said, you know, after I concluded with the oath, I talked to some members of the press that had gathered and said, you know, this job won't always produce easy answers, but we.

Are going to do our job without fear or favor.

And that really came into focus in twenty twenty with the passing of Miss Taylor. And it look, it was there's no question it was a challenging case.

And that really came into focus in twenty twenty with the passing of Miss Taylor. And it look, it was there's no question it was a challenging case.

And I had people protesting at our house.

And I had people protesting at our house.

You know, folks were threatening to you know, protest our wedding. You know, I had all sorts of you know, my mother was you know, sort of just you know, uh, scared for her child, her son because of all the sort of vitriol and animosity that was coming.

You know, folks were threatening to you know, protest our wedding. You know, I had all sorts of you know, my mother was you know, sort of just you know, uh, scared for her child, her son because of all the sort of vitriol and animosity that was coming.

But I said from the very beginning.

But I said from the very beginning.

That we were going to do the job without fear of favor, and we did what was right in the case. And I just note for people that, you know, the the federal government when they came in in the Biden administration and the Department of Justice ended up bringing the same essentially the same charge. Now they you know, they have a civil rights sort of regime that they can uh file uh case, you know, specific things going and so, but it was essentially the same charge and wanting endangerment for us and again their civil rights kind of mirror that that that charge against Brett Hankinson.

And so you know, once.

And so you know, once.

People I think recognize that, you know, a lot of the tension and stuff, you know, dissipated. You know, again, obviously you're not going to satisfy every want, but we did what was right. You know, there's no question about that. And you all but when you're in these public positions, you have to take difficult stands and have to do what is right.

I think I showed in that case that I have a strong spine and can take the heat regardless of what the situation is.

And I'm going to do what's right by the laws of our state.

And I'm going to do what's right by the laws of our state.

And again that doesn't discount just the heaviness of the situation and the loss of a life. And I think regardless of whether you got an R or D by your name, people understand that. But you have to do you have to do what's right by the law, and we certainly did that.

You've been very supportive of President Trump, and he endorsed you in the gubernatorial race. However, you know, you did get your political start with Mitch McConnell, who's now retiring, which is the c that you have announced for Uh, you worked as his general counsel.

He kind of helped you get your political start. You know, how do you bridge.

The gap between you know, these different factions in both Kentucky's g O P and as well just in the Republican Party at large? You know, will that be a challenge or or you know kind of how do you how do you see that?

Well?

Well?

Look, I am you know I certainly worked hard to you know, throughout my career, whether it was you know, an undergrad at U of L or in law school where I was a member of the Law review where you know, I was the student body president of our law school. I had an opportunity to clerk for a federal judge. UH, and you know, graduated from law school with honors and worked at a uh, you know, pretty significantly sized law firm here for Kentucky. UH.

And so I've you know, worked hard to do the things that I've.

And so I've you know, worked hard to do the things that I've.

Done over life and certainly grateful for the opportunities that I've had. And what I share with people is, look, I don't run away from, you know, the opportunities that I've had or the responsibility that I've been given to in service as Attorney General or in previous roles.

But I'm my own man, and I've.

But I'm my own man, and I've.

Whether it was running for attorney general in twenty nineteen or running for governor in twenty three. I think people recognize that. You know, again, you talked about twenty twenty. You know, folks weren't protesting at any other political officeholder's home.

They were protesting at mine.

They were protesting at mine.

And you know, I when people sort of connect or associate me with specific folks, those folks haven't been in the fire the way that I have. And again, I've shown repeatedly that I'll make the tough decisions and I'll do what's right by our laws here in Kentucky and by the men, women and children of our commonwealth.

And you know, I when people sort of connect or associate me with specific folks, those folks haven't been in the fire the way that I have. And again, I've shown repeatedly that I'll make the tough decisions and I'll do what's right by our laws here in Kentucky and by the men, women and children of our commonwealth.

And I'm going to continue to do that. You know, it's it's my goal to bring as many people.

And I'm going to continue to do that. You know, it's it's my goal to bring as many people.

You got to have to win an election, you have to have uh, you know, you got to have all Republicans UH working together to do that, and so I do want to you know, try to bring as many people together as I possibly can. I think that has to you know, ultimately be the post or somebody that's gonna, you know, hope to be in a general election. And I've I've been grateful that you know, President Trump has supported and endorsed me, and we uh, you know, feel very strongly about what it looks like to to help uh support his agenda in Washington. And you know, I'll just say that I was the first statewide elected office holder in Kentucky to endorse him for re election. You know, when when others refuse to do so, and you know we're calling me and asking for my advice on you know, whether they should support and endorse President Trump, I was willing to stand out and support him. And I've never backed away from that, never will I back away from it. I mean, President Trump is not only changing the Republican Party in good ways, but he's changing the country in preserving those ideas, that ideals that I talked about earlier for future generations. And you know, again, as we think about our two little boys, I mean, we want them to grow up in a country that is prosperous, that is strong, that is not taking advantage of, that is merit based, that is color blind. Those are the sorts of things that we care deeply about. And it mirrors President Trump's agenda and his values, and so I'm hopeful to continue to earn his support. And you know, this race has got to be about the future. You know, it can't be about the past. We've got to have a senator in the United States Senate that recognizes that there is there are myriad opportunities for Kentucky to lead on the national landscape. Whether it's in education, or in AI or robotics or in cryptocurrency, Kentucky can lead. And you've got to have somebody that is in the Senate continuing to press on those points.

And I want to be able to do that.

And I want to be able to do that.

I think I could be a pretty effective advocate for those things and for the Trump agenda, and I'm hopeful that again I'll earn his support and earn the support of Kentuckian's because ultimately they're the ones that go to the polls to make a decision about who they want. And I hope that I build a strong relationship with the people here in Kentucky and they've gotten to know me, and they've gotten to know Mackenzie, and they've gotten to know our family. And you know, again this is this is core to who we are. And I say that because we are. You know, I'm not a Johnny come lately to these issues, whether it's DEI, whether it's ESG.

I have I've been in fid of those.

I have I've been in fid of those.

Let's talk about that for a moment, because you know, following the Gubernas Royal race, you became the CEO of seventeen ninety two Exchange.

Let's talk about that for a moment, because you know, following the Gubernas Royal race, you became the CEO of seventeen ninety two Exchange.

Why did you take that role and what was the what was the work there?

Why did you take that role and what was the what was the work there?

Yeah, at least it was like a it was it was the opportunity to continue some work that I'd started as the Attorney General for I was the first Attorney General in the nation to say that if you are a member of our state pension board, then your fibuciary duty, meaning your sole responsibility is to maximizing the return on investment for the shareholder. And those shareholders in our pension system are teachers, firefighters, and police officers, and so that has to be your focus. It can't be these you know, extraneous ideas about ESG environmental social governments, and it certainly can't be that. When the Larry Thinks of the world said that they want to destroy the fossil fuels industry by twenty thirty or twenty fifty in Kentucky, that means you want to destroy our competitive advantage, which is coal and natural gas. So I was the first Attorney general to speak out on that issue. I was one of just a handful of attorneys general that essentially, you know, went out on a limb and said to big law firms that, hey, you cannot implement and advise companies to go full force on DEI because it's it's frankly against the law. That was two years ago when I was making those statements, and again there weren't many people that were saying that then.

But now, based on court.

But now, based on court.

Decisions and based on what we've seen from the Supreme Court in the context of public universities, we know that DEI is unconstitutional and is in violation of law. Again, I was one of the few that was willing to say that as Attorney general, and so at seventeen ninety two exchange it's given me an opportunity to continue that.

Work on DEI and ESG there. And I've talked about this a lot.

Work on DEI and ESG there. And I've talked about this a lot.

There are a lot of things that a CEO or executives are having to compete with and having to think about. And some of them are willing to stand up to the pressures, and some of them, frankly, have not been willing to do so. And they need encouragement, and they need help in getting to the right position of back to neutral and away from these woke.

Left leaning policies. They just need they need to focus on business.

Left leaning policies. They just need they need to focus on business.

And seventeen ninety two, Exchange has been the vehicle to help companies to steer back to neutral. And I say it all the time. I mean, you know, last year in particular, you know, we saw that the domino, if you will, was tractors supply. And we've seen a whole host of companies, iconic brands Walmart, McDonald's, Ford Motor Company, that have said, hey, we are getting out of di We're no longer bowing the knee to the Human Rights Campaign, a far left advocacy group. We're not doing that anymore. We're going to focus on business. And again, to my organization, we've been proud to be a part of that decision making process. And again, this is a continuation of the work that I did as Attorney General. And the reason I wanted to jump into it is because, again it's a core conviction of who I am. To stop the craziness of DEI and ESG and I think we're going down that road, and I want to help in the Senate continue that work by being an advocate for colorblind society.

How has President Trump done so far?

President Trump's been amazing.

President Trump's been amazing.

I mean, here's somebody who absolutely ran on disrupting the establishment in the normal going about business and looking out for the American people and the American worker.

He's made those commitments clear and he's fulfilling those commitments. And by the way, in shrinking government, which is something that conservatives have been talking about for decades, but President Trump, Elon Musk, others within the administration are actually getting it done. And it's refreshing to see a president who says something and then actually gets it done.

Yeah, I see myself being a Senator that is supporting and advancing President Trump's agenda because I think it reflects the values of the men, women and children of our commonwealth, of our one hundred and twenty counties. I'll be a Senator that, as I did as Attorney General, will preserve and protect and defend our constitutional rights.

President Trump is doing a terrific job of that work, but he needs help in the Senate and somebody that has a perspective that can speak on these issues in a in a forceful way. And I want to do that.

We've seen the Republican Party evolve, and you know, President Trump has really changed the party into, you know, more of a working class party. We saw that movement in this past election. How do you see yourself as a Republican? You know, do you consider yourself kind of more traditional conservative, you know, a populist or kind of how do you how do you define yourself?

Being able to forcefully defend those That's how I see myself and I am. I am grateful to President Trump. I mean, it's it's it's it's similar to what you know, President Reagan did in the eighties and and you know this this is a party and I just go back. I mean, if you think about the Republican Party at its inception, it is a party that is spoken for the downtrodden, those that didn't have a voice, those that could not defend themselves, those that felt like that they were detached from from the ability to get things done on their behalf and didn't necessarily have the ability to connect to the power structure, structures, or the establishment. That that is the Republican Party at its inception, at its core is what it was to do, was to help those people, to help the downtroten, to help those that are most vulnerable.

I mean, here's here's somebody that recognized that, you know, the financial health and well being of this country couldn't be in the hands of just a few. And then you think of even before that, Abraham Lincoln and what he did to again speak up for the vulnerable. And then you think of Ronald Reagan and his idea that you got to get the thumbs off of the bureaucrats, off the backs of the hard working men and women of this country, and he brought into the party the hard, hardworking folks, and that there's been a revival of that with President Trump. He is brought back into the party the people that make this country run. And there's no better way to say it, and that the folks that make this country run, the people that are are our day in day out doing the hard task that that that you know, make that build our cities, that make our communities run efficiently.

And we've got to say thank you to President Trump for making that a reality, because those folks, in many ways felt like they had been left behind and and that's ended now. And I'm proud to be a part of a party that that that is working class, that is uh, that is that parents that are deeply concerned about what what is being put into their their children's bodies. I'm proud to be a part of a party that recognizes that we've got to take care of our own and and be concerned about what's happening here in our country is as opposed to what's happening across or overseas. I mean, these are core things to to who we are as Americans, and that is reflected in the values of the Republican Party now and I'm proud to be a part of it.

President Trump so eloquently put it, it turns out you just needed a new president. And so this president has run on enforcing our immigration laws, cutting and cracking down on a legal immigration.
