Nebraska Dems hosting Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear, possible 2028 presidential candidate

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear speaks during the Semafor World Economy Summit 2025 at Conrad Washington on April 23, 2025 in Washington, DC. () LINCOLN — Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear is coming to Nebraska to speak to Democrats for the state party's top annual fundraising event in November. Beshear is a Democratic governor in a deeply red Republican state. He and other 2028 potential presidential hopefuls visited South Carolina in recent weeks, to test the water for their campaign messages. He was picked to lead the Democratic Governors Association into next year's midterm elections and has been touted as 'most popular Democratic governor in America.' Beshear was attorney general of Kentucky before becoming governor in 2019. His father was previously governor. National Democrats have been seeking answers as President Donald Trump made gains among working-class voters, including minority voters, last year. A trend of prominent Democratic figures making their way to the heartland has emerged, and some are crossing the Missouri River from traditionally first-in-the-nation Iowa into Nebraska. Independent U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders launched his 'Fighting Oligarchy' nationwide tour in Omaha. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz hosted a Democratic town hall earlier this year And Former Texas U.S. Rep. Beto O'Rourke is having a similar town hall in Omaha next month. The events with prominent Democratic figures appear aimed at energizing the Nebraska Democratic base for the midterms and come when two federal races could be competitive. SUBSCRIBE: GET THE MORNING HEADLINES DELIVERED TO YOUR INBOX Nebraska's 2nd Congressional District has drawn national attention as its single presidential race electoral vote has swung from Republicans to Democrats in recent years, most recently to former Vice President Kamala Harris in 2024. Nebraska could regain the national spotlight in 2026, with an open seat race in the state's 2nd District for the U.S. House and Dan Osborn's nonpartisan Senate bid against Republican U.S. Sen. Pete Ricketts. Both races could determine which party controls what parts of Congress. But Nebraska Democrats face an uphill battle in a state where Republicans outnumber Democrats about 2 to 1, Republicans have gained a legislative supermajority, and the party last held a congressional seat with former U.S. Rep. Brad Ashford in 2017. SUPPORT: YOU MAKE OUR WORK POSSIBLE

Tesla disappoints on earnings but wins on one major front

Tesla disappoints on earnings but wins on one major front originally appeared on TheStreet. Tesla didn't mention Bitcoin once in its second-quarter 2025 financial filing, even as investors and analysts scanned the company's balance sheet for any sign of movement in its crypto treasury. The silence isn't new. Tesla hasn't added or sold any Bitcoin for eight straight quarters, and the company's digital asset holdings remain unchanged at $184 million, according to the 10-Q form filed with the SEC on July 23. That's the same value it reported in the first quarter of 2024, with no impairment losses or gains noted this time either. Tesla had initially bought $1.5 billion worth of Bitcoin in early 2021. Since then, it's sold off the majority, with the last major sale happening in Q2 2022 when it offloaded roughly 75% of its BTC stash. Tesla holds 9,720 BTC as of its last disclosure. At today's Bitcoin price of $118,000, that stash is worth approximately $1.15 declines Beyond crypto, Tesla's earnings disappointed on several fronts. The company reported revenue of $22.5 billion — missing analyst estimates of $22.74 billion — and adjusted earnings per share of $0.40, below the expected $0.43. Automotive revenue fell 16% year-over-year, the second straight quarterly decline. In early July, Tesla had already reported a 14% drop in Q2 vehicle deliveries to 384,000 units. The stock is down roughly 18% this year, marking the worst performance among big tech names. By comparison, the Nasdaq Composite is up about 9% in 2025. Meanwhile, Tesla has delayed its affordable 'Model 2' EV, leaving the field open for rivals. Chinese EV makers are aggressively pushing cheaper, tech-laden vehicles that are eating into Tesla's global market share. Still holding the bag Despite the financial and political turbulence, Tesla appears to be holding firm on its crypto position—for now. But with mounting pressure from declining revenues and reputational hits, investors are watching closely for any future changes to the company's digital asset strategy. As of now, though, the Bitcoin line in Tesla's earnings reports remains quiet. No buys. No sells. Just HODLing. Tesla disappoints on earnings but wins on one major front first appeared on TheStreet on Jul 23, 2025 This story was originally reported by TheStreet on Jul 23, 2025, where it first appeared.
