Arkansas' Under‑the‑Radar Issues:

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone.

Seeing all of these reactions from these Dems and libs reminds me of the saying "scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds"

They do not see leftists as allies and are quick to turncoat if we call them out on their b.s.
