Axios’ editorial comms director who is relentlessly pushing the Axios/Tapper book about Biden was a literal Republican operative who did comms for Ron Johnson, Kevin Cramer, the RNC, the ND Republican Party, and worked on Rand Paul’s 2016 campaign.

This isn’t the first time, and it will not be the last if we don’t stop allowing laws to go into effect that give fetuses the same human rights as you and me.

It turns women into mere incubators.

It tortures families.

It makes a mockery of health care.

You know, Sarah Huckabee could move back to Florida just as quickly as she moved here. And our state would be better for it. #arpx #arbluedots seriously, go back.

So, what is it that the MAGA crowd likes about Donald Trump? Is it the higher grocery prices? The cratering stock market? The damage to our alliances? The erosion of our democracy? Please clue me in.

Chris Murphy: "Let's remember- congressional Republicans held up Ukraine aid for over 6 months, allowed for Russia to go on the offensive. So even before Donald Trump was president, congressional Republicans were not doing the things necessary to support the most vital fight in defense of democracy"

I would think the GOP would LOVE town halls, given their amazing success with the economy, the stable international situation, and how beloved Elon Musk is by the American people.

Last Friday, Rep. Alyssa Brown filed HB1554, which would mandate tracking every embryo created for IVF or other reproductive services.

This is an absurd and grotesque overreach into women and families’ most private struggles. This is what we were fighting against with the Abortion Amendment. #arpx

FACTS! " House Republicans are hurting the American people.

It's unacceptable, unconscionable, unamerican, and we're not going to stand for it. One minute.

The Republican budget represents the largest Medicaid cut in American history."

In Arkansas, 5 of 8 nursing home residents are able to live in assisted living because of Medicaid. Half of Arkansas kids are able to go to the doctor when they are sick because of Medicaid.
The Waltons have enough. Strengthen Medicaid to protect kids, moms, the disabled, and elderly.

Consider this:

The Senate has just voted to confirm Kash Patel as FBI Director in a narrow 51-47 majority.

Trump nominee Chris Wray passed 92-5.

Only Rand Paul voted against James Comey.

Robert Mueller was confirmed 98-0.

Patel is historically unqualified & we are not safe!

I’ll say this positively. I thank the handful of my Republican colleagues who objected when the US President stood with a bloody totalitarian murderer against a struggling democracy.

Not today, not tomorrow, but the rest will face history’s harshest judgment.

Arkansas PBS was set up with independent governance because, in America, we don't have government-controlled media. Just imagine the political interference & propaganda we'll see when Jacob Oliva gets his mitts on PBS.

As of 2024, about 66,143 U.S World War II veterans are still alive, according to the National WWII Museum. The war was sparked by the 1939 Nazi invasion of Poland and incursion into Europe. An estimated 407,316 Americans died during World War.

Reminder: The Nazis were the bad guys.
