Arkansas is the 1st state to sever ties with PBS following defunding by Republicans like French Hill. In its place will be “Arkansas TV,” which will be run by political insiders. Arkansans aren't stupid: this is an ideological takeover to bring MAGA into Arkansas homes.

RIP, Arkansas PBS - Arkansas Times
The end of federal funding for public media demolishes Arkansas PBS. The station will rebrand as ATV and feature mainly local programming.

BERMAN: Would it be legal for police in Arkansas to kill suspected drug dealers on a boat in a lake?
TOM COTTON: The premise of your question is not well-founded
BERMAN: The answer is no. It would not be legal to kill them.

It turns out that letting kids starve and firing hard working Americans actually does motivate people to vote for change.

There’s $5 billion sitting in a SNAP contingency fund. It’s money that could keep families fed during a shutdown. USDA isn’t using those funds. And French Hill and his pals are doing nothing.
We’re paying taxes. They’re playing politics.
The result, kids go hungry while cash sits in a bank.

French calls it “clean.” But the fine print tells another story. Higher healthcare costs and insane Medicaid cuts.
It’s not clean. It’s cruel.
We’re three weeks into this shutdown, French. How much longer will you let it continue?
Arkansans deserve better.
