Washington County Justice of the Peace, professional roaster of teenagers, and other things.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

Y’all, I swear, the Washington County Quorum Court is the most petty gathering of people I have ever been a part of.

Last night’s Quorum court was full of
The Judge strutting about like a peacock
Lisa Ecke referring to herself as a minority
Attempts to justify the term “identity politics “
And
Two unusual bipartisan agreements

Always proud and inspired by my JP colleague, Beth Coger.
Here's a win for public transparency from the Arkansas Court of Appeals thanks to Elizabeth Coger, a Washington County JP who sued the county for violating state FOIA rules on open meetings.
Court of Appeals upholds Washington County verdict in favor of open meetings
This was at least the third FOIA lawsuit loss for the county in recent years.

Arkansas State Police: please stay off the roads.

Washington County Judge: the courthouse is closed because of weather, but get in here for the meeting tonight to deal with these 3 agenda items.

My favorite part of Quorum Court tonight was watching the County Judge throw a self righteous hissy fit over JPs getting a raise. We are the third largest county but pay JPs at 3rd from the bottom, and he was big mad.

This is how County Attorney Brian Lester responds to an elected Justice of the Peace when she asks a completely reasonable question about why public comment was absent before votes at our last meeting.

Officially deactivated and deleted the twitter app. I’m not participating in anything that makes money for that man.

What a time for all my juniors to be reading 1984 in their English classes.

I keep saying “Oh, reading current events?” 😂

It’s only been four days and it’s already overwhelming to open any social media.
It’s too much too fast.

Tonight at Quorum Court

JP Ecke: I really wish there was something we could do about affordable housing.

Immediately votes against the 1M$ for affordable housing.

Usually, I leave Quorum court With a broken heat. Tonight, I left with a full heart.
I made a motion to fund the Washington County HIV clinic that was being cut by the county Judge.
It passed unanimously. 💕
