Conservatives Play Musical Chairs to β€œCement” Majority on Arkansas High Court - Bolts How seat-switching, plus a new state law, is helping gubernatorial appointees reap the benefits of incumbency before they’ve earned it from voters.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders appointed 2 supreme court justices to "cement" court's conservative majority.

Arkansas' constitution banned them from seeking a full term for their own seat. They decided to circumvent that by... running for each other.

This Tuesday, one of them faces challenger John Adams:

Sad but true. We have gone from the WWII GI with Hershey bars to the malevolent ignorant evil that is Trump. Too big to be stopped. For now.

Our government is pro death. A fast death for Iranians. A slow one for us.

How fitting that this illegal war was launched from the U.S.S. Gerald Ford, named for the man who launched the travesty that American presidents are above the law

Colorado borders Kansas. Here is a Colorado non-profit that helps trans people relocate, Trans Continental Pipeline.

America is not looking for another tyrant. America wants the rule of law back. And that means enforcing the law. If you are not interested in enforcing the law you shouldn’t be in office.

LOL, how many presidents can Tommy Tuberville name let alone reflect on? He probably has no idea who those other guys are.

He would know, as he is the president of another failed nation.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

Our priorities are so fucked.

Our nation has a poverty problem because it has a billionaire problem.

Not a hell of a lot to smile about right now. Maybe smile because she is privileged to be interviewing the great JD Vance???

I have had it with fucking men who think women should smile more. jD Vance should grow a conscience and resign.

Another way Republicans are going to kill us. Chalk them up. ICE. No health care. Work requirements for SNAP. Rural hospitals closing. Cuts in vet care. No vaccines and no recommending vaccines. How quickly can we regress to the Middle Ages? We will find out soon.

As a country we suck at judging character. And we are misogynists.

Two beautiful intelligent people. We are not worthy of them. Donald Trump is dirt under their feet.

MS is smarter than AR, where vouchers are destroying the public schools and bankrupting the state.

At my MN precinct caucus tonight, a resolution calling on ICE to be more professional & follow the law got all Nays, but an "Abolish ICE" resolution got a unified resounding "AYE".

It will be so much fun to dynamite it when the time comes.

This article coming from the ultra right wing Democrat Gazette is remarkable. Maybe ruby red Arkansas is starting to realize how much Trump’s policies are hurting the state.

So. We don’t audit ourselves and have the most corrupt administration we’ve had in decades. But we’re going to audit some other country? Because we can?

Arkansans, vote for Chris Jones for Congress this November. French Hill cares about bankers and billionaires. Not you.

It is the supreme law. It is not a statute.

Me neither. So strange, to be inside a country being destroyed BY ITS OWN GOVERNMENT.
