Jester calls for fellow Republican to drop out of GOP runoff for Arkansas secretary of state over social media posts | Arkansas Democrat Gazette Arkansas Secretary of State Cole Jester condemned secretary of state candidate Bryan Norris for apparent profane and conspiratorial social media posts Thursday, calling for him to drop out.

It's almost cute that Cole Jester thinks bat shit crazy social media posts should disqualify someone in a Republican primary.

UPDATED: Arkansas public television commission pauses state plan to break off from PBS | Arkansas Advocate Arkansas' public television commission voted Thursday to pause efforts to become the first state to cut ties with PBS after hearing almost two hours of frustrated public comments from opponents…

Clearly, Carlton Wing is going to cling to his specious argument that Arkansas public TV network has to disaffiliate from PBS for financial reasons unto his last breath, even though no one else is buying it.

UPDATED: Arkansas State Police intentionally crash into another car with a child inside - Arkansas Times A state trooper intentionally crashed into a speeding car on I-630 last week. The driver was a parent racing a child to the hospital.

Twice in 2 months, Arkansas State Police have endangered kids' lives with deliberate car crashes that turned out to be mistakes. If someone doesn't bring Mike Hagar & his crash-happy troopers to heel, tragedy is inevitable.

Seriously? Is Hester *that* inexcusably dense? It's hardly a matter of gender or ageism. Let's start with nepotism in politics gone horribly wrong, then go from there.

How slaveholding families reasserted themselves after the Civil War Despite losing vast amounts of wealth tied to slavery, forebears of three U.S. lawmakers found ways to rebuild and pass down power, often by subjugating Black people.

Wow look at French Hill's slave owner ancestors. It sure does explain a lot about him manipulating skin color of his Black opponents in previous campaigns. #arleg #ar02

Sarah Sanders does this in Arkansas, as well - while I don't see the overt threats as much as Trump threatens to primary Rs who don't agree with him, it's still very much present.

I'd like to know who she favors in District 92 so I can make sure the opponent gets votes. #ARLeg

Listen to women suffering under the Arkansas abortion ban, don't dismiss them - Arkansas Times Harrowing stories continue to emerge, demonstrating how the state’s abortion ban, as currently written, needlessly puts women in danger.

My column in @arktimes.bsky.social: Arkansas leaders should listen to harrowing stories of women challenging state's flawed abortion ban that endangers every woman of childbearing age, not reflexively dismiss them to bow to anti-abortion absolutists.

If you're collecting petition signatures for ballot initiatives in Arkansas & Cole Jester's "fraud" investigator demands to see your ID, you can refuse - and you might also add, "Russian warship, go f**k yourself" ...

Trey Bohannan, business partners with a pedophile, gets endorsement from Kid Rock  - Arkansas Times Whether this changes anything for BoDirt in his race against Sen. Ron Caldwell is anyone's guess, but it's a tone-deaf and darkly ironic endorsement regardless.

THIS ISN'T WEIRD. AT. ALL. Arkansas Gov. Sarah Sanders reached out to her bestie Kid Rock to ask him to make a video endorsing the TikTok influencer she recruited to challenge a state senator who opposed her Franklin Co. prison scheme.

Thousands of Arkansas third graders could be held back under LEARNS retention rule | Arkansas Democrat Gazette Thousands of third-graders who fall short of Arkansas’ reading standard could be forced to repeat the grade under a rule taking effect this year as part of the LEARNS Act.

Worth noting that none of the Arkansas third-graders whose parents get taxpayer dollars to subsidize private school or homeschool educations are in danger of being held back for not meeting Gov. Sanders one-size-fits-all reading mandate. Only public school students.
