Arkansas lawmakers filed two identical 122-page bills late Monday afternoon seeking to enact the governor’s higher-education overhaul plan. Arkansas ACCESS address higher-education funding, admissions policies, course credit and scholarships. #arpx #arleg

A proposed Arkansas law to require public schools to teach students about “the failures of communist and autocratic systems” of government will go to Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ desk. #arpx #arleg

Make sure you're following everything your state lawmakers are doing down in Little Rock. Sign up for my legislative newsletter at gregleding.com/newsletter. I generally send only one a week while we're in session, usually each Monday morning. #ARpx

Arkansas Municipal League, which has considerable juice at the State Capitol, has joined the battle to stop Rep. Brit McKenzie's bill to prevent cities from dealing with short-term rental party houses by precluding local regulation. #arpx #arleg #arnews katv.com/news/local/c...

A divided House committee on Monday advanced two bills to regulate how signatures are gathered in Arkansas for citizen-led ballot initiatives after nearly six hours of debate that included at-times passionate testimony and bipartisan opposition. #arpx #arleg

SHS Higher Education bill is crap. Love how she claims to have fixed k-12 education. My grandkids still haven't got the reading tutors she promised two years ago. More performative and harmful bullshit. #arbluedots governor.arkansas.gov/news_post/sa...

Elon, those salts are for the bath, not for consumption!!!

Arkansas' secretary of state this week presented his findings from a "top-to-bottom security review" of the state's election procedures. #arpx #arleg

Medicaid, medicare and Snap are being cut for 1 reason, and it isnt to pay down our debt. Its to slash income taxes for the wealthiest 1%. They're waging a class warfare against the proletariat. When do we revolt?

1977 the KGB opened a Trump file. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018...

Does this surprise anyone? A former Soviet intelligence officer has claimed Donald Trump was recruited by the KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.”

Fearless and independent investigative journalism is needed more than ever in these times. Attempts to suppress this story on Trump and the KGB demonstrate this ⬇️ To help fund the stories you won't read in the established press, and to keep honesty alive, subscribe: subscribe.bylinetimes.com

Former KGB spy breaks cover to reveal Donald Trump was recruited as a Russian spy 38 years ago. Byline Times was subjected to a DDOS attack to prevent this story being published. bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

Earlier today, the Daily Beast’s Isabel van Brugen published a bombshell story about allegations by Kazakh Spy Chief Alnur Mussayev that the KGB had recruited Donald Trump as a Soviet Asset way back in 1987 under the code name “Krasnov.”

"Mussayev’s claims are not the first [...] of Donald Trump’s recruitment to the KGB, but it is the first time that Trump’s alleged Russian codename, ‘Krasnov’, has been identified." Another piece from @bylinetimes.bsky.social goes where lesser papers fear to tread. bylinetimes.com/2025/02/21/d...

Read before it's gone Donald Trump recruited by KGB in 80s www.irishstar.com/news/us-news...

Why was this Daily Beast bombshell report— alleging that “Krasnov”, aka Trump, was recruited by Russia’s KGB decades ago—deleted and scrubbed from DB’s website and other sites w/no retraction? #He’sATraitor

I just want to make sure this is seen, since other news has also come out online about the same topic. I can't say I'm not frightened because all this is scary. #OURAmerica #StrongerTogether #BlueCrew Prominent DOGE Staffer Is Grandson Of Turncoat KGB Spy open.substack.com/pub/jacobsil...

Gov. Sanders' higher ed bill bars national independent accrediting agencies from considering diversity criteria in evaluating Arkansas colleges & universities. So if these agencies won't bend to her will, state institutions' accreditations could be at risk. #Arkansas #arpx #arleg #arnews

A House bill to allow NIL fundraising raffles failed, and a Saracen Casino executive said he was “blindsided” by “false testimony” from the athletic director of the University of Arkansas. #arpx #arleg

Just had a patient upset that his favorite Taco Shop has closed in the last week.. Owners said it was for safety reasons. Patient couldn't fathom why an immigrant ran business z that caters to immigrants felt the need that they needed to close for their safety Took everything in me to not go off

Just vaccinate your kids please. Literally people are arguing about the meningitis vaccine. I've personally seen in turn fatal in as little as 24hrs. I've seen a literal girl home from school sick on Wednesday and then hear that her parents are making funeral plans on Friday. Don't play around

Really hoping the voices of students w/ disabilities are truly *heard* during the #ArkansasAccessAct hearings. So often, decisions about accessibility are made *for* us, not *with* us. Let's change that. #EducationReform #DisabilityRights #ARLeg

"But Erwin Chemerinsky, a constitutional law expert and the dean of the UC Berkeley School of Law, wrote in an email that the lawsuit clearly asks the court to declare the entirety of Section 504 unconstitutional. He called the request “truly stunning.” #arpx

Arkansas lawmakers are considering a handful of bills that will make it harder (if not impossible) for regular, grassroots Arkansans to participate in direct democracy. Three bills—SB207, SB208, SB211—would add MORE barriers to the already difficult citizen-led ballot initiative process. 🧵 #arpx

Why are MAGAts trying to destroy U.S. higher education? Universities are centers of democracy. Historically, students have been key resisters of fascism. That’s all you need to know. Fabulous interview with Yale-based philosopher Jason Stanley. #ARpx

A reminder, to stay vigilant! Continue to contact your Senators and tell them to VOTE NO to HB1382🚫 #DisabilityRightsAR #arpx #arleg
