These issues have been ongoing in Arkansas for a very long time. The momentum is just not there. There has to be constant movement and support now and it always has to have that. The ball can never be dropped.

I'll never understand why artists are last for so many things. We literally bring the magic and inspiration for everything yet we are supposed to be ok with scraps or just deserted altogether. Because you know, we don't have "real" jobs.🙄

Arkansas, I'm proud to announce I am running for Congress in the 2nd District. For too long, politicians have played photo-op bingo and left working families trying to make a dollar out of fifteen cents. That ends today. I'm building the Next Arkansas where no one is left behind.

Yeah, because it's actually the violent criminals that are doing the snatching and terrorizing. This is hell. I'm so tired of this shit. We keep letting the monsters get away with this and then any city or town is next.
govpritzker.illinois.gov Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · Oct 3
Federal agents reporting to Secretary Noem have spent weeks snatching up families, scaring law-abiding residents, violating due process rights, and even detaining U.S. citizens.

They fail to focus on violent criminals and instead create panic in our communities.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.
