Apparently a spreadsheet was accidentally released by the Dept of Ed showing radically different scores for some schools for this year. Even when they game the system they screw it up and have to cheat, it would seem.

The people Gov. Sanders hired to make campaign ads that attempt to be funny have, again, failed miserably. The claim that people choose poverty because they're lazy is a disingenuous trope; her work requirement harms real people who genuinely need help.

Midterms are on the horizon and the stakes are critical for Arkansas' most economically vulnerable citizens. There's still time to learn exactly how badly the current administration has stacked the deck against those who can least take any more punches. Your vote matters now more than ever. #ARpx

Share and share and share and share! I’m from Arkansas and SO disappointed in my state. I know the corruption has always existed, but the advent of social media has brought its cruelty to the forefront.

Arkansas’ famous (and wealthiest) families are backing Republican incumbents Cotton, Crawford, Hill, Westerman & Womack for reelection in 2026.
Of course they are.

Jones is the publisher's assistant at the weekly newspaper. Sometimes called assistant publisher. Sometimes called co-publisher.

Again, we ask: Surely this front page item is appropriate for a fawning fangirl who promises "unbiased reporting"?

Cringe, at best.
