Arkansas guard Meleek Thomas on his pre-game routine: “Making sure I talk to the Lord, talk to Jesus. When I wake up, when I go to sleep, before a game… without him I can’t do nothing. Bad game, great game… you know you can follow Him.” ✝️

Racist imagery isn’t a joke or a mistake. And Arkansans know it’s disgusting. Families are struggling and serious questions remain about epstein, yet French Hill is silent when it matters. @RepFrenchHill, it’s time to tell us if you support this OR the people you represent.
A video posted on President Trump’s Truth Social account portrays former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as apes.

Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come.  This is one of them.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.
