NEW: Arkansas bars public officials who've been appointed by the governor to seek a full term for their position.
The 2 justices appointed by Governor Sanders are using a way around that — they're just running for each other's seats.

I studied the Brontes in college and even got to go on a trip where we visited Haworth and hiked across the moors and yes, I do know what Wuthering Heights is really about but also: I just wanna watch Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi be hot, ok.

Monday Etta had to unexpectedly run a mile in health class for the fucking Presidential Physical Fitness Test, which is back. She was given no warning so she ran the mile in cargo jeans and platform converse, on an empty stomach (she is not a breakfast eater). God 8th grade sucks.

She really just said why are you talking about the mass coverup of child rape when you should be talking about money
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

Colo. Sen. Michael Bennet (D) is claiming credit for spending projects he voted against. Bennet said he couldn't support other issues in the bills.
Unlike Rep Lauren Boebert (R), who's done the same, Bennet wouldn't say if he still would have voted NO if he was the deciding vote

Before we give @colorado.gov credit: he didn't refuse to attend, he was disinvited. And after all that toadying up to the Trump administration, praising RFK, wooing Palantir's evil surveillance corp to build their HQ here, and breaking state law to collaborate with ICE??? I'd think he'd be welcome!
No way will I attend the White House dinner with this President.

And I’m calling on my Republican colleagues to do the same.
