There isn't a lot we can do about national politics at the moment, but we can strike a blow for more transparent and inclusive leadership here at home. Please contribute so we can return Washington County to a better kind of politics. goodchange.app/version-live...

I joined the Marines at 17 during the Cold War with a clear-eyed understanding of the Evil Empire. Shame on KGB Colonel Putin’s American apologists.

As for me… Росомахи!

The lead prosecutor in the Eric Adams case has resigned over DOJ's order that the case be dismissed.

"I expect you will eventually find someone who will be enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me."

The American Bar Association has just called upon every attorney, regardless of their political views, to join them & stand up for the rule of law & at minimum insist that our government "follow the law."

Every lawyer has an ethical responsibility to do so.

USAID’s inspector general—presumably operating from a remote base in the mountains—has just released a report on the staggering effect of the Trump Administration’s assault on the agency. oig.usaid.gov/sites/defaul...

We set a fundraising goal to determine if there's enough interest for me to run for Judge. In one month, we are 2/3 of the way to achieving that goal, which will be astonishing for a county-wide race in Arkansas once announced. Just today, we received $5303. goodchange.app/version-live...

I hadn’t been on Twitter since the election. I fully closed it down tonight. It was hard to give up on 5500 followers (>6000 pre-election), but I just can’t with that guy.

I really like our new logo. This is still an exploratory effort, but we are working hard to put the pieces together.

My desire to serve as Washington County Judge is based on want changing the kind of negative politics that divides us and keeps us from tackling big issues. That requires running a robust campaign, which requires funding. Please donate to positive change.

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.

My name's Dana and it might be a sin, but the devil was clearly a far better fiddle player than that Georgia redneck, Johnnie.

I was so embarrassed about where I lived as a teenager that I would get dropped off in front of a nice place then walk two miles or so to where I really lived. Wish I could go back in time and tell that kid it wouldn't just turn out fine, it would be pretty great.

After encouragement from many of you, I am exploring a run for office in Washington County in 2026. If I do, it will be based on the premise that in these parts there’s a hunger for a leadership based on experience, inclusion, and practical problem solving. It’s time for a new kind of politics.
