When states lead, kids succeed.  That’s why ED is giving states historic levels of flexibility, control, and resources.

The four-foot firefighter: Florida lifesaver takes record as shortest woman in profession

All my hard work has finally paid off!

Excellent bipartisan work by @SenRickScott & @SenJackyRosen to recognize the evil of Iran proxy Hamas.

Meet Colt Shelby I grew up in Cecil, Arkansas, the son of Ronnie and Lisa Shelby, and I’m proud to be a sixth‑generation member of my community. I’ve attended Cecil Methodist Church for nearly 30 years, and it remains an important part of my life. Soon after graduating high school, I went to work on drilling rigs for Thornton Drilling out of Van Buren, Arkansas. I stayed with that company for nearly 16 years, working through two buyouts before moving on to a large oil company based in Houston, Texas. Over the last twenty years, I’ve managed hundreds of millions of dollars in contracts and led teams of men and women with one shared mission: work safely and work responsibly. I bought my first home in 2003—where I still live today—and in 2006 I married my longtime friend, Elizabeth Burt of Charleston. Together, we’ve raised our three children: Riley, Cooper, and Truett. Like many families, we dreamed of owning a farm, and in 2016 we purchased our first 80 acres. Little by little, we expanded it. While I worked away from home, my family tended the cattle and worked the fields. It was the Arkansas dream—raising a family and building a farm through hard work and faith. My interest in public service began in 2024 when Governor Sanders announced plans to place a 3,000‑bed prison just four miles from our home. As I traveled across multiple counties, I realized that many Arkansans shared concerns not only about this issue but about the overall direction of our state. I attended meetings and events across Arkansas, meeting people who care deeply about our future. I listened to frustrations about education, fiscal responsibility, government transparency, the farm economy, healthcare, infrastructure, crime rates, food insecurity, infant mortality, women’s health, and more. These conversations made one thing clear: Arkansans want common‑sense leadership that puts people first. Our state motto, Regnat Populus—“The People Rule”—should mean something. Too many, Arkansans feel like their government is hiding things from the hardworking taxpayers who keep this state running. I’m running to restore trust, transparency, and accountability to the Governor’s office. I hope to earn your vote on November 3rd, 2026. I believe I’m the right person for this job because I’m willing to listen, to work, and to stand shoulder‑to‑shoulder with the people of Arkansas. I can’t fix these issues alone. It will take all of us. Every morning I wake up thinking about the same question: If Arkansas stays on this path, what will our state look like in 100 years? That question drives me to act.

Some critics online don't like my welfare work requirement ad. Next thing you know they’ll say I should have used cookies instead of cheese balls. If you are able-bodied you should not collect welfare simply because you choose not to work. Period. WATCH->

You pay taxes to cover welfare for people who just choose not to work. That’s why I launched a welfare-to-work requirement. If you’re young, healthy, and get government assistance, you should work, go to school, or volunteer.

X locked my account and forced me to remove this post: Bibi the Baby Butcher must be stopped. He is as bloodthirsty and insane as Hitler. We are in World War 3. Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Jordan, and Iran will be destroyed if the Zionists are not stopped. Arabs and Persians must unite and march on Israel from all sides.
