Attorney General Leslie Rutledge, who joined the seditious but unsuccessful legal effort to prevent
Joe Biden from winning the presidency, finally acknowledged his victory today. She left out a few pertinent words, which I will add in boldface:
Despite my legal efforts and Donald Trump’s incitement of a riot to prevent it ,”Today, we witnessed a hallmark of American democracy, the peaceful transition of power as President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have been sworn into office. I pray that God will grant this new Administration the wisdom to lead the greatest nation the world has ever seen. May God bless these United States of America.”

“I am humbled and honored by the historic, record-breaking outpouring of support for our campaign for governor, especially during such uncertain and challenging times. Arkansans want a bold decisive conservative with the experience to lead, and I will be ready on day one: I don’t need training wheels. I will continue to demand the best for Arkansas, so that our kids and grandkids can live, work and raise their families right here at home. Make no mistake, we will win.”

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (CNS) A federal appeals court reaffirmed a hold on an Arkansas law that bans abortions 18 weeks into pregnancy and another banning an abortion from being performed when a fetus is detected to have Down syndrome.
The Jan. 5 ruling from a three-judge panel of the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals keeps in place a federal judge’s 2019 ruling that temporarily blocked the state from enforcing the law.
The court said the Arkansas statutes are governed under established case law that restricts undue burdens on women to seek an abortion. Its decision cited outcomes of previous cases including those settled by the U.S. Supreme Court.
