.@EDSecMcMahon is right: Parents, not the government, should be in charge of their children’s education.
School choice puts Arkansas students first.
Beef prices are too high for a simple reason: Our cattle herd is too small. Imported beef below market prices will only put more pressure on our cattlemen. I have advised the President against this ill-advised action in the past and I now urge him to reconsider. We need to support our cattlemen, grow the herd, and let the market work.

Iran’s revolutionary fanatics are never going to make the kind of deal we could accept.
It’s time to finish the job and prevent Iran from blocking the Strait of Hormuz.
Jay Clayton is a highly qualified nominee with a deep experience combatting a wide range of national security threats. As U.S. attorney, Mr. Clayton has worked hand in glove with our intelligence agencies and counterterrorism personnel to lock up criminals who threaten our national security. I’m pleased that my colleagues voted to confirm Mr. Clayton as Director of National Intelligence and look forward to working with him to keep Americans safe.

.@SecWar is right.
Investing in our defense doesn’t just keep us safe.
It strengthens our communities by creating good jobs in places like South Arkansas.
Israel is our democratic ally fighting Hezbollah, Iran’s terrorist proxy with American blood on its hands. President Trump is right: Iran needs to restrain its terrorist proxy, the U.S. should never restrain Israel from defending itself. And if Iran won’t act, we should back Israel to the hilt.

Pointing out that COVID leaked from a lab in Communist China was never a conspiracy, it was common sense.
The conspiracy was Tony Fauci and his assistants doing Xi Jinping’s dirty work and lying about COVID’s origins.
I’m thankful that @TheJusticeDept and @FBI are holding these fraudsters accountable.
