While it’s not very Minnesotan to brag, I’ve got to brag on our state a little here: We were just ranked #1 in the country for health care.

Statement from President Clinton and Secretary Clinton

[Michael J. Miraflor @michaelmiraflor]

The NBA has honestly suppressed the fact that Jaylen Brown is a modern polymath.

Some NBA GMs said he was “too smart” for the League during the 2016 draft.

Great role model. UC Berkeley chess team. MIT Media Lab Fellow. He is such a League asset. He should be a cultural icon.

Hey Gov. I see you are in North Carolina. We don’t have power at the wastewater treatment plant near Avoca that serves much of Benton County. Lots of our roads are impassible and there are tens of thousands without power. You think maybe you could send the national guard or nah?

Last year, my friend said yes to running for office & early this morning her home was badly wrecked by a tornado.

Please wrap @stephgfunk in prayer & send her resources to keep up this fight while she takes care of her family and rebuilds.

We’ve got your back, Benton County.

[Gov. Asa Hutchinson @AsaHutchinson]

In my area of Rogers the alert systems gave early warning of the tornado. We sheltered in the house and all is safe. Grateful for the severe weather alert and for our emergency responders. https://t.co/x7L8Qjzl9J

Arkansas has lost a giant. There is only one David Pryor. The epitome of a statesman. No one was more humble. No one was more civil. No one loved Arkansas and our people more. (1/4)

@pauljudge @AtlBizChron Pops is clean! Send me that speech man.

I’d like to welcome all the new members of the “radical left” as it will be described later this week:
—the Arkansas TEA party
—the Pulaski County Republican Party
—the Saline County Republican Party
—Americans for Prosperity
—somehow the ghost of Ronald Reagan

Tuesday, September 11, 2001. We will never forget. #NeverForget911

Today, we honor the those, including my wife, who placed their lives on the line in the minutes, days, and years afterwards. These heroes make us all proud.

I’m praying for all the victims of that attack.

June was the hottest such month on record for the planet by a “substantial margin,” the EU’s Copernicus Climate Change Service reported. https://t.co/cCwRnmgZf2

@kerrijack @ARGOP Is this why they don’t care about implementing Learns too early. Is AG appeal going to State SC?

[Dr. Chris Jones @cmjones99]

@kerrijack That part!

“We’re fighting to keep our daughter’s Medicaid.”

“This is not the same Arkansas I grew up in.”

“We might have to move.”

“They raised the tuition at our school.”

This is the reality of Republican supermajority rule under Sarah Sanders. Arkansas, you deserve so much better.

Today is #Juneteenth, commemorating the day in 1865 when enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas were finally able to claim their freedom. In a conversation filmed at @SpaceCenterHou, @AstroVicGlover reflects on the holiday and its history.

[Chris Jones @JonesForAR]

In 1720, the earliest enslaved people were brought to Arkansas, 116 years before Arkansas was admitted to the union.

My ancestors, who were in here by the late 1700s, built our state with their blood and sweat. The message of emancipation literally meant everything to them. 1/🧵
