“Govenor” Sanders and Cronies Race to the Bottom. And Win!
In a stunning display of authoritarianism, the Sanders’ Administration threatens to block appropriations funding to the districts of lawmakers who vote against the LEARNS Act. This comes on the heels of harassment and intimidation of school superintendents at the hands of the Administration and Republican legislators. Yikes.
Looks like the AR GOP sees DC-style politics and raises us. Only this isn’t a game and the stakes couldn’t be higher. Harassment and intimidation are tools of dictators across the globe, as is the practice of withholding resources from the public to gain leverage over opponents. We’ve firmly shifted from “win at any cost” politics to tyrannical rule. Buckle up.
