 Josh Marshall tells you everything you ever wanted to know — and then some — about Arkansas' "Podiumgate" story. Sarah Huckabee Sanders! Money! Secrecy! Circumvention of FOIA requessts! Lies!

And corruption galore! The kind of corruption that can only be conjured up nowadays in a state totally controlled by Republicans, especially bible-belt ones. The kind of corruption the US hasn't seen since the gilded age.

 @f884fa2b Very interesting story with a strong stench of something illegal or immoral or both going on.

 @f884fa2b Thank you for bringing this here.  Josh tried Mastodon last 
Nov but left because he didn’t want to set up his own server and evidently was worried about imposters.  I forget to check his website now.  He is one journalist I actually trust.

 @f884fa2b @77f5e7ae She learned it from her dad, a former "Christian" pastor, when he was governor. Illegal gifts, misappropriation of tax money, destroying every hard drive in his administration on his way out the door. The only thing she didn't learn from him was how to be charming. The Huckabees are corrupt to their core.

 @f884fa2b @58a84063 It’s interesting but given how Republicans let the massively corrupt Ken Paxton off the hook in Texas despite all the evidence and witnesses against him, I see no reason to believe any of this will lead anywhere bad for Sanders.
