Yeah, because I figure if I do, then you would talk about nothing else instead of the important actions that we're actually taking today, which unfortunately is not surprising that while we are focused on things that actually impact our state and impact Arkansans, the media wants to spend all of their time focused on things that frankly don't. Any other questions? Look, Sarah Huckabee Sanders does not want to talk about Lechtern Gate. I'm Ben Mycelis from the Midas Touch Network. She wants to try to distract the people of Arkansas from a growing scandal we've been covering here on the Midas Touch Network, where she paid her friend Virginia Beckett close to $20,000 back in June, the same time she took

a very lavish trip to Paris with her friend Virginia Beckett. Virginia Beckett started a new company, Beckett Events, LLC. And then Sarah Huckabee Sanders claims she bought a lectern from Beckett Events, LLC, which served somewhere in the process of the acquisition of a lectern, even though Beckett Events doesn't do that, that it was somehow a $20,000 Falcon lectern, even though Falcon lecterns cost $7,500 and it appears to be a fake Falcon lectern. Also, nobody's seen this lectern anymore. There's currently an investigation taking place in Arkansas and Huckabee Sanders, the governor, the MAGA Republican governor of Arkansas, wants to distract the people from

this. One way to distract the people, the latest way to distract the people is let's talk about what's a big MAGA Republican theme. Ding, ding, ding. If you guessed banning books, that is correct. Now, Sarah Huckabee Sanders has appointed to the Arkansas State Library Board an individual by the name of Jason Rappert, who suggested that, yup, Jesus would be burning and banning books. You heard that right. Here is a video of Jason Rappert now on the Republican, a Republican appointee now on the Arkansas State Library Board. Here he is suggesting that Jesus would also be burning

books and taking away books. Play this clip. And I'm telling you, we've let the left so redefine everything that you can't, that, you know, anger in and of itself is not bad. And we've seen this even creep in, Senator Sullivan, to our own ranks. All right. You get people that you get up and given a passion speech about abortion. Oh, well, you just hate women. You don't like women. And you hear this stuff take off. And I see our own side get into this junk. And it really is a stench in the nostrils of God, in my opinion, because we see that Jesus, there were times even when Jesus went into the temple, he took a whip of cords that he made and that he flogged people and run them out, turned over the tables. Well, I don't see Senator Sullivan and people going into the library and throwing books out in the yard and burning them and that sort of thing.

But, you know, Jesus just might have done it himself if he was going to do is also remove funding from certain schools that are challenging or who are bringing litigation against the Republican-led government that's trying to ban the books. Take a look at Rappert right here. Until the outcome of the litigation is secured, or maybe even disperse it to the other libraries to make sure that the funding is going where it should go. And so I look forward to learning all about that, seeing what our capability is to support Act 372 and the wishes of the legislature. Okay, so Sarah Huckabee Sanders going through your MAGA Republican playbook,

how do you distract from criming and fraud and investigation? Well, first you talk about banning the books. Next up on the list, banning woke words. You heard that right. Sarah Huckabee Sanders held a press conference a month or so ago where she said that she is going to get rid of all of the woke words. She signed an executive order. Any woke words, see you later in the state of Arkansas. Banned. Woke words. Woke words. For all these people who say they're free speech absolutists, you use a woke word, banned. Here she is at a press conference. You'll notice that whenever she does these press conferences too, and I'll show you another one, they do this graphic by where the lectern should be kind of covering up where the lectern is because no one's seen this lectern ever again.

This Falcon lectern that again is not $20,000 and is a fake Falcon lectern. But no one's seen this lectern ever again, this Falcon lectern that, again, is not $20,000 and is a fake Falcon lectern. But here you go. Watch Sarah Huckabee Sanders banning woke words. Play the clip. On the left, women have taken a backseat to political correctness. It's why Senator Irving and Representative Barker had to pass the Fairness in Women's Sports Act to defend our girls across the state. They're using nonsense words to erase women and girls and more importantly to erase our voices and our experiences. Today we're taking a stand against woke nonsense. What frankly started as a fad among a few grad students has seeped down into

corporations, the healthcare industry, and increasingly state government. It's demeaning to women and it needs to stop. In a moment I'll sign an executive order banning a number of all sorts of ridiculous words from state government documents. Those include words like pregnant people, laboring person, birth giver, and several other nonsense terms that have cropped up in recent years. Some on the left will accuse us of being nitpicky, that Arkansas should just lay down and accept the cultural revolution without complaint. I say it's the exact opposite. It's the left that decided that woman is a dirty word. It's the left that decided we needed to toss out basic biology

and basic grammar along with it. I think they're just mad that conservatives are starting to fight back and they better get ready because we're just getting started. What do you do next? You go on the tour with Fox and you tell Fox, we're banning woke. We're going after the woke. That's a major thing that we're doing. Watch Sarah Huckabee Sanders talk about banning woke words on normal. And the left continues to push this woke agenda, basically trying to erase the differences of women versus men, ignoring all of science and biology and completely ignoring the fact that women have a unique perspective. Only women can actually give birth, no matter how many different ways they say it.

That fact is completely based in science and reality. And we are no longer going to allow them to redefine terms that weaken and frankly demean women here in state government documents and here in the state of our country. Okay, now after banning woke words, what else do you do? What's the MAGA Republican playbook? Well, when you're being investigated for crimes, just projection and confession, and then you go out there and just start saying, well, you're tough on crime, right? Heart disease, blood clots, strokes, and kidney failure, this can all be found in the back of an ibuprofen bottle. And to top it all off, ibuprofen doesn't even get

to the main cause of your pain and swelling problems. It's only temporary pain relief, and it's only masking the true problem, which is inflammation. Ibuprofen isn't a solution to your pain. That's why you need to stop what you're doing and head over to getnativepath.com slash Midas. You need to check out their native path krill oil.

Sarah Huckabee Sanders says that look how law and order she is, that she is demanding that the corrections department add 500 more beds to the prison system in Arkansas. And she attacks the Arkansas corrections head, by the way, who like was appointed by and like worked with her dad and play the clip. And I want to talk about that in a moment. Play. Last week, the Arkansas State Board of Corrections refused to approve Secretary

Perfuri's thoughtful, informed, and desperately needed request to open up hundreds of additional prison beds. This is simply unacceptable. For far too long, there has been a revolving door in our state's prison system. Criminals commit crimes, get sentenced by the court system, and then because of a shortage of bed space are let back out on the streets with just a slap on the wrist. We must enforce the law and quit putting our citizens lives at risk. I've said it before and I'm saying it again, the failed status quo will not continue as long as I'm governor. We have the space. We have the resources. We have the personnel. All that stands between us and a safer,

stronger Arkansas is bureaucratic red tape. Here's the thing about that as well. If you actually go into the facts too, and this just goes to show you again, it's all performance. It's all cosplay fascist theater. Like this corrections officer head is not like a liberal person. I mean, it's someone who'd otherwise be sympathetic to Sarah Huckabee Sanders. In fact, at the most recent hearing that I suppose precipitated, whatever the heck that was right there, the corrections department was actually open to adding more beds. They just said they couldn't make that decision at that exact moment in time. They wanted to have another hearing. That's what

they said. By the way, I think that there are broader and bigger systemic issues in the state of Arkansas that are actually contributing to the incarceration rate. And that's actually what needs to be addressed. And by adding 500 beds, that doesn't solve the problem. I don't know, like maybe Arkansas ranking 49th in crime, 49th in education, 47th in healthcare, 40th in infrastructure. I could keep going on. Those are not good stats. But Sarah Huckabee Sanders, her move is let's just add more beds and let's pretend that

we are tough on crime. All right. So we're going down our list. We're banning books. We're banning woke words. We're doing performative pieces that were tough on crime. What else do we have here? Of course, you got to ban critical race theory, make up a construct, and then say you're going to ban that. Here, play this clip. The dividing line in America is no longer between right or left. The choice is between normal or crazy. It's time for a new generation of Republican leadership. Upon taking office just a few weeks ago, I signed executive orders to ban CRT,

racism, and indoctrination in our schools. And by the way, can we bring Michelle Wolf back, please, whenever I do these clips? Remember Michelle Wolf at the White House Correspondents Dinner that Donald Trump had such a fragile ego that he could never even show up to any of these because he can't handle a freaking joke. I just want to show you this. Remember, Michelle Wolf, your play this clip. And of course, we have Sarah Huckabee Sanders. We are graced with Sarah's presence tonight. I have to say I'm a little starstruck. I love you as Aunt Lydia and the Handmaid's Tale. Mike Pence, if you haven't seen it, you would love it. Every time Sarah steps up to the podium,

I get excited because I'm not really sure what we're going to get. You know, a press briefing, a bunch of lies, or divided into softball teams. It's shirts and skins, and this time, don't be such a little bitch, Jim Acosta. I actually really like Sarah. I think she's very resourceful.

Like, she burns facts, and then she uses that ash to create a perfect smoky eye. Like maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's lies. It's probably lies. And I'm never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders. You know, is it Sarah Sanders? Is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders?

Is it Cousin Huckabee? Is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders? Is it cousin Huckabee? Is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders? Like what's Uncle Tom, but for white women who disappoint other white women? Oh, I know,000 lectern purchase from her friends, even if a valid purchase, a $20,000 lectern where Arkansas actually needs money to go to actual things, but it's not even a real lectern. No one's seen the lectern. And so then you get into this kind of Ponzi scheme cover-up mode where it's then just ban the books, ban the words, ban this, ban that, go after this, go after that. And it's like, what are you doing to deliver actual things for the people? What are you doing to make sure that people's health care is being looked at? What are you doing to make sure that people's standards of life are increasing? What are you doing to protect and preserve the incredible natural resources in the state,

the beauty of the state, what makes Arkansas? What are you doing to protect the parks in the state? What are you doing? And I think you come to the conclusion over and over again, nothing. And not only that, status quo, the status quo is what other Republican governors, y'all controlled Arkansas forever and control it now. You've always been the status quo. It's not like you replaced some progressive liberal administration. And by the way, as I say, these terms no longer even apply. I just don't think there's Democrat, Republican, and I just don't think the contracts, progressive, liberal, conservative, I just think it's all BS at this point.

At this point, you got pro-democracy, normalcy, and competency, and then you've got MAGA Republicanism, which is Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and I just think the American people need to recognize that's just where we are at right now.
