State Rep. Austin McCollum, a four-term Republican lawmaker who appears to be the only official candidate in an upcoming election for Benton County judge, is in jail today on charges of domestic battery. So that's probably going to be a problem for him. The 35-year-old who's enjoyed endorsements and attaboys from Gov.

President Donald Trump went on a posting spree on Truth Social on Saturday, sharing AI-generated images of him doing everything from arresting extraterrestrials to kissing a statue of Jesus Christ. Trump went on Truth Social on Saturday to insist the United States is winning the Iran war and lash out at Jeannine Pirro after the U.S. Attorney in Washington D.C. dropped criminal charges against an Olympian accused of vandalizing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.
