“I think the process just wasn’t as clean as it should have been. Again, it’s been reimbursed by private funds. Nothing was paid for by taxpayers, and that was the error on the front end,” Sanders said.

According to the governor’s office, the Republican Party of Arkansas reimbursed the state for all costs associated with the expense…

In a letter sent to Sen. Hickey, Rogers-based attorney Tom Mars accused the governor’s office of altering non-exempt FOIA documents, withholding other documents, and removing parts of emails related to public records requests.

Sanders told 40/29 News there’s no truth to the allegations and that she does not think it’s necessary to launch an internal investigation.

    The news to me here was that Sanders is now governor of Arkansas. The rest is rather expected.

      Yeah, Arkansas has committed to MAGA for the time being. I’m hoping this could end things for her.

        Arkansans have forgotten how her father proudly toted the triple wide they lived in while the governor’s mansion underwent renovations. And how the only presidential museum they boast is a trailer on stilts. 🙃
