The Senate needs to confirm Justice Hiland as quickly as possible.
BREAKING: REPUBLICAN Sen. Boozman's refusal to support Lee Rudofsky to the 8th Circuit has tanked his nomination by the Trump admin, a source tells me. Trump will go with the senator's preferred choice, AR Justice Cody Hiland.
Rudofsky has issued a statement:
"I will be forever grateful to President Trump for the honor of his nomination. But under our Constitution—which I believe is the most ingenious document in the history of the world—the President’s nomination must be confirmed by the Senate. And the reality is that, without the support of my home-state Senators, confirmation is simply not a practical possibility in today’s Senate. So I understand completely the President’s decision to withdraw my nomination. Cody Hiland is a solid jurist and a good friend. I look forward to working with him in the federal judiciary.”
I have no insider information on this confirmation process. But it would be a shame for Arkansans (and the broader Eighth Circuit) to miss out on this stellar nominee for this important seat.
Hard to believe this is true, especially from Senator Cotton who has established such clarity on rule of law and public safety issues. Judge Rudofsky will be an immediate asset on the bench, and will fill the highly respected Judge Shepherd's shoes. Now is not the time for delay

My impression so far comparing the @NousResearch beta iOS app and @claudeai Duet:
1. The Hermes app is insanely good. It's intuitive to use on a level I would never have expected.
2. Duet so far just seems like a worse version of the Claude app. Who is this for?
An outstanding pick, in my very biased opinion.

Today is the first day of early voting, and I encourage every Arkansan to get out and vote for Justice Nick Bronni.
As Attorney General, I hired @BronniForAR as Solicitor General because of his brilliant legal mind and commitment to upholding our Constitution and the rule of law. Governor @SarahHuckabee made the right choice appointing him to the Court, and now Arkansans need to vote to keep Justice Bronni on the Court.

I could not more strongly agree with this message from Lieutenant Governor Rutledge (and shared by Senator Cotton). Justice Bronni is fairminded, even-handed, and understands the role of judges is to apply the law. What a benefit to the great people of Arkansas!

Arkansas, early voting starts Tuesday, February 17. Please help us get the word out to vote for Justice Nick Bronni! Please SHARE this video to show your support.
Justice Bronni is the ONLY constitutional conservative in the race and the only candidate with judicial experience!
My grandfather's then-girlfriend, later-wife, was the petitioner in Wilson v. Arkansas, 514 US 927 (1995), the case which incorporated the common law "knock and announce" rule into the Fourth Amendment's reasonableness inquiry.

Today I announced I will be running for a full term on the Arkansas Supreme Court in 2026! As a justice, I call balls & strikes. I decide cases based on the law -- not my personal views. And you can expect me to continue serving with integrity, fairness, and impartiality. #arpx

Congratulations to my Solicitor General, Nick Bronni, on his appointment to the Arkansas Supreme Court. It is obvious to anyone who has observed Nick’s work that he is one of the best legal minds in Arkansas and is indisputably a national-caliber talent as evidenced by his two successful arguments before the United States Supreme Court. I know he will serve the people of Arkansas well on our state’s highest court. tinyurl.com/4yf4d2a9 #arnews

I was devastated to learn that my dear friend and colleague Chief Deputy Attorney General Bob R. Brooks, Jr. passed away earlier today. Bob and I were the best of friends for decades, and he was like a member of my family. My children called him Uncle Bob, and his frequent visits were a joy to all.
As my Chief Deputy, he was unrivaled in his intellect, strength of character, work ethic and love for Arkansans, our Office and the dozens of staff he led and managed. He was indispensable, and I miss him already.
The outpouring of love for Bob from within the Office and around the nation has been overwhelming and heartwarming.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his family, friends and colleagues.

For anyone interested in appellate and constitutional law, our office is hiring an Assistant Solicitor General. #appellatetwitter
