Some atheists have waged war against the Ten Commandments in recent decades, forcing monuments off public property wherever they find them. One famous case involved Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore, who placed a monument of the Ten Commandments in the judicial building rotunda in Montgomery, the state capitol. This caused no small controversy. After a lengthy legal battle, the monument was removed from the rotunda and Roy Moore was removed from his judgeship. In another famous incident, a monument displaying the Ten Commandments at the Arkansas State Capitol was destroyed by a man who deliberately crashed his car into it less than 24 hours after it had been erected. The same individual destroyed another display by the same method a year earlier in Oklahoma, but was this only an act of one crazed man? As reported by the Associated Press: The Oklahoma Supreme Court ordered the removal of a Ten Commandments display from its Capitol in 2015, and the state's voters in 2016 rejected an initiative aimed at allowing the monument to return. (“Arkansas replaces Ten Commandments monument at state Capitol,” Times Record, April 26, 2018). Some professing Christians are rightfully angered by the assault against this God-given code of law, yet surprisingly, the greatest enemy to the commandments is not atheists. I'll show you who that enemy is, and it may surprise you! Stay tuned!

Dennis Murphy looks the part of a upstanding politician meandering the marble laden halls of the Arkansas State Capitol building, where this Dateline murder investigation sets it's scene. This episode revolves around the surprising murder of a former state senator by an alligator dressed as a congressman that had been transported over the Arkansas state lines by Ivanka and Justin Bieber. No? Well maybe this is a bit far fetched, but because the victim was in the political sphere the theories in this case flew fast and loose. Even when the true motive behind the murder is much more simple, senseless and sinister. Kimberly and Katie take a break from creating their Daily Dennisisms flip calendar to caucus on the crime at hand and special delegate Joni weighs in with her feelings on the issues. Oh say can't you see this is going to be a great episode? Please enjoy this very special installment of A DATE WITH DATELINE: Checks and Balances or Chelsea's Revenge. Official Description from NBCU: When a former Arkansas State Senator is found fatally stabbed, investigators must determine if her murder is connected to her political career or her personal life.

A lot happened under the dome of the Arkansas State Capitol this year amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Michelle Kitchens, ACHI government relations director and fellow wonk, gives an overview of this year's unique legislative session — one conducted in the middle of a public health emergency with a lot of energy devoted to that issue. Kitchens also shares what surprised her this year and what to expect during the upcoming special session, which is expected to begin Dec. 7.

To follow along with the pieces discussed in this episode, visit www. vlcox.comV. L. Cox is a professional artist of 29 years whose recent work has been highly active in projects that involve Human Rights and Equality. In 2015 she launched her National ‘End Hate’ project, an anti-discrimination series based on segregation era doors in response to HB1228, a dangerous Religious Freedom Bill in Arkansas which originated under Gov. Mike Pence in Indiana. This powerful series employs authentic and found objects that create a visceral presentation commenting on raw emotions and relevant human rights issues that continue to be important topics in the 21st century. The doors were placed twice on the steps of the Arkansas State Capitol then twice at the base of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. The response was overwhelming. Images of the door installation went viral and were seen on Yahoo News, USA Today, in numerous newspapers across the country and as far away as India and South Korea.The ‘End Hate’ project which has now grown to over 53 pieces, is beginning its fifth year of a nationwide tour. It has opened at prominent locations such as The LGBT Center in New York, NY, The Virginia Longwood Center for the Visual Arts Museum in collaboration with the Moton Museum where the Vice Presidential debates were held, the Rosa Parks Museum in Montgomery, Alabama coinciding with the Equal Justice Initiative, National Memorial for Peace and Justice opening, and the Virginia Holocaust Museum in Richmond, Virginia. It opened on September 27, 2019 at the Delta Cultural Center in Helena, Arkansas to commemorate the 100 Year Anniversary of the Elaine Massacre.Cox understands how to draw the viewer into her work through her experience with working with large installations and audiences.

On Tuesday, March 12, more than 100 Arkansas Farm Bureau member farmers and ranchers visited the Arkansas State Capitol to share their concerns with legislators and to attend the signing of proclamations declaring March 10-16 as Arkansas Agriculture Week and March 12 as Farmers' Day. Hear from some of those who attended in this edition of Arkansas AgCast.

On August 16th, 2018 a giant-ass bronze statue of a goatman was unveiled on the steps of the Arkansas State Capitol so it's the perfect time to grill up some meats and get METAL.

MAJOR ALERT!! ILLUMINATI EXPOSED! On the afternoon of Thurs, Aug. 16th, 2018, dozens attended a rally held by the Satanic Temple at the Arkansas State Capitol, Little Rock. This rally came shortly after the Arkansas legislature approved the placement of a Ten Commandments monument on the Capitol grounds. And during the rally, a more than 8-feet-tall Baphomet statue was unveiled. Interestingly enough, The Ten Commandments monument that was installed quietly in 2017 was then run over by someone who drove their car into the monument, less than 24 hours after installation — smashing it into pieces. The same one also destroyed a Ten Commandments monument outside of Oklahoma’s State Capitol. About 150 people total attended the rally, which had a substantial police presence. If that wasn't bad enough, there was also the Satanic statue that was unveiled in Detroit back in the summer of 2015, along with the nation's first ever "satanic ceremony" performed in Lansing, Michigan: December 2015. But is this a surprise or a coincidence, considering how this rally and the unveiling of this statue also coincided with the supposed “death” of Aretha Franklin, who is said to be the “Queen of Soul?” Franklin reportedly died at the age of 76, and is noted for gospel-rooted songs and bluesy rhythm. Could all this be another Illuminati ritual and sign, letting us know that America, along with the world, have COMPLETELY turned their backs on the “Gospel,” and are now blatantly awaiting their New World Order, One World Government? Could the unveiling of this satanic statue also be another step closer to the unveiling of the false messiah and even more end-time deceptions to come? THE TRUTH REVEALED!!! AMERICA IS ABOUT TO BE JUDGED! THEY ARE LITERALLY PUTTING IT IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE AND TELLING YOU WHO THEY SERVE!! THEREFORE CHOOSE YE THIS DAY WHOM YOU WILL SERVE!! PLEASE SEEK YAHUAH AND HIS TRUE SON YAHUSHA — AND NO LONGER SERVE THE BAALS AND THE FALSE IDOLS THAT ARE EMBEDDED IN RELIGION, AND BE DECEIVED NO MORE!

A controversial Ten Commandments monument was put on display this week at the Arkansas State Capitol, but less than 24 hours later it was destroyed. We'll have an in-depth discussion about what happened to the monument.

A controversial Ten Commandments monument was put on display this week at the Arkansas State Capitol, but less than 24 hours later it was destroyed. We'll have an in-depth discussion about what happened to the monument. Also this week we talk about Governor Hutchinson calling for changes to the healthcare bill that for now is stalled in the U.S. Senate. Lately there hasn't been much comment on the topic from Arkansas’s two senators. And we'll look at the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling siding with same-sex couples from Arkansas who wanted the names of both spouses included on the birth certificates of children born through in vitro fertilization.
