The Jesus: Unavailable for comment

An Elkins woman is out on bail after she allegedly tried to hire another woman to kill her ex-husband. Police say she offered the woman money and goods, including a guitar and Winnebago, as payment for the deed. KFSM Channel 5 reports.

Teri Lea Baber bonded out of jail late last week after being arrested on suspicion of solicitation of murder. The woman who police say Baber tried to hire informed the authorities, providing them with a taped telephone conversation in which Baber suggested that the woman meet her ex-husband at a bowling alley in Fayetteville after his league bowling night, slip LSD into his drink, and then either shoot him or convince him to shoot himself.

Today in Trump: Obstruction of justice anyone?

It's the New York Times with the news today. Fired FBI Director James Comey kept notes of his talks with Donald Trump. A memo he wrote in February after a meeting with Trump said the president asked him to shut down the investigation into Michael Flynn, his former national security adviser.

Another Republican miracle-working governor

Great piece in Washington Post on the budget crisis in Louisiana. Big tax cuts and corporate welfare will do that to a state, particularly to a state whose previous governor, Republican Bobby Jindal, refused to join the Obamacare-funded Medicaid expansion. There's a lesson there for Arkansas.
