Remember how the legislature gerrymandered OKC so badly that parts of Tulsa & OKC are now in the same district? It's because the GOP is afraid of OKC's voters. They know how many of us are eager to support a democrat; so they gerrymandered OKC to deny us even the chance to elect one.

It's late October, I want brisk evening air to help me get into the Halloween season mood. Instead Oklahoma's weather has decided to give us a second summer.

Nathan Dahm is truly one of the dumbest people to ever get elected to office in the state of Oklahoma (and the bar is set very, very high!).

If he had any brains he might be bothered by his hypocrisy but luckily for him that's something he's never had to worry about.

To conservatives freedom is when your child's school budget gets looted in order to give handouts to wealthy private schools.

Tyranny is when conservatives are forced to recognize that people of all races, religions, and sexual orientations deserve to be treated fairly.

In Oklahoma the governor gets to appoint a new judge in the event that the voters decide to not retain the current judge.

Do you want Kevin Stitt to be able to appoint even more far-right judges to Oklahoma's courts?

Learning about another terrible thing the late James Inhofe did during his long career in the Senate:

Inhofe praised a soldier who committed a war crime; when LTC West carried out a mock execution on a detainee Inhofe gave a speech calling for West to receive a commendation.

See also, places like Oklahoma City—a purple city in a red state—where democrats are entirely capable of winning county or municipal elections but candidates starve for funding because the national party writes off the entire state as hopeless and not worth fighting for.

It's very telling that when left-leaning accounts want to confront people they dislike what they're saying is that they should be heckled in public. But when LibsokfTiktok thinks of confronting people she can only interpret that as "commit murder."

Chaya Raichick's public profile is entirely built around constructing campaigns of harassment to intimidate and silence anyone who expresses a gender identity or political outlook which makes her uncomfortable.
February 20, 2024 at 10:39 PM
Not content with having gotten a child killed, LibsofTikTok is now marshaling her army of hate which she keeps on a leash to unleash a torrent of bile and death threats on the local journalist who reported on this student who suffered a fatal head injury in the bathroom of their high school.

The 1930s pastors who extolled Adolf Hitler as an emissary from God are indistinguishable from the sort of preaching that Jackson Lahmeyer and several hundred other conservative pastors launch into every Sunday.

In the days following 1/6 Sheriff West told the press he drove his truck to D.C. rather than fly. We now have court documents showing that other 1/6 insurrectionists drove to the Capitol so they could bring weapons with them that would have been forbidden had they traveled by air.

But they told me Cindy Byrd was one of the good Republicans.

I guess even good Republicans are happy to endorse a man who has announced his intent to be an American dictator.

Time to reset the counter

Lmao, imagine being a governor and tweeting a picture shaking hands with George W. Bush a man hated by both liberals and conservatives for lying about WMD and creating the decade long disastrous invasion of Iraq.
October 9, 2023 at 9:49 PM
Lmao, Ryan Walters publishing a press release denouncing terrorism just weeks after he told the world that Liboftiktok was his BFF just days after a Tulsa elementary school suffered six consecutive days of bomb threats from LibsofTiktok's audience.

OSDE continuing to violate the First Amendment by using public money to fund religious education. This is going to cost the state of Oklahoma a lot of money in lawsuits.

Why do so many American think that Iran is located in Oklahoma?

And if you're an elected Republican who oversees Oklahoma's public school system and who is angling to climb through the ranks of conservative politics this lady who reliably makes schools into victims of a series of bomb threats is your best friend
October 6, 2023 at 9:21 PM
Chaya Raichik delights in fomenting threats of terrorism against her targets—often school teachers and librarians—and that's precisely the thing that Ryan Walters, our elected State Superintendent, loves most about her.
October 6, 2023 at 8:25 PM
Ryan Walters is objectively pro-terrorism; Ellen Ochoa Elementary in Tulsa was tormented with half a dozen bomb threats when LibsofTiktok targeted the school. It's intolerable that Walters supports Raichik when she makes children live in fear of their schools getting bombed.

Stephanie Bice now taking her turn to display her fealty to the incumbent Republican leadership.

Tom Cole: *suggesting we need Democrats to support Republicans because the GOP Speaker can't get enough support within his own party*

Me: lol, lmao

Showing the world that OKC is a Big League City by making the first that thing visitors see as they leave the airport be an ugly, overcrowded jail.

The number of children dying from guns has gone up 50% since 2019.

In 2019 Governor Stitt signed a bill which removed the requirement for any sort of licensing or training before purchasing a gun; several other states have enacted similar bills.
