The head of NBC doesn't cut into my programming crabbing about money...so there's that.
Oklahoma is going backwards

Thanks for being a critical thinker. Admittedly, my only source is from a rather obscure Republican woman, Leisa Mitchell Haynes, who is running for governor of Oklahoma. She talked of a shortage of highway patrol troopers during her speech before a meeting of Payne County Republicans over a month ago. I can no longer find a recording of that meeting, which I had originally found of the FB page of the Chairman of Payne County Republicans. She also said the Oklahoma panhandle may not even have any highway patrol troopers.
Elsewhere, she has said God told her in third grade that she would be a governor. For now, God sent an angel to her last August to say, "Now is the time. Write your plan and get ready". It will be interesting to see if this person who is hearing things comes in last place in the 2026 primary.

Seems like a solid and reliable source.

That's is just one of a bunch of other things he wants to repeal. But no doubt, Logan will easily win since this is a general election in a very rural district. His only other opponents are a Democrat and an independent. It will be interesting to see how huge his margin of victory will be. Logan had beat 5 other Republicans.
To make it less easy for extremists to win, that proposed state question needs to pass that puts everybody on a single ballot for each race in the primary. Either that or change party registration, if needed, to Republican to vote for the one who's least extremist in the primary.

So, you're guilty of being woke if you care about arts, culture, education, animal wellbeing, environmental conservation, and historic preservation. Those issues of the Kirkpatrick Foundation collide with many anti-woke Oklahomans who think it's far more important to focus on being pro-God, pro-Gun, anti-Gay and anti-Abortion.

With little surprise, Logan won by 62% of the vote.

Oklahoma is cutting its way to poverty. Business, industry scouts will turn away. | Opinion
It's insanely immoral to cut Career Tech by $16 million with inflation going on and Oklahoma's population going up instead of down. The governor wanted things to be flat. This isn't being flat.
To keep making Oklahoma attractive to low pay employers, it will be interesting to see how hard Republicans will work to defeat the state question in June 2026 to raise the minimum wage.

He could be gay himself and being a church pastor speaking hatefully against gays is his mentally sick and disgusting way of living with it. If true, he probably verbally bullied guys while in school who he was sexually attracted to, such as telling them that their faces were ugly. So, this pastor could be one of the biggest closet cases in Oklahoma City. Every town has them. I shockingly heard that one of them as a little boy was known to pull a buggy with a doll in it up and down the street he lived on. So now I wonder if that pastor played with dolls as a little kid. Fortunately, not every little boy who plays with dolls goes on to be widely known to hate all the gays in the world as an adult.

Big brands are staying quiet this Pride Month
KOCO
…
Companies are treading lightly, avoiding prominent campaigns and visible public support. Thirty-nine percent say they plan to scale back public Pride Month engagements this year, according to a survey of more than 200 corporate executives by Gravity Research, a risk management advisory. That includes sponsoring Pride events, posting supportive messages of LGBTQ rights on social media and selling Pride-themed merchandise.
Consumer brands are wary of provoking right-wing customers and activists, and they fear reprisals from President Donald Trump’s administration. Federal agencies have threatened to investigate companies with diversity, equity and inclusion programs.
