Incoming, hopefully in the correct order. Otherwise, just look for the salutations.
This is Oklahoma REPUBLICANS calling for State Superintendent of Schools and Certified Weirdo Ryan Walters to be impeached.
OKLAHOMA, y'all! ๐ฒ
Great news!
Toby Morton had created a website for him to share how horrible he is.
@Cosmichomicide what i find surprising is that he was a teacher. a teacher! wtf y'all.
@singlemaltgirl its shocking, but they exist. Rarely fortunately, but they are there. Everyone in the school knows who they are (esp students) @Cosmichomicide
@LaurelGreen he was teacher of the year, tho.
& i agree, i'm not used to seeing teachers like this. i hope they are really really rare.
@singlemaltgirl @Cosmichomicide TOY? That IS disturbing!
We had one in my school the last few years. Kids knew, would come complain to me. When Trump was impeached I had a half dozen kids asking me at different times to print out sheets of peaches (i have color printer cuz what I teach). They cut them out and covered the hall with taped peaches. ๐คฃ The kids r alright
@LaurelGreen ๐ ๐ ๐ @Cosmichomicide
The more rural the school, the more likely it is.
He went to and taught at McAlester HS, town population 18K. Which includes the local industry population - the OK state prison.
He got his degree at Harding College which is a Church of Christ affiliated religious school in Arkansas.
Not all that surprising, though usually they are unmasked before they have a multi billion dollar budget.
@Cosmichomicide @singlemaltgirl The one at my school (he left at the end of last year) was a young white guy. Heโd blast christian music in the parking lot and his classroom. My school is 100% black and brown. Teachers HATED him.
Honestly, "Church of Christ" PK kind of encapsulates it all. Imagine, if you will, a church with no instruments except a pitch pipe which, unironically, believes the Bible is inerrant despite all those instruments. ๐ฌ
So, Mr. Cosmic (musician) and I attended a memorial service at the local CoC. The "choir" proceeded to do something in a variety of pitches with inaudible lyrics and Mr. Cosmic said, "I don't know what the hell that is, but it's definitely not a joyful noise."

@Cosmichomicide that Walters is an absolute scumbag
Indeed he is. I have an old friend who is originally from Tulsa and just mentioning him is enough to get that scary vein throbbing in the temple.
@Cosmichomicide Oklahoma is interesting to watch. Decidedly red territory and yet much of what is going on there seems very disruptive to the direction republicans want to go.
Walters is a CRT, book banning, Moms for Liberty & PragerU Loon famous for saying that the Tulsa Race Massacre shouldn't be "tied to skin color".
Oh, and this:
"January 2024, Walters appointed the Libs of TikTok account owner Chaya Raichik to a statewide library advisory board."
Change is in the air. ๐พ
