Oklahomans are an honest, straightforward, hardworking people, but our court system is deeply corrupt. Politicians come and go, but Courts run the horror show and the “reform” enacted in 1967 made it much worse. The Oklahoma judiciary leans so hard left that some law professors warn students that they will never make a living in law, if registered Republican or thought to be honestly conservative.

By the Grace of God, some lawyers “fight the good fight” regardless.

The Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Education and Executive Officer of the Oklahoma State Department of Education, Ryan Walters, today released a letter he sent to Vice President Kamala Harris dated yesterday, October 29. Walters demands reimbursement for the costs incurred by the state for illegal immigration. The estimate of Harris’ failure to stop criminal invasion over America’s borders is estimated to be a burden on Oklahoman taxpayers of $474,900,000.00 (four hundred seventy-four million, nine hundred thousand dollars) the estimate to date and growing.

Walters places this financial obligation squarely on the federal government writing in a release with the letter, “Kamala Harris’ Fiasco at the border has led directly to an enormous financial burden on all Americans, especially Oklahomans.

Shortly after his appointment as executive director of the Oklahoma Department of Corrections (DOC), Steven Harpe recognized that a critical voice was absent from decision-making – the voice of over 21,000 incarcerated individuals in Oklahoma’s correctional facilities. To make meaningful improvements in facility conditions and support rehabilitation, Harpe established the Office of Offender Advocacy, appointing Nicole Flemming as chief to bring inmates’ perspectives directly to him the DOC announced in a release today.

Flemming, a long-time ODOC employee and former administrator of the Community Outreach Unit, which serves as a liaison between inmates’ families and the agency while also advocating for crime victims, took on the mission of gathering feedback from the inmate population. She began by attending inmate council meetings to hear directly from inmate representatives elected by their peers. However, to fully understand the population’s perspectives, she initiated a direct survey of the entire inmate population. This inaugural survey, conducted in November 2023, is believed to be the first of its kind nationwide.
