Wallet Watching D.C. – Not Having It

Oklahomans have been hurt by many financial uncertainties throughout the last four years. Rampant inflation has drained families’ savings accounts and forced folks across the state to make tough decisions about how to pay for rent, afford groceries, or save for retirement. President Trump has taken steps to alleviate these pains, and Congressional Republicans are working hard to pass the president’s One Big Beautiful Bill.

Though this bill includes plenty of President Trump’s campaign promises, there is more that Republicans can do to put money back in the wallets of Oklahomans today to fix a broken tax code that favors certain savings accounts over others, and would end the era of surprise mutual fund tax bills.

Vindication For The Unvaccinated?

Truth Is Not Readily Confessed

Author David Marks comes via Robert W. Malone MD, MS with a request to share his recent essay (found on his Substack here). As Tulsa continues to grow as a regional medical center this essay touches on deep truths concerning the lingering effects of the COVID crisis and associated propaganda, on relationships.

At a recent family gathering, I sat at the dinner table with a group of loved ones for the first time since the COVID-19 fiasco. Most of the cheerful discussion focused on the spectacular event of the week; my mother’s 100th birthday.

I was the only person at the table who hadn’t had any form of flu for many years, while all of the guests had been ill to one degree or another. Almost everyone had tested positive for COVID at least once over the last few years with accompanying flu symptoms. Although no one in my family was hospitalized or died during the so-called pandemic, they all had been vaccinated repeatedly. As far as I know, my wife and I were the only ones in our families who didn’t get any COVID shot and I haven’t been inoculated for anything in the last seventy years.

Expert says Golden Dome “No-Brainer”

The construction of the proposed Golden Dome missile defense shield — a strategic defense system that would neutralize ballistic missiles in space — is a “no-brainer” for William R. Forstchen, Ph.D. Forstchen is a world-renowned expert on electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapons, which he considers the single greatest threat to the United States.

A nuclear electromagnetic pulse (“Nuclear EMP”) is a burst of electromagnetic radiation created by a nuclear explosion. The resulting rapidly varying electric and magnetic fields may couple with electrical and electronic systems to produce damaging current and voltage surges.

Citing the country’s already vulnerable energy grid, Forstchen said an EMP attack would wipe out power and set off a cascade of deadly events. The first necessity people would lose is water, followed by food supply and medication. Then, disease would set in. Long-term survival, he added, would depend on being in the right place at the right time with the right food supply.

Rural Healthcare Concerns

Out here in rural Oklahoma, things aren’t always close by. The grocery store, the doctor’s office, even the pharmacy — it can take a while to get where you need to go. That’s just life outside the city. But when it comes to healthcare, distance can become dangerous. 

That’s why I’m speaking up for Medicare Advantage. For me, it’s not just a health plan. It’s how I stay connected to the care I need — and I’m not alone. More than 330,000 Oklahomans rely on Medicare Advantage for coverage that actually fits our lives.

No Need for College Tuition Increases

Updated: This year, legislators provided more than $1 billion in appropriations to Oklahoma colleges and universities. That negates any need for tuition increases. The question is whether university leaders will admit it. To that point, as of this writing, NOT happening at the University of Oklahoma, but the OSU/A&M Board of Regents today voted to keep tuition and mandatory academic fees flat for a fourth consecutive year at Oklahoma State University.

College leaders don’t always have a good track record of prioritizing affordability.
