Dear Legislators, Oppose SJR20

By David Arnett, Publisher

In a public release early this morning, more than 30 organizations and individuals, representing thousands of conservative Oklahomans, politely request legislators to oppose SJR20, the proposed joint resolution that seeks to disapprove the newly adopted science and social studies standards.

The letter notes that “three State Board members were replaced just days before the final vote, disrupting a nearly year-long process. Now, some individuals are using that disruption as cover to try to reverse the results, results that reflect the will of the people. This is not about flawed standards; it is about political interference and media manipulation.

Oklahoma Strong

By Markwayne Mullin, U.S. Senator

Oklahoma City, OK – 30 years ago today, tragedy struck our community, and 168 beloved Oklahomans were lost in the worst act of homegrown terrorism in our nation’s history. My family and I join with Oklahomans across the state in remembering the innocent lives we lost to the Oklahoma City bombing and the loved ones left behind on that horrible day.

America Loves Trade Fairness

By David Arnett

Analysis: Republican President Donald J. Trump’s popularity has increased after his announcement of reciprocal tariffs worldwide on nations that have been ripping off America for decades. Fairness was found, in an exclusive DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners survey (over 1,000 registered voters conducted from March 31 to April 3), to ring up the Trump Administration’s popularity to “53 percent, a 4-point increase over last week when it was 49 percent.” But don’t tell Tulsa’s Leftist protestors.

It is striking that both young people and people of color are tired of playing the patsies to a greedy China, India, and European Union among others. The survey found Trump’s popularity “up by 13 points since March 7 among those aged 18 to 29” and “support among black voters skyrocketed 17 points since last week.”

Applauding Gov. Stitt’s Call for DOGE

By Mike Mazzei

Editorial: I applaud Governor Stitt’s call to start an Oklahoma Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) in Oklahoma. It’s time to root out unnecessary and sloppy spending programs that have infected our state budget like a nasty virus. We must take the opportunity to eliminate support for wasteful green energy projects and reduce government appropriations to non-core services.  

The groundwork for DOGE has already been laid, and we have the tools we need to finish the job.
