TULSA, Okla. – Six Texas men have been indicted and detained for trial for their involvement in an interstate robbery conspiracy. The scheme, part of which was captured on a home video security system, allegedly involved kicking in a door at a residence in Broken Arrow, wearing masks, carrying a firearm, striking an occupant of the home, and stealing approximately 70 pounds of illegal marijuana.
Governor Stitt Tuesday took action to comply with the Oklahoma Constitution and send to a vote of the people of Oklahoma whether the legislature shall call a constitutional convention, as required by Article XXIV, Section 2 of the Oklahoma Constitution. This is a remarkable and praiseworthy proclamation.
Article XXIV, Section 2 requires that the people of Oklahoma be given the opportunity at least once every twenty years to decide whether or not to move forward with a constitutional convention. The question was last presented to Oklahomans in 1970, depriving Oklahomans of this constitutional right.
Oklahoma State Auditor & Inspector (SA&I) Cindy Byrd Monday released the Federal Single Audit for FY 2024. This annual audit is a federally-mandated examination of whether the State of Oklahoma spent federal grant money in compliance with federal regulations.
The audit report covers roughly $14 Billion of expenditures which are audited based upon a formula provided by the federal government.
“This is the fourth Single Audit in a row in which we have warned lawmakers and agency directors about the consequences of mishandling federal money,” Auditor Byrd said. “While the amount in questioned costs has decreased from the previous year, Oklahoma still has improvements to make to ensure good financial management. The debt is piling up and Oklahoma taxpayers could be forced to refund millions of dollars to the federal government.”
When Associate Justice to the Supreme Court Clarence Thomas first encountered Thomas Sowell’s work as a young law student, he rejected it.
Years later, at a pivotal moment in his life, he picked up Race and Economics. This time, the argument inside it quietly rearranges everything he thought he knew. Justice Thomas describes it as finding “water in the desert.”
That discovery would change the course of his thinking and begin a friendship with Sowell that lasted more than four-decades.
