Waiting for a comet

[Okie_Rancher @Okie_Rancher]

Reasons to vote for Drummond: You’re wealthy, you know him, and you know he’s good for a pardon or two when you commit that felony embezzlement or abuse of position scheme you’re planning. See O’Donnell scandal.

Reasons to vote for Mazzei: You need a politician who works without the constraints of ethics or principle; pay him enough and he’ll flip over and over for you like a bass that just hit the boat deck. See electoral scandal, smelter scandal.

Reasons to vote for McCall: You’re big Ag and big oil and you want someone slick, conniving, and smart enough to disenfranchise every voter AND legislator so the only people you have to pay off are committee chairs, the speaker, and the governor… right now he’s 2 for three, only one to go. See house rules scandal.

Reasons to vote for Keating: You want to put certain people in certain places regardless of their lack of qualifications. Get close enough to him, he’ll help your people pass any government “test” then fire anyone who wants to investigate. See the OHP scandal.

Reasons to vote for Jake Merrick. You have a soul and don’t care about the masses telling you it’s all about “least of evils.” You want a principled regular Oklahoman who has lived check to check, faced and overcome struggles, who engages with real Oklahomans not just the wealthy in controlled environments, and who isn’t directly feeding the DC swamp with monthly checks and also isn’t spending millions to buy the governor’s chair.

I've wasted my vote on the Party's candidates for the past 30-40 years. It hasn't seemed to help very much. This year I'm wasting it on Jake Merrick. Please join me in wasting your vote, too.

How Conservative is Jake Merrick?

Jake Merrick is gaining popularity in the Oklahoma Governor 2026 Republican primary, especially among Christian conservative and America First voters looking for a candidate focused on principle over politics.

🔹 Background
Merrick is a former Oklahoma State Senator for District 22 (2021–2022). He is a seminary graduate with a Master of Divinity, former pastor, college professor, business owner, radio host, and adoptive father. His campaign centers heavily on faith, family, and Christian conservative values.

🔹 Strong America First / Conservative Positions
Merrick stands out as one of the strongest social conservatives in the race:

• Abortion: Self-described abortion abolitionist supporting a total abortion ban from conception with no exceptions.

• Social Issues: Authored legislation restricting transgender students from opposite-sex school restrooms and blocking vaccine mandates from state agencies. Strong supporter of parental rights, homeschooling, religious liberty, and traditional family values.

• Second Amendment: Supports expanding gun rights and takes a strong constitutionalist position on firearms.

• Limited Government / America First: Advocates reducing bureaucracy, cutting taxes and spending, ending foreign ownership of Oklahoma land, protecting private property rights, and limiting lobbyist influence. His campaign is heavily grassroots-driven.

• Energy & Economy: Strong supporter of oil, gas, agriculture, and “Oklahoma First” economic policies.

🔹 Record & Controversies
Merrick’s legislative tenure was short but largely consistent with his platform.

• Lost 2022 Re-Election: Defeated in the Republican primary after opposing a major school voucher/school choice bill he argued was influenced by special interests. Supporters viewed the move as principled; critics saw it as anti-reform.

• Minor Optics Controversy: Merrick once won a raffle for a cosmetic laser resurfacing procedure during a campaign-related event. He reportedly never used it, and no ethics violations or misuse of funds were alleged.

No major corruption allegations or personal scandals have surfaced publicly regarding Merrick.

🔹 Overall Assessment

Strengths:
• Strong on life issues, Christian values, parental rights, and cultural conservatism.
• Anti-establishment messaging resonates with grassroots conservatives.
• Authentic faith-based background appeals strongly to evangelical voters.
• Consistent ideological positions.

Potential Weaknesses:
• Limited legislative experience and loss in his only re-election bid raise electability questions.
• Some positions, particularly abortion with zero exceptions, may be viewed as politically difficult statewide.
• Lower fundraising and name recognition compared to larger candidates like Drummond and McCall.

Bottom line: Jake Merrick represents the Christian conservative and America First wing of the Oklahoma GOP. Supporters see him as authentic and uncompromising on core principles, while critics question whether his approach can win statewide in 2026.

What do you think? Is Jake Merrick the grassroots conservative Oklahoma Republicans are looking for?

Jon Echols & the Polston Case: Why This Matters for Attorney General

As a candidate for Oklahoma Attorney General — the state’s top law enforcement officer and the People’s Lawyer — Jon Echols’ connections to political favoritism deserve a close look.

In 2023, Sara Polston (wife of politically connected Norman attorney Rod Polston) was convicted of aggravated DUI after a horrific crash that nearly killed 20-year-old Micaela Borrego. She received an 8-year prison sentence but served only 73 days before early release to GPS monitoring — with the victim’s family never notified.

During her time in Cleveland County Jail, Sara and Rod Polston made recorded jail phone calls discussing their powerful connections. Rod Polston specifically named Jon Echols:

“I’ve got Jon Echols too… so and he’s gonna be the next Attorney General and what have you… he’s got connections as well that he can help out if we need it.”

The multicounty grand jury report (released May 2026) described the overall situation as “rank political favoritism” but found no evidence that Echols played any active role in Sara Polston’s early release.

However, here’s what happened next:

• The Polstons donated thousands to Echols’ AG campaign (Sara: $3,300; Rod: ~$3,500).
• Echols kept the donations until the grand jury report became public.
• He only refunded the money after the scandal exploded.

This is exactly why the Attorney General position is so powerful — and so dangerous in the wrong hands. The AG can choose to investigate (or not), prosecute (or drop cases), defend the state aggressively (or settle quietly), and influence outcomes for friends, donors, and insiders.

Echols has deep roots in the Oklahoma political system as a longtime legislator and business owner (Turn Key Health, which held the medical contract at the very jail where these calls were made). These recorded calls show how some insiders already view him: as someone with the connections and future power to “help out.”

Oklahomans deserve an Attorney General who works for the people — not one who makes connected donors and friends think they have a direct line to special treatment.

This isn’t about guilt. It’s about optics, access, and whether this is the kind of “good old boy” culture we want in the AG’s office.

Transparency and independence matter. Voters should ask: Will the next AG help the powerful when they need it… or will he protect everyday Oklahomans?

🚨 Oklahoma taxpayers — this is where your COVID relief dollars actually went.

Oklahoma received billions in federal COVID relief funds to help families stay housed during the pandemic. The Emergency Rental Assistance Program was supposed to get money directly to struggling Oklahomans for rent and utilities.

Instead?

The Office of Management and Enterprise Services (OMES), under Governor Kevin Stitt, handed a no-bid contract to the Communities Foundation of Oklahoma (CFOK) to run the program.

Here’s what State Auditor Cindy Byrd’s Federal Single Audit for FY 2023 uncovered:

• $21.8 MILLION in questioned costs at OMES alone, mostly tied to undocumented “management fees” paid to the nonprofit
• No receipts
• No invoices
• No documentation justifying where the money went
• Fees funded high-paying management salaries and administrative overhead instead of direct rental help
• An estimated 7,659 qualified Oklahomans were denied assistance they needed

Now taxpayers could be forced to repay millions back to the federal government through higher taxes, cuts to services, or both.

And here’s the kicker:
The audit found no criminal charges, just massive mismanagement and almost zero oversight.

The real issue?

OMES used a controversial “Rolling Solicitations” pilot program that allowed no-bid vendor selection and bypassed normal safeguards.

Translation:
A blank check with almost no accountability.

If you applied for rental help during COVID and got denied… now you know where some of that money went.

What do you think?
Is it time to end Oklahoma’s no-bid contract culture?

🚨 Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner Race – June 16, 2026 Republican Primary 🚨

This race is critically important for every Oklahoma family and business. Our homeowner insurance rates have skyrocketed — now averaging over $6,000 per year, the highest (or among the very highest) in the nation, more than double the national average. Car insurance is also crushing budgets.

We need a strong fighter in the Insurance Commissioner’s office who will demand transparency, increase competition, hold Big Insurance accountable, protect consumers, and bring rates down without compromising the market.

Four strong Republicans are running in the June 16 primary (winner faces Democrat Craig MacIntyre in November). Here’s a detailed rundown:

Bob Sullivan (Inola/Tulsa area)
• 20+ year property & casualty insurance broker with advanced certifications (CIC, CRM, CPCU, etc.).
• Platform: “Make Insurance Fair Again – Oklahoma First.” Aggressive consumer advocate — end price-gouging, slow claims, and unfair practices; consumer “bill of rights”; more carrier choices and competition; transparency reforms.
• No known controversies or scandals. Positions himself as the independent outsider fighting the insurance “swamp.”
• Strong on direct consumer protection.

Chris Merideth (Edmond)
• 25+ years in insurance operations, claims, agency, and public policy. Currently in legislative affairs at Farmers Insurance; serves on national industry/regulatory boards.
• Platform: Consumer protection with smart reforms; cut red tape; transparency and competition to lower costs; resiliency standards; business-friendly while opposing federal overreach.
• Criticism: Seen by some as the “industry insider” due to his carrier background — potential for closer ties to companies he’d regulate.
• No personal scandals.

Greta Shuler (Shawnee)
• 10+ years in insurance sales and business management (top-producing agent); former Shawnee City Councilwoman/Commissioner.
• Platform: Transparent relationships between consumers, agents, and carriers; fair risk-based pricing (against “pricing optimization” that penalizes individuals); consumer education/advocacy; disaster preparedness.
• No controversies. Focuses on local, practical experience and bridging sides as a consumer champion.

Marty L. Quinn (Owasso/Claremore area)
• 40+ years in insurance (independent agency owner); 12 years in Oklahoma Legislature (House & Senate), chaired Senate Insurance Committee.
• Platform: Recruit more quality carriers for competition; accountability and transparency from insurers; tort reform; stop unfair policy drops (e.g., roof age or single claim); protect families while stabilizing the market.
• Deep legislative experience. No scandals. Strong conservative with capital ties (served under Gov. Stitt era; some bills signed by him).

Debate coming up: All four will debate Monday, June 8, 2026, at 5:45 p.m. at Tower Theatre in OKC (hosted by NonDoc/News 9, sponsored by Oklahoma Association of REALTORS). Great chance to hear them directly! https://t.co/NSzGServCL

This is your chance to elect someone who will actually fight for lower rates and better service. Early voting is open — make your voice heard on June 16!

Research them yourself:

[Conservative Pen @ConservativePen]

Oklahoma Natural Gas has once again filed paperwork seeking approval to raise customer rates through Oklahoma’s Performance Based Rate Change process.

On paper, the increase looks modest. The company says the average residential customer would see only a modest monthly impact after credits are applied. That is typically how these filings are presented to the public. They’re “small adjustment” that cause a minimal burden, and are labeled as a “necessary infrastructure investment.” They’re minute enough that customers don’t give them a second thought.

But, ONG has returned to regulators multiple times in recent years seeking additional revenue tied to infrastructure upgrades, operational costs, and maintaining what utilities call an authorized rate of return. Each request is defended as reasonable, and each increase appears manageable in isolation. What happens when these rate increases become an annual occurrence?
Most Oklahomans are not following Corporation Commission filings; and they definitely are not attending hearings in Oklahoma City or reviewing utility dockets after work. Who has the time or energy? They simply notice that bills continue rising across nearly every category of daily life while being told each individual increase is insignificant on its own. This is a common strategy by large corporations. These companies know that large monetary spikes will create backlash. So they hit us with small incremental increases over time.

Supporters of these rate adjustments argue Oklahoma’s infrastructure must be maintained and modernized. That is, of course, true. Aging systems require an investment, and neglecting critical utility infrastructure can create serious safety and reliability concerns.

Critics, however, argue the current structure creates little meaningful resistance to repeated increases being passed onto customers. Once costs are approved, they become part of the baseline moving forward. The next request is then built on top of the last one. Over time, what began as small adjustments becomes a steadily expanding cost burden carried almost entirely by the public.

The debate becomes even more complicated as Oklahoma aggressively pursues industrial expansion, data centers, and other high energy demand development projects across the state. Many consumers are beginning to ask whether average households will ultimately absorb part of the long term infrastructure costs associated with that growth.

Energy demand is rising nationally. And utility companies are investing heavily to prepare for future expansion. Regulators continue approving recovery mechanisms that allow companies to recoup those investments through customer bills.
When is enough, enough?

Nobody is arguing infrastructure shouldn’t be maintained. The question is when “cost recovery” stops being justified and starts becoming a permanent expectation placed on customers by a multi billion dollar company.

The public hearing for ONG’s latest filing is scheduled for:

June 11, 2026 at 10:00 a.m.
Concourse Theater, Suite C50
2401 N. Lincoln Boulevard
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Members of the public may appear and comment before the Oklahoma Corporation Commission.
They expect you not to show up. Maybe it’s time we surprise them.

Dear President Trump, as an Oklahoman and a MAGA Patriot I wanted to give you my thoughts on the Oklahoma Governor's Race

With 40 days to go, I wanted you to know Drummond is dropping in the polls and he is a RINO. Whoever you endorse against him will win.

Let’s review why he is an RINO

Did you know Drummond fought against your administration last year at the Supreme Court over School Choice?

Did you know he donated to Joe Biden in 2020, and then, when he was caught, publicly blamed his wife instead of taking responsibility?

Did you know he doesn't have a problem with his wife donating to the Lincoln Project?

Did you know he sided with the ACLU to delay Oklahoma’s transgender surgery ban?

Did you know he refused to endorse you in the 2024 Republican Primary for President?

Did you know he didn't give to your campaign once either in 2016 or 2020?

Did you know he refused to defend you when Eric Swalwell demanded to know if you should have been impeached twice?

He said, on the 1st impeachment: “That’s outside my lane” and on the 2nd impeachment, “I don’t have an opinion on that”?

Did you know last month he was named “The Secularist of the Week” by The Freedom from Religion Foundation?

Did you know he was caught on camera telling a grassroots activist: “I’m a grown A** Attorney General, I don’t need your vote.”?

Did you know that a top Hillary Clinton and Democratic fundraiser, Sue Ann Arnall, hosted a major fundraiser for him in July 2025?

Did you know the Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association publicly rescinded its endorsement of him because he is Anti-Farmer?

Did you know he has caused religious divisions? He said: “Do we really want public school teachers teaching your Baptist child if they are Catholic?”

Did you know Justice Samuel Alito rebuked his legal stance against St. Isidore as motivated by “hostility toward religion”?

Did you know he claimed that too many Christians confuse religious freedom with political power and has warned about “Christian Nationalism”?

Did you know he refused to join 16 GOP AGs who sued to block Biden’s immigration pathway plan?

Did you know he refused to join 17 GOP AGs to oppose Biden’s move to classify gender dysphoria as a disability?

Did you know he refused to join 17 GOP AGs seeking to prosecute Fauci at the state level?

Did you know he donated thousands to Democrats statewide and has openly encouraged Democrats to vote for him in the primary?

Did you know he took $3.6M in COVID relief loans, more than any other U.S. official, and later forgave them through his own Blue Sky Bank?

Did you know he blocked over 500 Oklahoma voters on X, including me for asking him simple questions?

Does this sound like someone who is even remotely close to being considered “MAGA”?

Other candidates are running in this race who are 100% “MAGA” and support your America First agenda, President Trump.

The other candidates have the financial resources to compete and he is collapsing in the polls.

The MAGA base would be very angry and disappointed if Drummond became Governor.

No one in the MAGA base supports him.

Gentner Drummond is a true RINO.

If you issue a Truth Social post against him then he will drop even more in the polls!

I hope and pray you see this letter President Trump. Let me know if you have any questions about this race, I will be happy to answer them. I pray for you daily. Please keep up the great work Making America Great Again and God Bless.

[Okie_Rancher @Okie_Rancher]

Oklahoma's own Game of Thrones continues, with candidates who put the drama of the fictional characters to shame:

Keating:
Our state's own Roose Bolton: He used "REAL ID non-compliance" as the wedding-feast cover, then purged the DPS leadership investigating the OHP promotional-exam cheating scheme over Labor Day weekend 2019. The deputy who delivered the firing ultimatums was his father's old staffer. Protected friends. Punished whistleblowers.
Drummond:
The Varys who uses connections and the discretionary power of his office to play every side. He took the O'Donnell tag-agent prosecution from the DA, called him "guilty," then dismissed all eight counts anyway. The little birds always serve his realm.
Mazzei:
Oklahoma's Tywin Lannister, the financier with the gold to buy off enemies and bankroll the throne. A Mazzei always pays his debts. The question is, who's collecting?
McCall:
He puts Littlefinger's manipulations to shame. He climbed the chaos ladder to the longest speakership in state history, then rewrote House rules so a duly elected representative can't have a bill rescued from a committee dungeon without permission from the Speaker and his appointee. The governorship is just the next rung.

All of the wealthy elite are taking out personal loans, not from the iron bank, but from their own coffers in the millions... but why, you ask? Because each has met with PACs and large donors, their own bannermen, in backrooms to secure their commitments to repay the "loans" each candidate made to their own campaign, but only AFTER the election. That way each can hide their allegiance to Big Ag, Big Pharma, Oil and Gas, and the billionaires who truly run our state. Campaign reports will never show who is pulling the strings until after the election.

@JakeMerrick4Gov stands as the sole candidate fighting for the freedom of the common people, facing an onslaught from millionaires and yet to be disclosed PACs and special interests.

Will the wildings of Oklahoma's small towns and rural communities rally behind Jake to fight off the armies of Oklahoma's elite? We can only hope...

The great game goes on.

[Snarkio 🇺🇸 @Snarkio_]

Two powerhouse Tulsa foundations are spearheading the charge to bulldoze sacred church land into sprawling, low-income housing complexes in the city! Housing Forward, funded by major cash from the Anne & Henry Zarrow Foundation and the George Kaiser Family Foundation, are right there in the photo-ops with City Hall and developers, happily holding workshops to convert holy ground into apartment blocks.

Picture it: the iconic, historic Boston Avenue Methodist Church—that Art Deco masterpiece—ringed by Section 8 density. Nothing says “preserving our heritage” like turning a landmark of faith into a backdrop for the next urban revitalization experiment.

Nothing to see here, folks—just another day in the “philanthropy” game by foundations, funded by Jewish benefactors, running the city.

[Sun Tzu @SunTzusWar]

I see a lot of people hating on @GenFlynn and Q

This is personal to me.

Here is why.

In early 2018 I was one of the only lawyers analyzing Q posts and posting threads with analysis of what Q was saying from the standpoint of a trial lawyer.

I received a random direct message from General Flynn. I’m posting it here. This was after one of my threads on a Q post.

He encouraged me because that was a lonely time back then.

Later on in September, General Flynn accepted an award and gave a wonderful speech.

Later that night, he sent me this direct message. Where we go when we go all.

Prior to that the only place that I had heard that was from Q, 3 or 4 times before Flynn sent that to me.

It has now been eight years since he sent that message to me.

I am a big picture thinker. I see what’s going on. Do with that what you want.

[Handre @Handre]

Cash for Clunkers destroyed $2.4 billion in working capital in 2009. The government paid dealers to pour sodium silicate into 690,000 perfectly functioning engines -- rendering them permanently inoperable.

These weren't junkyard cars. The program required trade-ins to be drivable and insured. You had working vehicles that poor families desperately needed, and bureaucrats systematically destroyed them to boost GM sales (while GM was under government ownership, naturally).

The environmental impact? Pure theater. Most clunkers got 18+ mpg -- hardly gas guzzlers. Meanwhile, building new cars generates 25 tons of CO2 per vehicle before they leave the factory. The program likely increased net emissions while making transportation less affordable for everyone earning under $50k.
