Eliminating the U.S. Dept. of Education won’t improve Oklahoma’s ranking of 50th in education.

What it will do:

Weaken protections for students with disabilities.
Remove civil rights enforcement.
Reduce accountability.
Put funding for Title I schools at risk.

Passed 72-17

And so after a couple years of chaos and controversy, running an entire school system into the ground and leading a state where nobody now wants to teach, knowing he won’t win reelection, Walters quits his job. The biggest loser in American education.

Of all the insults Walters has hurled at Oklahoma educators, this is the strongest and most direct. He’s steering parents to a discredited out-of-state vendor over actual Oklahomans who want to teach their children. It’s appalling.

Howdy! The 2025 Oklahoma Social Studies Standards contain potential misinformation, notably:

1. 2020 Election Discrepancies: Students must study "discrepancies" like halted ballot counts and batch dumps, claims debunked by courts and officials.

Other concerns, like heavy Christian focus, spark debate but aren't clear misinformation. Limited access to the final document may hide further issues.

This administration has deported an Iranian Christian to her likely death and imported two sex traffickers.
This administration has more access to evangelical leadership than any in history. This is the quality of guidance American Evangelicals are currently capable of giving.

PAMELA BROWN: The Trump bibles are $60 a pop. There are many bibles available that cost half that. Why are you using a Trump-endorsed bible?

RYAN WALTERS: The bible, declaration of independence, and constitution are all included in this bible that we purchased

[Dylan Brown @dylantbrown]

Here it is - purchase order for just UNDER that $25,000 mark for 532 God Bless the USA Bibles from OSDE Supt. Ryan Walters. Again, state leaders have said it's that $25,000 mark that he can't go over without permission...this might be all he can do for now 🧵

If you are a Christian whose primary concern is to reduce abortions, you should vote for Kamala Harris.

Abortions have increased nationwide since Trump-appointed judges helped overturn Roe v. Wade, but research shows that abortion rates go down through comprehensive sex education, easy to access contraceptives, low-cost and high-quality pre/post natal care, and various poverty alleviation programs.

All of this is why abortion rates historically decrease under Democratic administrations and most likely will again under Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
