I have some thoughts about the announcement made Thursday during the State Bd. of Educ. mtg. after spending some time today reading the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Articles of Confederation—

Sen. John Kennedy is a national treasure.

[The Bulwark @BulwarkOnline]

Kennedy: "You blamed those statements on Mr. Stephen Miller at the White House. Did you not?"

Noem: "No, sir, I did not… I've never said that at all."

Kennedy: "You said on the record, 'Everything I've done, I've done at the direction of the president and Stephen.'"

Noem: "You read that in a news article with no sources."

Kennedy: "Are you denying that you said that?"

Noem: "Sir, I'm not going to speak to that situation…no one has heard me say that."

Officially, @timburchett is the @JohnKennedyLA of the House.

In honor of my Dad’s birthday today, I officially qualified to run for Georgia Secretary of State in the Republican Primary. I’m the only Republican candidate that can win in November. To get there, I need your help. Please give today at https://t.co/f9jyDHFurH

🚨 JUST IN: Rep. Tim Burchett drops HILARIOUS RESPONSE to Lindsey Graham calling on President Trump to bomb Lebanon

"Lindsey Graham hasn't seen a FIST FIGHT he hasn't wanted to turn into a BOMBING raid! So, I take it with a grain of salt, dude!"

Tim's a national treasure 😅

@kylehilbert Officially “Abu el Banat.” @cjcavin can explain.

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

@abegailcave Hats off! You proved yourself in reply. I attacked your argument because it lacked depth and facts. I could never compete with the “cuteness” of your spin on X. I wonder if your spin actually helps the Governor serve Oklahomans, or is it self-promoting?

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

@BestBuy, save some great people at the OKC Central store, watch out for my survey. It’s going to be a read. I’ve been misguided throughout this appliance purchase. And I am now seething.

I receive a number to call back that runs me through an automated system. I ask for a human. It hangs up on me. I call the same number again. It doesn’t work. Back to the UPS chatbot that told me to call. It asks for contact information, and it tells me that I’m on a waitlist.

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

@UPS, you made almost $2 billion in profit for Q2 2025. Your CEO earned $24M in total compensation. But I can’t talk to a human about the delivery issue. I just received a “security access” message. This is ridiculous.

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

@GovKathyHochul, this is below the belt, unnecessary, and PEAK coastal elite. This insults all Oklahomans. Mean tweets like this inflame distrust and lack of respect for Americans on the coast. Not everyone agrees with Walters. Disagree w/o being disagreeable. #okpol #oklaed

[Governor Kathy Hochul @GovKathyHochul]

Censoring teachers as a recruitment tactic. Peak Oklahoma.

@pampollard A rebrand that makes NO SENSE!

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

The privilege and arrogance of this question. What a joke! I wish @FoxNews was actually embarrassed by this question.

[The Bulwark @BulwarkOnline]

Doocy: "Are you prepared to keep sending Ukrainian troops to their death for another couple years, or are you going to agree to redraw the map?"

Zelensky: "We live under each day attacks...We need to stop this war to stop Russia. We need the support of American and European partners."

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

Thank you @kylehilbert. Someone get the Speaker a beverage for his stint as Oklahoma’s own Sherlock Holmes. #Protectorgate

Here at @Massport and the Rental car company on my “Sh!t” list today: @Avis. The level of breathtaking incompetence is astounding.

Press: “Supt. Walters, we are 48th in Education. How are you going to fix it?”
Supt. Walters: “We need to eliminate the state income tax.”
Press: “You didn’t answer the question, and how is eliminating the income tax related to improving education?”
Walters: 🦗🦗🦗

This is INSANE.

[OSINTdefender @sentdefender]

The National Weather Service (NWS) is on high-alert and both federal as well as state law enforcement agencies are investigating recent threats made against weather radar facilities operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The threats are said to have been made by a group calling themselves Veterans on Patrol, described as an anti-government militia located in Arizona and led by self-proclaimed Christian nationalist and conspiracy theorist Michael “Lewis Arthur” Meyer, who believes that the NWS’s Doppler weather radar systems are being used as a “weather weapon” against people in the United States. The milita has since sent threats to several radar sites across the country, while publicly encouraging attacks against the facilities; NOAA officials have also received internal warnings about the group advocating for “penetration drills” to identify weaknesses at the radar sites, with the goal of ultimately destroying them and harming staff members of the NWS.

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

After every attack on a public official, we remind ourselves—meaninglessly—to lower the vitriol and temperature in political rhetoric. Nothing ever changes permanently. Political leaders dial it back momentarily. We’ve got to do better and prioritize and promote civility.

[Thomas R. Schneider, LL.M. @TSchneiderOK]

Thinking about @GovernorShapiro and his family tonight. Thankful that they are safe. I imagine that they never thought someone could be so brazen. #PAGov
