Lauren Boebert fell apart when Stephanie Ruhle asked her for a plan, names and a timeline. Boebert said she “doesn’t know” what names will come forward for Speaker but expects “a menu of names”. She also said Congress isn’t spending money without a Speaker… it absolutely is.

Two days into Stitt’s term & he’s already packing the State Board of Education w/ campaign supporters. Longtime ed leaders are being replaced by an oil executive, a former political candidate & a woman who said abortion & slavery are the same thing. It’s never been about kids.

No matter what happens tonight, I'm proud of how Oklahomans vocally stood up to extremism, fought against bigotry and demanded the absolute best for our kids. We have all the power to build the state we deserve. Never stop fighting - no matter what. 💚

The Governor of Oklahoma insinuated he couldn’t find a way to change his flight to get back from France earlier while the state was in a crisis. I checked there are an average of 8-10 one way flights from Paris to Tulsa with a single layover scheduled each day. Eight to ten.

Gov. Stitt says he tried to change his flights to come home sooner. He also tells me he had communication with Mayor Bynum, although Bynum said in a news conference he had reached out to the Governor several times unsuccessfully. @KJRH2HD

ZERO GOP nominees for Oklahoma’s congressional delegation *fully accepted* the legitimacy of the 2020 election. They are ALL currently projected to win. We’re the ONLY state that could be 100% represented by election deniers. Our democracy is on the ballot on November 8th. VOTE.

Kevin Stitt re-appointed Ryan Walters to Sec of Education in January, making him both Ed. Sec. & State Supt. He’s been awaiting senate approval since. The GOP has a supermajority in the senate, but hasn’t confirmed Walters as Ed. Sec. Today, he was replaced. Speaks volumes.

Ryan Walters is not a conservative. Conservatives believe in limited government and increased community and individual autonomy. Ryan Walters has used his time in office to turn government into a weapon for intimidation and control. That’s not conservatism… that’s fascism.

Ryan Walters & Kevin Stitt are actively trying to defund & dismantle Oklahoma’s public schools. Whether you live in up Tulsa, out in Taloga or down in Tishomingo, your public school is on the chopping block. This isn’t about politics. It’s about our kids’ futures. VOTE Nov 8th

Hear me out: maybe people who believe the law doesn’t apply to them… shouldn’t have the power to make laws.

I was on a flight back to Tulsa tonight and had Twitter open on my phone when a video of Ryan Walters popped up on my feed. The woman sitting next to me saw it and made a point to lean over and tell me how heinous she thinks he is. Needless to say… we’re friends now.

Kevin Stitt & Ryan Walters are doing some furious damage control, so let’s be clear. They both: - Want vouchers that will defund our public schools. - Have no real plans to improve student outcomes or raise teacher pay. - Abuse their power to attack teachers. We deserve better.

Ryan Walters says he will require teachers to “undergo patriotic education training” by an “ultra-conservative” organization… that’s trying to expand charter schools. Ryan Walters will defund & politicize our public schools with radical extremism. Oklahoma deserves better.

In 2016, James Lankford won re-election with over 2/3 of the vote. He beat his closest opponent by more than 43% In the latest poll, @madisonhornok is at 40%. Just 11% behind Lankford. No Democrat has hit 40% in an OK Senate race since 2004. Madison’s message is resonating.

When asked why he chose a press conference at the GOP HQ instead of meeting w/ Dr. Gist to find solutions, Walters said he wants “to talk directly to Tulsans”. But he barred parents from attending the press conference, won’t commit to town halls & won’t attend the TPS board mtg.

@Ibra_Taher Your bio says "anti-war" and "anti-authoritarianism", but you're against a resolution condemning a war started by an authoritarian leader? Okay.
