Chick-fil-A has buckled under political pressure and will no longer donate to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and the Salvation. Those are two outstanding nonprofits who do great work for young athletes and for America’s poor. What “crimes” did FCA and the Salvation Army commit? Nothing. No, they were singled out because they are Christian…
Oklahoma’s tribal casinos are proud to announce they paid $138 million to the state as part of their exclusive gambling compact. That’s a lot of money. But it’s a pittance when you see revenue figures for 2018 – $2,300,000,000.00. In other words, the casinos are donating chicken feed when it comes to how much money…
Tulsans, Oklahomans and Americans have a lot to be thankful for. Americans live in the most affluent nation in the history of the world. Americans enjoy more freedoms than other people can even imagine. That’s why so many are so desperate to come to America and make a new life. Who should be thanked on…

The proposition to legalize the medical use of marijuana was so poorly written that it has essentially legalized the recreational use of marijuana in Oklahoma. A majority of Oklahomans thought they were approving the limited use of marijuana for a small group of patients who believed they could only get relief from marijuana. The legalized…
The do-nothing Democrats in the U.S. House are so preoccupied with their attempted coup against President Trump that they are threatening the military. That’s right. U.S. Sen. James Inhofe, R-Oklahoma, is chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee. Inhofe issued a somber warning about how the “impeachment inquiry” in the House and the possibility of…
Former presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke in October said he wanted to use the tax code to punish churches and religious organizations – including hospitals and colleges – for adhering to Biblical principles. That’s one reason why Democrat O’Rourke is now a former candidate. It was not surprise when he dropped out of the race. He…
Democrats want to impeach President Trump because they wish to overturn the 2016 presidential election. Here’s how this will end. The House will vote along party lines and the Senate will acquit because the accusations against Trump are baseless. Speaker Pelosi knows this effort won’t get rid of Trump. The purpose is to drag his…
What will happen now that Oklahoma has released more than 500 convicts with the largest one-day commutation in U.S. history? Time will tell. The best outcome would be for these criminals to embrace their newfound freedom, clean up their lives and become productive citizens. Christian organizations, some employers and some of their families stand ready…
