Editorial: Voters send message with retention vote on judges

Tulsa Beacon

Oklahomans sent a message this week when they voted, for the first time in state history, to oust a sitting member of the Oklahoma Supreme Court while two other justices came within a whisker of sharing the same fate. The question is whether defenders of the status quo will listen to the voters. In 1967,…

Editorial: ESG study highlights danger for Oklahoma Taxpayers

Tulsa Beacon

In recent years “environmental, social, and governance” (ESG) investing has become a prominent topic in the financial world as some large asset managers have claimed they will now invest money based on political goals rather than the longstanding norm of maximizing returns. Oklahoma lawmakers voted to prohibit ESG asset managers from having state contracts, arguing…

Letter: Karen Keith is the best choice for Tulsa Mayor

Tulsa Beacon

In our opinion, Karen Keith is the clear choice for Tulsa Mayor in the upcoming election and it’s not close.  We’re convinced that she will prioritize public safety and work with Republicans and Independents to preserve Tulsa as a good place to raise a family, run a business and practice our faith.  Republicans and conservatives…

Letter: Awake and Strengthen

Tulsa Beacon

I was there, ground zero, at the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa, Canada. I brought my wife and our young children. There were inflatable bouncy castles, and street hockey games. It was peaceful but powerful. Canadians were exercising their democratic rights – freedom of speech and peaceful assembly. By the winter of 2022, Canada’s leaders had…

Letter: On Election Day, be Discerning, not Disengaged

Tulsa Beacon

What should Christians do when neither presidential candidate aligns with their values?  I’ve heard sincere believers say, “I just can’t vote for someone who is blatantly immoral, dishonest, egotistical, and hedonistic.  I might just sit this one out or vote third-party to make a statement.” Of course, I wonder which of the candidates they are…

Letter: Telling it, Like it is

Tulsa Beacon

Judging by what has happen the last few years, the Democratic party has gone to pot!  That and some of the government agencies as well, and most of the national television news. Truth is now hard to find. If there had been truth, the present mentally and bodily disabled president, would not have been elected…

Letter: Profiling by the Left

Tulsa Beacon

For many years Leftists (Including the mainstream media) have referred to conservatives as “Right Wing Extremists”, “White Supremists”, and “Domestic Terrorists”.  Though such phrases were falsely leveled against Individuals on the right, the terms themselves did equate to Fringe elements which were known to exist on the outskirts of society.  (For Example, Groups such as…

Editorial: U.S. Supreme Court Should Take Charter-School Case

Tulsa Beacon

This year the Oklahoma Supreme Court declared the Catholic Church cannot sponsor the proposed St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual School, declaring the church would be a “state actor” using taxpayer funds for religious purposes. The case could be appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court. Oklahomans should hope justices agree to take up this important…
