Gov. Kevin Stitt hit the ground running in his first month in office and like President Trump, Stitt seems committed to keeping his campaign promises. Stitt has ordered the state plane used by former governors to be sold. That will save a cool million a year. If he needs to go somewhere, there are military…
Tulsa basketball coach Frank Haith builds character in the young men he coaches. And he does it by word and by example. In January, TU hosted their annual Coaches vs. Cancer game. Coaches wore sneakers for the fight against cancer. Many schools, including Oklahoma and Oklahoma State, take part in this noble cause. Without much…
The world will end in 12 years. That’s the message from U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-New York. At a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event, Ocasio-Cortez, made that grim statement about global warming. “Millennials and people, you know, Gen Z and all these folks that will come after us are looking up and we’re like:…
I am writing to thank Tulsa residents for sharing the true meaning of Christmas with children in need this past holiday season. Because of the generosity of donors in Tulsa and across the United States, Operation Christmas Child, a project of Samaritan’s Purse, collected more than 8.8 million shoeboxes in 2018. Combined with those collected…
Many in the House and Senate need to realize this is about America, not about them, and their morally corrupt political parties. They are paid high wages to work for America in a fair, sensible and Godly way. That is not what we are getting for our money now. The safety of America should be…
Governor Kevin Stitt has made it his goal to move Oklahoma toward Top 10 status among the states. Exactly how he would measure this is unclear, but education is obviously targeted, given its prominence in his inaugural speech. This much is clear, though; Oklahoma will not become a top-ten state in education just by spending…
Why is South Tulsa not a factor in city politics? People who live and work in Midtown and Downtown dominate Tulsa policies and spending. Yet much of Tulsa’s retail business is outside those areas and they produce much of the funding for city government. Not too long ago, Woodland Hills Mall at 71st Street and…
If American Christians were serious about stopping the murder of unborn children, abortion would be abolished in this nation. The first step could be stopping abortion in Oklahoma. This is the United States of America. The founders, in their wisdom, put in checks and balances in the U.S. Constitution. That has been diluted through the…
Unlike so many politicians, President Trump is determined to keep his campaign promises. That’s refreshing. Past presidents compromised at the drop of a hat. The late George H.W. Bush famously promised no new taxes (“Read my lips – no new taxes”) and then made a deal with the Democrats to raise taxes if they cut…
The most vicious weapon the Democrats have to attack their opponents is character assassination. Pelosi said, as recorded by C-span, that internally they call it a “wrap up smear.” They compose a huge lie about a rival, enlist the mainstream media to tell the same lie and they both tell it over and over. Eventually…
