The State of Oklahoma has had a record amount of revenue in 2018. That is indisputable, even though some liberal pundits think the billion-dollar-plus budget surplus is “fake news.” It’s not. The numbers are there. The money is in the state treasury. Hundreds of millions of dollars are pouring into the state Rainy Day Fund….
