I don’t support Iran’s authoritarian theocracy, but regime change is messy & could cost 🇺🇸 lives/spark another forever war, which Trump (aka “President of Peace”) has railed against in the past. Regardless, we must support our service members & pray for their safety. 🇺🇸🙏

Last night, the Trump regime attacked another sovereign nation without Congress, risking a long-term conflict with Iran. With the recent military buildup, his poor poll numbers (& a desire to distract from his inclusion in the Epstein files), this isn’t surprising from Trump & them.

If yesterday’s performative election-year crap by the majority caucus on the House floor (and resultant exclamations from a few of us House Dems) taught us anything…it’s that there’s always two kinds of state reps! Lol.

There’s a lot I can’t abide (federal govt overreach, wannabe dictators, laws targeting marginalized folk, etc.) & add the pushing of performative bills like banning undocumented folk from SNAP & Medicaid.
They are already banned; only United States citizens have access.
Saying different is 🐂 💩!
I was saving this pic of Tiny Bernie for when bad legislation passed off the House floor, but this was both of us as we watched some footage of the cringefest/snorefest/bragfest/b*tchfest that was the SOTU. To see anybody celebrating it being more than that boggles the mind! 🫣

If you missed our “Triple Threat” 2026 Campaign kickoff (for Rep. Menz, Rep. Deck, & I)…here’s Rep. Menz & I doin’ a lil dos si do to Rep. Deck’s dulcet tones & vigorous 🎸 playin’!
I’ve been at this for a full decade & I’ve seen a lot, so believe me when I say the blue energy for 2026 is legit!! 🌊
Did we schedule our 2026 reelection campaign kickoff event on the same day/time of Trump’s State of the Union “speech” on purpose?
You bet your sweet democracy-lovin’ a** we did!!
Who’s ready for 2026? 🌊
I call this one “Rep. Rosecrants in His Natural Habitat on Public Schools Day at the Cap”, featuring me and a whole bunch of middle schoolers from Western Heights Middle School! Tons of parents, students, & teachers came up to celebrate & advocate for our public schools!!
#PublicSchoolProud 💪
Even the Constitution of the United States itself is wary of Christian Nationalism! You tell ‘em Connie!

It does feel like we Okies are deep behind Christian Nationalist lines…this 👀 ⬇️ confirms it!
*Not all Christians are Christian Nationalists. Christians follow Jesus. Christian Nationalists want govt to push a conservative version of Christianity in laws; opposite of Jesus’ teachings/freedom. 🇺🇸
It was great to catch up with Mrs. Keeley (an awesome Family & Consumer Sciences teacher at THE Whittier Middle School) & her FCCLA (Family, Career, & Community Leaders of America) ambassadors at the Cap yesterday. They’re pros at advocating for all things FCCLA!

Welp…after one look at this graphic (or photo 🤷♂️) we can be certain of at least 1 thing regarding Ryan Walters (who stepped down to lead the Teacher Freedom Alliance):
Dude is still on the cutting edge of incompetence!*
*Red Pen is sorry not sorry for the juvenile, yet truthful, edit. 💩

It was so carefree and enjoyable…couldn’t tell it was for such high stakes! Add to this her incredible comeback story, made me proud to be an American! 🇺🇸

Yikes! 😳
This is what someone looks like after giving in to the demons of pride, greed, & wrath. Word of advice from your friendly neighborhood state rep:
Don’t sell your soul!
That fresh feeling when my bills pass out of committee!*
*Passed HB 2987 (says if the Legislature doesn’t act on academic standards, they’re auto disapproved instead of approved), HB 3237 (motor vehicle tax exemption for Gold Star spouses), & HB 2970 (changes our state fossil to Sauroposeidon 🦕).
Watching my high school page Juliana Hong (of Norman North…Go Wolves!) ask questions during “Pageville”, where all the high school pages for the week pick bills and question/debate them, on the actual House floor. Love this opportunity for Juliana and all the other students! 😊

Hate saying a kid is “behind.” Behind who? Peers with different traumas or parental support? Early childhood experts say stop rushing childhood! Let kids play, move (recess & PE), and get academic & mental health support. Nurture the whole child and those test scores will follow…promise!!

A woman 👀 me up here at the Cap & said “You’re Oklahoma’s Gavin Newsom!”
Besides the fact I’m not a fit millionaire gov who buys designer suits (I’m more of a pleasantly plump thousandaire state rep who buys suits off the rack), we do share a bday & a disdain for authoritarian regimes…so I get it!
Well isn’t this just tariffic?!
Wonder what the “i VoTeD fOr tHiS” folks think about this?
*Sigh* 🤦♂️
Check out this comment/my reply on one of my many posts warning of the dangers of private school vouchers (like the Oklahoma Parental Choice Tax Credit) to our public schools. Word to the wise…only Rep. Rosecrants knows the Way of the Rosecrants! 🧘♂️

These Pam Bondi Valentines just hit different…kinda abrasive!
The Red Pen of Truth makes the Gov’s recent post regarding high school students exercising their rights to peaceful protest…make more sense. Though I don’t condone skipping class (& every district is giving consequences for doing so), I’m proud of these students for standing up for their beliefs! 💪

Walters became so toxic (even with conservative voters) that they want him erased, especially in 🟣 districts. Don’t fall for it! Do your homework on the current GOP super candidates, bc who backs them tells you everything, esp if OCPA, OCPAC, Barresi, etc. Dark Days can return, y’all! 😱
