Rep. Jacob Rosecrants

This no gray-hair having thousand yard-staring 1st-year teacher at Roosevelt Middle School in SW OKC from 2012 sends positive vibes & prayers to all teachers, admin, & staff for the new school year! ❤️ Y’all take care of yourselves & your students & current me will take on incompetent state supers. 💪

This is a dual-purpose selfie.

One, to show I’ve moved on from the man bun and big curly stache (it was time, & it’s too hot 🥵). Two, well, just zoom in on the sunglasses and you’ll see an important message!

Legit Things A State Could Do Regarding Federally-mandated State Tests (note…cannot just *snap* your fingers and end them…I wish!!):

Y’all know I’ve been trying to kill the state tests for forever & a day (I mean it’s even in my pinned intro tweet!), so if you think I haven’t already done a bit of research into how it can be done from the state level, you’d be wrong! Here’s what’s what, in a 7-part thread:

🧵 1/7

If Walters is serious & not just trying to distract from his office TV’s auto-playing explicit movie/incompetence…he will find allies at the Cap. Until then, this is just him taking something popular (ending state tests) & trying to pit parents against schools districts.

🧵3/3

When an incompetent leader says somethin good, like he’s ending state testing, it still lands like a lead balloon…bc, well, incompetence. Y’all know I’m the biggest cheerleader of Team End State Test, but it’ll take federal/state/local districts workin together to do it.

🧵2/3

My take on the supposed end of the scourge that is state testing…in a thread.*

*Note: In a Red Pen of Truth/Yellow Highlighter of Awareness collab, Red Pen strikes out the political BS, & Highlighter shows that ending the state tests is indeed popular. 👀 ⬇️

🧵1/3

Confirmed Walters had an explicit movie scene on his TV, seen by State Board of Ed members. Some think this vindicates him…nope! If “Samsung TV-gate” is to be believed, only the Board folk are vindicated. The Yellow Highlighter of Awareness also asks: What if the shoe was on the other foot? 👀 ⬇️

Just in time for Halloween, y’all! 🎃

It WILL, however, lead to even more chaos & incompetence, & perhaps the 51st spot in education (yes, we can go lower ⬇️ ).

Now, more than ever, Oklahoma is finding out that elections have major consequences. Don’t forget this as we head into 2026, y’all.

🧵5/5

*Deep sigh*

Folks…chaos, excuses, lies, & incompetence will NOT help children, families, nor our schools.

Also…none of this will lead to his impeachment, bc if the accountability-allergic GOP supermajority at the Cap wanted to do it, it would already be done!

🧵4/5

If I were one of those Board members, I’d have a defamation suit ready to roll, as they def saw NSFW & arguably pornographic content, as you can tell from this description of a scene from the movie, which matches almost exactly with what the Board members say they saw:

🧵3/5

OK. Weird, but plausible.

If that’s what really went down, the excuses & lies that Walters and his clown car of protectors came up with, including stating *repeatedly* that it was Gov. Stitt & his Board members that were targeting him, were just that: Excuses & lies.

🧵2/5

Apparently, the Samsung TV that was in the office of Supt. Walters was indeed playing a NSFW (Not Safe For Work) movie from 1985 called “The Protector” (I left some parent reviews later in the thread) and that it just…automatically came on the TV. Here’s my take in a 🧵:

I bet this nice young councilman running for mayor of the island community of Anacortes, Washington wonders what in the F is going on in Oklahoma. Y’all just know his inbox is flooded! 🫠

With as crazy as politics are these days, my initial thought that the Texas Rangers baseball team was investigating Texas Democrats, didn’t seem all that odd. Lol.

Also let’s hear it for the Texas House Dems who are doing all they can to stop authoritarianism! 👏👏👏

Moderate Rs & Independents who back public schools: It’s OK to vote for a Democrat over a moderate R. “Pro-public ed” moderate Rs must do the bidding of an R supermajority, which can push things that aren’t pro-public ed. Political balance = accountability, & that means electing more Democrats. 💙⚖️

Love it when I state things that are literally happening & I’m met with a chorus of “show me the proof” from a bunch of folks who excrete fact-free 🐴 💩 daily. How about show ME the proof that I’m lying. Yep, you just got hit with the Rosecrants Reverse card!

If you want better public schools, rise above the partisan talking points & engage with the professionals teaching your kids: Their teachers. No teacher wants less parental involvement!

Parents + teachers + students working together will help build a stronger country! 🇺🇸

🧵2/2

This is for all the parents out yonder constantly railing against public schools.

Yes, our school system needs change…too much focus on test scores, not enough on holistic learning. But vouchers & “school choice” are a scam, not a solution.

🧵1/2

I struggle daily between 2 political halves: Mr. Bipartisanship, always looking across the aisle, hoping to see some common sense take hold, & Mr. No Way No How Will I Ever Work With Folks Who Either Turn a Blind Eye Or Who Support Incompetent Clowns Like Supt. Walters. 🙋‍♂️ if y’all feel me!

Hearing that some of y’alls Republican state reps & senators are saying Ryan Walters must be convicted of a crime to be impeached.

Tsk. Tsk. Not true! 👀 ⬇️

They either don’t understand state statute or they are lying. 🤥

Magic City books don’t miss, y’all!
👏👏👏

Top o’ the mornin to all, except gaslighting state supers!
Even if nothing comes of his latest porn-on-the-TV scandal, dude bro has shown he’s unfit for public office. No matter your politics, remember the lies, willful neglect of duty, incompetence, & hate, if he ever shows up on a ballot again.

Oklahoma Tax Commission denies American Virtual Academy’s eligibility A conservative online private school supported by State Superintendent Ryan Walters was deemed ineligible according to a news release from the Oklahoma Tax Commission.

This is good news, but Arizona-based American Virtual Academy will keep trying so we need to stay wary, because this school is super suspicious, lots of red flags. 🚩 Link to the deets: www.koco.com/article/okla...
