Hostage Takers: Here are our demands: We keep the hostages; we get to take hostages again whenever we want; and we want $100 million.
Dems: Will you agree to claim the ransom money on your taxes next April?
Hostage Takers: Um, sure.
Dems: DEAL!

INVESTIGATIONS on Ryan Walters - YouTube
After years of my investigative reports, including a focus on misuse of money, the controversial state superintendent resigned.
Hi! Iβm the reporter you may have seen trying to question Ryan Walters after he resigned. Iβve been extensively investigating his office (along with other Oklahoma state agencies) the last couple years. Hereβs a look back at my coverage-

Attorneys who ignore their ethical duties to do Trump's bidding risk being sanctioned and even disbarred. Happened to Giuliani, Powell, Chesebro.
I'm confident the career AUSAs in the EDVA will follow their oaths - even if it means resigning rather than helping obtain an unjust indictment.

I don't think people outside of Oklahoma can fully appreciate just how insane Walters is.
Unfortunately, I think politics in this country will go even lower than where we're at and I think people like Walters are in the vanguard of that effort.
He's just an internet shitpost come to life.

I hope he's gone, but the only place he should really be going is to be a long term guest of BOP.

If he is indicted, I think there's a good chance the case is dismissed for vindictive prosecution based on recent social media posts.
Still, the fact we're here just shows how much further we've fallen into authoritarianism.
Oh, and Kash Patel better hope this doesn't happen.

The only people who can make this determination are the grand jurors and I have no doubt nobody's talked to them.
And has that new U.S. attorney even been sworn in yet?
He may be indicted, but this "expected to be indicted" may turn out to be wishful thinking more than anything.

Next year. Yes, he's likely to win because he has an 'R' after his name. Oklahoma has straight ticket voting and many here vote straight Republican. I know people who voted straight ticket last time but swear they didn't vote for Walters (They absolutely did).
Plus many people here like this crap.

I thought it was time for Mike Gundy to go, but there's no denying his accomplishments.
Just lasting 20 years as a head coach in college football is amazing in and of itself.
Best of luck, Coach and thanks for all you've done for OSU!

Without tangible policy shifts, real changes in aid, or the enforcement of sanctions, itβs nothing more than talk - a position that could shift tomorrow or next month again, after Putinβs next call or another βstrategicβ visit from Witkoff. What matters are actions, not words.

West Point was forced to disband clubs earlier this year that had been part of the academy for decades, but this kind of forced indoctrination is just fine with MAGA.
Hopefully superintendents in Oklahoma will continue to ignore this crank.

I wouldn't want the tapes released. They're evidence. The statute for bribery is five years IIRC. If there's a next administration, I would think they could still indict him if that's warranted.
Now if DOJ is going to try disappear the evidence, then sure.

Herbert's going to make the quick passes Nix can't make and just move it 8-10 yards at a time.
