Ten Oklahoma legislators criticized high school students for leaving class and publicly demonstrating, in exercise of their First Amendment right, against ICE's conduct. None of them issued any statement critical of Trump for posting a racist meme depicting Barrack Obama and wife Michelle as apes.

HOME | Trump Kennedy Center

Delightful when a South Park writer buys the URL to the "Trump-Kennedy Center" before the MAGA folks wake up.

White House Refuses to Rule Out Summary Executions of People on Its Secret Domestic Terrorist List The Trump administration ignored questions about whether it would order the killings of those on its NSPM-7 list β€” even while answering our other queries.

Are Trumper MAGA supporters OK with the federal government summarily executing Americans it deems to be terrorists? theintercept.com/2025/12/12/t...

OKC Mayor David Holt draws lone challenger in reelection bid; others file in OK County Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt drew just one challenger, Matthew Pallares, in his bid for reelection to a third term in 2026.

Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt drew one opponent in his upcoming bid for re-election. After his last landslide victory in 2022, in which he fended off three opponents, this time around should be even easier.

If we added 15 more days to the school year, the average district would spend appx $1M; statewide: $440–$620M.

I’d rather invest in what really helps kids: smaller classes, reading specialists, ⬆️ pay for support staff, mental health supports, etc.

I’m for improving our schools…but this ain’t it.

The video cartoon of Trump bombing feces on protestors might as well be the misinformation he dumps on his own base. Frankly, if I was returning from an 8 year visit to Mars and was told what was happening in the White House I wouldn't believe it either.

In another example of failing to understand what is going on, a reasonably intelligent friend (who I assume voted for Trump) posted that Trump was not a king because he was democratically elected.

I suppose my friend never cleans out his refrigerator of food that goes bad. (cont'd)

I read some MAGA social media responses about the No Kings protests. The one that stood out was this one: "Just what were they protesting anyway?"

I admit I am as perplexed by that comment as the commentator apparently was about the protest. How does one not know what this was about? (cont'd)
