    Hi Brad. I was there covering it. Police shut down the gate for about 15-20 minutes, asked everyone to back up, which they did, and then started letting people in again. And there were at least two other entry ways with no protesters.

    If you take out a loan, you pay it back. A student loan is no different from a house or car loan -- taxpayers shouldn't be forced to foot the bill. Student debt transfer is reckless and unfair to the 87% of Americans who either never took out loans or responsibly paid them back.

    Here's a list of #Oklahoma politicians who have taken money from EPIC charter schools' co-founders David Chaney and Ben Harris and former CFO Josh Brock, all of whom were arrested today on RICO and other criminal complaints. 🧵

    Mullin, who financial disclosure reports show has a net worth in the millions of dollars, had nearly $1.2 million in federal PPP loans forgiven by the federal government.
    We do not need farmers and ranchers, small business owners, and teachers in Oklahoma paying the debts of Ivy League lawyers and doctors across the U.S. This places undue burden on those already suffering due to the weight of Biden’s failed economic policy.

    Gov. Mary Fallin arrived in McAlester to tour a local business this morning, but was greeted by teacher protesters at the airport. #OklahomaTeachersWalkout #Oked

    I was just kicked out of a meeting at the Capitol between all #Oklahoma pension heads and state Treasurer Todd Russ. He also asked that all attorneys be removed. This meeting is over the Treasurer’s blacklist of financial institutions and millions in state pension funds

    Rep. Kevin Hern (whose net worth is several million, owns several McDonald's franchises and pushed Congress to allow those types of businesses to receive PPP loans) and his spouse, had at least $2.6 million in federal PPP loans forgiven by the government.

    Just discovered the public access computers at the Oklahoma Secretary of State’s office have been removed and probably are not coming back. So if you want to learn about corporations, nonprofits, etc., you’re going to have to pay around $5 per record. Not cool.

    Two tweets posted within an hour of each other by Oklahoma Congressman Markwayne Mullin.

    Oklahoma is certainly a land of contrasts. @GovStitt pushes for hundreds of millions of $ in taxpayer subsidies for a multi-billion dollar international corporation, but said he doesn’t want to give the homeless “free stuff” and will not consider expanding affordable housing here

    Last night @SPJFW awarded @jpalmerOKC, @reesejgorman and I 1st place in investigative reporting for the @OklahomaWatch/@readfrontier joint investigation uncovering how federal education $ misspent thanks to lax oversight by the state. Well done guys!
