Trans Lawyer disrupts custody hearing: forcefully removed for contempt and has unladylike behavior

On February 5, 2026, a child custody hearing in Pontotoc County District Court in Ada, Oklahoma. The hearing did a 180 turn when attorney Rob Hopkins, a woman who thinks she's a man, was representing a client in the case.

The main thrust of the hearing was about paperwork issues and the client’s absence due to an open warrent and protective order from another county.

Judge Laurie Jackson, a woman who is comfortable in her own skin, started by addressing Hopkins about his use of the word “butt” while quoting a bailiff. Things heated up fast. In a loud unladylike response, Hopkins raised her voice and loudly demanded the judge point to the exact paragraph in a ruling.

The judge warned her to stop interrupting or face contempt charges, but Hopkins kept going. She pointed her finger and again loudly insisted she was not finished with her argument.

At one point, her phone hit the floor and she later said it fell by accident. The judge called the action inappropriate and told her to stop shouting.

Hopkins loudly interrupted and pushed back repeatedly. When the opposing attorney noted the client had warrants, Hopkins interrupted again. The judge appeared stunned and said she would not tolerate the behavior. After multiple warnings, Judge Jackson held Hopkins in direct contempt of court and ended the hearing.

As the judge ordered deputies to take Hopkins into custody, she grew emotional and told the court, “You did not even say that I was in contempt.” She then added, “It’s because I’m a transgender attorney practicing all over this state.”

Judge Jackson responded by throwing her hands up and saying, “I don’t know you from Adam.” Surveillance footage from the courtroom captured the full exchange. Hopkins continued to argue even after the contempt ruling.

Deputies entered the courtroom to detain Hopkins but she immediately resisted. Body cam and courtroom video show him saying, “Do not hurt me, do not hurt me.”

As officers moved in, she repeated, “Do not grab me! Do not grab me! I can’t breathe, I can’t breathe.” She hyperventilated while being brought to the ground and called out for someone to dial 911, which was futile.

During the struggle, Hopkins made another specific request. She shouted, “Get a female officer now! Get a female officer now!” and “I need a female police officer.”

So wait . . . if Hopkins believes she's a male, why then would she demand a female officer? Sounds like her feminine side won the battle with the cops.

Officers continued to secure her as she stayed on the floor. The scene ended with Hopkins in custody. 

She was later held on a $25,000 bond.

This episode lays bare one of the more revealing tensions of our time. Here was a lawyer who, having demanded to be treated according to her declared identity [as a man]  in every professional setting, she suddenly invoked that same identity not as a matter of legal principle but as a shield against the ordinary consequences of courtroom decorum. 

When the rules of the court, applied equally to everyone present, finally caught up with her, the immediate response was not contrition or reflection but the assertion that the judge’s decision must have been motivated by prejudice against her so called transgender status.  

It’s no different than the race card.

Former Democrat State Rep. Forced to Resign: pleads guilty to felony fraud

Ajay Pittman (full name Ayshia K. "Ajay" Pittman) is a former Democratic state representative from Oklahoma but resigned due legal problems, to say the least.

Ajay "Not-so-Squared-Away" represented House District 99 (parts of Oklahoma City) in the Oklahoma House of Representatives from 2018/2019 until her resignation in late January 2026. 

Born on September 10, 1993, she is a member of the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma and the daughter of former state senator Anastasia Pittman. She made Democrat history as the first millennial woman and first second-generation woman to hold that seat, and she focused on issues like health equity, economic development, and community advocacy during her tenure, authoring or co-authoring over 160 pieces of legislation.

Her political career ended abruptly in January 2026 when she resigned and pleaded guilty to felony charges. These stemmed from an investigation by the Oklahoma Attorney General's office and the Oklahoma Ethics Commission. 

This lovely lady was accused of submitting a forged/falsified cashier's check (around $2,500) to the Ethics Commission in an attempt to avoid repaying misused campaign funds. She pleaded guilty to:

Conspiracy to Commit a Felony
Forgery in the Second Degree
Violating the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act

This occurred just before the 2026 legislative session, and the seat became vacant following her resignation.

Pittman has a background in business administration, with professional development from Harvard Kennedy School, and has been involved in advocacy, including as a Senior Advocacy & Policy Strategist in intergovernmental affairs and community impact (per her LinkedIn).

She should have known better. Did I mention she's a Democrat?

Country Crooner Zach Bryan: From Navy Vet to Woke Whiner, Dodging the Bud Light Buzzsaw After ICE-Bashing Ballad Blowup

Oh, sweet land of liberty, where even the twangy troubadours gotta tiptoe around the thin blue line lest they end up crooning for crickets. Enter Zach Bryan, the Oklahoma-raised, Grammy-grabbing country sensation who's now sweating bullets faster than a steer at a branding iron, all because he dipped his cowboy boots into the anti-ICE swamp with a song snippet that's got his red-state fans fixing to rope, throw, and drag him into irrelevance.

Earlier this week over at RedState, Bryan teased fans with a gritty minute of his upcoming ditty "Bad News." And folks, in that hot second, he didn't just step in it, he belly-flopped. Picture this: lines slamming cops as "cocky motherf**k***s" while he wails about the "fading of the red, white and blue."

Fading? Listen up Bryan, with Trump back in the saddle nine months strong, Old Glory's shining brighter than a Fourth of July bottle rocket show. But no, his beef wasn't with the flag, it's the feds at ICE who got his panties in a twist.

Cue the chorus that's got conservatives (you know, the backbone of his beer-swillin' audience) hollerin' for a refund: "ICE gonna bust down your door / Try to build a house no one builds no more / But I got a telephone / Kids are all scared and all alone."

Talk about a tone-deaf hoedown. 

Now the only one's spooked is Bryan himself, scrambling to outrun the stampede of backlash before it turns him into the next Dixie Chicks footnote or Bud Light punchline. Dropping an Instagram Story plea headlined "pls f***n read this," our hero confesses he's "embarrassed" and straight-up "scared" over the uproar. But let's call this what it is: the classic "sorry you got your panties in a bunch" non-apology, where he points fingers at the pitchfork mob instead of his own half-baked haymakers.

"This song is about how much I love this country and everyone in it more than anything. When you hear the rest of the song, you will understand the full context that hits on both sides of the aisle," Bryan wrote. "Everyone using this now as a weapon is only proving how devastatingly divided we all are. We need to find our way back."

Yeah, Zach, maybe start that trail back by not demonizing the badge-wearin' good guys who are yanking kids out of cartel clutches and human-trafficker hellholes. Pot, meet kettle; you're the one slinging sob stories that paint ICE as the big bad wolf instead of the sheepdog. "I served this country, I love this country and the song itself is about all of us coming out of this divided space," Bryan said.

"I wasn't speaking as a politician or some greater-than-thou ahole, just a 29-year-old man who is just as confused as everyone else," he continued. "To see how much s* *t stirred up makes me not only embarrassed but kind of scared."

"Left wing or right wing, we're all one bird and American. To be clear, I'm on neither of these radical sides. To all those disappointed in me on either side of whatever you believe in, just know I'm trying my best too, and we all say things that are misconstrued sometimes."

Fair play, Chief, Bryan did put in his time, logging Navy stints in Bahrain and Djibouti before getting that honorable send-off to chase the honky-tonk dream. And credit where it's due: last year's Nebraska twisters had him out there with a shovel, no cameras crashing the cleanup party. The man's got a heart bigger than his hits sometimes.

Heck, who's to say the full track doesn't flip the script with a pro-ICE bridge, all kumbaya and balanced like a seesaw in a windstorm? Maybe that's the magic in the unreleased reel, bridging the chasm he’s so poetically pining over.

But spare us the "misconstrued" balderdash when your rap sheet reads like a greatest-hits of grievance. Remember that 2023 dust-up where he jawed back at the cops during an obstruction beef? Or how he wagged his finger at fans for "insulting transgender people" right as Bud Light was busy boycotting itself into the bargain bin? And don't forget the show-stopping scold on slinging F-bombs at Sleepy Joe: "I told people if I heard it, I would stop it immediately," Bryan told the New York Times. "Don’t come to my shows and start it."

So no cussin' the commander-in-misery at your gigs, but go ahead and belt out ballads about "cocky motherf*****s" in uniform. That isn't confusion, Zach; that's chasin' the coastal cachet while your heartland herd heads for the exits. Sing your truths, but don't cry foul when the echo bites back.

Dallas ICE Shooting: Who Was Joshua Jahn, the Gunman Behind the Deadly Atatack?

Well here we go again —another grim chapter in the ongoing saga of violence targeting our law enforcement. Sources have fingered 29-year-old Joshua Jahn as the shooter who unleashed hell on a Dallas Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility, leaving one dead, two wounded, and a whole lot of questions.

Here's the rundown: Jahn, allegedly perched on a nearby rooftop, opened fire on the ICE building, spraying bullets "indiscriminately," according to the Department of Homeland Security. 

He didn't stop there. The leftist also targeted an unmarked van in the sally port, where three detainees got caught in the crossfire. One didn't make it. Around 7 a.m., Jahn, an obvious coward, turned the gun on himself, leaving behind a rifle and a chilling message. FBI Director Kash Patel shared a photo on X of rifle ammo clipped together, etched with an "anti-ICE" slogan that says it all. We can thank the leftstream media for the latest violence.

The scene was pure chaos. Law enforcement swarmed the area, and the FBI is now digging into what drove the socialist to this. Records suggest he might've been staying in Durant, Oklahoma, but as Dallas Police Chief David Comeaux told FOX 4, "That's what we are looking into." 

So it's pretty clear that they're still piecing this mess together.

Inscribes bullets a la Tyler Robinson

Attacking ICE facilities isn't new. Just two months ago, miles away in Alvarado, Texas, another ICE facility got ambushed, with 16 people charged after an officer was shot responding to vandalism. Sound like a pattern? FBI Director Patel sure thinks so. "These despicable, politically motivated attacks against law enforcement are not a one-off," he said. "It has to end, and the FBI and our partners will lead these investigative efforts to ensure that those who target our law enforcement are pursued and brought to the fullest extent of justice."

Texas AG Ken Paxton called the Dallas attack "yet another despicable assault on law and order." He laid into the left, saying, "The epidemic of leftist political violence must end. Democrats have fostered an environment of evil, emboldening radicals to kill, steal, and destroy. But we will never surrender." 

The gauntlet has been thrown.

Governor Greg Abbott doubled down, vowing that Texas won't back off immigration enforcement. "The shooter's actions will NOT slow our arrest, detention, & deportation of illegal immigrants," he said. "We will work with ICE & the Dallas Police Department to get to the bottom of the assassin’s motive." 

It isn't just Texas officials sounding the alarm. Vice President JD Vance called for an end to "obsessive attacks" on law enforcement, particularly ICE. 

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem took it further, slamming the rhetoric that paints ICE as the bad guy. "These horrendous killings must serve as a wake-up call to the far left that their rhetoric about ICE has consequences," she wrote on X. "Comparing ICE day in and day out to the Nazi Gestapo, the Secret Police, and slave patrols has consequences. The men and women of ICE are fathers and mothers, sons and daughters. They get up every morning to try and make our communities safer."

Former FBI special agent Nicole Parker broke it all down on Fox News' The Faulkner Focus, giving the latest on this tragedy. Meanwhile, the investigation is just getting started, and the nation is watching. One thing is clear: this isn't just about one shooter or one rooftop. It's about a deeper divide, and it's getting uglier by the day.

What's your prognosis for the nation?

Alabama Supreme Court will allow new execution method for inmate who murderer

An Alabama Supreme Court comprised of all Republicans was divided Wednesday as to whether an inmate would be executed with nitrogen gas to carry out his death sentence.

Well it turns out in a 6-2 decision that this method will be allowed and Kenneth Eugene Smith will be the first to meet his Maker this way.

Although the order did not specify the execution method, the Alabama attorney general indicated in filings with the court that it intends to use nitrogen to put Smith to death. The exact date of the execution will be set later by Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey.

Smith was one of two men convicted in the 1988 murder-for-hire killing of Elizabeth Sennett in Colbert County.

Alabama, Mississippi and Oklahoma are states that had authorized nitrogen hypoxia as an execution method but Alabama will likely be the first to use it if the execution goes through. However, there will probably be further litigation over this new execution method.

"Elizabeth Sennett's family has waited an unconscionable 35 years to see justice served. Today, the Alabama Supreme Court cleared the way for Kenneth Eugene Smith to be executed by nitrogen hypoxia," Alabama Attorney General Steve Marshall wrote. "Though the wait has been far too long, I am grateful that our capital litigators have nearly gotten this case to the finish line."

An attorney for Smith did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

Lawyers for Smith had urged the court to reject the execution request, perhaps because it's unsafe for Smith.

"The state seeks to make Mr. Smith the test subject for the first ever attempted execution by an untested and only recently released protocol for executing condemned people by the novel method of nitrogen hypoxia," Smith’s attorneys wrote in a September court filing.

I say whatever works.

Under the proposed method, the inmate would be forced to breathe only nitrogen, depriving them of oxygen needed to maintain bodily functions and causing them to die. Nitrogen is mixed with oxygen in our atmosphere and comprises 78% of the air we breathe. 

While some say using nitrogen to kill a scumbag like Smith would be painless, others say it might not be and he should be able to die comfortably, like the former VA Gov. Ralph Northam said, as he believes that unwanted newborns should be made to feel comfortable before the mother decides to kill him or her.

So Smith can be a ground-breaker and get his name into the history books--that would be his only good accomplishment it seems.

The state unsuccessfully attempted to put Smith to death by lethal injection last year. The Alabama Department of Corrections called off the execution when the execution team could not get the required two intravenous lines connected to Smith. But at least they did get the isopropyl alcohol to sterilize the needle to avoid infection.

Smith's attorneys previously accused the state of trying to move Smith to "the front of the line" for a nitrogen execution in order to moot Smith’s lawsuit challenging lethal injection procedures, but there was no line.

Chief Justice Tom Parker and Justice Greg Cook dissented in Wednesday's decision.

Smith was one of two scumcrumpets who were each paid $1,000 to kill Ms. Sennett on behalf of her pastor husband, who was deeply in debt and wanted to collect on insurance, for God's sake. The pastor killed himself the following week and likely never made it to the promised land.

Black man charged with hate crime for allegedly shooting 2 strangers execution style, because they were white

A black man in Tulsa, Oklahoma allegedly shot and killed two white men in an apparent execution-style murder last month and law enforcement authorities say that it was a racially motivated hate crime.

The shooter, Carlton Gilford, a homeless person, or an undomiciled individual, shot two in the back of the head at two different locations on April 18th, the Tulsa PD reported to Fox News.

The victim Lundin Hathcock, 35, was shot around 9:40 a.m. at the Rudisill Library, and the other man killed was James McDaniel, 55, was shot at a QuikTrip convenience store. 

Tulsa County District Attorney Steve Kunzweiler said that he believes the evidence suggests the homeless man shot both men because they were white, and he has been charged with a hate crime for his alleged killings.

“The allegation in this charge is that race or color played a role in these shootings,” Kunzweiler told Newsweek. “Based upon the investigation, we have reason to believe that race played a role in the homicides. That evidence will be presented in front of a judge or jury. Mr. Gilford has the presumption of innocence until proven guilty by a judge or jury.”

The suspect allegedly walked up behind Hathcock while he was sitting at a desk and shot him in the back of the head. Hathcock was rushed to a hospital where he later died. Gilford then allegedly went to the nearby convenience store and shot McDaniel in the same manner before firing another shot at him after he fell to the ground. McDaniel died at the scene.

It is believed the gun that Gilford used was obtained illegally.

Authorities said that surveillance footage from the QuikTrip store showed Gilford firing at a security guard and another person outside the store. The suspect was detained after officers arrived at the scene and the shooter allegedly admitted to killing the two white men, who he did not know personally.

“The investigation into the two deadly shootings is ongoing at this time and Detectives are still working to learn a motive,” the Tulsa Police Department said in a statement.

Gilford was charged with two counts of shooting with intent to kill, and one count of malicious intimidation or harassment, a hate crime by Oklahoma standards. The suspect is being held without bond and is scheduled for court on June 23rd. 

It is not known whether any progressives such as Vice President Kamala Harris, are attempting to elicit GoFundMe donations to secure his release.

House GOP considering expunging Trump's impeachment from the record

A day didn't go by after Trump took his oath of office that the Democrats did not had the main goal of impeaching him. Never mind that the reasons turned out to be lies but the legacy media supported the lies and the Department of Justice and the FBI went after him.

But all hope for the Left came crashing down after the Robert Mueller 22-month investigation ended in 2019 with the failure to find something to impeach him with.

Plan B came to pass when the Left tried to imply that a phone call between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was about Trump asking him to investigate the Biden family business dealings with Ukraine. So there was a sham inquiry and Trump was impeached by the House.

Plan C came one week after the January 6, 2021 Capitol incursion, the House voted to impeach Trump a second time over his alleged role in what Democrats insist to this day was an “insurrection.”

Sadly for the Jackass party, this impeachment trial ended the same way as Trump was acquitted by the Senate.

However, The Washington Times reports that the House Republicans are considering expunging Trump’s impeachments from the record. Heads on the Left will explode. Adam Schiff will schiff a brick.

When asked if he'd be willing to bring such legislation to the floor, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy said, “We’d look at it. … When you find that the final information of the Russia document is all a lie, and we watch what he went through, I would understand why members would want to bring that forward.”

According to The Times, 42 Republicans are on board with the idea, including House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (NY). She got behind the resolution to exonerate Trump, but the Democrats, of course, refused to vote on it when the Democrats had full control of Congress. So even if Trump was exonerated due to the fact that these allegations were all lies, the Left hates him enough to allow the record to stand.

But now that Republicans control the House, it’s a real possibility.

Rep. Andrew Clyde of Georgia called both impeachments “inappropriate” and said he would “certainly be interested” in wiping them off the books. Rep. Pat Fallon of Texas told the Times he was “definitely interested.”

The lead sponsor of the resolution was then-Rep. Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma, who won his Senate race in November. Mullin had previously spearheaded a resolution to expunge the first impeachment as well.

However, some Republicans are weasels and are less ready to support expunging the record. Rep. Dan Bishop (NC) said,  “I tend to think we’ve got plenty to focus on looking through the front windshield, rather than the back.”

Of course, if it was Bishop in the rearview mirror with impeachment on his resume, he would be singing a different tune.

While the expungement of Trump’s impeachments would be huuugely demoralizing for the Democrats, with only 20 percent of the Republican conference supporting the resolution, it isn't going to be enough to get it to fly. In order to clear the record, an almost unanimous backing by the GOP House would be needed but too many of them are RINOs.

Another girl assaulted by trans student in HS bathroom: media mum

A male dressed as a woman got angry at a girl for not paying him attention. He followed her into the girls bathroom [where he is allowed to go because he wears girly things while still sporting a d**k] and asked her if she "wanted to fight." 

He proceeded to attack her with “clenched fists, pulled her hair and threw her on the ground.” A witness said the boy kicked the girl in the head and twice in the back. The witness tried to stop the male attacker but was punched in the face twice, resulting in a possible concussion.

CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, the NY Times and Washington Post forgot to report much about this story because of some reason they forgot to mention. The Washington Stand said that “no media outlet covered the altercation” that occurred in October until “the website Reduxx got a copy of the police report on December 12.”

“During the course of the investigation, it was discovered that one of the students involved in the fight is transgender and was using the women's restroom,” a spokesperson for the school wrote. 

The boy was new to the school and the faculty didn't know he had a penis, testosterone and other male attributes.

However, according to the Stand, Oklahoma Secretary of Education Ryan Walters (R) has cracked down on the trans bathroom policies in order to help prevent situations like this from happening again.

According to Walters, the attack is “unacceptable and will not be tolerated in the state of Oklahoma.” Other attacks that are unacceptable are: boys who identify as boys beating up on girls who identify as girls, transgender boys, who are really girls, being beaten up by transgender girls who are really boys, and gangs who beat up on individuals for their lunch money.

In a video on Twitter, Walters said that he would launch a state-level investigation about the high school where the attack took place and would require public schools in Oklahoma to keep bathroom policies transparent, but not the bathrooms themselves because that would be an invasion of privacy.

The Oklahoma governor and legislature passed a bill banning boys from going into girls' bathrooms to prevent these kinds of situations.

The pseudo-chick who attacked the girl has been charged with assault and battery, and disorderly conduct.

It's time for the woke who don't see the problem they've created, to remove their heads from their nether regions.

OK requires "biological sex affidavit" to protect women's sports

Lia Thomas: a man with a plan

Student athletes in Oklahoma public schools are now required to complete a "biological sex affidavit" to determine their eligibility in sports competition. This comes after Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt signed the “Save Women’s Sports Act” into law in March of this year. 

The law specifies that  sports teams are to be based on the athletes' biological sex assigned at birth, rather than their gender dysphoria and thus their delusion they are members of the opposite sex and are in the wrong body. The new requirement applies from kindergarten through college.

“When it comes to sports and athletics, girls should compete against girls. Boys should compete against boys,” Gov. Stitt said. “And let’s be very clear — that’s all this bill says.” 

It says nothing about men dressed as sexualized women, aka drag queens, grooming young children who sit in their laps as they read LGBTQ+1etc. books to them in public libraries, for example.

Erin Mason, executive director at the abortion and reproductive rights organization Reproaction, shared on Thursday an affidavit from Woodall Public School in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, on her social media page, which began making news headlines over the weekend.

“Do you understand what is happening? This has nothing to do with encouraging girls to be athletes,” Woodall said. “This is totalitarianism. It is the white nationalist agenda. The anti-LGBTQ agenda. The anti-abortion agenda. It is all the same agenda.”

Actually, she's correct. It has nothing to do with encouraging girls to be athletes--it has to do with allowing them to compete fairly against other girls, rather than boys, and encourage them to do their best and not drop out because of the unfair advantage biological boys/men have in sports involving strength, speed, size and lung capacity.

Ginger Knight, superintendent at Woodall Public Schools, confirmed via email to NBC "News" that state law requires districts to have students complete the form if they want to participate in athletics.

Oklahoma is the first state requiring an affidavit attesting to the student-athlete's biological sex. Athletes under 18 can have their parent or guardian sign the affidavit, but once the student turns 18 years old, they must sign the affidavit themselves, and must do so before each school year, thus eliminating "girls" with penises from competing against actual girls.

Other Oklahoma public schools have begun creating similar forms for students looking to participate in sports.

“We’re going to have to do this — we’re going to abide by the law,” Pat Dodson, superintendent of Grove Public Schools, told KOAM News Now. “But I do think it’s just a little bit too much, and it’s an overreach on behalf of our legislators.”

It's obvious that Pat Dodson [is it Patrick or Patricia?] doesn't have a daughter athlete who lost a college wrestling scholarship to a dude. 

Nina Short, a co-founder of Four-States Youth For Equality, told KOAM News Now that the bill defies federal law.

“Not only are they not accepted and safe at home, but they go to school, and they’re not safe or accepted there,” Short said. “And that just further shows that they’re not accepted that they are discriminated against.”

And the danger to not being accepted is worse than having your safe space defiled with graffiti.   

“Title IX was put in place, and it does not allow sexual discrimination of any kind,” Short added.

Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona told ESPN he believes in local and state control.

However, the department has “a responsibility to protect the civil rights of students, and if we feel the civil rights are being violated, we will act.” However, he was not speaking about the civil rights of female athletes who have been screwed out of scholarships and podium trips.

OK Senator unveils "Kyle's Law" bill to protect from "malicious prosecution" in cases of self-defense

State Sen. Nathan Dahm

The new "victim class" is not black, brown, female or indigenous--it's white, and primarily men. Victimization is what happened to Kyle Rittenhouse, a white man who, last year at the age of 17, went to the riots and protests in Kenosha, Wisconsin with a medical bag to render aid, and an AR-15 to protect himself from the Black Lives Matter rioters. You probably know he was being chased by the crazed rioters, shot and killed 2 who tried to kill him, and wounded a third who was aiming a handgun at him before Kyle pulled the trigger and shot the guy through his arm.

Remember, Kyle is white. The three thugs he shot were white. But somehow BLM tried to make the public believe that somehow this had to do with racism, not self defense. 

The video evidence showing how Kyle was attacked and fighting to stay alive was overwhelming. The fact that the prosecution withheld some evidence and made idiotic blunders that should have gotten them disbarred was also evident.

But the woke public wanted Rittenhouse's head on a platter. 

They did not get their way and thankfully, Kyle was totally acquitted of all charges.

Oklahoma state Sen. Nathan Dahm (R--of course) presented his bill just days after the trial ended in which Rittenhouse was acquitted of two counts of murder in the first-degree, one count of attempted first-degree murder, one count of attempted first-degree murder, and two additional serious felonies.

The charges against Rittenhouse came less than two days after he alleged that he fired on protesters in Kenosha last August. The jury saw it as self-defense, [because it obviously was self defense] and acquitted him.

State Senator Nathan Dahm announced on Tuesday plans to file SB 1120 to protect Oklahomans and ensure that using self-defense does not result in being criminally charged and taken to trial for "political reasons." And if you don't believe this case was politically motivated, you might be a leftist.

The bill, which is also called "Kyle's law," would permit "victims of malicious prosecution would be able to receive compensation for expenses and damages."

In Kyle Rittenhouse's case, he should collect several tons of hundred dollar bills from news organization that defamed him, labeling him a "white supremacist," and implying that he was guilty even before the trial got under way. CNN and MSNBC might see Rittenhouse as their newest and youngest owner after he sues them. 

Then there's Joy Reid and the entire crew of idiots on those networks who stand to lose a lawsuit if Rittenhouse goes forward with a lawsuit against them. 

The biggest idiot, by far, is our idiot banana tree president, Joe Biden, who during his presidential campaign, had an advertisement that showed a photo of Rittenhouse and clearly implied that he is a white supremacist. But even if Biden were to lose a lawsuit, he has the support of China to finance the cost.

If the Dahm bill becomes a law, Oklahomans would receive "fair and just compensation" if they are charged with murder and found not guilty because they acted in self-defense. In such cases, Oklahoma would be obligated to "reimburse the defendant for all reasonable costs, including loss of wages, legal fees incurred, and other expenses involved in their defense," a press release explained.

The press release went on:

SB 1120 further states that in order to support a claim of malicious prosecution, the claimant must establish that the prosecution was instituted or instigated by the prosecutor and was without probable cause; that the prosecution had legally and finally been terminated in favor of the claimant; and that as a result of the criminal prosecution, the claimant sustained injury.

Malice may be established if the motive for the prosecution was something other than a desire to bring an offender to justice, or that it was one with ill will or hatred, or willfully done in a wanton or oppressive manner and in conscious disregard of the claimant's rights. Under the legislation, a prosecutor may be held personally liable to a claimant if malicious prosecution is established.

In his statement, Dahm said lawmakers have a duty to protect their constituents from politically motivated prosecution. "Kyle Rittenhouse should never have been charged. The video evidence from early on showed it was lawful self-defense." 

"It is our duty to protect the rights of the people we represent, and the right to self-defense is paramount. This bill will ensure that what happened to Kyle Rittenhouse cannot happen to the people of Oklahoma," he explained.

And yet there are people on the Left who want Kyle Rittenhouse in jail, clearly for their political ideology. The ones with the loudest voices are those who have armed protection and are never directly affected by these type of incidents.

Vote them out and that would be "change you can believe in."

Federal judge stops Biden administration from blocking new oil and gas drilling leases

A federal judge in Louisiana, Terry A. Doughty has stopped the socialist Biden administration on Tuesday from blocking new gas and oil drilling leases on federal land, thus putting a damper on Biden's extreme left environmental agenda that would obviously harm American energy workers. Doughty issued a preliminary injunction in the case.

“Judge Terry A. Doughty of the U.S. District Court in Monroe said the administration doesn’t have the legal right to stop leasing federal territory for oil-and-gas production without approval from Congress,” The Wall Street Journal reported. The WSJ added that Doughty noted that “states suing the federal government—largely southern and coastal states—will be harmed immediately as the pause prevents them from collecting lease bids and bonuses from oil-and-gas prospectors.”

Thirteen states in all sued the Biden administration over its radical and anti-American proposal: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah and West Virginia.

The court's decision was a clear setback for Biden, who in his total lack of wisdom ordered suspension of new leases for fossil fuel development on public lands and waters in January while a review of the permitting process was carried out. He also halted work on the Keystone Pipeline, which put thousands of American workers out of a job while allowing Russia to be the sole providers of energy to Germany with their Nord Stream 2 pipeline. 

Biden has never once gotten a foreign policy idea correct and he isn't planning on ruining his record of incompetence.

The suspension — which did not affect existing drilling permits — fulfilled an election pledge and marked the president’s most significant move against the energy sector after he campaigned on a “transition away from oil.”

“The omission of any rational explanation in cancelling the lease sales, and in enacting the Pause, results in this Court ruling that Plaintiff States also have a substantial likelihood of success on the merits of this claim,” Doughty wrote. “Millions and possibly billions of dollars are at stake. Plaintiff states have a reliance interest in the proceeds derived from offshore and on land oil and gas lease sales.

Judge Doughty added, “Local government funding, jobs for Plaintiff State workers, and funds for the restoration of Louisiana’s Coastline are at stake.”

Officials who support American energy praised the decision as a victory for the rule of law, workers, and American citizens.

Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) said the ruling was “great news for Louisiana energy workers and their families!”

Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry said the ruling was “a major win for the Constitution, for workers employed in the oil and gas industry and for all Americans who have felt pain at the pump.”

Rep. Jody Arrington (R-TX) responded to the news by saying that the ruling could “save a million jobs and preserve a safe and affordable supply of energy for all Americans.”

The left is coming for your money, your jobs and your preferred transportation.

Joke of the Day: California is considering a $500 to $1000 tax on the purchases of new, gas-driven vehicles to dissuade their purchase in lieu of electric cars. And if you think it will stop there and not affect older vehicles in the future, you're smoking something skunky.

State Dept Spox says cops are the biggest threat to U.S. security

Jalina Porter is the new deputy mouthpiece of the State Department and could easily be mistaken for a BLM or Antifa member rather than someone who stands for law and order. 

In a Facebook posting dating back to Sept. 20, 2016, Porter said that the "largest threat to U.S. national security are U.S cops," adding, "Not ISIS, not Russian hackers, not anyone or anything else." [H/T Washington Free Beacon]

Porter's reference was in response to a video  released of Terence Crutcher, an unarmed Black man who, according to police, abandoned his vehicle in the middle of the street. He began walking toward police with his hands in his pockets, refused to show his hands, as he kept walking as police ordered him to stop. He refused to comply and was shot. A quantity of PCP was found in his SUV after the incident.

Autopsy revealed that Crutcher had "acute phencyclidine (PCP) intoxication" at the time of the shooting, a total of 96 nanograms per milliliter in his blood, as well as tenocyclidine (TCP), a psycho-stimulant and hallucinogen which is more potent than PCP, was present.

The officer involved in the shooting, Betty Shelby was tried and found not guilty.

Obviously, the incident was horrible, but when making a political point, it's always easier to blame the police officer rather than the person who resisted arrest or refused to comply with police.

Porter was not at the scene nor at the trial of Shelby, but posted:

 "An unarmed Black man takes a knee for justice, bigots riot. An unarmed black man (with his hands raised) takes a bullet and dies, these same bigots are silent. Explain this to me, please."

It apparently was not obvious to the police at the scene that Crutcher was unarmed when he refused to comply with them and posed a threat as he approached. We don't know what he was thinking at the time, and yes, he was apparently high on drugs, but what are cops supposed to do when they believe their lives are being threatened?

Porter, a former cheerleader for the NFL's Oakland Raiders and NBA's Washington Wizards, was also a top aide in the congressional office of Cedric Richmond, now Biden's White House advisor. She also worked for the left-leaning Truman National Security Project where Hunter Biden once worked.

"If y’all don’t wake up and rise up to this truth, the genocide against Blacks in America will continue until we are near extinct," she wrote. 

The State Department had no comment.

Oklahoma mayor may be recalled after signatures to do so are verified

Norman, OK -- Democrat Mayor Breaa Clark may be recalled as a group that launched an effort to get rid of her claims to have enough signatures on a petition to do so after she slashed the police department's funding and has mandated the use of masks in public.

Clark had no comment Friday regarding the recall effort in a vote January, according to the Oklahoman.

The group known as Unite Norman gathered signatures for weeks and ended with 20,560 while needing at least 18,124.

"What we just did was historic," Unite Norman co-founder Russell Smith told supporters outside City Hall.

"It's about the issues here in this town,” he said. “It's about taking our town back. It's about not having radicals in power. It's about centering the shift."

It's about normalcy.

The signatures were submitted to Norman City Clerk Brenda Hall for verification.

The paper reported that Clark was withholding comment until the signatures were verified.

"In the meantime, I will continue to focus on doing my job instead of worrying about losing my job," Clark said, according to the paper.

The petition also included four members of the Norman City Council, including one who has since resigned.

Of the other three, the group said it had enough signatures to recall one City Council member, Alison Petrone, but not the other two, Kate Bierman and Stephen Holman.

Hopefully, the sentiments of the town reflect those of the nation as Biden and Harris plan to attempt making the wearing of face masks mandatory, in spite of it being unconstitutional, as well as making severe cuts to law enforcement across the nation. If this is the case, these two leftists will not get elected.

Assoc. Press defends the Qur'an, attacks Okla. lawmaker for asking related questions

"Shut up and take it like a good wife"

Tulsa, OK -- It's all in how you word what you write as to how the public may process it.

An Associated Press' March 4, 2017 headline reads: "Oklahoma lawmaker asks Muslims: 'Do you beat your wife?'"

My headline phrases the article somewhat differently but factually correct. In the Qur'an (as well as other books of Islamic scripture) men are allowed to beat their wives when they disobey: 

"Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them." --Qur'an 4:34

Muhammad "struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?" --Aisha (Sahih Muslim 2127)

By the way, Aisha was Muhammad's child bride who he married when she was 6 and he 53. The marriage was consummated when Aisha reached the ripe old age of 9. 

Anyway, this Oklahoma Rep. John Bennett, distributed a questionnaire last week as the Oklahoma chapter of CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) kicked off its annual Muslim Day at the Capitol.

Rep. Bennett told Muslims who wished to meet with him to fill out a form his office provided that bluntly asked: "Do you beat your wife?" Whether they would denounce terror groups such as Hezbollah and Hamas. And if they believe that former Muslims who leave the religion should be punished for leaving. 

All of those questions, except for the one referring to the terrorist groups specifically, deal directly with Sharia--or Islamic law. 

CAIR, an un-indicted co-conspirator with the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) in the Holy Land Foundation trial that dealt with the MB funding terrorist organizations, said the form contained "hateful, bigoted questions."

I fail to see how hatred has anything to do with trying to determine if specific women are in danger, or if a person supports terrorism. The only hatred in these cases are on the shoulders of the person answering the questions. 

Bigotry has to do with the intolerance of those with different opinions. That sums up the religion of Islam in many forms of its practice, such as killing apostates, or those who leave Islam. Those people are to be killed, according to Muhammad.

Now that's bigotry.

It is high time we stop pretending Islam is not a problem, at least in its extreme form.

Charlotte continues to riot

Charlotte, N.C. -- The scene is ugly with angry people who appear to care more about creating anarchy and looting than the actually protesting for a cause. These are not protests--when windows are smashed and businesses are looted, that's a riot.

And so we have another night in Charlotte where the mob is out of hand. A white man beaten and dragged by the miscreants and the brother of Keith Lamont Scott having his 15 minutes of fame as he tells the media that all white people are "devils." 

I understand his pain, but I condemn his racism. 

We've reached a point where it's acceptable for blacks to express racism and for liberals to condemn conservatives with more anger directed at them for wanting better vetting for refugees than they express over terror attacks and rapes by those refugees.

Officials in Charlotte appealed for calm and it did little to stop the rioting. Police made 44 arrests and one civilian was shot and later died. Police say it was a rioter who shot him and the rioters say it was a cop.

A man identified as Scott's brother said, "Just know that all white people are f****** devils, all white cops are f****** devils and white people."

But the cop who shot Scott was also black.

Al Race-Baiter Sharpton said that black cops are different toward black people, implying that black cops are racist against black people. Sharpton is about as 'sharp' as a puddle.  

North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory declared a state of emergency and called in the National Guard after the Charlotte police chief called for additional help.

Sean Hannity was so concerned about the rioting that he only devoted 47 minutes of his show to praise Donald Trump.

"The events that we saw last night are not the Charlotte I know and love," said Mayor Jennifer Roberts at a news conference. "They are not reflective of our community, of the deep-seated traditions we have of collaboration and peace." She called for a "full, transparent investigation" as opposed to a Comey-style FBI type of investigation.

Police Chief Kerr Putney, an African-American, would not commit to releasing video of the incident to the public, which is probably wise.

The shooting that took place in Tulsa, OK was a different scenario: a white, female cop shot an unarmed black man and now she is up on charges. The Charlotte shooting allegedly involved an armed man. But when it suits their agenda, groups like Black Lives Matter and the New Black Panthers lump them in together to give them an excuse to riot, loot and harm innocent people.

The country is on the road to perdition if things don't change.

PC is Okay in OK, but not for me

Well no surprises here--authorities, as I predicted, called the jihadist beheading, Islamic slogan-shouting, with previous attempts by the killer to convert co-workers to Islam, "workplace violence." Terrorism experts, and anyone who has read even a few chapters in the Koran are upset with this PC balderdash. It's jihad, baby, and there is no doubt about it.

One of the first reports by local OK media said that Alton Nolen sliced at Colleen Hufford's neck so hard it practically decapitated her. But the true story is that this scum receptacle stabbed her several times and then beheaded the 54 year old Vaughan Foods worker.

The FBI is reviewing Nolen's Facebook page which contains anti-American rants under Islamic name, "Jah'Keem Israel." The page also has photos of Osama bin Laden and a photo of the 911 terror attacks.

Nolen also has a paraphrased quote from the Koran (8:12) "I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their fingertips off them." Workplace violence?

Colin Clark, a terrorism expert told Fox News (Fox and Friends, Saturday) that the beheading was an act of terrorism and should be characterized as such. 

What was Colin's first clue--the attempt at conversion first, followed by killing when his co-workers refused? It's all in their "Bad Book" and should be read by all of us who want to understand the enemy. Sure, it isn't all Muslims who want the "unbelievers" dead, but it's seriously suicidal to believe that the terrorist mindset and actors are a tiny minority of the Muslim population. 

And those Islamists who do not want to kill us still want the world to follow sharia law. But sharia law says that those of us who refuse to convert must pay a heavy tax to Muslims---the jizya. If we refuse to pay, then it's their religious duty to kill us. Even if we go along with their Seventh Century nonsense, women are treated like crap, Jews are treated worse than crap, and the rest of us must feel 'subdued' by our Muslim benefactors.

Let's face it; we have a president who is more than simply sympathetic to Islam--he downright bows to it (see Abdullah, King, Saudi Arabia, Obama, Barack Hussein, tongue-to-sandals). Islam is here but it's going to look different in the future if we continue to be PC.

If you don't believe me, just ask the French and the Londoners.

Jihad Oklahoma

Moore Oklahoma: Another beheading has taken place, but this time it's in the homeland. An Oklahoma man who was fired from his job at a food processing plant beheaded a female worker and stabbed another until a company official shot him several times with a legal handgun. Thanks to the Second Amendment, the second victim survived.

Alton Nolen, 30 years old, tried to convert others at his work place to the religion of peace, but had no takers, so he killed one woman, attempted to kill another, and only Allah knows how many more he would have killed if he had not been stopped.

What happened according to the police is that Nolen randomly attacked these two women employees in front of Vaughan Foods, where he had been fired from very recently. He beheaded Colleen Hufford, a 54 year old woman who had lost her home in the infamous tornado that devastated Moore, Oklahoma last year. 

Nolen then went after Traci Johnson, 43, and stabbed her multiple times. Then former CEO of Vaughan Foods and Oklahoma County reserve deputy Mark Vaughan arrived on the scene and shot Nolen several times, wounding him.

Ms. Johnson is in stable condition and Nolen is expected to survive his gunshot wounds. Vaughan should have squeezed the trigger slowly.

It appears that Nolen has a rather "extensive" criminal record which includes "several drug charges" and assault and battery against a cop. The local radio station, KFOR, spoke with an Islamic community leader who said he didn't know Alton Nolen and, gosh, he couldn't imagine where the jihadist learned his Islamic beliefs. Perhaps this Islamic  community leader needs a refresher in the Koran and Haditha. He told KFOR that the attack is "sickening."

Employees at Vaughan Foods told police that Nolen tried to convert them to Islam. He has not been charged yet because he is still unconscious.

Mark Vaughan

It was obvious to people on the scene that Nolen wasn't going to stop killing folks if he wasn't stopped in the attack. He shouted Islamic slogans while he killed Ms. Hufford. My guess is he shouted "Allahu Akbar!" for starters.

Moore police have asked the FBI to help in the investigation and look into Nolen's background and authorities still have no idea of what charges will be filed. I suspect workplace violence is the old stand by in cases of domestic terrorism. 

The PC police are expected to arrive on the scene at any moment.

Capital Punishment: Getting Back What You Gave

She was just a month out of high school when he killed her. He shot her once with a shotgun, then the gun jammed. She lay bleeding and writhing in pain on the ground as he cleared the jam and shot her again. But she wasn't dead. He told his 17 year old cousin and 26 year old buddy to bury her anyway.

So they buried her alive.

I could go into great detail about the entire crime, but it isn't necessary. A young girl in Oklahoma was brutally murdered, her friend repeatedly raped, and the young father they went to visit was beaten with his 9 month old son nearby. That basically sums it all up.

The shooter was Clayton Lockett, age 38. He was to be executed on Tuesday night in Oklahoma, in a double execution. The other piece of human excrement, Charles Warner, raped and killed an 11 month old girl back in 1997. He was to go second.

Lockett had been convicted of murder, rape, kidnapping, assault and battery, burglary and robbery. I believe his neighbors said "he seemed like a nice, quiet guy; never said a bad word to nobody."

But the lethal injection didn't work as planned. Poor Lockett writhed in pain as he lay strapped to the gurney. He gasped for air, not unlike Stephanie Nieman, as shocked reporters and others looked on. He eventually succumbed to a heart attack after being removed from the viewing room. The entire incident took about 30 minutes from the time he was sedated, to the time he entered hell. 

Unfortunately, the Charles Warner execution was called off for 14 days. He will have a lot on his mind for those two weeks, I suppose.

I think that executions should be humane and I don't condone the fact that it went south. But I'm okay that justice was served in the end. Perhaps it is humane to do what we do to horses who have broken their leg--a bullet to the brain. It's fast and humane, and it works every time. And you don't need to disinfect the injection site.

There will always be those who are against capital punishment no matter what. I respect that, because, while I believe in capital punishment, I also understand the sanctity of human life. But I just wonder how those who oppose the death penalty would honestly feel if their child was brutally murdered.

Capital punishment is a deterrent. If you disagree, please  cite me one case where the murderer who received it, killed again.

In my latest novel, a New York reporter is taken hostage by terrorists. If POTUS refuses to release 3 Gitmo jihadists, the reporter will die in 24 hours—they will behead him and show it on the Internet. There is only one way out but the clock is ticking . . .
