Across the Desk - S7:E9 (Lesson #1 of Conservative Cowardice & the Censure of Mauree Turner)

Last edited Sun Mar 12, 2023, 11:31 AM - Edit history (1)

This week on Across the Desk, Kit talks about the Censure of state Legislator, Mauree Turner (D), who identifies as black, Muslim, and non-binary using the pronouns They/Them. Well, they have been formally censured in the Oklahoma House of Representatives for 'harboring a fugitive', but there is so much more to the story that that.. And when you look at the antics of (R)s who have actually broken the law, two (R)s are looking at felony charges! And another who (Jay Stegall) was 'talked to' about threatening the Mayor of Yukon 3 years ago and using the power of his office to coerce the City Council. That was the extent of his 'censure'.. Which reeks of hypocrisy and power grabbing by an already power corrupted and power hungry GOP....
