The Corruption of Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt & Friends.

Oklahoma gave a Florida company a no-bid contract to distribute $18 million in pandemic relief money as a test-run for school vouchers. Now federal investigators are eyeing the deal.

From the start, the strategy led to a lack of oversight on purchases, possibly violating the terms of the federal grant and state purchasing requirements, according to federal regulators.

While most parents spent the money on educational supplies, Oklahoma Watch and The Frontier found nearly half a million dollars in questionable purchases. The news organizations found at least 548 TVs purchased through ClassWallet worth $191,000.

Families also bought pressure washers, car stereo equipment, coffee makers, exercise gear and smart watches.

ClassWallet blamed the state for the lack of scrutiny over purchases.

ICYMI: S5:E15 (OK SB615 - No Confidential Counseling for Gay/Trans Kids)

This week on Across the Desk, Kit talks about the continued attack by the GOP upon the LBGTQ American community as Oklahoma passed into law Senate Bill 615. A bill that would force teachers and councilors to out a LBGTQ youth to their parents. Forcing those youth who are already uncertain about their sexuality to forgo seeking counseling, and thereby doing more harm to LBGTQ youth... But that may actually be the plan... As we watch Conservatives use the force of BIG GOVERNMENT to harm those Americans they just do not like...
