DeSantis mini me State Superintendent in Oklahoma is one to watch out for!

A post he retweeted or retiktoked (whatever) may be causing bomb threats to Union Public Schools. They are certainly happening and this guy is wacko!
He allowed first religious charter school in the nation and was recently in the news for that. Only been on the job 8 months and sadly was elected.

The linked story details both. Basically he is DeSantis in OK public schools. OMG. This shit happening on so many fronts is mind boggling and beyond.

Oklahoma Democrats are calling for an impeachment probe of Ryan Walters, the state’s superintendent of public instruction, citing a range of recent issues, including bomb threats against a school district following one of Walters’ provocative social media posts.

In a statement Tuesday, state House Democrats said they’ve made a formal request to the GOP speaker to set up a bipartisan committee to investigate whether there’s sufficient evidence to impeach Walters. The Democratic caucus cited Walters’ “consistent pattern of inflammatory language aimed at our public education teachers, outright lies and targeted attacks on local control.”
