- π― Oklahoma's State Superintendent, Ryan Walters, is reportedly under investigation after allegations of nude adult content appearing on his computer and mirrored onto a TV during an Oklahoma State Board of Education executive session.
- π‘ The incident allegedly occurred while board members were discussing sensitive issues, including teacher licensing and a plan to test teachers from "liberal states" for "woke ideas."
Witness Accounts
- π Board members Ryan Deathridge and Becky Carson reported seeing the explicit images on Walters' office television.
- β οΈ Becky Carson described her shock and disbelief, initially questioning if the images were of naked women, then identifying them as explicit content, and demanding the TV be turned off.
- π£οΈ Ryan Deathridge stated that Walters, whose back was to the screen, did not realize the content was playing until alerted and did not apologize or offer an explanation after turning it off.
Walters' Denial and Defense
- π« Ryan Walters has denied the allegations, calling them "categorically false" and a "politically motivated attack" by a "broken establishment."
- π‘οΈ He claims to have no knowledge of what was on the TV screen and suggests the accusations are a "witch hunt" aimed at discrediting his efforts to reform education in Oklahoma.
- π£οΈ Walters' social media post framed the accusations as an attack on the values of Oklahomans, rather than on him personally.
Hypocrisy and Skepticism
- π Critics, including Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, highlighted the hypocrisy of Walters, a vocal critic of pornography and advocate for bringing the Bible into schools, allegedly being involved in such an incident.
- π€ The hosts expressed skepticism about Walters' denial, particularly his use of the term "alleged incident" and his lack of a strong, immediate reaction to the alleged display of pornography.
- π§ State Representative Dick Low has reportedly stated he has "no question that this is true," despite not knowing all the facts, and an inquiry has been launched by the Office of Management and Enterprise Services.
