OKLAHOMA STATE EDUCATION SUPERINTENDENT MY ASS, MAGA HITMAN IS MORE LIKE

 

OKLAHOMA STATE EDUCATION SUPERINTENDENT MY ASS

 MAGA HITMAN IS MORE LIKE 

In the world of education, there are those who prioritize the success of their students above all else. And then there's Oklahoma State Education Superintendent Ryan Walters, who seems to prioritize something else entirely: being a MAGA hitman.

Yes, you read that right. According to some reports, Walters has been using his position as superintendent to push a political agenda rather than focusing on what's best for the students of Oklahoma. Instead of working to improve the quality of education in the state, he's been busy promoting a certain political ideology.

Now, I don't know about you, but when I think of a superintendent, I picture someone who spends their days making sure that students have access to the best possible resources and opportunities. But apparently, Walters has a different idea of what his job entails. Instead of worrying about things like teacher retention rates or student achievement, he's been busy trying to turn Oklahoma into a MAGA stronghold.

It's hard to imagine how this is supposed to benefit the students of Oklahoma. Are they supposed to be inspired by Walters' political leanings? Will they be more likely to succeed in life if they're taught to blindly follow a certain political party? It all seems a bit ridiculous, if you ask me.

But hey, maybe I'm just not seeing the big picture here. Maybe there's some grand plan behind Walters' actions that I'm just not privy to. Or maybe he's just a MAGA hitman with his priorities seriously skewed.

Either way, it's clear that something needs to change. If Walters wants to truly make a positive impact on the education system in Oklahoma, he needs to start focusing on what really matters: the students. They're the ones who will be shaping the future of our country, after all.

So here's my advice to Mr. Walters: put down the MAGA hat and pick up a textbook. It's time to get back to the basics and start prioritizing education over politics. Trust me, your students will thank you for it.
