Fun With Fractions
Governor Stitt, now famously “that guy,” per Rod Polston, spent the recent session pitching “A Half and a Path,” hoping lawmakers would slash Oklahoma’s income tax by 0.5%. The legislature politely handed him half of a half, or a 0.25% cut, and called it a day. So ro
ughly the same percentage as Sara Polston served of her sentence.
Timing Is Everything
Speaking of Sara Polston, the story that just keeps on giving has her husband Rod Polston exchanging phone calls with “that guy” (Governor Kevin Stitt) in oddly “coincidental” moments in her Prison to Praise Testimony timeline—coming soon to Pure Flix!—including right before she was transferred to Mabel Basset Correctional Center, right before she was approved for the ankle monitor program, and again right before she’s moved to segregated housing at Eddie Warrior Correctional Center. Not coincidentally, in a segment that will need to be cut for the Pure Flix version, Rod tells his wife that someone important “pushed it from the top,” which, yeah, sounds NSFTV.
Life Comes at You Fast
And while we’re on the subject of testimonies, Reverend Jackson Lahmeyer, founder of Pastors for Trump, confused his role in running for Oklahoma’s 1st Congressional District with King David’s role of being a horny king. Like David seeing Bathsheba bathing naked (clearly not a Never Nude), Lahmeyer lusted after a woman via text, said woman turned out to be Miss Oklahoma 2007 Caitlin Key and the textual affair turned out to be a sexual affair—something he admitted after dropping out of the District 1 race, which he did after seeking “counsel and prayer with God and spiritual advisors.” God did not respond to requests for a comment, but Pastor Lahmeyer should go revisit some of those David stories to see where this is headed.
Whew!
This one is going to feel like a deep, cleansing breath. Mayor David Holt recently announced that Oklahoma City is near the top of the rankings once again when it comes to running our city government. Holt wrote: “This week, we have been ranked the No. 2 best-run large city (more than 500,000 residents) in the United States and No. 12 overall.” This according to WalletHub, which sounds like a place to borrow money, but isn’t. We have no idea who is running the other cities, nor how they feel about beauty queens, Bible stories, capricious and temporary endorsements and dirty talk, but go ahead and exhale, because we have no snark for this news.
