The huge story all over Oklahoma has been accusations that Ryan Walters watches pornography in his office. (And his accusers lead us to believe it is only now being discovered!)
Saturday, I was on two lengthy
phone calls with Ryan and
learned these things:
RYAN WALTERS WILL PRESENT TO THE MEDIA
PROOF THAT NONE OF HIS DEVICES CONNECT
TO HIS OFFICE TELEVISION
Ryan’s office television is not connected to his phone, his laptop, or any other device except the remote control which is lying on Ryan’s desk.
This is presently the biggest media hoax which has become the driving engine of the story. The media is hinting that Ryan watches pornography on his devices and it is all linked to his television. This is false information and Ryan Walters, true to his promise to me, published the proof yesterday.
In addition, there are no premium channels
enrolled on the television in Ryan's office.
When Ryan left for the Thursday morning board meeting the television was not turned on. As the board meeting progressed (2 1/2 Hours), there were 48 staffers identified by camera as having walked in and out of Ryan's office. At some point, after 9:30 AM, someone turned the television on to FOX but muted it so as to not risk disturbing the adjacent board meeting.
After the board meeting, the board members went to his office for Executive Session. Food was laid out on Ryan’s desk (the same desk where the remote was also lying).
While the board members ate (in the presence of the television), Ryan was busy gathering the non-board members needed for the Executive Session.
FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME,
BOARD MEMBERS ARE IN RYAN'S
OFFICE WITHOUT RYAN BUT
WITH THE TELEVISION
& THE REMOTE.
It was more than ten minutes later when Ryan entered the room for the first time in nearly four hours. From 9:30 AM to well after 12:00 PM, Ryan Walters was never in the room. Only the 48 staffers, the members of the Oklahoma Board of Education, and the television remote had been in the room.
Upon entering his office for the Executive Session, Ryan sat down, his back was to the television. Then suddenly, and not for the duration of time prior, Edmond’s Becky Carson claimed she saw nudity on the television. Ryan turned, saw nothing of the kind, but turned it off.
No comments from the board regarding “nudity” ensued.
After the conclusion of executive session both Becky Carson and Ryan Deatherage began to coordinate the details of a plan for a Friday media blitz. On Friday they revealed to the media their claim of having witnessed nudity on the television ("witnessed" only after Ryan entered the room). No one else saw anything. Ryan is investigating what appears to be a coordinated scenario from higher places.
More will become public next week. The Governor's office controls the access to the analysis on all its devices and Ryan has asked them to expedite the process and make public their findings.

No matter what the evidence unveils, this is a blight upon a state in need of growing out of its sophomoric and immature behavior.
We need leadership who will help us develop
as a people of stature, mature dignity,
and intellectual integrity.
Jesus is Lord over the political arena, all elements of government, education, and both the past and the future of mankind.
Christ's lordship over mankind is a reality that appears to us a stream of history composed of that which seems at times muddy and at other times quite clear.
WHEN THE ACTS OF MEN MAKE
LIFE DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND
Noting life's confusions, on December 18, 2023, I remembered Corrie Ten Boom in the Monday newsletter and published her poem, Life is but a Weaving. The text is a product of her difficulties during Hitler’s reign in Germany which made life appear to be a gnarled confusion of inconceivable human events. Corrie describes the product of those events which produced in her a godly wisdom I have appreciated for the past forty years.
At the close of the film The Hiding Place, an epilogue was added. Corrie Ten Boom is filmed, I think in a rocking chair, and she quoted Life is but a Weaving.
Forty years ago, it was her humble and quiet demeanor, combined with the profound nature of her life, that was for me a spiritual turning point. The combination in her life of both peace and power led me to prayerfully consider what it meant to walk with God, to be filled with His Spirit, and to walk in the Master's footsteps. (Forty years ago, I was the Campus Crusade for Christ director at the University of Oklahoma.)
