The controversy continues for Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters, as his feeble attempts to dismiss allegations failed to stop inquiries after the now infamous school board meeting. On July 24, 2025, as mentioned in a previous post here, Ryan Walters was conducting a school board in his usual narcissistic and grandiose fashion, unaware nude images were being displayed behind him on a television set. It was not until one of the two board members-Becky Carson and Ryan Deatherage, who witnessed the full nudity of women (some news stories indicated a chiropractic table was amidst the women in the background) that Becky Carson vehemently demanded Walters to stop the movies from being displayed.
The sheriff's office in Oklahoma County has now launched an investigation to determine what kind of material was on the television set during the board meeting. This probe will likely rely heavily on the testimony of the two witnesses, who are both staunch Republicans, likely MAGA, --and more importantly, have no reason to devise a clandestine operation against Ryan Walters.
Walters is quoted as saying "Some of these board members are blatantly dishonest and cannot hide their political agenda. It is disappointing that they are more interested in creating distractions than getting work done for Oklahoma families." The hypocritical and far right white supremacist has also stated “Any suggestion that a device of mine was used to stream inappropriate content on the television set is categorically false,” and “I have no knowledge of what was on the TV screen during the alleged incident, and there is absolutely no truth to any implication of wrongdoing.”
Walters continues to deny knowledge of the porn on his television set, and some of his fellow MAGA mates are belching out Walters has no control on what happens on his television. Let's use our heads here people. We are talking about a state owned operated building, where official state business is conducted 5 days a week. Do you really think an official state building is going to pay for a porn channel on their television sets in government offices, or have any cable channel with displays porn on it cranking in their building on any given day? I truly do not think so!
The Daily Oklahoman reports in a recent article "During board meetings, several Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers are in the Oliver Hodge Building, where Walters' office is located and where education board meetings are held. The main hallway leading into his office is accessible only with a keycard." In the very same article, it is also reported there is security video surveillance of approximately 48 people entering into the office between 9:30 to 11:30 am. The meeting started at 11:30 am. I will put my Sherlock cap on here, and speculate it would be nearly impossible with so many people entering in and out of Walter's office for anyone to have the opportunity to setup pornography on his television. That leaves one likely candidate in this so called "mystery"--Ryan Walters.
Walters is throwing out lame excuses, mimicking his beloved Trump, with the ever present witch-hunt nuances; but its not working very well. Shame, I hope it keeps going that way.
Oklahoma was recently ranked 50th in the United States for school quality; and although not much higher, it was ranked 47th before Ryan Walters assumed the role of state superintendent.
With all the antics this Christian white nationalist has thrown, from insisting Trump bibles being placed in every public classroom and lessons taught from it, to censoring materials in the school libraries which he considers to be "woke"--I find it amazing teachers (and parents) have not mobilized to take action in forcing Ryan Walters to resign a long time ago. Now there are calls for impeachment, which is very long overdue.
Keep religion out of public schools, and maintain our American system of separation of church and state. And this is my view as a Christian who believes God is not a God who advocates hate.
