Another Oklahoma lawmaker has a bad idea to address homelessness!

According to various media reports, State Rep. Dell Kerbs – the coney shop owner who was named “Lawmaker of the Year” by the Oklahoma Pork Council for apparently being their best customer – has authored a bill that would allow municipalities “to use general revenue funds to purchase one-way bus tickets out of the state for homeless individuals.”

Earlier this week, my daughter and I stopped by our neighborhood (gayborhood?) Braum’s Ice Cream and Dairy Store™ at 39th and Penn for an after-school milkshake.

Well, at least that was the plan.

Over a decade ago, I reviewed Big Ed’s Hamburgers – the last remaining location of a once-thriving chain that, along with its corpulent owner, 'Big Ed' Thomas, was a shining star of Oklahoma City’s dining scene.

At the time of my original review, I poured some fry grease out for the dearly departed and had a Jumbo Cheeseburger in his name.

The guy pictured above is AJ Ferate.

AJ’s a lawyer, policy wonk, and—when he’s not reminiscing about his time as a tabloid curiosity—he moonlights as a powerful Oklahoma GOP political operative and kingmaker, working both in front of and behind the scenes to make sure Oklahoma remains a bottom-tier conservative state for generations.

Last week, with the dark glimmer of satanic Trump energy hovering over our heads, my fiancée and I made plans to meet my mother for a friendly lunch.

I’ll admit, I was a bit nervous.

Lately, it feels like the entire nation—especially places like Moore, Oklahoma—is trapped in a cheap, ball-capped death trance, a formally trashy cult where homespun diners double as right-wing meeting halls.

If you were going to pick one spot around town to dodge an ICE raid, Bricktown seems like a good choice.

Not only are there plenty of alleyways, dumpsters, and closed restaurants to hide in, but – let’s be honest – it seems like this area would be low on ICE’s priority list, with their efforts likely focused on the parts of town with a higher concentration of immigrants.

We’d like to wish a fond farewell to former OKC Fox morning meteorologist Elliot Wilson.

He went down in a blaze of glory last week after dropping a pair of early morning F-bombs during a Good Morning Oklahoma weather forecast.

I hope everyone enjoyed the first week of the Trump presidency. I know I sure have. In the past week, I’ve bought cheap eggs and gas, updated my globe, and even got to report my first immigrant to ICE. What a great time to be alive, huh?

I’m not the only one having so much fun in MAGA sun.

Take a nap, skip school, and fail a standardized test! Oklahoma education has somehow managed to get even dumber!

As I’m sure you know, President Donald Trump – the greatest president we’ve ever had who’s slept with a porn star – recently announced he’s magically renaming the Gulf of Mexico and Mt. Denali to the Gulf of America and Mt. McKinley.

You know, to make America great again.

If you see an ankle monitor for sale at the secondhand sports store, I guess this explains why.

Earlier this week, Tulsa’s News On 6 filed a report about a Henryetta high school basketball team fielding an intimidating roster filled with armed robbers wearing the latest in ankle monitor fashion.
