@RealEJAntoni A great evaluation of the inflation situation. @federalreserve would be wise to end replacement of maturing balance sheet assets and minimize meddling with the short term rate. Unfortunately, they seem inclined to maintain the balance sheet intervention while also raising rates. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@TeslaCharging @Tesla Why can’t I have group power sharing with power monitoring so I don’t overload my supply but I can have multiple cars charging simultaneously?

@Disney should drop all spouse insurance subsidies.
People who are 70 years old right now and went straight from a reasonably priced employer sponsored healthcare plan for their entire family to Medicare have no idea how good they have it

@TulsaFlyer @Shaunicy_ Why are the closures of TPS sites coming as a shock? If you have a student in a school that has less than 50% utilization and the neighborhood population is either shrinking, or aging, should not change be expected? Do we do a disservice to people by removing their own agency from the conversation as if they are helpless to see the problem and should believe that nothing is supposed to ever change? Schools are undergoing significant changes due to the continued impact of decisions made during COVID. Schools that stayed closed and allowed students to suffer educational decline appear to be continuing to lose students as parents make different choices. Combined with demographics, there are simply fewer children entering schools and there will be adjustments. Parents should be proactively seeking admission to growing and dynamic schools to reduce the risk of being at a school that must close. Don’t wait for change to impact you. Be the change.

The @federalreserve 10-year yield versus the debt as a percentage of GDP… Maybe the massive pandemic spending and debt accumulation has established a turning point @SecScottBessent Time to reduce our debt and get this under control ‼️ @POTUS @RussVought47

Oklahoma continues to lose economically to Income-Tax-Free Texas. @MazzeiMike has a detailed plan to lower Oklahoma’s rates immediately and deliver on the promise of eliminating the income tax completely for Oklahomans ‼️ wsj.com/business/energy-oil/…

@the_matt And where are the @POTUS vetoes of deficit spending? All it would take is for a president to veto spending and tax legislation that doesn’t generate a surplus and we would solve the problems. Balance the budget, reduce the debt, or shut the damn thing down‼️ @SecScottBessent @VanceGinn @JDVance @RussVought47

@MazzeiMike Pass a constitutional amendment requiring state and local spending to remain within the prior year’s amount as adjusted by multiplying by the percentage change in population. Any increase in spending beyond population growth should be put to a vote of the people.

@TulsaSchools_sp @TulsaFlyer Maybe Tulsa Public Schools should eliminate about 500 FTE employees and run a leaner operation in addition to the theatrics of closing schools without disclosing staffing reductions. @grok Tulsa Public Schools (TPS) operates with a higher overall staffing intensity than nearby suburban districts. Using the most consistent available figures (NCES FTE staff plus recent district-reported headcounts), TPS would need to cut several hundred positions to reach a similar employee-to-pupil ratio.5 Current TPS figures •NCES (2024–25): 33,617 students and 4,860 FTE staff → roughly 6.9 students per employee. •TPS website (October 2025): 32,450 students and 5,423 team members (headcount) → roughly 6.0 students per employee.12 Surrounding districts (approximate students per employee) •Jenks: 7.3 (NCES FTE) •Union: ~7.4 (district headcount) •Broken Arrow: 7.7 (district FTE) •Sand Springs: 7.8 (NCES FTE) •Owasso: 8.1 (NCES FTE) A reasonable target for “similar to surrounding communities” is about 7.6–7.8 students per employee. Implied reduction •Using NCES FTE numbers for TPS and a 7.6–7.7 target: TPS would need to reduce staff by roughly 430–500 FTE positions. •Using the October 2025 TPS headcount and the same target ratio: the reduction would be larger (on the order of 1,000 positions), but this mixes headcount with FTE data and is less comparable. These calculations treat all staff categories equally. TPS serves a student population with higher rates of economic disadvantage, English learners, and special-education needs than most neighboring districts, which typically requires more support staff. Any actual staffing change would also have to account for state class-size rules, transportation distances, and building utilization.
