Getting Traffic Tickets Without Driving

 Big Brother is Here

Last week the law signed by Gov. Fallin in 2016 payed off for a few special interests in the state. The District Attorneys Council has cut a deal with a private company to begin scanning as many as 10,000 violation notices per day for cars scanned and ticketed for lack of insurance. Or better put, ticketed because their system doesn't think the car has insurance. Unless you have an out of state tag, are driving a fleet vehicle, or an Indian tag, those are exempt. Bringing up a constitutional challenge as all laws are supposed to be enforced equally.

The Uninsured Vehicle Enforcement Diversion Program, UVEDP, uses cameras mounted on cars, trailers, and fixed locations to scan vehicle tags and compare the tag numbers with the Oklahoma Insurance Department list. If the system doesn't find a match, the owner of the car gets a $174.00 ticket mailed to them. A company called Sensys Fatso Group is paying for the system and operating costs in return for $80.00 per ticket the first year, going down to $68.00 per ticket in later years. The D.A. Council gets the lion's share of the remaining $94.00 and $10.00 goes to the Oklahoma Insurance Department, $5.00 for payment processing, and $5.00 for the retired law enforcement pension fund.

The Edmondson Brothers & Corruption

The Corruption and Crimes Somehow LeavesBoth Jim Edmondson and Drew Edmondson  UntouchedOthers, Well They Were Not So Lucky

Drew Edmondson's corruption should be known to readers of this newsletter. Long ago we wrote about the Bob Craig, then the Sergeant at Arms of the Senate, how he and an former elected official/state administrator bullied a non profit into hiring Craig.

The agency over seeing the funds and performance of the non profit that had been bullied had started an investigation but Drew Edmondson, then the A.G. Of Oklahoma, intervened and asked for the matter to be left in his hands. Craig was a Democrat and so was Edmondson and Craig likely knew where plenty of bodies were buried so Edmondson buried the investigation. Around 2011 or 2012 we did an open records request at the A.G. Office and was told that there were no records indicating a case had ever been opened or even any mention of the scandal.

Then of course there was Tar Creek and the millions of tax dollars stolen. Edmondson was the A.G. at the time and refused multiple calls for an investigation and audit. Later, once an audit had been done and released, thanks to a Washington D.C. Group suing the state for concealing the audit, there was Drew Edmondson strutting and puffing about no audit in state history had ever been concealed.

Paternity Bites A Dike

Unintended Consequences, Karma is a ….Fallin

The problem with political correct thought and laws are the unintended consequences. Human societies have generally had marriage and common sense laws for that very reason; things are the way they are because the work and messing with nature can create more problems that they thought they solved.

This funny, to me anyways, post on Reddit.com was a great example. First I had to look up what the hell "cis gender" was and apparently it is when (big surprise) people identify with the sex that they were born with. Now, on with the story in as an offensive manner as possible.

Last week an attorney friend approached me about a district judge in Tulsa, James Caputo, wanting to see a story about the guy because despite losing cases in front of the judge, the friend was impressed by Caputo's demeanor and legal knowledge and willingness to hold fair trials. I said that I needed to run it by the folks in Tulsa as it was their backyard and would know much more than I did. What I found out was there were rumors of inappropriate behavior against Caputo but all were little more than rumors and might well be trash talk by an opponent. So I was surprised to hear back from one of the Tulsa sources that a blackmail scheme had been outed involving sitting incumbent AG Mike Hunter and the OSBI.

Stites Gets Hot About Being Exposed

October 14^th 2018 Newsletter 

Wailing and Gnashing of Teeth Back East

Our story last week about the attack on political speech by Sequoyah County HD2 candidate Tom Stites put his attorney into overdrive. Local shyster lawyer Frank Sullivan had written the original threatening letter to the billboard company and went into quite a fuss once he and Stites found out that the billboard was going right back up.

The original threatening letter is below:

Felons Cycle Through TEEM & Back To Crime

Another Felon Working for TEEM Back to a Life of Crime

Another of the many convicted felons that Kris Steele's TEEM organization has working for them is on the run after being arrested for second degree forgery. Haylie Marie Webb was the poster child of the TEEM organization, trotted around at all the fund raisers and public events after Kris Steele took over leadership of TEEM. Kris Steele hires Haylie Marie Webb as his assistant no less. And according to Linkedin.com and the TEEM directory Webb continues to work for TEEM.

Webb was arrested and charges filed around the end of August and charges were filed on September 19^th. She was released using TEEM's own Pre Trial Release Program but by October first the bond was revoked after Webb failed to appear in court and Webb was on the run. The court record shows that the bond was forfeited but of course that is the point of pre trial release, no bond is paid so no money is there to forfeit.

Russian TV Loves Rep. Chris Kannady

Oklahoma's Favorite Russian Owned Legislator

Using Fake News Against Opponent

Comrade Chris Kannaday, Russian and terrorist sympathizer and attacker of conservative Republicans got outed last week over some fake news that his allies in his district planted on a local TV station. Not only that, Comrade Kannaday lied about the circumstances, pretending that a teacher had been rude to a state senator that had visited her classroom.

David Van with Sooner Politics wrote an excellent article which is reprinted below:

A Recent drama at OKC's Crooked Oak Schools is bringing up a discussion of the proper role of a school board in legislative elections. The matter surrounds a school teacher's right to use her own time and free speech rights when away from the school campus. Especially that teacher's right to run for elective office.

Sexual Harassment At The Capitol?

House Leadership Member Sexual Harassment Story Remains on Hold

  There have been a ton of stories that we couldn't run to avoid hurting someone innocent but this won't be one of those stories. Before the election, we will have one heck of a story concerning one or more members of House Leadership team that is facing sexual harassment charges and more.

  Right now we are still waiting for the victims to prepare for filing the complaints and expecting House leadership to do all they can to suppress and intimidate everyone involved. Should they accomplish this task few would be surprised but at least on of the victims wants justice and understand the danger of allowing sexual predators to remain in office.

House Leadership Supporting Democrats Over Republicans

 Another Example of House Leadership

Condoning Support of Democrats over Republicans

  David Van at Sooner Politics wrote a story exposing    Republican Rep. Carol Bush's support of Democratic candidates and other examples of Republicans like Kannaday, West, and McDugle either outright attacking Republican conservatives or helping to fund the attacks.

David Van also confirmed the timeline and proved that it was House leadership's Leslie Osborn that fired the first round, calling for conservative members to be primaried for not voting for the teacher taxes. There is even a short video showing Osborn's House floor rant against conservatives where she called for primary challengers and even billboards in the districts of those that supported the GOP Party Platform by voting against the tax increases.

Stites Can't Win For Losing

 Bully Candidate Threatening Lawsuit over Billboard Wins... then Loses

Sequoyah County has a long history of being ran by a few families with a penchant for violence and thuggery and any dissent was harshly squashed. The local governments and judicial system was horrendously corrupt as one would expect in such an environment. Change began in 2010 with the election of John Bennett, the first state representative ever elected in that district, then a decent man was elected sheriff a few years later.

But the ruling families have fought hard to roll back the transparency and those that dared challenged them. In the 2016 House district race the Democratic candidate Tom Stites, one of the oldest sons of one of the ruling families, spent around $300,000 in the election. Hoping to win a job that paid $35,000....

The Muddy Path of Dark Money PACs

The Dark Money Story that Sooner Tea Party Broke 

Continues to Have Legs

Collusion and Campaign Law Evasion Possible?

Definition of incestuous 

1 : constituting or involving incest

2 : guilty of incest

3 : excessively or improperly intimate or exclusive

STP first linked House leadership to the dark money in a story that went out into HD 80 voter guide around the 12th of August. We published the first newsletter story on September the 4th, then reported the stampede to re fill their PAC coffers and sell House votes on September 8th, leading the AP writer Sean Murphy to inquire on the links between the dark money and House leadership. We shared the evidence and allegations which we had gathered for a follow up story on the 16th of September, most of the info found its way into the Associated Press story that came out on September 27th.

Sexual Harassment Complaint About To Rock Capitol

New Sexual Harassment Scandal at the Capitol

Two of the House Leadership Team Might Lose Their Seats

Will House Leadership Whitewash Everything?

Back in January 2017 Rep. Dan Kirby was thrown under the bus in an effort orchestrated by others including another state rep named Randy Grau that was alleged to have actually had an affair with one of the "victims". The other case against Kirby was a somewhat consensual relationship. Also dragged in was William Fourkiller, a Democrat, was also accused of making someone uncomfortable, he denied the accusations, and accepted sanctions. Kirby was forced to resign pretty much. Kirby of course was pretty much conservative, House leadership needed someone to throw under the bus and Kirby was their boy.

So it is going to be interesting how House leadership treats two of their own leadership team members once two or more sexual harassment cases are filed. Especially with an election coming up and anyone bashing women for coming forward isn't going to endear themselves with half of the voting population. In order to protect the women involved we aren't going to run with the full story but we do need to get people talking about the issue. It seems there is another woman that was also sexually harassed by one of the two perverts and she isn't aware of the other victims.

Back on February 25th of this year we published the story of House Leadership's attack on the Sooner Tea Party led by Rep. Chris Kannady, an attack upon the 149 individual Facebook pages that had been set up covering each House and Senate district in the state. Kannady bragged to a South side OKC political activist who in turned warned the Sooner Tea Party of the threat of an unspecific impending attack.

Then shortly after Christmas the 149 pages were reported one by one to Facebook and taken down by their automatic bots used when someone claims they are offensive or not following the rules.  Some appeals were successful and the pages republished by Facebook but the majority of the pages were permanently unpublished with no further appeal possible.

What we didn't know was why House Leadership was so afraid of the Facebook pages that consisted of the 2017 Oklahoma RINO Index vote score for that particular public official and a series of posts explaining each bad vote and why the bill was against Oklahoma values and the GOP Party Platform. The posts weren't mean, they were unusually mild for one of our publications so we were left wondering what had set House Leadership off.

The STP Dark Money Story Went National 

House Leadership Denies Involvement in Hatchet Job

But they do Respect Us and the Check is in the Mail

Our story on September 9^th on the efforts to replenish House leadership's PAC fund drew the attention of Associated Press Sean Murphy who emailed asking for the names of the other PACs used by House leadership to take down the conservative Republicans. We turned over the additional information that we had been researching on for the next story on the actual PACs and who was behind the dark money group. While the donors remain hidden, we did manage to ferret out the expenditures and track them back to local mail houses and consultants which we published the following week in this story.

The effort to collaborate with the AP writer turned into a major nationwide news story that outed the effort by House leadership, even with their denials their hatchet men admitted to doing the work as well as the political consultants named in our original report on the 16th of September.
