  1. The certificate misspells the word “certify”, if you look closely.

    It says certifiy.

    Ryan Walters is so incompetent as an education official. We wonder why Oklahoma’s 50th in education.

  2. The one thing more dangerous than old, senile conservative politicians, are young, well-educated ones like Ryan Walters.

    It’s only gonna get worse from here on out as young far-right politicians like him rise through the ranks.

  3. Oklahoma is dead last in education rankings.

    The only time conservatives care about children is when they can exploit them to push an agenda.

  4. Hey MAGA Meatheads!!

    The Big, Beautiful, Billionaires Bill has passed. LOL. Trump and Republikans kicked about 15 million of you chumps off your healthcare.

    They also jacked it so ACA  premiums are expected to rise 75% next year.  Great job!!!

  5. >“When was the Declaration of Independence adopted?” (July 4, 1776)

    False. July 2, 1776.

  6. Developed by Prager U, so you know it’s bigoted as hell.

  7. * In 2023, over 6,000 teachers in Oklahoma left the classroom in the 2022-23 school year, representing nearly 14% of the total teaching workforce.
    * The state issued a record-setting 4,676 emergency certifications in 2023-24, which allow individuals with a bachelor’s degree but no formal teaching qualifications to teach in classrooms. 
    * Oklahoma’s teacher shortage, according to stats from 2023, is 1,019.

    Oklahoma is ranked 50th in education, with a teacher shortage out the wazoo, and Ryan Walters, the fascist, wants to literally do everything counterintuitive to helping our classrooms stay staffed.

    We’re having to hire teachers from Mexico to come in and teach, and Ryan Walters is cancelling meetings and trying to scare off all the teachers with his hate regime.

    At what point does Oklahoma finally say enough is enough and have Walters deposed from office? It needs to be now.

  8. This is all for performance.

    No teacher from California or New York is moving to Oklahoma to teach. What is there in OK to attract them? Both states pay substantially higher salaries than Oklahoma and offer better standards of living.

  9. I’m honestly just trying to figure out why the fuck anyone from California or New York would choose to move to Oklahoma.

  10. Is there a teacher from a state that values education that would actually want to move to that shithole?

  11. >The word “certify” is mispelled as “certifiy” on the official certificate.

    A perfect summary of MAGA.

  12. What, no “Did Donald Trump win the 2020 US election” question?

  14. I’m sure this will be an effective test for the 0 people who end up moving to fucking Oklahoma.

  15. Dennis Prager is a bloviating piece of shit. I wouldn’t trust that man to educate a rat.

    Even the rat would be offended by the level of dumb that he and his Prager U Conservative propaganda machine are trying to whitewash as “alternative views.”

    “Ideological diversity” my ass. People, no one deserves a special class or protection for their bad ideas. You either come up with better ones that can hold the mustard in a contest of ideas, or you shut the fuck up and go home.

  16. Imagine getting poverty wages and being forced to teach prager u garbage. I bet the line to sign up circles the block who could turn this down besides everyone

  17. I’m rather curious as to just how many educated women actually *want* to move to a state where they lose rights AND a giant cut in pay.

  22. Pretty sure only requiring teachers from specific states to take a test for licensure but not other states wouldn’t even pass the rational basis test.

  24. Fun Fact: Prager University is NOT a university. They put out videos on Youtube with blatantly slanted, conservative subjects. It’s a cartoon of a real educational institution.

  26. I love that these people are so incapable of seeing nuance that they assume everyone from CA and NY is a liberal and liberally minded and woke. Both states have huge numbers of conservatives. These people are fucking dorks.

  27. Oklahoma needs to be boycotted. Good Patriotic American teachers have options. They can teach anywhere else if they prefer not have a bunch of hypocritical Christian Nationalists tainting curriculum with their backward bigoted views.

  28. That Civil War question is such nonsense. Lincoln didnt wage war, THE FUCKING SOUTH DID

  30. Yes, because teachers from Cali and NY are flocking to OK. Performance politics with its colossal waste of money and everyone’s time.

  31. How many teachers are willing to be underpaid and under a microscope in Oklahoma?

  32. Lol the worst state in the country for education is making some bold demands in their imaginary world where people from California and New York would want to move to their back water shithole

  33. LOL, no teacher worth their salt is moving *from* CA/NY *to OK.* Get fucked you incompetent weirdos.

  34. Oklahoma, dead fucking last in education, really shouldn’t be turning away teachers for any reason.

  35. I think they’ve vastly overestimated the number of NY and CA teachers looking to move to the worst state in the nation for education

  37. Oklahoma’s also changing their state logo to “We eat paint chips”

  38. I think it’s hilarious OK thinks anyone educated in NY or CA would want to apply there.

  39. Do these people realize that PragerU is not an actual university? It’s a YouTube era entertainment company that specializes in brainwas… Ahem I mean pushing an agenda. Of course they realize it, what am I expecting from state leadership?

  40. As if we didn’t already have a SEVERE shortage of teachers as it is. And now requiring indoctrination. If they don’t pass the test, but still want the job, are there camps to aid them?

  41. Who the fuck is moving to OK? It literally offers nothing

  42. Why the fuck would a teacher move to Oklahoma? I’m pretty sure teacher pay is terrible there and they respect teachers even less than the rest of the country 

  43. No one from nyc wants to live in Texas’s dumber hat

  44. Quick question for the good of the group.

    What teacher in New York or California in their right mind is like “I love my job so much, I’m going to go to the state that’s the worst at it”?
