2. Ryan Walters built his political career by turning the state’s public education system into a far-right pulpit of his own design, fear-mongering about and bullying trans kids. Now, he may face a sexual misconduct investigation himself.
3. During a routine meeting of the Oklahoma State Board of Education (OSBE), a television displayed “naked women” on a “chiropractic table”—this according to at least two board members, Becky Carson and Ryan Deatherage. Meanwhile, a parent was speaking to the board, according to reporting by NonDoc.

4. “Any number of people have access to these offices, you have a hostile board who will say and do anything except tell the truth, and now, ‘NonsenseDoc’ is reporting on an alleged random TV cable image," claimed Walters. When asked if this meant he was denying, he did not answer.
5. Meanwhile, board members called for an investigation and possible disciplinary action against Walters, including a review of his teaching certificate. “Besides the shock value and the disturbance of it all and how it affected me as a woman, I think it’s the double standard,” Carson said.
6. “I believe that Superintendent Walters should be held accountable just like we would any other school teacher, which means at this point—based on other things we’ve looked at in executive session—we would probably pull his (teaching) certificate and put him on his own list,” Deatherage said.
7. Walters has since doubled down, casting himself as a martyr to the political cause of conservatism. “As I lead the charge for a bold overhaul of education in Oklahoma,” he wrote in a public statement, “it’s no surprise to face politically motivated attacks.” kfor.com/news/supt-wa...

8. Walters continues to maintain ties with anti-rights groups and actors, with an especially nasty penchant for targeting trans youth. He put “Libs of Tiktok” aka Chaya Raichik, a right-wing extremist influencer, on a state library committee despite the fact she has no professional credentials.
