Yep, that’s right.

Instead of handling judicial retention like you usually do – voting for some judges and against others seemingly at random – I’m asking you to respond to recent partisan right-wing attacks on our judiciary by fighting fire with a little bit of fire and voting against them.

No, that’s not a bad yearbook quote or a paralegal’s bumper sticker. It’s a phrase that appears in the latest radio ad for attorney Joseph Costa – a candidate for district judge in Pottawatomie and Lincoln counties.

It’s a pretty run-of-the-mill quote, but it seemed relevant to share after NonDoc dropped a bombshell story reporting that Costa was investigated by OSBI – but never charged – for allegedly raping one of his clients in 2020.

Here are the details via NonDoc:

You may be wondering why I’m writing about cold and flu when I’m not a medical professional. Rest assured I have a pathogen resume that makes me uniquely suited for this.

Ah yes, it’s that magical time of year, when the veil between the living and the dead grows thin. Ghosts roam freely, witches gather around bonfires, and werewolves howl under the moonlight.

As part of my new gig as TLO’s resident beer taster, I went looking for what’s on tap at Roughtail Brewing. Located at 320 W. Memorial Road, this taproom has been one of my favorites for years, and I figured it was time to see if drinking on assignment tastes better than drinking on my own dime.

The remarks apparently start at 6:30 p.m., giving Oklahoma Democrats a rare chance to see what a Democratic governor looks like live and in the flesh.

Here’s her announcement:

I assumed that Jennifer Roberts – the former leader of OKCity Crisis Nursery – would be the runaway winner after she was accused of using money for impoverished babies to fund drug purchases and support her upper-middle-class Botox lip injection lifestyle. But according to this update from the OSBI, there’s a new contender!

Apparently, Andree Harper – the former executive director of Mary Abbott Children’s House in Norman, a nonprofit that helps kids of all ages deal with abuse, drugs and neglect – has been arrested on seven counts of embezzlement after allegedly siphoning more than $219,000 from the nonprofit to pay for plastic surgery, airfare, Airbnb stays and other personal expenses.

Over the weekend, I stumbled across this X-post from T.W. – the right-wing MAGA C-list influencer who will soon be our lieutenant governor – bragging about his work turning CD-5 from a competitive purple district into a gerrymandered “likely red” one.

Fair or not, I had spent years treating Moore as a place to drive through on the way to lunch somewhere else. The taco scene had ranged from impossibly low to possibly mid, and I didn’t want to spend good money on more lame offerings.

You know, big-time famous people like Hollywood heartthrob Jason Momoa – the star of Aquaman, A Minecraft Movie, and a bunch of other shitty movies I’ve never watched.

According to this report on KOCO, the actor has been spotted at various places across OKC over the past couple of weeks, including Whiskey Chicks, the First Americans Museum and Sun Cattle Company.

Despite a jury of his peers finding him guilty of defrauding the state and recommending 10 years in prison, Oklahoma County District Judge Cindy Truong handed slow-smoked BBQ swindler Brent Swadley a sweetheart suspended sentence Thursday that will let the convicted fraudster avoid prison time.

In my day, you took your pillowcase and trekked through the neighborhood from 6 PM to 9 PM to earn your candy. And I won’t let my child live in a world where he thinks you can just walk around a church parking lot to earn treats.

So, it’s with these convictions I bring to you the definitive list of the best places to trick-or-treat in Oklahoma City.

Just days after Democrats tooted their trumpets and tuned their trombones over an expected $500,000 in spending from the Democratic Governors Association, the wealthy showboats at the Republican Governors Association are apparently wasting a cool $3 million to help a floundering Mike Mazzei secure the job.

Well, at least according to Ben Felder with The Oklahoman:
