So I'm in Oklahoma, which was hit by a massive wave of thunderstorms last weekend which left thousands of homes without power, and down in Texas, five people died in tornadoes associated with those storms.

Both Oklahoma governor Kevin Stitt AND Oklahoma Lieutenant Governor Matt Pinnell are in Paris, living it up on the taxpayer dime for some air show being put on by airmen from the local Tinker AFB.

Two days after the storm, the President Pro Tem of the Senate is informed that he is now the acting governor because Stitt and Pinnell are out of the state, and issued a state of emergency. TWO DAYS LATER. So nobody was in charge.

Meanwhile, Stitt and Pinnell are still living it up in Paris. Stitt's ass should have been on the next plane home after the storm. 

This isn't the first time Stitt has shown such negligence as governor. And yet he won his re-election in 2022 in even larger numbers than his original election in 2018.
