Abortions on demand? Ryan Walters exposes how schools are brainwashing kids



When former Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters discovered a disturbing flyer included in a kit allegedly distributed to union teachers across the country — he couldn’t help but sound the alarm.

“You shared this flyer that was part of an ‘everyone’s welcome here’ kit with the rainbow flag. And this was distributed to union teachers across the country,” Gonzales says, showing a photo of the flyer.

“So curious thing, when you scan that QR code, do I have this correctly, Ryan? It takes you to a website where you can book an abortion?” she continues.

“Yes. ... They don’t even hide it,” Walters replies.


“I mean, it is, ‘OK, we’re going to trans your kid,’ ‘We want your kids to be gay,’ and then, ‘By the way, kids, here’s a direct line to how you get abortions,’” he explains.

While their excuse is usually just that they’re “informing” the students of their options, Walters claims that's a lie.

“No, this goes even a step further, going, 'We will help you get these abortions,'” he tells Gonzales.

“You see Gavin Newsom all in on this. You see the teachers' unions all in on this, of again, what we’re pushing is indoctrination, but then also funneling you into the means to carry these things out, and again, all behind a parent's back,” he explains.

“We saw the teachers' unions in Florida, California, across the country go, ‘Hey, we’ve got to shield the parents from the information their kids are getting at school.’ I mean, they literally sued the DeSantis administration in Florida to not allow parents to see the syllabus of what’s being taught in a course,” he adds.

“What an insult to injury,” Gonzales chimes in. “You are paying our salaries, but we don’t have to report back to you what we’re teaching your children."

"It’s the ultimate slap in the face for a parent,” Walters says.

‘Just because you’re alive doesn’t mean you are intelligent’: Viral video shows teacher berating student for defending ICE agent who shot Renee Good



In the tumultuous wake of Renee Good’s death, a video from Minnesota’s Becker High School is going viral on social media.

The footage captures social studies teacher Dr. Heather Abrahamson heatedly arguing with a student about the fatal shooting of Good — the 37-year-old anti-ICE protester who struck ICE agent Jonathan Ross with her vehicle while deliberately impeding an immigration enforcement operation in Minneapolis on January 7.

On a recent episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” Sara played the footage and discussed the radical politicization of our teachers’ unions and the leftist indoctrination of our youth with Teacher Freedom Alliance CEO Ryan Walters.

In the clip, Abrahamson insists that Officer Ross should have de-escalated the situation.

“Your job as a police officer is to de-escalate,” she spat, gesturing dramatically at the dissenting student, who fired back, “He had a split second.”

“Watch the video! He was not in danger,” Abrahamson retorted, ignoring the fact that footage from the incident captures Ross being propelled backward as Good’s vehicle makes contact with him and numerous reports that Ross suffered internal bleeding following the incident.

“Just because you’re yelling doesn’t mean you’re winning an argument,” the student said, refusing to bend.

“Just because you’re alive doesn’t mean you are intelligent,” Abrahamson clapped back.

The recording of this chaotic encounter, distributed by Libs of TikTok, has amassed nearly 4 million views on X and sparked intense debate over political indoctrination in classrooms.

“This is a very pervasive issue,” Sara says, displaying the following memo recently distributed by the National Education Association arguing for increased anti-ICE activism.

This kind of left-wing activism poisoning America’s classrooms, Walters says, is “a coordinated effort from the teachers’ unions.”

“‘Tell your students that the police are the enemy, that ICE is the enemy’ — and this is exactly what they're pushing into our schools,” he says. “It’s not a one-off. It’s not, well, you know, here’s some crazy left-wing socialist teacher. No, this is the teachers’ unions utilizing their foot soldiers to ... undermine this country through the classrooms.”

Sara brings up a recent Fox News article that exposed the NEA — the largest teachers’ union in the United States and the largest labor union overall in the country — for funneling millions in union funds during the 2024 fiscal year to various far-left and social justice-oriented groups and ballot initiatives.

“In a lot of these places, the teachers don’t have a choice. They have to join the union. They have to pay the fees,” Sara says. “I mean, it’s adding insult to injury that you’re essentially stealing from someone because they want to have the occupation as a teacher and then you’re using it to fund [left-wing] causes.”

Walters says that it’s paramount that we stop them.

“We have to defund them. Every teacher, you should opt out. Go to optouttoday.com. Get out of the union. Quit paying union fees to destroy this country. ... And every state should be passing legislation to rail back on the union’s power. There shouldn’t be teachers’ unions,” he says.

“What you have in the teachers’ union is this huge apparatus of power. They have a ton of money. They have a ton of resources. They are embedded in the Democrat Party. They are one of their biggest funders,” he continues.

Walters warns that if we fail to defeat teachers’ unions, the consequences are potentially massive: “They’re going to gear up all this before the congressional elections, just like they did for Kamala Harris when over $400 million went from the teachers’ union to her presidential campaign. Same thing’s going to happen in this election cycle.”

But the money is just the weapon — the real war is in our classrooms.

Teachers’ unions, Walters says, have been instrumental in brainwashing younger generations into becoming America-hating, die-hard Democrats.

“We didn’t just wake up one day ... [with] millions of kids that sit here and think we’re an evil, racist country. They think cops are bad guys. That didn’t just happen. It happened because of a coordinated attack,” he says.

The viral video of Dr. Abrahamson insulting a student’s intelligence because he refused to condemn an ICE agent he believes acted in self-defense is merely one thread in a vast tapestry of proof.

“We’ve got to turn this around 180 degrees in the other direction and go back to a patriotic education, love of country, love of American values. We’ve got to get back to that,” Walters urges.

Can ‘woke’ teachers pass a 5th-grade biology test?



Many of today’s teachers can’t pass the most basic civics or literacy tests — and yet they’re in charge of shaping the next generation.

Which is why in collaboration with conservative educational group PragerU, Oklahoma Superintendent for Public Instruction Ryan Walters has introduced a new test for teachers coming into his state from California and New York in an attempt to keep out “woke indoctrination.”

These tests may be extended in the future to teachers coming from eight other Democratic-led states, and they include basic questions that would root out any indoctrinated individual who plans to teach children biological lies based on the LGBTQ+ agenda.


“Ryan Walters of Oklahoma approached us and said, ‘Can you just do something very basic, because the complaints are coming in when parents are sending their kids to schools where teachers who have come in from California and New York are in charge of a classroom and are bringing in the woke indoctrination that they’ve received in California?’” PragerU CEO Marissa Streit tells Blaze media co-founder Glenn Beck on “The Glenn Beck Program.”

Glenn is shocked by the questions on the test.

“This is the first question,” he says, before reading the questions. “What’s the primary biological distinction between males and females? A. Height and weight, B. Hairstyle, C. Personal preference, D. Chromosomes and reproductive anatomy.”

“That’s a tough one,” BlazeTV host Stu Burguiere chimes in.

“At birth, how is a person’s biological sex typically identified? A. Personal feelings, B. Parental choice, C. Online registration, D. Visual anatomical observation and chromosomes,” Glenn continues reading.

“That’s a fascinating one,” Stu says. “I mean, obviously the answer is D, but I would say a lot of people on the left would say B, right, like it’s a parental preference or something.”

Glenn isn’t hopeful that any indoctrinated teachers will pass, adding, “This only gets hard if you are completely disconnected from science and reality.”

The war against child predators in Oklahoma classrooms



Oklahoma might be one of the deepest red states in the country, but that hasn’t stopped woke policies from infiltrating the school system.

Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters is leading the fight against the takeover, and he tells James Poulos on “Zero Hour” just how he plans to win the war for America’s future.

“It’s unreal how bad the problem is,” Walters tells Poulos. “When I first got into office, we banned pornographic material from the classrooms, we banned transgender ideology from the classrooms. I was sued by our own administrators.”


Walters was sued by the administrators to keep the books “Gender Queer” and “Flamer” in grade school classrooms — both of which contain pornographic material depicting homosexual relationships.

“Inclusivity? You want ‘Gender Queer’ and ‘Flamer’ in the classroom? You guys are the same ones that then turned around and sued me to keep the Bible out of the classroom. So it was inclusivity except when it came to the most read book in American history,” Walters says.

But it’s not just the books that has Walters concerned.

“I had two school districts, one of them sent out a handout to a classroom of high school kids asking them about their favorite sexual preferences in graphic detail, about which of these sexual preferences do they have,” he tells Poulos.

“That is completely inappropriate in the classroom,” he continues. “We have pulled over 100 teacher certificates from sending sexually explicit text messages or committing sex acts with kids in the state of Oklahoma.”

“We’ve had to pass all these rules, all these requirements, because of again, people that have crossed the line, people that have indoctrinated kids, and then people who have taken even a step further to engage sexually with kids, and that’s where we have got to protect our young people,” he explains.

And again, this is all happening in Oklahoma, one of, if not, the reddest state in the country.

“If we’re dealing with it in Oklahoma,” Walters warns, “I’m telling you, it’s happening in every state.”

'Enormous financial burden'

Three audits in a row: Why Trump must DESTROY the Department of Education



If Donald Trump really wants to change America for the better, he should set his sights on the Department of Education — which has just failed its third audit in a row.

“Instead of focusing energy and time on improving operations and student outcomes at every level, the education department in the Biden-Harris era has poured its resources into the student loan schemes and fulfilling every whim of the teachers unions,” Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx said in a recent statement.

Jill Savage of “Blaze News Tonight” is disturbed.

“Three audits in a row that the Department of Education has failed,” Savage says, adding, “Are we even surprised at this point in time?”


Oklahoma State Education Superintendent Ryan Walters is not surprised, but he is excited.

“President Trump is going to do away with this agency, number one,” Walters tells Savage and Matthew Peterson. “Number two, we went as a country over 200 years without a federal department of education.”

“We just so happened during that time to create the greatest country in the history of the world without a department of education. We’ve had one for 40 years, every educational statistic has gotten worse,” Walters explains.

“You’ve watched schools go from teaching patriotism, focusing on the basics, preparing kids for a workforce and a high quality of life to schools that turn kids to hate their countries, reject traditional values, and can’t even do the most basic skills,” he continues.

“Long answer to the question: I’m not surprised at all that they failed their audit,” he adds.

Bible to return to classrooms across Oklahoma, thanks to MAGA-friendly state superintendent



Many classrooms across Oklahoma will soon be furnished with a Bible, thanks to the work of state Superintendent Ryan Walters.

In a video posted to X on Thursday, Walters announced that more than 500 Bibles had been purchased to be placed in Advanced Placement government classrooms across his state.

"The Bible is back in Oklahomas [sic] classrooms," read the message attending the video. "We are getting our kids back on track."

Walters also hopes to expand the program and eventually place a Bible in every classroom. "We will not stop until we've brought the Bible back to every classroom in the state," he averred.

Ever since Walters mentioned this summer the idea of incorporating the Bible back into the classroom, liberals have been howling and stomping their feet, insisting that doing so would violate the so-called "separation of church and state" in America.

Though opponents have denounced putting Bibles in schools as some kind of civil rights violation, the state of Oklahoma is overwhelmingly Christian.

"The separation of church and state guarantees that families and students – not politicians – get to decide if, when and how to engage with religion," said Rachel Laser, president and CEO of Americans United.

"As a Christian, I’m appalled by the use of the Bible — a sacred text — for Superintendent Walters’ political grandstanding," railed Rev. Mitch Randall, a Baptist pastor in Oklahoma.

"This Bible mandate is a blatant power grab that violates state law and tramples the separation of church and state," added Daniel Mach, director of the ACLU Program on Freedom of Religion and Belief.

Last month, dozens of Oklahomans — backed by leftist groups like the ACLU, Americans United for Separation of Church and State, and the Freedom From Religion Foundation — even filed a lawsuit against Walters for allegedly using "tax dollars for religious instruction" that "would violate the important constitutional principle of church–state separation."

Not only is that phrase found nowhere in any of the country's founding documents, but Walters noted in his announcement Thursday that the Bible has had critical influence on American history and that keeping it out of classrooms on account of its religious content would deprive students of a well-rounded education.

To demonstrate the Bible's place among other key documents, Walters' office promised to provide a Bible as well as a copy of "the Pledge of Allegiance, the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution for every classroom in Oklahoma" as part of an ongoing effort to give students a complete understanding of their nation's history, KOCO reported.

Thus far, the 500 Bibles have cost the state about $25,000, according to Walters' spokesperson, Dan Isett. In all, Walters is willing to spend as much as $6 million to make sure that each classroom is outfitted with its own Bible, the Oklahoman reported.

Though opponents have denounced putting Bibles in schools as some kind of civil rights violation, the state of Oklahoma is overwhelmingly Christian. According to the Pew Research Center, fully 79% of residents living there identify as Christian.

The Oklahoman noted that Walters' call for Bibles in classrooms has been "legally-challenged" and repeatedly emphasized Walters' support for President-elect Donald Trump. Such support, however, is in keeping with the state he serves since every Oklahoma county voted for Trump in 2024.

Walters' name has been mentioned as a possible education secretary in Trump's second term.

State superintendent steps up after Oklahoma school district forbade teen to fly American flag from truck



The state superintendent of Oklahoma public schools has stepped up after a school district tried to prevent an Oklahoma teenager from flying the American flag on the back of his pickup truck.

A couple weeks ago, Caleb Horst arrived on the campus of Edmond North High School in Edmond, Oklahoma, with an American flag affixed to the back of his truck. Though the newly minted high school senior claimed the flag had been there "for quite a while," school administrators told him that the flag was against the rules and that he needed to remove it sometime in the next several days, Blaze News previously reported.

These reports should include 'specific measures' administrators are taking to 'integrate' these demonstrations of American pride into 'school culture.'

Edmond Public Schools, a district located just north of Oklahoma City, said at the time that, as a general "practice," students were forbidden to bring any sort of flag onto campus to ensure safety and prevent "disruptions and distractions during the school day."

At 7 a.m. on August 26, a group of more than 50 patriots from the school and around the community came out to Edmond North High School to protest the flag ban and to support Horst.

Now, Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters has intervened on behalf of Horst and other students of like mind and created guidelines for districts to protect students' rights to display the American flag.

According to Walters' new guidelines, all Oklahoma school districts must develop a policy that "ensures the U.S. flag ... can be flown and displayed on all school campuses without infringement." Walters also encouraged districts to adopt a policy that will promote a "respectful presentation of the flag" so that students and staff give the flag the "honor it deserves."

The guidelines further require districts to submit reports to the Oklahoma Department of Education about their new flag policies as well as their level of compliance with a state law mandating at least weekly recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. These reports should include "specific measures" administrators are taking to "integrate" these demonstrations of American pride into "school culture," said the letter detailing the guidelines.

"No school in Oklahoma should tell students they can't wave an American flag," Walters said in a statement released Thursday. "Americans have fought and died for the right to carry our flag, and no student should ever be targeted for exercising that right. Our young people should never have to fear displaying their patriotism and I will fight every day so that when our students want to express their love for America, they can do so boldly and proudly."

The letter from his office similarly stated that "no student should ever be targeted for their patriotism."

Meanwhile, the Edmond district continues to defend its previous ban on flags. In a letter issued since patriots gathered to protest the district's severe restrictions on the American flag, Superintendent Angela Grunewald claimed that the practice was implement seven years ago after the flag was being "displayed improperly and grossly disrespected," KOCO reported.

The district also insisted that its members are "proudly patriotic" and that they will work to create a clearer policy going forward, KOCO said.

Bible must be incorporated into education, Oklahoma state superintendent Ryan Walters orders



Oklahoma State Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters has issued a memo declaring that state schools must "incorporate the Bible ... as an instructional support into the curriculum."

"Effective immediately, all Oklahoma schools are required to incorporate the Bible, which includes the Ten Commandments, as an instructional support into the curriculum across specified grade levels, e.g., grades 5 through 12. This directive is in alignment with the educational standards approved on or about May 2019, with which all districts must comply," the memorandum from Walters to Oklahoma superintendents states.

'The left is upset, but one cannot rewrite history.'

"The Bible is one of the most historically significant books and a cornerstone of Western civilization, along with the Ten Commandments. They will be referenced as an appropriate study of history, civilization, ethics, comparative religion, or the like, as well as for their substantial influence on our nation's founders and the foundational principles of our Constitution. This is not merely an educational directive but a crucial step in ensuring our students grasp the core values and historical context of our country," the memo declares. "Additionally, the State Department of Education may supply teaching materials for the Bible, as permissible to ensure uniformity in delivery."

In a post on X, Walters noted, "Oklahoma kids will learn that the Bible and the Ten Commandments are foundational for western civilization. The left is upset, but one cannot rewrite history."

BlazeTV host Steve Deace responded by tweeting, "My man!"

"Good," Christopher Rufo tweeted.

"It's absurd that the Bible ever stopped being taught in schools. If you don't know what the Bible says, its history and teachings, you won't be able to understand Shakespeare, the American Founding, or anything else about western civilization. You'll just be ignorant," John Daniel Davidson commented.

Former President Donald Trump, the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee, has previously praised Walters in a post on Truth Social.

"Great job by Oklahoma State Superintendent Ryan Walters on FoxNews last night. Strong, decisive, and knows his 'stuff.' I LOVE OKLAHOMA!" Trump declared in the post last week.

Florida, Oklahoma Reject Biden’s ‘Illegal’ And ‘Unconstitutional’ Title IX Rewrite

Florida and Oklahoma instructed their schools to reject the Biden admin's new Title IX rules that allow men to invade women's spaces.
