Yesterday afternoon, we took a little look at the latest crony grifting scandal involving Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt.
As opposed to the Swadley’s Swindle, Class Wallet grift, and the various COVID, marijuana, and Center for Land Management schemes that have marred Stitt’s administration, this one involves Stitt’s friend, colleague, and former state employee, Bond “Pork Chop” Payne.
Here’s his X profile pic.
For what it’s worth, Pork Chop is the food-centric name / internet pseudonym that Bond chose for himself. If I were in charge, I would have gone with Egg White, Mr. Mayo or Gay Colonel Sanders.
Anyway, just like Governor Stitt, Bond was apparently not very appreciative of the Oklahoma Watch report that, pretty convincingly, detailed how he and Stitt did not reveal or disclose their personal and business relationships when it came time for a board to vote to give Payne’s firm a role tied to a potential $2 billion state investment fund.
