Before we dive into today's article, I want to let our fans, readers, and enemies who live in Eastern Oklahoma – otherwise known as the state's "lawless zone" – know that we're pulling for them, and keeping them in our thoughts and prayers as they try to ride out these times of absolute anarchy and chaos.
Well, at least that's how the Daily Caller wants to try to portray things.
Yesterday, the right-wing propaganda outlet's "Investigate Group" – a real, non-satirical thing I didn't just make up – produced an investigative report on how the McGirt decision has "Turned Half Of Oklahoma Into A Lawless Land."
Check this out:
A 2020 Supreme Court decision to turn over nearly half of Oklahoma to Native American tribes has effectively turned the eastern portion of the state into a lawless zone.
The McGirt v. Oklahoma decision has meant that “nothing” would be done in less serious cases, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Oklahoma field office Edward Gray previously said, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Yep, you can now get away with "less serious crimes" in Eastern Oklahoma. That sound you just heard was Brent Swadley running outside to fire up the smoker and launch a restaurant chain in Tahlequah!
