    Oklahoma will require teachers relocating from California and New York to take a 50-question test aimed at assessing whether they hold leftist political views that might influence their teaching.

    Developed by Prager University, the Oklahoma test, according to Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters, will have to be approved by the education board before it is administered. Walters said if applicants do not pass the test, they will not receive a teaching certificate.

    "Every teacher that teaches in the state of Oklahoma will have to have a certificate that goes through my office. It has my signature on it. So that those will not move forward until this is done," he declared.

    "One proposed question deals with gender - asking teachers to select from a series of multiple-choice answers which chromosome pairs determine biological sex," KCCI reported.

    "We will not allow these leftists' plans and schemes to take place here in Oklahoma," Walters said, according to KCCI. "They are trying to warp the minds of our kids to turn them into social justice warriors, instead of kids that are getting the most of their God-given talents to go get a good job, to go live a fulfilling life."

    "We're not bringing in woke indoctrinators into the classroom," Walters told The Washington Post. "It's a very America-first approach."

    "You're gonna teach that there's biological differences between males and females, period," Walters told CNN. "You're going to teach American history and use primary source documents, not pushing a left-wing agenda on to our kids." He added that California and New York have required teachers to "do things that are antithetical to our standards and values as a state."

    "Oklahoma already requires new teachers to take a U.S. citizenship test, which covers civics topics, to complete their certification," the Post added.

    Some other sample questions include:

    What are the first three words of the Constitution?

    Why is freedom of religion important to America's identity?

    What are the two parts of the U.S. Congress?

    How many U.S. Senators are there?

    Why do some states have more Representatives than others?

Now that President Trump is picking his cabinet and immediate staff to insulate him from the poor judgement of the Bureaucratic Class, while moving quickly to transition this Constitutional Republic unto a wise and sustainable direction: What is your immediate impression as to how our nation will prosper?
  We are headed toward a Golden Age in America's self-governed society.
  This will all wind up in a clustered mess since Trump is a Fascist, and thought to be the second coming of Adolf Hitler by our best journalists.
  This is a time where critical days lay ahead, where only wise and responsible decisions must be made to sustain US.
  I generally do not pay attention, but expect only the best to occur ... and that is what I always expect.
