500 bibles for $25,000? That's $50 per Bible that were 100% made in China for about $3 each. Someone report this to DOGE!

Jesus fucking Christ. I don’t know where to start.
Start with the acronym. DrFAP.
Always remember, and never forget... it's a cult.
The video, which includes a prayer for Trump
Fucking excuse me?
This has been their MO for years. A good documentary called "Jesus Camp" was made in like 04. It was about a children's religious summer camp. It ended with a bunch of children praying to a literal life sized cardboard cut out of W Bush. Those kids are like 30 now and likely have their own kids. They're just so fucking weird.
Must be a typo. That should say "to Trump".
Just like in north Korea...
If you are curious about the stupid video, this is it. I reported it for misinformation.
This video is bizarre. There’s a ton of static noise, there’s computer clicking, and it stops before he even finishes the prayer! I thought this was a screen grab with a live mic but then I saw that it was posted by the OK DOE.
Same
the party of "stop indoctrinating the kids" fixing to fucking brainwash the fuck out of the kids
Obligatory "every accusation is a confession" from the GOP ("Gaslight Obstruct Project").
The thing is they see christian values as the default. As the historical, centuries old standard. It can't possibly be brainwashing to live to the values of your forefathers right?
So they see everything new as suspicious by default. And if it's new and counter to the historical values they espouse, it's deviant and "indoctrination" by new, inauthentic standards.
Obviously this is all bogus, but it's the dance they do.
They say "kids who are homeschooled are more likely to have their parents values" and then decry brainwashing in school.
Says the party of rapists
And now it goes to SCOTUS and SCOTUS declares this a Christian country and then all kids will be mandated to pray in school.
America is swirling around the bowl and heading down the pipe fast.
It won't go to SCOTUS because the AG would have to defend it for it to go anywhere.
Please fight hard. Please win hard.
Yet.
And to be clear, the guy pushing this directive is possibly getting tapped to run the Department of Education. I am so fucking glad I didn't/won't have children. Sorry parents who voted against this.
These stupid fucks hollering about wokeism and then ushering in the bible. I hope people see through this.
Spoiler! >!We will not.!<
I'm waiting for the new federal Morality Police Force to be announced.
