Oklahoma Senate education committee shuts down MAGA nutcase Ryan Walters' $3 million Trump Bible Clown Show

 

Talk about waste in government!

Alex Henderson reports:

Oklahoma Superintendent of Public Instruction Ryan Walters, a far-right Christian nationalist, isn't backing down from his push to place Bibles in all public-school classrooms in his state — much to the chagrin of his critics, who argue that promoting fundamentalist Christianity in public schools is a violation of the U.S. Constitution's separation of church and state. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is a vocal critic of Walters' efforts. 
Walters' push is running into funding problems as well. 
The MAGA Republican is asking for $3 million to place Bibles in Oklahoma classrooms, but according to Oklahoman reporter Alexia Aston, an Oklahoma Senate Education Appropriations subcommittee "nixed" that request on Wednesday, March 5.
