Oklahoma's Ryan Walters needs to go start a church and leave students alone.

Rolling Stone:
Trump won the 2024 presidential election, but the idea that he has a broad “mandate” to do whatever he wants is pretty dubious given that as of Monday he didn’t even crack 50 percent of the popular vote. Nevertheless, the president-elect’s elected followers are behaving as if the rules no longer apply — from Republican senators readying themselves to punt on their “advice and consent” role in vetting Cabinet nominations, to Oklahoma Ryan Walters Superintendent Ryan Walters ordering the state’s schools to play students a bizarre video of himself railing against the “radical left” and praying for Trump.

The video mandate comes as Walters — who has long been using his position to push right-wing extremism into schools — has been under scrutiny for ordering the state’s schools to keep a Bible in each classroom and teach that “the Bible and the Ten Commandments are foundational for Western civilization.” The order was handed down this summer, and bid documents stipulated that the Bibles must include founding documents that also happen to be included in a Bible that Trump started selling for a whopping $60 a piece earlier this year.

Walters seemed to confirm on Monday that the money went into Trump’s pocket. When asked him why he’s using the Trump Bible, and what he has to say to critics who call it “clear-cut political pandering,” Walters said he needed to buy the Trump Bible so kids “can understand the full context of the founding documents.”
