Summary

Oklahoma’s Attorney General rejected State Education Superintendent Ryan Walters’ directive requiring schools to show a video announcing a new Department of Religious Freedom and Patriotism.

The video, which includes a prayer for Trump, was sent to schools and parents, but multiple districts have refused to comply.

The AG’s office called the mandate “unenforceable” and a violation of rights.

Walters, known for opposing “woke ideology,” also faces lawsuits over requiring Bible-based lesson plans and purchasing Trump-endorsed Bibles for classrooms, which critics argue breaches church-state separation.

      They say “kids who are homeschooled are more likely to have their parents values” and then decry brainwashing in school.

      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.
