Oklahoma's state superintendent buying hundreds of copies of Lee Greenwood's "God Bless the USA" Bible--the ONLY Bible endorsed by President Donald J. Trump!--for classrooms across the state is such a Matryoshka doll of performative grift that I may truly lose my mind

We had the rule of law.
We had checks and balances.
We had free and fair elections.

MAGA is fascinating. You can show them where the rake is. You can show them video of exactly what will happen if they step on the rake.

An open authoritarian ranting about "root[ing] out ... vermin" in describing his domestic political opponents. Has already said he wants to round up people in camps and prosecute his enemies. Could be president again in 436 days.
