State’s bid cites requirements that $60 Trump-endorsed God Bless the USA Bible appears to be tailor-made to meet
Oklahoma’s top education official is seeking to buy 55,000 Bibles for public schools and specifying that each copy contain the Declaration of Independence and US constitution, which are not commonly found in Bibles but are included in one endorsed by former president Donald Trump.
The request is part of Republican state superintendent Ryan Walters’ ongoing efforts to require Bibles in every classroom, which has been met with resistance by some of Oklahoma’s largest school districts.
Walters is seeking to spend $3m in state funds for Bibles that fit a certain criteria, including that the pages are supplemented with US historical materials. The Bibles must also be “bound in leather or leather-like material for durability”, according to state bidding documents posted this week.
And from what I’ve read by people who really know watches, they’re pieces of shit too.
I mean, yeah, it’s a drop ship front designed to be a money laundering pipe for foreign agents to send money to a Trump business. The product doesn’t actually matter.
Oh yeah, I expected nothing else. I just think it’s funny that watch collectors and experts took one look at them and said, “yeah, that’s a piece of shit.” They didn’t even have to see the insides.
