President Donald Trump plans to introduce new guidance for expanding "constitutional prayer" in public schools.
According to CBS News broadcaster Steven Portnoy, Trump's schedule for Thursday includes an announcement about guidance on constitutional prayer in public schools.
In addition to China trade deal signing on Wednesday, WH says Trumps week will include announcing guidance on constitutional prayer in public schools on Thursday.

The details of Trump's guidance were not immediately available but the president is on record suggesting that he wants to expand prayer in public schools under the guise of First Amendment rights.
On Saturday, Trump attorney Jay Sekulow condemned schools for practicing "Buddhist Meditation," which he said was different than "Christian meditation."

(6,075 posts)How do we define voluntary? Well, everything is voluntary when you get right down to it. I mean, if someone is holding a gun to your head telling you to pray, you always have the option of taking the bullet. Right?

So some Reich-wing Evangelical on the school board will use it as guidance to force prayer in school?
That will be challenged in court?
Where the plaintiffs will win? Again.
And who will sue the town for millions they cant afford?
Sounds like a plan!!!
