And he's selling Bibles. You'd think the religious people would be pissed, but he says he's anti-abortion and he's a Trump, so it's all good.

Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, and the Pledge of Allegiance." - Unfortunately, it is too much to hope that the people who buy it might actually READ those documents and actually understand them!

of a King James bible. What a scam.

If there's any passage they "accidentally" leave out, it'll be the bit about the moneychangers in the temple.

What about when Daddy said we need to SUSPEND the Constitution - or is IT not included?
Do we tear out the pages?
Do we get a refund?

And another thing....

This 'Pledge' - is it the ORIGINAL or the 'REVISED' - you know, the one where they LATER added the "under God" part........

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/retropolis/wp/2018/06/14/the-gripping-sermon-that-got-under-god-added-to-the-pledge-of-allegiance-on-flag-day/

It is included - remember "suspend" isn't permanent! We needed to suspend it so Daddy could be rightfully sworn in as President and then he was going to immediately unsuspend it! He pinky promised!

29. The Pledge of Allegance was penned by a socialist
Sat Dec 31, 2022, 08:42 PM
Dec 2022
Francis Julius Bellamy (May 18, 1855 – August 28, 1931) was an American Christian socialist Baptist minister and author.[1] He is best known for writing the original version of the Pledge of Allegiance in 1892.
...
Bellamy was a Christian socialist[1] who "championed 'the rights of working people and the equal distribution of economic resources, which he believed was inherent in the teachings of Jesus.'"[6] In 1891, Bellamy was "forced from his Boston pulpit for preaching against the evils of capitalism",[3] and eventually stopped attending church altogether after moving to Florida, reportedly because of the racism he witnessed there.[7] Francis's career as a preacher ended because of his tendency to describe Jesus as a socialist. In the 21st century, Bellamy is considered an early American democratic socialist.[8]

But if the fools who buy this actually read the constitution and DOI, they might even learn something about how this government works, or is supposed to work.

You gave away the 'Super-Secret' plan that Rudy and Keri Lake have been working on for, well, now that you've given it away, they just may think it was their idea - and Kevin McNutty and Gym Jordan may put it into a bill - and you KNOW Empty Greene will claim it was HER idea.....

His name is Dan Gookin, and he’s politically about where Biden is. Very good man for stopping the serious Trumpites from doing especially stupid shit.

Is there any documentation that he ever had title in the first place?

I don't think that there is really any more to it than selling a cheap bible, probably printed overseas, for seventy bucks. At least that is a proposition I can wrap my head around.

He got cleaned up for the photo, where he stands with arms outstretched like a preacher. But his face — I looked at his eyes to see if we were going to get the “dead eyes” expression, but instead his whole face looks … sad.

you know... if we all left America (and let's throw in Canada too) and removed all the people and all the human made structures, all the highways and dams and buildings, and left it all to maybe just the Native Americans... or no people at all... really give it all back to God, it would be a good thing.

(meaning that the words of Jesus are printed in red).
Of course that's sarcasm -- I couldn't care less. But it DID give me an idea.
What if the J6 Report was printed as a 'red letter' edition? So that every sentence and phrase that was attributed to Trump was printed in red? The criminality would jump right out at you!
