Oklahoma attorney general says state schools superintendent cannot mandate students watch prayer video
Oklahoma's attorney general said the state schools superintendent cannot mandate students watch a video announcing a new Department of Religious Freedom and Patriotism.
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.

If you are curious about the stupid video, this is it. I reported it for misinformation.
This video is bizarre. There’s a ton of static noise, there’s computer clicking, and it stops before he even finishes the prayer! I thought this was a screen grab with a live mic but then I saw that it was posted by the OK DOE.
