There's no controversy. It's unconstitutional. They know it. Bye.

The Communist Manifesto is an important historical document, why don’t we put that one on display in classrooms.

So glad I spent almost every dollar I had to flee Louisiana just a few weeks ago. The Deep South is lost.

“In god we trust” was added to our money in 1955, not by the founding fathers, just her deflecting from the actual question.

These people learned their morals from posters on the wall and their history from statues in the park.

Faith Family Freedom Fascism

The “Don’t look at it” is so annoyingly ironic. Hey lady, you don’t like the LGBTQIA+ don’t look at them, oh wait y’all can’t seem to take your own advice.

All of a sudden they’re against Parent’s Rights

This woman is extremely defensive and belligerent because she know what she's doing is wrong...

“If you could reason with religious people, there wouldn’t be any religious people”.-David Mitchel

It's astonishing that you can be this unhinged on TV and get elected in any state

The hypocrisy of criticising schools for their important role in the education regarding social inequality and sex while mislabelling the aforementioned education as 'indoctrination' then simultaneously actually trying to indoctrinate children is insane.

I'm not Muslim, but I would bring a prayer rug and pray 5x a day right in front of those commandments. I would then pull out the Torah and begin reciting passages, and end with loud reading from the Sanatist Bible. Then watch how offended the theocratic Christian fascist get when other religions are upheld on school grounds.

They cut right before the best question. He asked her, "How does a teacher explain adultery to a 3rd grader?"

I love how she brings up "In God we trust" being on money like it wasn't chritofascists like her in the 1950s that passed the law mandating it be on the money.

Life long Louisiana resident here, and I didn't think we could get more embarrassing than Senator Kennedy. I now stand corrected.

Ah yes. Nothing says “freedom” like FORCING public schools to display a set of Christian beliefs in every classroom. 🙄

Teachers of Louisiana: *Tell the Grade 1 students what 'adultery' means.* See how the parents like that.

"have an option" well it's not an option it's mandatory

I want a granite stone in my yard with the code of Hammurabi carved on it.

"Look, you can give me a thousand hypotheticals, but I'm telling you now, I'm not capable of empathy."

When this woman says she can't fathom hypotheticals...I believe her.

Excuse me, Moses is what now? Christo Fascism is so unhinged!

Also, the ten commandments was specifically for the Jews, not Christians. Jesus's sacrifice was undoing the old laws given by god from original sin, which includes the ten. So by doing this, they are saying that Jesus's death meant nothing. Ironic

Damn, a CNN anchor FINALLY not taking any crap and being neutral and just FLOORING a slimy, lying politician on air! BRAVO, Boris Sanchez!

I'm so fed up with these lunatics

I'm going to watch "IDIOCRACY" again just make sure that it was a film and not a documentary.

She is the kind of cracy you sould leave out of the public.

This Karen probably doesn't care if kids spend their days in school starving and malnourished

The First Amendment of the US Constitution and the first Commandment of the Old Testament are not compatible. Full stop.

I love(hate) how openly they announce their ownership of everyone’s children. If a kid doesn’t have the 10 commandments at home, it couldn’t be because that was a deliberate CHOICE by that child’s parents, rather it must be because they simply haven’t heard of THE TEN COMMANDMENTS before! And simply reading them on a wall at school will transform their lives? She is telling everyone in plain terms their ulterior motives.,

It’s like he’s arguing with a literal child.

“We believe in freedom” is that why you’re forcing every child to look at your religious document?

the disdain she has when she barks out "don't look at it!" is really telling, omg, imagine your rep talking to you like that.

Louisiana is # 49 in education! We are how many states? The constitution says it is not legal! ✅

You can't reason with fundamentalists! Her version of historical documents differs from mine. She is flouting the 1st amendment, so no respect for this historical document?

In Louisiana, the public school has the poorest education system and funding! The state is one of the poorest!

She should be impeached

I like that he has to explain to her what a hypothetical is and she still doesn't get it.

It’s a dying and sad belief system when you feel that you have to state sanction your beliefs in order for the people to see them. They cry that their ugliness and worship of the orange man is driving people from their faith and this apparently is the only way to force feed it to them like bad tasting medicine. It’s such an easy fix, too. If I’m a teacher I’m putting it up with quotes from Greek, Roman and Norse Mythology. If a child asks….i just tell them that all fictional myth permeates are history. The only place I fight back is when my child comes home asking me why their teacher is creating a curriculum or even a class one day based off of it. Time to take away religious tax breaks.

Freedom of religion = freedom from religion

The first amendment to the constitution directly contradicts the first of the ten commandments

I live in Louisiana. I’m from Louisiana. I’m an atheist. I’m not comfortable with it at all. Also “In God We Trust” wasn’t added to the pledge and paper money until the 1950’s. I didn’t agree!!!!

These people are helping destroy religion so keep up the good work Karen

Thou shall not support the GOP!!!

I’m so tired of these people

1. If I was a teacher in this state I would lawyer up and would absolutely refuse to post it up. Threaten or Fire these teachers? To time sue the district, and the government. 2. If a teacher doesnt want to go that route, lawyer up and post ALL OTHER religious commandments from ALL other religions. Every. Single. One. 3. All these teachers again, lawuer up and protest.

i wouldnt even wipe my butt with that "very important document"

I wonder why she couldn't answer how she'd feel if her children had to study in a classroom with Islamic law hung on the wall 🤔

Can we finally just immediately remove every judge who doesn't immediately declare this law unconstitutional?

Seems like we are going to need to choose .... sanity or fascism.

They will continue to wonder why their young people move from the state and don’t return.. and they will wonder why they never see their grandchildren.

she cant even gaslight correctly

They're trying to be weasely by calling it a "historical document."

She's horrible

This woman, like most people trying to rationalise MAGA proposals, has absolutely no idea how to justify her position based on either the Constitution or established law. She cannot understand other examples that would require her to comment on such a ruling if the document was from a non-Christian religion. --- On another track, I love how CNN is able to semi-mute her mike while she's interrupting the question from the moderator.

This lady has crazy all over her

The bible is in not a historical document.

"Might require a magnifying glass to read!" "Large, easily readable font"

Never knew the Ten Commandments were a historical document. Always thought they were a set of religious rules.

In this episode, Louisiana would like to remind everyone that it's not just Florida that is batshit insane. "I'm sick of Ron DeSantis getting all the headlines. We're crazy christian weirdos too!"

If history is important to them, they should teach about slavery and the aftermath of it accurately.

If you want to teach your children religion, you take them to church!

"Bayou Bobert" 😅🤣😭 I want that switched on a pillow. 😌

Oh dear, first MTG, then Boebert, now this Karen.

If the country is so “out of control with crime,” as she says, then why is she passing a law that she knows will be challenged in court instead of passing a law about crime?

Not surprisingly, Louisiana ranks 49th in public schooling.

4:44 that wasn’t the national motto until the 1950s in reaction to secular communism

Wow. That woman is so ignorant and utterly incapable of empathy that i really dont think shes even able to follow Boris' line of questioning; unable to imagine being the 'x' student sitting in classrooms in a school surrounded by a document, held up by the state, that is contrary to your world-view and beliefs.

Vote for clowns-you get a circus.

Bet. If they're gonna have that, then they need a two room space for the prayer rugs, a place for the students to burn incense, a Buddha poster or statue available for students, a nondescript shrine room for kids to be able to bring their religious paraphernalia, and any indigenous ceremonies is an immediate get out of class free pass. Oh, and everyone can wear their regalia to school. If you're gonna be about it, be about it.

She talks like a real-life Firecracker, from The Boys

Stupidity is dangerous.

No. And I don't care how mad they get. NO.

"Thou shall have no other gods besides me." With that listed as the top... Holy hell is this going to cause problems.

Louisiana is like 40th in education in the country.. perhaps they should direct their energy to where it is actually needed

This woman broke a Commandment twice in this interview. She coveted the interviewer's pay.

He did that interview really well. He led her right to the ability to understand other people's perspective and she very visably declined it.

Politics in Canada scare me. This shit is utterly terrifying.

It's quite telling that whenever these troglodytes are questioned they start throwing fits and insulting others like this Karen did here.

This lady demonstrated that she doesn't understand what a hypothetical is on live television

Saying the bible is a historical document is literally a joke. I have a degree in biblical exegesis and calling rhe bible a historical document is ridiculous.

Boycott Louisiana!!😡

"Louisiana has done something insane"... Meanwhile, water is wet, fire is hot, the sky is blue, etc.

Start small and get bigger and bigger....they started with putting it on our money and they have been trying all other ways...they are happy that the supreme Court is in their favor and they are going to try this more often now

They can't be expected to focus on real unsettled issues. These useless bureaucrats would rather keep beating the same old tired, settled fights, because they have no plan or concerns with the country's future...😢😢 SAD!!!

Galaxy Quest is the most important "historical document"

They always skip the Beatitudes. Blessed are the poor, The Meek shall inherit the Earth. You know, the Jesus stuff that Christians always forget.

I remember someone from Louisiana saying, "We have to stop being the stupid party."

As a Christian I wonder why it’s the ten commandments and not the beatitudes! Ohhhh right we wouldn’t want our students to hear “blessed are the poor for theirs is the kingdom of heaven!”

If Louisiana was honest, Voodoo casters circle would be on every floor and elder shrine in every class

Ah, Moses. Famously legislative.

Time for Baphomet to make an appearance.

Bring on the 7 tenets of the satanic church. I One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason. II The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions. III One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone. IV The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own. V Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs. VI People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused. VII Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

When my mother was alive, and before I left home, and while I lived close to her, we went to church several times a week, because because of summer school training, choir rehearsal, congregation meeting, council meeting, let me tell you, I was the most pompous, arrogant, lacking in understanding and self-awareness asshole. I’m still a Christian. I still belong to the same denomination. I took some seminary classes and one hit me in particular, which was called, honoring our neighbors. It was an eye-opener we had to study all the various religions as much as we can. I realize we are all gods people and our job is to be good to one another. Christians need to stop thinking that they were superior. Just like most Jews are learning now that we are all equal. The Oregon supremacist Zionist are not true Jews. Christianity got Trinity from Hinduism. Brahma, Vishnu, Krishna (god the father and benefactor; God protect the and destroyer; got a son who brings love and harmony and understanding) Christmas and Jesus’s birth has to do with the winter solstice Easter is the worship of the fertility god that dates back to the pharaohs in Egypt All the pretend fax in the Bible are myths. Neither David nor Solomon no Saul had massive kingdoms. They were all tiny tribes that gathered in Egypt at the far end of the Nile delta during famine. The parting of the Red Sea never happened Every single story in the Bible in the Old Testament are fake. Historians have searched over 2000 years to try to convince us that the patriarchy and white supremacy will save us. Most of the world at that time were matriarchal & did just fine.

Wow, she is bonkers. 😂

I'm Canadian, and although this didn't happen to me, I have a story about being subjected daily to something you don't believe in. I had a friend in high school who took it into his head to spend a summer at the Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani, the home of the famous Cistercian monk Thomas Merton, to engage in the practice of silence and contemplation. He came home after a month. One of the things he said made him feel really uncomfortable was that they were all required to recite the Pledge of Allegiance every morning. A Canadian kid. A Catholic monastery. A daily political statement. Over the decades, Canadian politicians have tended not to wear their religion on their political sleeves, but especially in recent years, the evangelical virus has been seeping across our southern border, and some right-wing politicians have been sucking it in and spewing it out, and a lot of we Canadians don't like it at all. Not one little bit.

Shouldn't they follow them instead of just posting them in class? Which republican follows them? NONE

I am a Christian. I have two felonies and been to prison 3 times. Knowing the ten commandments did stop my dumb decisions

Concerning "In God we Trust" on the paper currency= it was not until 1957 that this phrase appeared on paper money. This occurred after Congress passed House Joint Resolution 396 (ch. 795, 70 Stat. 732) on July 30, 1956 which established a national motto. The 16 word resolution states “the national motto of the United States is hereby declared to be “In God we trust.” However because of technological changes, this phrase did not appear on all currency until 1966 - 174 years after the establishment of the U.S. Mint “To put such a motto on coins or to use it in any kindred manner, not only does no good but does positive harm, and is in effect irreverence, which comes dangerously close to sacrilege.” - President Theodore Roosevelt
