Have you seen this post over at Educational Equity, Politics, and Policy in Texas?

Patriot Mobile markets itself as “America’s only Christian conservative wireless provider.” Now the Trump-aligned company is on a mission to win control of Texas school boards.

Then, you read:

“The school boards are the key that picks the lock,” Bannon said during an interview with Patriot Mobile’s president, Glenn Story, from the floor of the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, in Dallas on Aug. 6. “Tell us about what you did.”

Story turned to the camera and said, “We went out and found 11 candidates last cycle and we supported them, and we won every seat. We took over four school boards.”

What’s more, Texas is already gerrymandered to favor Republican candidates and control. Women are denied healthcare they need. Book bannings continue, censorship by “Christians” is advocated and legislated. The Christian Nationalists are taking over PUBLIC school boards.

It’s enough to make one agree with the statement:

Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful.
