As we covered on Friday, the big news to come out of last week’s State Board of Education meeting was Ryan Walters pandering for national media attention and notoriety by stating he was going to unconstitutionally force teachers to preach from the Bible in Oklahoma classrooms.
You know, typical PR-driven Christian Nationalist stuff.

No big deal, he's just trying to force all Oklahoma school districts to teach from the Bible.

Although that was the big headline, another strange occurrence from the school board meeting involved Ryan’s Austin-based puppet master, Matt Langston, leaving tiny ghost figurines along with a cryptic message for local journalists.
Check this out:
