ICYMI — “We have no evidence this prayer was written or delivered by Thomas Jefferson.”
Speaker Johnson read a prayer today and attributed it to Jefferson, but Monticello says Jefferson never said it.

Lying is sacred to the GOP.
Jefferson believed in God, but studied other faiths and religions for their culture, morality and history. Not all things bend toward a single world view...thank God
If you have to lie to shore up your worldview that there's a God who disavows lying as a fundamental tenet of holiness, then what does that say about how your own God would view you? Take all the time you need.
Many more in his speech saying Trump UNITED 218 1/6/21 defenders of the House to stand form behind lil’ Magic Johnson.
Has anyone started a lie tally meter for this new congress?
I'm shocked 😲

*No personal opinion on this.
Trump era Republicans on the Founding Fathers and War of Independence are a curious phenomenon.
"Our army manned the air, it rammed the ramparts."
"It took over the airports" ...
(And via a time machine fast forward to 1814?)
"And at Fort Fort McHenry" ...

JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT LIES WILL FLOW FROM THEIR MOUTHS YND ASSES... A TOTAL SHIT SHOW...
EVERY ONE KNOWS IT. BEZO HAS AN STD
Does anyone else remember?
We cannot pseudonormalize this, it’s bonkers & moronic!
Just add salt.
Would probably make him say it’s fake since Jefferson edited his own version taking out all the miracles AND the resurrection.
Thomas Jefferson I swear
Who'd a guessed....
Making up things seems to be the norm. Actually with all of them. There will be a lot in the future. At this point, I don’t believe any of the crap the Republican Party utters.
- Thomas Jefferson
