Welcome to Fake News, this episode is a What If trip into the future. What If Texas’s Senate Bill 10, the law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in public-school classrooms, is signed by Governor Greg Abbott and survives the upcoming lawsuits?
This is a look into Miss Johnson’s grade school class at the beginning of the next Texas school year.
Teacher: Yes Billy Bob you have a question?
Billy Bob: On the poster over there, what does covet mean?
Teacher: Coveting means you want something so badly that you feel upset someone else has it, and you might want to take it unfairly.
Billy Bob: Oh! You mean like how President Trump is coveting Canada and Greenland for their rare earth minerals?
Teacher: That, is one way of looking at it.
Daisy: Miss Johnson, the sign says “not to covet” so, ain’t that wrong?
Teacher: I think it is more complicated than that. Yes, Mary, you have a question?
Mary: What is adultery?
Teacher: Well that is just a term used when a maried couple break their promises to each other.
Simon: You mean like when President Trump forked that porn star while still being married to Mrs President Trump?
Teacher: Forked?
Simon: My mama said to say fork and not fuck in school so I wouldn’t upset the teachers.
Teacher: Your mama is a wise woman.
Mary: Miss Johnson.
Teacher: Yes Mary?
Mary: It says not to kill.
Teacher: That is right Mary. Killing is very bad.
Daisy: So, how come Governer Abbott keeps killing prisoners?
Teacher: There’s the bell class, run outside and play!
