Did The Bible Get Carla Hayden Fired—It Should Have, by Their Logic

To: Sen. Cruz, Lt. Gov. Patrick, Sen. Hughes, Pres. Trump, Sen. Cornyn, Rep. Moran, Rep. Dean, Gov. Abbott

Carla Hayden was fired for being too RADICAL and too WOKE. And what was her crime? Refusing to ban books that make people think. Books about justice, mercy, equality, compassion. You know—the dangerous stuff. They didn’t ban the Bible. They never even mentioned it. But if we’re being honest? If they applied their definition of “woke” fairly, the Bible would’ve been first on the chopping block. It tells people to LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, BLESS THE POOR, WELCOME IMMIGRANTS, and FORGIVE DEBTS. It warns against greed, calls out corrupt leaders, and says the last shall be first. It talks about sex, power, lies, and injustice—and somehow never once condemns abortion. And “HOMOSEXUALITY ”? That word DIDN’T APPEAR in any translation until 1946. CAN YOU IMAGINE? And yet Carla Hayden made that book—and thousands like it—accessible to everyone. She allowed the Library of Congress to house it in over 700 LANGUAGES, more than 3,000 VERSIONS, digitized, preserved, protected. Even Jefferson’s miracle-free remix. But in this administration? That’s grounds for termination. So if we’re really going to start banning books and firing people over “wokeness,” then go ahead. Put your career on the line. Ban the Bible. Otherwise, stop punishing people for living Christian values—compassion, justice, humility—just because they threaten the hate and division this GOP and administration seem hell-bent on using to destroy everything America is supposed to be. FISH ROTS FROM THE HEAD. And this administration and this GOP REEKS!
