Comedian Trolls 'Moms For Liberty' By Reading Bible Passages At School Board Meeting

Walter Masterson recently read sexually violent passages from the Bible, which is available for children to read in school libraries, to troll the conservative 'Moms for Liberty' group at a Central Bucks School District board meeting.

Comedian Walter Masterson had social media users cheering after he trolled the conservative organization Moms for Liberty by reading sexually violent passages from the Bible, which is available for children to read in school libraries

Moms for Liberty has made a name for itself by campaigning against school curriculums that mention LGBTQ+ rights, race, and discrimination—but has been accused of hypocrisy for its promotion of "Christian values" while ignoring the often violent and sexually explicit passages in the Bible.


Masterson read the Bible passages at a recent board meeting for the Central Bucks School District in Pennsylvania, which has been infiltrated by right-wing members endorsed by Moms for Liberty.

He said:

“I brought with me today a book that is available to children of all ages in the school’s library. This book is filled with overt sexual acts of violence, it celebrates mass killings, and it’s being used to indoctrinate our children.”

You can see the video below.

Masterson cited Exodus Chapter 4, verses 24-26:

“The Lord tried to kill Moses but Sephora used a sharpen stone and cut off their son’s foreskin and rubbed the bloody ring on Moses his feet, saying ‘You’re now my bridegroom.’ This made the Lord leave Moses alone."

He then read Exodus Chapter 21, verses 20-21:

“If a slave owner beats a slave, male or female, with a stick so severely that the slave dies, immediately the slave owners should be punished. However, if the slave survives a day or two, he should get back to work. The slave is the owner’s property."

Right after that, he read the following from Genesis Chapter 6, verse 7:

“The Lord regretted ever creating human beings and He was sad. So the Lord said, I will wipe all of the human race off the face of the earth, and while I’m at it, I’ll kill the livestock and the crawling things too. Even kill all the birds in the sky. I will say never created any of them in the first place."

Masterson then referenced a recent decision by the Republican-led school board to raise the salary of district superintendent Dr. Abram Lucabaugh—who has advocated book bans—from $229,500 to $315,000 while paying teachers below market standards:

“Do you think a child should be reading this book, full of sexual violence and genocide? Books don’t belong here at all."
"Ban this book. Let’s focus on science, math, and raising administrators’ pay.”

Lucabaugh, aligning himself with the conservative majority on the school board, has fully embraced their policies, including the prohibition of Pride flags, the removal of LGBTQ+-inclusive books, and the constriction of LGBTQ+ topics in classrooms.

He has said there is "absolutely no reason for anyone to engage students in conversations about their sexual habits, their sexual preference, or their sexual orientation" and threatened to fire educators who run afoul of his directives.

Many appreciated Masterson's masterful trolling.

Moms for Liberty was founded by Tina Descovitc and Tiffany Justice, two Florida Republican women who ran for school board seats and gained notoriety for railing against COVID-19 restrictions in schools, including mask and vaccine mandates.

Over the last couple of years, the group has infiltrated school districts as part of a larger campaign by Republicans to energize conservative voters, particularly in school board elections.

In late 2021, the group's New Hampshire chapter sparked significant controversy after it announced that it would pay a $500 bounty to the first person to catch a teacher breaking a new law that bans specific kinds of teaching about race, racism, and gender.

Ocasio-Cortez, speaking during a CNN town hall alongside Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders, accused Republicans of refusing to work to end the government shutdown, stressing that the country’s health care system could collapse if Republicans refuse to meet Democrats’ demands in negotiations.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
