Lauren Boebert: “The church is supposed to direct the government. The government is not supposed to direct the church. That is not how…”

On the recordJuly 10, 2022
The church is supposed to direct the government. The government is not supposed to direct the church. That is not how our founding fathers intended it. And I`m tired of this separation of church and state junk. It`s not in the Constitution. It was in a stinking letter, and it means nothing like what they say it does.
