Trump to join national Bible-reading marathon at the Museum of the Bible

US President Donald Trump will participate in the week-long national Bible-reading event 'America Reads the Bible,' reading from 2 Chronicles during a marathon session at the Museum of the Bible in Washington (taped in the White House) as part of a conservative push to anchor Christianity in US public life ahead of the 250th independence anniversary. Other conservatives and administration figures like Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio will take part, and the coverage notes Trump’s ongoing public rift with the Pope over US Iran policy and his AI-generated images depicting him as Jesus.
