Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth read a fake Bible quote from Quentin Tarantino's 1994 movie Pulp Fiction during a prayer service at the Pentagon on Wednesday.
Was it ever really a thing though [in the US]? Like aren’t presidents sworn in on a Bible or something? And it says something about God on the money? And the pledge of allegiance? (The USA is a cult, btw)

That all changed during the “Red Scare” in the 1950’s. Swearing in on a bible is optional and lower offices have used e.g. a Quran in the past.
President can be sworn in on whatever document they want.
Heck, they may not even need a document. If I’m elected in 2028, I’m getting sworn in on the Epstein files.
