… Who write “Profiles In Courage” back in 1955? John F. Kennedy and I recommend adding another name to the list, Bishop Mariann Budde. You know who she is? She is the bishop who stood up and told Trump to his face… You back off attacking minorities during a sermon at the Presidential inauguration mass. OHHHHhhh… did Trump do a slow burn.
U.S. president calls the clergywoman a “Radical Left hard line Trump hater,” “ungracious,” “nasty” and “not compelling or smart.”PoliticoBy Seb StarcevicJanuary 22, 2025U.S. President Donald Trump hit out Wednesday at a bishop who directly called on him to show mercy to immigrants and LGBTQ+ people.During the inaugural prayer service Tuesday at the Washington National Cathedral attended by Trump, Vice President JD Vance and their families, the Right Rev Mariann Budde delivered a sermon in which she appealed to Trump to be merciful to minorities, “some who fear for their lives.”“In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy on the people in our country who are scared now,” Budde said, referring to “gay, lesbian and transgender children in Democratic, Republican and independent families.”Most “immigrants are not criminals,” she added. “They pay taxes and are good neighbors.”Trump hit back in the early hours of Wednesday on his social media platform Truth Social, calling Budde a “Radical Left hard line Trump hater” who is “not very good at her job” and demanding an apology.
Have you noticed something? The right-wing Christians constantly preach against us from the pulpit, not only us but also undocumented immigrants, and other minorities. It seems to me that he got some of his own medicine.
Budde has clashed with Trump before, writing an opinion piece in The New York Times in 2020 saying she was “outraged” and “horrified” by his use of the Bible “for his political purposes” amid racial justice protests following the murder of George Floyd by a police officer in Minneapolis.Trump sat stone-faced throughout Budde’s sermon and later told reporters he didn’t think it was a “good service,” while Vance appeared incredulous at the bishop’s remarks.
Yeah but he still will be a jerk. He still will be the same, and I bet he will seek vengeance on her somehow. And I will also bet you that he will never set foot in that church again.
The backlash of Trump's Executive Order that was so poorly write that technically it makes everyone a woman! You see it say that you are the gender at conception and every fetus starts off as female and it isn't until 7 or 8 weeks later that testosterone washing over the fetus to convert the fetus to male.
This is still America. Freedom of speech and religion. Bishop Beede is only saying what more than half of Americans feel. I’m still in shock that Pumpkin Head won. Freeing the Jan. 6th criminals is not a good thing. I hope these years fly by fast.
