During the National Day of Prayer Service, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde criticized President Donald Trump in a pointed sermon about illegal migrants and LGBT issues, deviating from the intended message of unity and support for the new administration. Instead of blessing the incoming leadership, she focused on societal divides, urging Trump to show mercy to marginalized groups. This public display sparked discontent among attendees, including Trump and his family, who displayed visible annoyance at the inappropriate nature of the remarks, overshadowing the spirit of the ceremony.
Addressing the new president, Budde asked for his "mercy" for illegal migrants and "transgender children" who "are scared now" that he is in office.
Her performative empathy did not extend to Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, Rachel Morin or the other women and girls raped and murdered by illegal migrants.
She patronizingly described migrants as "the people who pick our crops [and] wash the dishes."
But her performative empathy did not extend to...children abused and irreversibly mutilated on the altar of a gender ideology that no Christian church should support.
