NPR All Things Considered host Juana Summers spoke with Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde about her homily Tuesday, where she made a plea directly to President Donald Trump.⁠ ⁠ During a prayer service at Washington's National Cathedral Tuesday, the Episcopal bishop of Washington directly confronted President Trump while he and Vice President J.D. Vance were seated in the front row.⁠ ⁠ "Let me make one final plea, Mr. President," Budde said in her 15-minute sermon. "Millions have put their trust in you. And as you told the nation yesterday, you have felt the providential hand of a loving God. In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now," Budde said.⁠ ⁠ "There are gay, le***an and transgender children in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives."⁠ This came just one day after Trump issued a slate of executive orders, including one which has a section dedicated to "recognizing that women are biologically distinct from men," one that declared a national emergency at the country's southern border and issued several others related to immigration, including one attempting to do away with birthright citizenship.⁠ ⁠ Trump criticized Budde's remarks, writing after midnight Wednesday morning on his Truth Social platform: "The so-called Bishop who spoke at the National Prayer Service on Tuesday morning was a Radical Left hard line Trump hater."⁠ "She brought her church into the World of politics in a very ungracious way. She was nasty in tone, and not compelling or smart." 01/23/2025

Here’s a good human. Here is a hero. This is what that looks like for anyone seeking it. Grateful we have a reference because this is what we will need as we navigate the years ahead.
