The reverend at the National Cathedral prayer service for the inauguration called on President Trump to have mercy on transgender children and immigrant families in her sermon on Tuesday.
Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde said to Trump, who was sitting in the first pew, that millions of Americans have “put their trust in you” before making her plea to the president.
“I ask you, to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared. There are gay, lesbian, transgender children, Democratic, Republican, independent families — some who fear for their lives,” she said.
She added, “The people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings, who labor in poultry farms and meatpacking plants, who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants and work the night shifts in hospitals — they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation, but the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals.”

Hack!
She can go pound sand.
Hey bishop...
How many illegals can you put up at your place while the paperowork goes through?
It should be noted that she’s a Lesbian, or at least looks like one. Trump’s people missed the boat on this.
Trump should have asked her to open her church and feed and house these illegals, brain damaged Cross dressers. I can deal with homos who do their jobs and don’t draw.attention to themselves.
“Have mercy” means “let them mutilate their bodies.”
Where was your call for mercy when Trump was being persecuted?
They are lawbreakers. They have jumped to the head of the line. We admit 1.1 million legal permanent immigrants annually.
“they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation....”
EXACTLY! Thank you for making our point for us. 👍👌
too many! we could take a break on that
She needs to review what GOD visited upon SODOM & GOMORRAH...and WHY!!
When the dictionary adds the acronym AWFL, “Hers” is the face they will use for a picture.
“some who fear for their lives”
That is beyond the pale, utterly ridiculous fear mongering.
And all immigrants have to do is obey the law. Our family is full of immigrants from Germany, England and now Peru. All came legally and became naturalized citizens.
Why would the National Cathedral have a non-Christian as its pastor? Doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.
Trump will ignore her.
Which idiot staffer arranged for Trump and Vance to attend this nonsense? Whoever it was needs to be fired immediately.
The 2nd shortest verse in the Bible: Remember Lot's wife. Luke 17:32
The sodomites weren't the only ones who got zapped.
But all the illegal immigrants are.
