Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

I'm just wondering if Trump smells like 💩

It's telling that the self proclaimed Christians filling those pews would take offense to such a biblical message. The man who claims God spared him to become president again should heed her message.

Sometimes you just have to accept that there is nothing ‘going on’ in a head besides programmed response.

That takes courage. Good for her. I hope she stays safe.

It’s hard to beat those Midwestern girls!

This is how to speak truth to power. Well done, Rev. Budde.

This is about the bravest act of resistance I can imagine and that I’ve seen from anyone thus far. We must protect her at all costs.

lawrencemc.bsky.social•50 days ago

Unlike the super rick trump fart smellers the Bishop is not afraid of standing up to trump.

uofagrad97.bsky.social•50 days ago

She’s an intelligent woman. She’s probably wondering if it’s worth it.

Ivanka squirming is good. She's mad this was brought up.

Melania's thinking...I a'int getting paid enough for this...

Vance’s wife and entire family were democrats till she married him. I’m sure she’s embarrassed by the way they talk about immigrants.

My new hero!

What she really thinks doesn't matter in the least. She is complicit.

atticus59914029.bsky.social•49 days ago

Well it may. Things are not so simple when dealing with a spouse and marital relationship. We cannot know what goes on there. Nor can we know what the future may hold for her.

vs-phd.bsky.social•49 days ago

As someone who's been married for 25 years, I understand what you're saying. But there are real lines in the world too. If my wife *actively and publicly* supported a fascist like Trump I'd divorce her immediately.

atticus59914029.bsky.social•49 days ago

All I can say to this is I’m thankful @mrsemilyfinch.bsky.social and I are of one accord on this matter.

fpoons.bsky.social•50 days ago

Newsmax is having a normal one over this.

willifs.bsky.social•50 days ago

If looks could kill, the Bishop would have dropped dead from M's look alone. How sad she is casting such evil eye considering her own immigrant status & that of her family. Mercy and grace are foreign concepts to this 1st family.

carbonatedobserver.bsky.social•49 days ago

I think their reactions have been very telling that they all know better, and they hate being reminded of the fact that they have compromise themselves in every way.

exploreyourworld.bsky.social•50 days ago

Agree. She seems to take into account what is being said.

westtxwoman55.bsky.social•50 days ago

I bet she won't be Bishop this time next year.

tonylfuller.bsky.social•50 days ago

Incredibly bold.

aaron-pajak.bsky.social•49 days ago

Yeah I thought the same. Vance’s wife was the only one here who clearly was listening to every word. Clearly the only one who has kindness left in her.

onlyhuman24.bsky.social•50 days ago

I don’t see anger. I see evil smirks. Of course, it fits. Let’s pay a game about these fine “Christians”. See if you can pick out who’s who of the Seven Deadly Sins: Pride, Greed, Wrath, Envy, Lust, Gluttony and Sloth (hint - you may use multiple names for each since most fit more than one)
