Bishop Confronts Trump on Immigration and Gay Rights: 'They Fear for Their Lives'

Jan 21, 2025 | President Donald Trump began his first full day in office attending a prayer service at the Washington National Cathedral.

The Episopal, Mariann Edgar Budde, pleaded with Trump during the service, asking the newly-election president to protect immigrants and respect gay rights. 'There are gay, lesbian and transgender children in Democratic, Republican and independent families, some who fear for their lives', she said as Trump and his family watched on. After the inauguration, Trump launched a sweeping immigration crackdown and promised mass deportations.
