The man in the White House announced Monday that God had placed him there, though he avoided placing his hand on the bible as he swore an oath.
He went to church Tuesday, something he almost never does, and heard Episcopal bishop Mariann Budde preach — to him.
He did not like what the bishop said to him in the name of the God he claims he represents. To wit:

William Lindsey :toad:
@futuredrstevie I'm glad that she cares, Bishop Budde — and many others who welcome her words.

Timothy 2:12: "I do not permit a woman to teach or to assume authority over a man; she must be quiet."
Corinthians 14:34-35: "Women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church."
William Lindsey :toad:
"It took the courage of one woman to change the conversation around Donald Trump."
And to those coming to this thread to scoff and laugh because this courageous woman speaks out of her religious conviction, let me say one thing:
We see you. We see how you amplify Trump by laughing at the courage of a woman speaking up against him.
And we won't forget.

"What Bishop Budde did, in this particular moment in time, was nothing short of extraordinary. Her sermon wasn’t just brave—it was an act of rebellion that exposed the fragility of tyrants."

"It was the reaction of Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA), though, that was most indicative of the current moment: He publicly called for the bishop [i.e., Bishop Mariann Budde] to be deported."

"ICE is here in parts of Detroit and some suburbs with many immigrants (Arabs and Latins), including Dearborn & Hamtramck.
They applauded & voted for Trump last fall.
Because: 'Gaza.' …
We tried to tell them.
They wouldn’t listen. That’s why swing state Michigan went to Trump, and last November, those people were happy and proud of how they made that happen."

"The White House Spanish-language website has disappeared, leaving behind an unsettling farewell for its users: a prominent 'Go Home' button. …
After clicking the "go home" button, users are directed to a montage of military imagery paired with triumphant music and cinematic shots of Trump, which leads to a page titled "America is Back."

"The reason this moment today popped out for me at least is that there are very few moments where culturally or religiously, I guess, we see people stand up and say, 'Actually, no, this is wrong, no, you shouldn't do this,' because we're in this very defensive crouch for anyone who's an opponent of what Trumpism is. So I think this is why this has got some resonance. ... And maybe that sparks other people to say something."

"While so many already-rich and already-powerful people line up behind Trump so that they might secure more money and more power, or at least protect the largesse they have, the good reverend risked her livelihood and potentially her life (and definitely her temporary wellbeing) in facing Trump publicly"

"And that you help those that are fleeing war zones and persecution in their own lands find compassion and welcome here. Our God teaches us that we are to be merciful to the stranger, for we were all once strangers in this land."
The man's response? He has called Bishop Budde "nasty," a word he reserves for uppity women, and he demands that she apologize.

"In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian and transgender children in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives.
The people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings; who labor in poultry farms and meat packing 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. They pay taxes and are good neighbors. They are faithful members of our churches and mosques, synagogues, gurudwaras, and temples.
I ask you to have mercy, Mr. President, on those in our communities whose children fear that their parents will be taken away."
