The Washington, D.C. priest who delivered a sermon during a church service attended by President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance is facing backlash for the content of the message. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde, the first woman to hold the position of Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, delivered a sermon that has sparked controversy.
During the National Prayer Service at the Washington National Cathedral, an Episcopal Church, Bishop Budde's sermon took a liberal stance that some have criticized as divisive. The service, a long-standing tradition that follows the presidential inauguration, was attended by Trump, Vance, and their families.
