WASHINGTON _ Faith leaders told President Donald Trump at a private meeting at the White House this week that they saw the Democrats' impeachment efforts in Congress as an attack on their conservative agenda, several attendees told McClatchy.
Trump's meeting on Tuesday with at least 25 faith leaders from around the country was not on his public schedule, however it was acknowledged by a brief White House statement later that day.
Johnnie Moore, a member of the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom who attended the meeting, said faith-based leaders vented about the impact of impeachment efforts on their legislative priorities and that the sentiment was, "they're trying to impeach us."
