I thought the same thing. In fact while Trump was dancing with the Village People two of the village people kissed on the lips. I didn’t see Trump freak out. He continued to use the song last night. I don’t see why people are afraid unless they have been listening to the left’s continuous fearmongering. I felt more fear during the last four years than ever before in my life. Fear of the spread of diseases that have been manufactured to make us sick and the medications created to keep us sick. My fear isn’t over, but I have some hope now.
Me, too . . . and I spent several years trying to help friends and family with links to doctors treating covid, etc. I gave away my own stash of IVM over and over. I was told not to attend certain gatherings, etc. Not one person has said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong."
No one has apologize to me either. Not even the mayor of the city of Boston, who mandated the injection for me to go anywhere, including just to go to a restaurant, while she allowed performers at the big venues, and their staff, to go without. But if I wanted to go to those same venues I had to be injected.
I can't begin to imagine what it was like living in a city with a mayor who mandated these shots to go anywhere. Even just reading your comment makes my heart rate increase. Somehow we have to let go of the anger and the fear, but it's no easy thing. I live in Texas in a rural area, so I was spared from a city-wide ban. It was bad enough, but my heart goes out to anyone experiencing what you did.
Cheryl - so evil. The only solution I can think of to stop stuff like vax passes, is for everyone to refuse to comply. Sadly, so many people got fooled. It’s so wrong.
Yep. When the local Menard's home / lumber store manager and one of his female tattler's insisted I wear a mask I refused and gave 'em hell. I had been jabbed and it mattered not a bit to them-- mask up.
That was April 2021.
I walked out not entering again for many months and still I go to Home Depot instead-- back only when a product is unavailable elsewhere.
They are forever now on my BLACK list; I had bought 10's of thousands of $$ of goods over the last 30 years. Screw them and the horse they rode in on.
I have blacklisted many corporations with my financial advisor for DEI / woke policies.
it really bugs me when I consider all the girls who buckled under when "trans/ queer" boys joined their team or opposed them on another team and they failed to stand as a TEAM against it; should have all walked out of the arenas! However, their damn, woke coaches are who REALLY failed-- as it is they, the "leaders" in public education, who FAILED those kids and led them to bow to this garbage.
Exactly. Good example. It’s not hard to realize that if every girl on a team and every coach refused and pushed back, this wouldn’t happen. People have got to buck up amd stop worrying about things being awkward. I think it’s called ‘courage’.
Yeah, I, an old guy, was rudely ordered out of Menards by some punk who I set in his place and told him to get the manager who I also set straight, not that it did any good, nor did I expect it to.
Wouldv'e gone to Home Depot but people were standing in a long line and all were masked. They were only letting a limited number of people in at a time. More fools; no thanks.
I can't stand the concept of Amazon, so I made do with what was available and am not a bit sorry for that.
All "big box" enterprises with their special (government) pampering and privileges can go straight to (bleep). In fact, the concept of corporations and their "limited" or non existent liability needs to be abolished along with a whole host of other things like the "federal" gubmint, especially Obamacare, parasite bailouts, and the "Federal" "Reserve."
Me too Cheryl! I was an ICU nurse for 18 mins during the pandemic. I eventually had to retire early at age 59 because I couldn’t stand the constant “take the jab” pressure and the lack of care patients got on the front end that led to their death in the ICU where I was. My brother says to me when I tell him to not take the boosters “when are you going to get over it? It’s been four years already!” I’ll get over it when RFK, Jr is confirmed and we have an NIH and CDC and “experts “ that are held accountable for what they did to us.
So, you think Big Pharma wasn't trying to keep people sick and diseased before 4 years ago? Come on, this isn't new. We'll find out if this new administration will actually avoid caving into the big money flowing in from lobbyists and pharmaceutical corporations. Maybe RFK can get something accomplished. But, Trump did nothing in his first term to address or improve the FDA, CDC, Big Pharma influence. He helped rush and usher in the Covid vaccines. I have a little hope, but want to see actual results. I want to see Trump prioritizing what's actually important. Changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico is not important to most citizens.
I don’t think most of us understood the subversiveness and corruption of the federal health agencies until after the COVID crisis. We can’t blame Trump for that. He listened to the wrong people. I believe he chose RFK to right that wrong. I think Americans are united to see that he accomplishes the this goal. I have hope!
As far as the comments from the archbishop, she is just another ideologue who doesn’t understand Gods design. Leave the LGBTQ community alone to live the way they desire. However, please stop shoving their lifestyle down our throats. We don’t care. However, stop those who are trying to groom our young people to question their gender. It’s just sick!!
"We can’t blame Trump for that. He listened to the wrong people..."
He has a brain, doesn't he? Are you saying he's too clueless to have at least some rough ideas about how the system has been working since forever, and that he needed something to tell him what to think? It did not take a genius to see what a farce the whole thing was.
At the very least he should have had enough street smarts to know when some "advisor" was attempting to blow him a smoke enema.
Oh I know it didn’t start 4 years ago. But what did start 4 years ago was me waking up. My hope is that Trump will listen to RFK Jr. Also, I don’t think Trump will mandate vaccines. I hope for a lot of things. But, I do agree with you. I still think that we have less to fear with this administration than the last. After all, who knows who was actually running the country, I doubt it was Biden. It’s their agenda for us that is truly nefarious and worrisome. And that is actually my point, it is what people should be scared of. Not Trump himself , but it depends on what and whom you listen to.
a bad sign was yesterday's presser Trump held with 3 billionaires, Oracle's Larry Ellison described an example of how these combined 3 companies' huge half a trillion $$ project will bring AI to medicine-- including its use in near instant mRNA(yes, he USED that term!) vaccines for solving an individual's potential cancer "infection" in short order.
Likewise, we have never heard Trump backtrack on OWS-- Operation Warp Speed -- for the mRNA poison. . . and we never will.
It is my belief Trump used RFK, Jr. to catalyze and bring surety to his election but, will neutralize him to the extent he will resign in less than a year. I pray I am wrong. . .
I know an infectious disease specialist who's a good guy, but remains totally brainwashed despite my numerous challenges, such as "how can you endorse what the likes of Gates and Fauci are promoting?"
One commenter said something that makes sense to me. Perhaps RFK is waiting until he gains access to the CDC and FDA files to fill in the gaps in his knowledge of the perpetrators and their crimes before going after the corruption in the CDC and FDA.
In the last four years I have felt exactly as you've described . . . more fear than ever before. To see and understand what they did to humanity is like nothing I ever could've imagined. The maniacal actions of relatively few worked because the majority of people are followers and are either unwilling or incapable of questioning "the authorities". I pray that more people find the courage to wake up and stay awake. I have hope, but we must never let our guards down.
This is what happens when you have a practicing non-Christian as a President and there's nobody interested enough to ensure no jackass is the officiant at the changing of the guard. I get that the National Cathedral is the organization that's going to send in their guy (or of course in the case of Episcopals, a girl), but surely this situation could have been avoided. Maybe the good minister got kicked in the head by a rabid squirrel while she walked up Wisconson and she woke from her fevered sleep of wokeness.
Just shows Trump getting fooled again- he just doesn’t get it- there are few people you can trust. Look at his rally? His golf game? I mean he needs to form his own tight group with no leaks
I don't think her use of mercy was the same that Jesus would practice. I think she's asking for legitimacy for transgenders and for turning a blind eye to the invasion at the border. She wants Democrat policies to continue.
Didn't the Christians who were fed to the Lions have the same views as this Episcopahlian? I am not interested in being fed to the lions for anyone's religious views. Trump may not be perfect but I am glad he is the new president.
I don't think so, Fred. They refused to deny Christ as their Savior and Lord. That woman's god is herself. Seth Gruber has a great clip where he compares the views of the pro-abortion people and the LGBTQ people. Jesus said, "This is my body, broken for you." The aforementioned people say, "This is my body and I will do with it as I please. God has no authority over me."
No they did not. Read St. Paul's commentary on homosexuality, cross-dressing, marriage between a MAN AND WOMAN, and the necessity of subjecting oneself to law, think illegal immigration.
Well, that doesn’t accord with his attitude to hypocrites, nor with his action getting stuck into the money changers with a cord in the forecourt of the temple. That doesn’t sound too woke to me!
She's completely out of touch with reality, saying LGBTQs are fearing for their lives. Trump has said nothing and done nothing to justify that, and plenty to discredit that take. The same can be said for virtually all of his supporters.
She's a clueless, destructive, divisive nutjob. Anyone who defends her words is the same.
I thought she was supposed to be praying to God? She was scolding President Trump, not in conversation, but in a one way monologue from her Leftist bully pulpit. Did she come from the Episcopal church or from a synagogue of Satan?
Like a terrorist hiding behind innocent civilians, the Left pretends to be compassionate as a disguise for tearing down western civilization. This time we did not get fooled again!
Satan to answer your question. Also Trump and his team are aligned with mRNA "deviloment". A giant pusher of big pharma unfortunately. I hope he proves me wrong on that but it is leaning that way.
I feel that Trumps wish is to use technology to improve medicine and MRNA is one direction that might someday get us there however to date it has a legacy of costly failure in human lives. It needs to stay in the lab for now.
It will never work- too many side effects and the carrier molecule is inorganic in nature (purposefully), so it never ever breaks down. It should never be applied to the human body . It changes DNA by use of reverse transcriptase and forever has altered the DNA of the offspring of those who volunteered to have it administered. It’s directed misapplied scientific experimentation on human beings with the intent to have the body fail on itself over time. It doesn’t look purposeful. Slow poison. And if you have cancer- you died from cancer and not the expensive chemo or the mRNA treatment.
No! You think MRNA might improve things? Excuse me, but are you insane? Every bioweapons lab needs funding cut off and destroyed. I guess you’ve been successfully bamboozled by the propaganda. Open your eyes and wake up.
Was it Dr Malone who was the designer of it yet came out against it? Trump got booed for his stance early on. I think he distanced himself now or he would not have appointed RFKJr
Didn't Jesus preach for mercy and compassion for those downtrodden, discouraged and in fear? That's what I was taught growing up. Her words were pretty similar.
Galatians 1:8 "But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed." That describes the Church of England in all its forms of apostasy.
If certain targeted groups are fearful, they should stop listening to the groups targeting them. The political Left, who is working to destroy western civilization, targets certain groups and fills them with fear.
It is not merciful to agree with a transgender's idea of reality. It is not required that we open our border and allow anyone in, as we have for the last few years.
Yes He did but He also said “come unto Me all you are weary and heavy laden and find rest for your souls for My yoke is easy and My burden is light”. Referring to the burden of sin. And further said “No man comes to the Father except through Me”. He is the Mediator and King over all. This woman bishop needs our prayers for her repentance and salvation through Christ alone.
Yes however he also said to follow the bible's moral teachings which an LGBTQ... lifestyle conflicts with. Downtrodden is one issue, ignoring the bible's teachings is another.
Jesus came to set people free. He was moved to action by his compassion for those in bondage. He brings healing (physical and emotional) , deliverance (from evil - like demons), and FREEDOM!
Luke 4:16-19 MEV
[16] He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day. And He stood up to read. [17] The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. When He had unrolled the scroll, He found the place where it was written: [18] “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; [19] to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.”
And now the Roman Catholic Church under the appalling misrule of Bergoglio is following the exact some path that made the Church of England a shipwreck instead of an ark of the Christian faith.
Yes, the Soros organization took over the Catholic Church many years ago. They removed Benedict and replaced him with a Marxist. All planned. We Catholics need to witness to this evil and chase the Marxists from the sanctuary.
Personal, private conversation with a high government official of one of the color revolution countries who was personally involved (working with Soros) in the effort to take over the church. We spoke of details of the operation, and I told him he would not succeed as long as Benedict XVI was pope. Four months later Benedict was no longer pope. No links. Just firsthand knowledge.
Who on earth chose this pathetic human for this prayer breakfast? That snakey person who did the organizing needs to be weeded out immediately from Trump's orbit. This was sabatoge.
I was baptised in Sydney in Church of England. I had to be told at a wedding that I was best man at, by the Catholic priest, that my church had changed it's name to Anglican. He wasn't impressed 🤷 Even the pastors do not believe in God in my rebranded ex-faith. Every church conspired against the human race when they all urged Emergency Authorisation Use mRNA Gene Altering therapies, untested, without any liability or Corporatocracy oversight. 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
I was horrified about how the ScoMo government completely capitulated to the Spike Covidians. And the most shocking thing I saw was that madman of a First Minister of the Northern Territory who was threatening to imprison people merely for questioning the scamdemic and the so-called “vaccine.” I have a great love for the Australian people but complete contempt for the various governments there who seem to do everything except serve their people.
AussieManDust, you say that, "Every church conspired...when they all urged Emergency Authorisation Use...."
To say that "they all...." is way wrong. Consider, for example, the open letter FROM Curate Jamie Franklin and Rev. William Philip, TO Prime Minister Boris Johnson, presented AT Unherd, on YouTube, on April 20, 2021.
The open letter eloquently presents the case against "a medical apartheid in which an underclass of people who decline vaccination are excluded from significant areas of public life".
The open letter had been signed by 1,533, as of May 10, 2021. We do well to remember them.
By the same token, John Leake, to give up on an entire Church because of one bishop delivering a poorly-written homily on a bad day (she could have/should have done better), is giving up on your own local churches. If you visit some of them, I believe you will find some kind of meaningful fellowship.
What people call "woke" now (which is the most overused word on the planet) is actually extremely similar to what Jesus preached in his day to day life - sympathy for the downtrodden, scared, discouraged people.
The word "woke" or "wokeness" is so over-used that it's losing it's meaning rapidly. It now refers to almost everything a conservative disagrees with. The word is used so much it's run into the ground and squashed. What did you have to talk about before you had this word to use? Woke is used to describe a rally or march for something you "don't" agree with. But, if you agree with the purpose of a march or rally, it's not a "woke" event. You see a TV commercial with a black and white married couple having coffee in a coffee shop, the company is being "woke". You walk down a city street and pass by an inter-racial married couple walking into a coffee shop and it's just a "couple", not a woke thing. It's just way overdone and ridiculous using this word to describe nearly every thing that might be societal change.
How about the 15k+ that died in Western North Carolina, totally on purpose and not being reported?
The tens of millions of illegals were trafficked here by the UN and by primarily Catholic, Methodist and Jewish NGOs (USING OUR TAX DOLLARS!) as part of an unconventional warfare campaign to collapse the United States to bring in China Model Global Communism. Is that how you want to live?
There have already been hundreds of thousands of casualties and deaths, due to this unconventional warfare operation. 300,000 minors who went missing since Biden took office; either sex-trafficked, otherwise enslaved or organ-harvested. You want more of THAT???
It is disgusting and it is the OPPOSITE of Trump's fault. It is the fault of the insane Woke, who are working through the US Federal bureaucracy, the NGOs to collapse civilization and to kill, not just the victims of human trafficking ("illegals") but 95% of the world's population.
All we know is what someone said he said. Given the various levels of translations, errors in transcription and plain old human deviousness we'll never know what he said or meant. Heck most of us have no clue about what someone said an hour ago even if we were there! Point is, he can be made to have said practically anything by anyone at any time, and then there are legions who'll "interpret" what he was supposed to have said to fit their own, often perverted, agendas. Covid should have taught us all to trust few, if any, "authorities, especially quacks, corporatists, and clergy.
I do, however, rather like the story about driving the money changers out of the temple. Now that's a great example of "love thy neighbor," and one that ought to be practiced more often.
I agree that no one really knows what was said as the Bible was written by males and many things lost in translation. But, unfortunately many people take it literally as the direct word of God, when it's human interpretation and re-telling.
Are you possibly saying the people who walked and talked with Him were originally chickens and ran away then decided to die for Him because they became cultists?
I admit that I was hoping somebody would do something like that…anything, other than sitting there, trying to be polite to someone who definitely didn’t deserve it. Melanie is very skilled at ignoring stuff, but I noticed that even she finally started glaring at this ridiculous person.
Decline of the Episcopalian church has gone on for decades. They left their biblical foundation in favour of their liberal agenda. This woman bishop is typical of their demise. The Bible specifies the requirements to be a bishop and one is to be the husband of one wife. Hardly fitting for a woman even if she thinks she is a man. Also the promotion of homosexuals right from their archbishop down, is totally against scripture. They are not a Christian organisation but simply a religious one.
The Episcopalian Diocesan Conferences, which we are required to attend, are full of Leftist drivel. The male Bishops say the exact thing that this woman said, and worse, like speaking with outrage about the "murder" of George Floyd. It is torture to sit through a couple of days of this. I stay in this church because the people in our congregation are just the best. Most of us in our small church are down to earth Conservatives, except for our wonderful priest (who from time to time gets too political).
Don't you think that we as Christians have an obligation to hold the "church's" feet to the fire? My husband and I are going through a similar issue about leaving our church because the pastor and his wife think they have all authority to dictate their will to the congregation. Our by-laws state otherwise. Anyway, I did stumble upon some information, "The Doctrine of Lesser Magistrates." Interesting stuff. I think we have an obligation to God to protect the church from being usurped.
Our pastor this fall was championing a book for all to read: The Myth of a Christian Nation" Dr. Greg Boyd. Summary: He wants people in the church to restrict themselves to the church and not be active politically to resist pressure by the state regarding anything, including abortion, civil rights, gender confusion. What the bible says is only relevant inside and not outside your 'church'.
Not only do I believe that we have an obligation, but I believe one day we will have to answer for our complacency and lack of commitment to the truth.
This is the usual sanctimonious virtue signaling leftist monologue that lacks any reason or purpose. Its gone beyond annoying and Im not having it. My compassion is reserved for the abused children and victims of the pedophiles and those defend them
Wearing her useless mask does not protect her from the virus of ideological idiocy. The only member of the clergy of the Church of England for whom I have any respect was Archbishop Laud whom the Roundhead Calvinist extremists had to use a Bill of Attainder in order to murder him since no court of law could convict him of any crime. He and Charles I were therefore martyrs since both sought to save English Christianity from the excesses of Calvinism.
I believe the woman, Budde, simply suffers from what most people do who have a glimpse of the limelight today. She feels she must enlarge her part to become a world savior. She's in the spotlight. She's the Star of the Show!! Instead of focusing inward and sussing out her motives for such a tirade, she sallies forth with nary a hint of hesitation. She might discover that she wallows in conceit, arrogance, and ego if she genuinely confronted herself. I would imagine the role of any clergy upon inauguration of a president would be to pray for his wisdom, strength, and fortitude in carrying out his duties while placing a blessing upon the nation.
It's a bit more complex. The christian church has a very very long history of castration and gender destruction in monasteries and nunneries. People trying to escape gender is common in religious society. Having compassion for the weak and oppressed *is at the core of christianity. The bit I dont understand is 'lesbian and transgender children' tho. The LGBTQ people took this stuff way too far and now we see a backlash, I guess.
If they "fear for their lives" any more than the rest of us do, it's probably some combination of mental illness and woke nincompoops preaching the litany of oppression and existential threat to them. This twat should be known hereafter as Bishop von Munchausen.
I feel like an early Church member must have felt during the reign of Mary Tudor, privately reading my Morning Prayer service, praying alone.
I miss participation with others but I’ll pray alone rather than go to a church where I’m harangued about reparations by a masked virtue signaler.
Even during the 1980s and the early days of AIDs when no one was quite sure of all the ways it could be spread, we shared one cup during communion.
I stopped attending regularly after the masks, sterile gloves, paper plate with one wafer held at arm’s length for me, no cup, became the regular practice during the recent plague/Fauci syndrome.
I pray for the return of faith to our bishops and clergy, that we turn back to Jesus, take solace in our beautiful liturgy, embrace one another in the spirit of Christ’s peace, and fear not.
This person is a disgrace and has trash talked Trump publicly many times before. Someone on Trump team (intentionally?) dropped the ball. But loved JDs evil eye glare.
I thought the same thing. In fact while Trump was dancing with the Village People two of the village people kissed on the lips. I didn’t see Trump freak out. He continued to use the song last night. I don’t see why people are afraid unless they have been listening to the left’s continuous fearmongering. I felt more fear during the last four years than ever before in my life. Fear of the spread of diseases that have been manufactured to make us sick and the medications created to keep us sick. My fear isn’t over, but I have some hope now.
My fear was the vax pass- we had places here you had to show you were jabbed! “Show me your papers!” I swear I have ptsd
Me too.
I never took the poison needle and I was discriminated against because of it.
Me, too . . . and I spent several years trying to help friends and family with links to doctors treating covid, etc. I gave away my own stash of IVM over and over. I was told not to attend certain gatherings, etc. Not one person has said, "I'm sorry. I was wrong."
No one has apologize to me either. Not even the mayor of the city of Boston, who mandated the injection for me to go anywhere, including just to go to a restaurant, while she allowed performers at the big venues, and their staff, to go without. But if I wanted to go to those same venues I had to be injected.
Those people should be called out and held accountable.
I can't begin to imagine what it was like living in a city with a mayor who mandated these shots to go anywhere. Even just reading your comment makes my heart rate increase. Somehow we have to let go of the anger and the fear, but it's no easy thing. I live in Texas in a rural area, so I was spared from a city-wide ban.

Same. Nasty business.
I most definitely have PTSD. It’s hard enough working in the ER/ICU already.
Cheryl - so evil. The only solution I can think of to stop stuff like vax passes, is for everyone to refuse to comply. Sadly, so many people got fooled. It’s so wrong.

I have blacklisted many corporations with my financial advisor for DEI / woke policies.
My hat reads: "Do Not Comply."
Thanks for sharing. What you are doing (refusing to comply) is the ONLY solution, it seems. If only everyone would do so.
it really bugs me when I consider all the girls who buckled under when "trans/ queer" boys joined their team or opposed them on another team and they failed to stand as a TEAM against it; should have all walked out of the arenas! However, their damn, woke coaches are who REALLY failed-- as it is they, the "leaders" in public education, who FAILED those kids and led them to bow to this garbage.
Exactly. Good example. It’s not hard to realize that if every girl on a team and every coach refused and pushed back, this wouldn’t happen. People have got to buck up amd stop worrying about things being awkward. I think it’s called ‘courage’.
Yeah, I, an old guy, was rudely ordered out of Menards by some punk who I set in his place and told him to get the manager who I also set straight, not that it did any good, nor did I expect it to.
Wouldv'e gone to Home Depot but people were standing in a long line and all were masked. They were only letting a limited number of people in at a time. More fools; no thanks.

Noone of that will ever happen, thogh!
Yup
Everyone won't refuse to comply. Too many people still believe in it. They just refuse to believe, or even read, any of the documents. It is sad
Or just plain ignorance
Me, too, on the PTSD. The rampant tyranny that unfolded before our eyes has forever changed my point of view.
Me too Cheryl! I was an ICU nurse for 18 mins during the pandemic. I eventually had to retire early at age 59 because I couldn’t stand the constant “take the jab” pressure and the lack of care patients got on the front end that led to their death in the ICU where I was.

VictorDianne Watson - well said! All this ‘pride’ nonsense is beyond annoying. Whatever happened to ‘live and let live’?
"We can’t blame Trump for that. He listened to the wrong people..."

First time I couldn’t go places without a vax pass- or a mask. But yes hospitals, docs, and pharma (nursing homes too) disgusting human beings
Totally dense.
I know an infectious disease specialist who's a good guy, but remains totally brainwashed despite my numerous challenges, such as "how can you endorse what the likes of Gates and Fauci are promoting?"
Shocking.
One commenter said something that makes sense to me. Perhaps RFK is waiting until he gains access to the CDC and FDA files to fill in the gaps in his knowledge of the perpetrators and their crimes before going after the corruption in the CDC and FDA.
I think a litmus test change will be if Trump/Kennedy reverse Reagan’s 1986 National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act.
agree
In the last four years I have felt exactly as you've described . . . more fear than ever before. To see and understand what they did to humanity is like nothing I ever could've imagined. The maniacal actions of relatively few worked because the majority of people are followers and are either unwilling or incapable of questioning "the authorities". I pray that more people find the courage to wake up and stay awake. I have hope, but we must never let our guards down.
Remember what JESUS said about fear many times. We were not promised an easy ride til He returns. Keep your guard up, He's got you.
Who invited that tiresome ninny to perform at the inaugural?
This is what happens when you have a practicing non-Christian as a President and there's nobody interested enough to ensure no jackass is the officiant at the changing of the guard. I get that the National Cathedral is the organization that's going to send in their guy (or of course in the case of Episcopals, a girl), but surely this situation could have been avoided. Maybe the good minister got kicked in the head by a rabid squirrel while she walked up Wisconson and she woke from her fevered sleep of wokeness.
Just shows Trump getting fooled again- he just doesn’t get it- there are few people you can trust. Look at his rally? His golf game? I mean he needs to form his own tight group with no leaks
Trump is a Peale-ian, however that aPeale to you.

Who'd a thunk?
If asking for mercy and consideration for those simply afraid, discouraged or downtrodden is woke, then Jesus was an ultimate woke person.
I don't think her use of mercy was the same that Jesus would practice. I think she's asking for legitimacy for transgenders and for turning a blind eye to the invasion at the border. She wants Democrat policies to continue.
Didn't the Christians who were fed to the Lions have the same views as this Episcopahlian? I am not interested in being fed to the lions for anyone's religious views. Trump may not be perfect but I am glad he is the new president.
I don't think so, Fred. They refused to deny Christ as their Savior and Lord. That woman's god is herself. Seth Gruber has a great clip where he compares the views of the pro-abortion people and the LGBTQ people. Jesus said, "This is my body, broken for you." The aforementioned people say, "This is my body and I will do with it as I please. God has no authority over me."
No they did not. Read St. Paul's commentary on homosexuality, cross-dressing, marriage between a MAN AND WOMAN, and the necessity of subjecting oneself to law, think illegal immigration.
She could have left it at that, without the DEI special treatment.
Well, that doesn’t accord with his attitude to hypocrites, nor with his action getting stuck into the money changers with a cord in the forecourt of the temple. That doesn’t sound too woke to me!
She's completely out of touch with reality, saying LGBTQs are fearing for their lives. Trump has said nothing and done nothing to justify that, and plenty to discredit that take. The same can be said for virtually all of his supporters.
She's a clueless, destructive, divisive nutjob. Anyone who defends her words is the same.
Did you see the marching band? I happened to be flipping thru and they seemed to be almost twerking.
She’s the Bishop of the Diocese where the Nat’l cathedral is located. She brought herself in.
I thought she was supposed to be praying to God? She was scolding President Trump, not in conversation, but in a one way monologue from her Leftist bully pulpit. Did she come from the Episcopal church or from a synagogue of Satan?
Like a terrorist hiding behind innocent civilians, the Left pretends to be compassionate as a disguise for tearing down western civilization. This time we did not get fooled again!
Satan to answer your question. Also Trump and his team are aligned with mRNA "deviloment". A giant pusher of big pharma unfortunately. I hope he proves me wrong on that but it is leaning that way.
I feel that Trumps wish is to use technology to improve medicine and MRNA is one direction that might someday get us there however to date it has a legacy of costly failure in human lives. It needs to stay in the lab for now.
It will never work- too many side effects and the carrier molecule is inorganic in nature (purposefully), so it never ever breaks down. It should never be applied to the human body . It changes DNA by use of reverse transcriptase and forever has altered the DNA of the offspring of those who volunteered to have it administered. It’s directed misapplied scientific experimentation on human beings with the intent to have the body fail on itself over time. It doesn’t look purposeful. Slow poison. And if you have cancer- you died from cancer and not the expensive chemo or the mRNA treatment.
Fred, maybe you did not see Trump's presser with the 3 billionaires yesterday.
Oracle's Larry Ellison 'trumpeted' how everyday cancer diagnoses will be done nearly instantly using AI applied to mRNA vaccines!
Yikes.
Trump did not learn; will not learn.
Guessing here but expect RFK Jr.'s plans for Healthcare revisionism to be sidelined. I pray I am wrong.
No! You think MRNA might improve things? Excuse me, but are you insane? Every bioweapons lab needs funding cut off and destroyed. I guess you’ve been successfully bamboozled by the propaganda. Open your eyes and wake up.
Was it Dr Malone who was the designer of it yet came out against it? Trump got booed for his stance early on. I think he distanced himself now or he would not have appointed RFKJr
Didn't Jesus preach for mercy and compassion for those downtrodden, discouraged and in fear? That's what I was taught growing up. Her words were pretty similar.
Galatians 1:8 "But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed." That describes the Church of England in all its forms of apostasy.
If certain targeted groups are fearful, they should stop listening to the groups targeting them. The political Left, who is working to destroy western civilization, targets certain groups and fills them with fear.
It is not merciful to agree with a transgender's idea of reality. It is not required that we open our border and allow anyone in, as we have for the last few years.
Yes He did but He also said “come unto Me all you are weary and heavy laden and find rest for your souls for My yoke is easy and My burden is light”. Referring to the burden of sin. And further said “No man comes to the Father except through Me”. He is the Mediator and King over all. This woman bishop needs our prayers for her repentance and salvation through Christ alone.
Yes however he also said to follow the bible's moral teachings which an LGBTQ... lifestyle conflicts with. Downtrodden is one issue, ignoring the bible's teachings is another.
Jesus came to set people free. He was moved to action by his compassion for those in bondage. He brings healing (physical and emotional) , deliverance (from evil - like demons), and FREEDOM!
Luke 4:16-19 MEV
[16] He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went to the synagogue on the Sabbath day. And He stood up to read. [17] The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to Him. When He had unrolled the scroll, He found the place where it was written: [18] “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted, to preach deliverance to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; [19] to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.”
https://bible.com/bible/1171/luk.4.16-19.MEV
So how are they freed of bondage and we need to define it?
Did JESUS teach inclusiveness or did He actually warn of it?
And now the Roman Catholic Church under the appalling misrule of Bergoglio is following the exact some path that made the Church of England a shipwreck instead of an ark of the Christian faith.
Yes, the Soros organization took over the Catholic Church many years ago. They removed Benedict and replaced him with a Marxist. All planned. We Catholics need to witness to this evil and chase the Marxists from the sanctuary.
I fully believe that sometime in the future Church historians will record Bergoglio as an anti-Pope.
Oddly enough, I believe one pre-historian captured the moment. See Fr. Benson's 1907 The Lord of the World.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_of_the_World
link please?
What link were you seeking?
Soros organization took over the Catholic Church
Personal, private conversation with a high government official of one of the color revolution countries who was personally involved (working with Soros) in the effort to take over the church. We spoke of details of the operation, and I told him he would not succeed as long as Benedict XVI was pope. Four months later Benedict was no longer pope. No links. Just firsthand knowledge.
whoa. No clue what a color revolution country is. . .
Amen, Sean.
Freemasons?
Who on earth chose this pathetic human for this prayer breakfast? That snakey person who did the organizing needs to be weeded out immediately from Trump's orbit. This was sabatoge.
I was baptised in Sydney in Church of England. I had to be told at a wedding that I was best man at, by the Catholic priest, that my church had changed it's name to Anglican. He wasn't impressed 🤷 Even the pastors do not believe in God in my rebranded ex-faith. Every church conspired against the human race when they all urged Emergency Authorisation Use mRNA Gene Altering therapies, untested, without any liability or Corporatocracy oversight. 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
I was horrified about how the ScoMo government completely capitulated to the Spike Covidians. And the most shocking thing I saw was that madman of a First Minister of the Northern Territory who was threatening to imprison people merely for questioning the scamdemic and the so-called “vaccine.” I have a great love for the Australian people but complete contempt for the various governments there who seem to do everything except serve their people.
And yet it is the Australians you love that are electing these criminals to power. At some point you have to start blaming them.
Maybe you should investigate how our voting and political system works before you criticize Australians.
good one.
"pot calling the kettle black!"
January 22, 2025
AussieManDust, you say that, "Every church conspired...when they all urged Emergency Authorisation Use...."
To say that "they all...." is way wrong. Consider, for example, the open letter FROM Curate Jamie Franklin and Rev. William Philip, TO Prime Minister Boris Johnson, presented AT Unherd, on YouTube, on April 20, 2021.
The open letter eloquently presents the case against "a medical apartheid in which an underclass of people who decline vaccination are excluded from significant areas of public life".
The open letter had been signed by 1,533, as of May 10, 2021. We do well to remember them.
By the same token, John Leake, to give up on an entire Church because of one bishop delivering a poorly-written homily on a bad day (she could have/should have done better), is giving up on your own local churches. If you visit some of them, I believe you will find some kind of meaningful fellowship.
So true. That woman is a bubble-dwelling woketard Boomer Narcissist, with zero self-awareness.
She is not providing any leadership or service to anyone.
She should be defrocked.
Hmmmm. I don't know. . . probably most boomers disown her and push her into the previous "do nothing" generation!
I disagree. She is a classic, “Me Generation” Boomer, of which the misguided Millennials are their children.
come on, Man!
I'm just playin'.
since I am a boomer.
lol
Amen to that!
What people call "woke" now (which is the most overused word on the planet) is actually extremely similar to what Jesus preached in his day to day life - sympathy for the downtrodden, scared, discouraged people.
Maybe. But I bet Jesus didn’t run around shrieking in the face of anyone that disagreed with him.
I’m no theologian, but didn’t he say something about render under Caesar that which is Caesars?
Referring to payment of taxes. The rest of the quote is “and unto God, that which is His”. Meaning your life.
Wokeness is Communist tyranny with trans characteristics, which is not what Jesus preached.
The word "woke" or "wokeness" is so over-used that it's losing it's meaning rapidly. It now refers to almost everything a conservative disagrees with. The word is used so much it's run into the ground and squashed. What did you have to talk about before you had this word to use? Woke is used to describe a rally or march for something you "don't" agree with. But, if you agree with the purpose of a march or rally, it's not a "woke" event. You see a TV commercial with a black and white married couple having coffee in a coffee shop, the company is being "woke". You walk down a city street and pass by an inter-racial married couple walking into a coffee shop and it's just a "couple", not a woke thing. It's just way overdone and ridiculous using this word to describe nearly every thing that might be societal change.
Disagree. It's divisive and out of touch with reality.
lol
Will He have sympathy for them after they die?
How about the 15k+ that died in Western North Carolina, totally on purpose and not being reported?
The tens of millions of illegals were trafficked here by the UN and by primarily Catholic, Methodist and Jewish NGOs (USING OUR TAX DOLLARS!) as part of an unconventional warfare campaign to collapse the United States to bring in China Model Global Communism. Is that how you want to live?
(See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloward%E2%80%93Piven_strategy).
There have already been hundreds of thousands of casualties and deaths, due to this unconventional warfare operation. 300,000 minors who went missing since Biden took office; either sex-trafficked, otherwise enslaved or organ-harvested. You want more of THAT???
It is disgusting and it is the OPPOSITE of Trump's fault. It is the fault of the insane Woke, who are working through the US Federal bureaucracy, the NGOs to collapse civilization and to kill, not just the victims of human trafficking ("illegals") but 95% of the world's population.
This crime cannot stand and it won't!
No one knows what the man said.
All we know is what someone said he said. Given the various levels of translations, errors in transcription and plain old human deviousness we'll never know what he said or meant. Heck most of us have no clue about what someone said an hour ago even if we were there! Point is, he can be made to have said practically anything by anyone at any time, and then there are legions who'll "interpret" what he was supposed to have said to fit their own, often perverted, agendas. Covid should have taught us all to trust few, if any, "authorities, especially quacks, corporatists, and clergy.
I do, however, rather like the story about driving the money changers out of the temple. Now that's a great example of "love thy neighbor," and one that ought to be practiced more often.
I agree that no one really knows what was said as the Bible was written by males and many things lost in translation. But, unfortunately many people take it literally as the direct word of God, when it's human interpretation and re-telling.
So, apparently you have a small ax to grind with males, so. . . just guessing! you are a woman, Jupiter917.
Further, your apparent "need" to tell others what is and is not "real" in the BIBLE makes me trust any word you say-- little.
The fact is, IF you study it, you will find TRUTH there, History, and, in fact, the WORD of G-d.
Are you possibly saying the people who walked and talked with Him were originally chickens and ran away then decided to die for Him because they became cultists?
I found the first 12 minutes of sanctimony tiresome, and early into her closing admonition I'm pretty sure the word bitch escaped from my lips.
Heck - I agree. Every single word she uttered was tiresome. Note how restless and annoyed the audience in the church was as she spoke.
It would have been great if someone nearby walked right on out as she twittered her fools-speak.
I admit that I was hoping somebody would do something like that…anything, other than sitting there, trying to be polite to someone who definitely didn’t deserve it. Melanie is very skilled at ignoring stuff, but I noticed that even she finally started glaring at this ridiculous person.
Decline of the Episcopalian church has gone on for decades. They left their biblical foundation in favour of their liberal agenda. This woman bishop is typical of their demise. The Bible specifies the requirements to be a bishop and one is to be the husband of one wife. Hardly fitting for a woman even if she thinks she is a man. Also the promotion of homosexuals right from their archbishop down, is totally against scripture. They are not a Christian organisation but simply a religious one.
The Episcopalian Diocesan Conferences, which we are required to attend, are full of Leftist drivel. The male Bishops say the exact thing that this woman said, and worse, like speaking with outrage about the "murder" of George Floyd. It is torture to sit through a couple of days of this. I stay in this church because the people in our congregation are just the best. Most of us in our small church are down to earth Conservatives, except for our wonderful priest (who from time to time gets too political).
Don't you think that we as Christians have an obligation to hold the "church's" feet to the fire? My husband and I are going through a similar issue about leaving our church because the pastor and his wife think they have all authority to dictate their will to the congregation. Our by-laws state otherwise. Anyway, I did stumble upon some information, "The Doctrine of Lesser Magistrates." Interesting stuff. I think we have an obligation to God to protect the church from being usurped.
You are correct, I believe.
Our pastor this fall was championing a book for all to read: The Myth of a Christian Nation" Dr. Greg Boyd. Summary: He wants people in the church to restrict themselves to the church and not be active politically to resist pressure by the state regarding anything, including abortion, civil rights, gender confusion. What the bible says is only relevant inside and not outside your 'church'.
Needless to say, I disagree!
Not only do I believe that we have an obligation, but I believe one day we will have to answer for our complacency and lack of commitment to the truth.
This is the usual sanctimonious virtue signaling leftist monologue that lacks any reason or purpose. Its gone beyond annoying and Im not having it. My compassion is reserved for the abused children and victims of the pedophiles and those defend them
Chris - hear, hear.
I will second that one!
Wearing her useless mask does not protect her from the virus of ideological idiocy. The only member of the clergy of the Church of England for whom I have any respect was Archbishop Laud whom the Roundhead Calvinist extremists had to use a Bill of Attainder in order to murder him since no court of law could convict him of any crime. He and Charles I were therefore martyrs since both sought to save English Christianity from the excesses of Calvinism.
I believe the woman, Budde, simply suffers from what most people do who have a glimpse of the limelight today. She feels she must enlarge her part to become a world savior. She's in the spotlight. She's the Star of the Show!! Instead of focusing inward and sussing out her motives for such a tirade, she sallies forth with nary a hint of hesitation. She might discover that she wallows in conceit, arrogance, and ego if she genuinely confronted herself. I would imagine the role of any clergy upon inauguration of a president would be to pray for his wisdom, strength, and fortitude in carrying out his duties while placing a blessing upon the nation.
It's a bit more complex. The christian church has a very very long history of castration and gender destruction in monasteries and nunneries. People trying to escape gender is common in religious society. Having compassion for the weak and oppressed *is at the core of christianity. The bit I dont understand is 'lesbian and transgender children' tho. The LGBTQ people took this stuff way too far and now we see a backlash, I guess.
The Bible clearly condemns all LGBTQ. They all fall under Proverbs 14:12 "There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death."
If they "fear for their lives" any more than the rest of us do, it's probably some combination of mental illness and woke nincompoops preaching the litany of oppression and existential threat to them. This twat should be known hereafter as Bishop von Munchausen.
I’m a cradle Episcopalian. I agree with you.
I feel like an early Church member must have felt during the reign of Mary Tudor, privately reading my Morning Prayer service, praying alone.
I miss participation with others but I’ll pray alone rather than go to a church where I’m harangued about reparations by a masked virtue signaler.
Even during the 1980s and the early days of AIDs when no one was quite sure of all the ways it could be spread, we shared one cup during communion.
I stopped attending regularly after the masks, sterile gloves, paper plate with one wafer held at arm’s length for me, no cup, became the regular practice during the recent plague/Fauci syndrome.
I pray for the return of faith to our bishops and clergy, that we turn back to Jesus, take solace in our beautiful liturgy, embrace one another in the spirit of Christ’s peace, and fear not.
Well said, Kim.
This person is a disgrace and has trash talked Trump publicly many times before. Someone on Trump team (intentionally?) dropped the ball. But loved JDs evil eye glare.
