GOP Congressman Wants to Deport a Native-Born American [1]

JWYTTCGAL — Just when you thought they couldn’t go any lower — Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) was so annoyed at Bishop Mariann Budde speaking truth to power that he wants her deported. (The link is to a PoliticalWire story; Collins posted his call on X, which I will not link to.)

Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) publicly called for Mariann Edgar Budde, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington, D.C., to be deported.

The Right Rev. Mariann Budde was born in New Jersey and grew up in New Jersey and Colorado.

Trump is already demanding an “apology” from Budde and the Episcopal Church for having the sheer unmitigated gall to actually preach what the Bible says (the same Bible he refused/forgot to put his hand on when swearing in) — to have compassion for "the least among us."

But even that’s not enough for some people. What next, Guantanamo for any Senator who votes against Trump?

Update: Twingrace posted this link to a petition in support of Rt. Rev. Budde.
