'You’re a lapdog': Mike Johnson slammed over 'shameful' attack on Bishop

Raw Story  

House Speaker Mike Johnson took to X on Wednesday to lash out at Episcopalian Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde, who offended President Donald Trump during her prayer at the Washington National Cathedral. "Bishop Budde hijacked the National Prayer Service to promote her radical ideology," posted Johnson, a hard-right lawmaker known for embracing Christian nationalism. "She asked the President of the United States to be 'merciful' and 'compassionate,'" wrote former Tea Party Rep. Joe Walsh, a longtime critic of the MAGA movement. "According to the Speaker of the House, who is a devout Christian, expressing the sentiment that all of god's children should be treated with humanity is a 'radical ideology,'" wrote MSNBC columnist Michael A. Cohen. "Please explain how exactly she ‘hijacked the National Prayer Service’ when all she talked about was compassion for people," wrote Republicans Against Trump.
