It seems others have spoken out. Including… ‘One attendee, Bishop William Joensen of Des Moines, wrote afterward that “I wish I had been more shrewd and less simple, like those who exploited our meeting for partisan political purposes.”

I'm in favor of my church's priests going anywhere, anytime to pray, but for Christ's sake, don't be naifs about it. The bishops are shocked -- shocked -- to have been used by this White House? Absolute amateur hour. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/u...
