“You said there were no words after the murder of those two individuals,” said Rev. Jack Perkins Davidson. “I think the words are ‘Abolish ICE.’”

If there was ever any doubt that a National Prayer Breakfast was a dangerous marriage of organized religion and political power, this should settle that argument.
President Bukele of El Salvador, creator of the horrific CECOT detention prison, speaks at the 2026 National Prayer Breakfast in DC.
Nayib Bukele, the President of El Salvador, is now addressing the breakfast at the hotel, where Trump is also slated to speak.

At the one on the Hill, Senate Chaplain Barry Black is speaking instead.

National Prayer Breakfast is this morning. While lots of coverage about it will mention power of evangelicals, NPB was started by mainline Protestant politicians & preachers, as Beau Underwood & I documented in Baptizing America: bookshop.org/a/110819/978... 1/

Connecting the dots.
"...all of this creates the impression that their promised ethnic cleansing action would be a response to something, rather than a simple choice to exercise state violence against an invented racial enemy."
In Springfield, Ohio, people are preparing in advance of a “large deportation” promised by the president. To all appearances, the city is 2 or 3 days from a federal ethnic cleansing, grounded in a hate campaign organized by the vice-president and American Nazis.
