Speaking about #MatthewShepard: Did you know, that Mariann Edgar Budde, the diocese's first female bishop, who made headlines for speaking at #DonaldTrump's inauguration, much to the president's dislike, presided over the interment of the ashes of Matthew Shepard, at the cathedral in 2018, together with Gene Robinson, the first openly gay Episcopal bishop?

Speaking about #DonaldTrump: Mariann Edgar Budde criticized the use of police and National Guard to forcibly clear protestors from Lafayette Square ahead of the president's pose for a photo op in front of St. John's Church in June 2020, amid the #GeorgeFloyd protests in Washington, DC, calling it a "[use] as a backdrop for a message antithetical to the teachings of Jesus."
