In more news from Capitol Hill, Senate Chaplain Barry Black indirectly called upon more lawmakers to speak out against President Trump, during his prayer before the Senate morning session Wednesday.
Barry Black: “Lord, we praise you for ethically congruent lawmakers who, in their inmost beings, are true and honest. Give us more senators who are true to duty as the needle to the pole. Give us more legislators who are not afraid to call sin by its right name.”
His prayer comes after two prominent Republican lawmakers—Arizona Senator Jeff Flake and Tennessee Senator Bob Corker—slammed President Trump on Tuesday, with Flake calling Trump’s behavior “reckless, outrageous and undignified,” and Corker saying Trump’s lying and bullying is “debasing to our country.”
