Millions have put their trust in you, and as you told the nation yesterday, you have felt the providential hand of a loving God. In the name of our God, I ask you to have <a href="https://aus.social/tags/mercy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mercy</a> upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are <a href="https://aus.social/tags/gay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gay</a>, <a href="https://aus.social/tags/lesbian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lesbian</a> and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/transgender" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#transgender</a> children in Democratic, Republican and independent families, some who fear for their lives. And the people, the people, who pick our crops and clean our office buildings, who labor in poultry farms and meatpacking plants, who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants and work the night shifts in hospitals, they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation, but the vast majority of <a href="https://aus.social/tags/immigrants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#immigrants</a> are not criminals. They pay taxes and are good neighbors. “I ask you to have mercy, Mr President, on those in our communities whose children fear that their parents will be taken away, and that you help those who are fleeing war zones and <a href="https://aus.social/tags/persecution" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#persecution</a> in their own lands to find compassion and welcome here,” Budde said.Neither Trump nor Vance showed much obvious reaction to her words. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/USPol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USPol</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/auspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#auspol</a>
