Of all the clerics for ICE to pop...

Of all the clerics they could have popped, those ICE idiots had to hit Hot Priest.

The comments are comedy gold.

1. Is he married?

He looks like a good guy with lots of empathy. Woke, believes in DEI, etc.

His church is Chicago's oldest Presbyterian church, dating back to 1833. If he's single, he's a great catch. He's everything that ICE and the drumpf regime are not.

13. Your assessment is validated in this interview.

14. Wow, he's the real thing!

He must be single if his bio says he lives with his Husky and plants. I'm old enough to be his greataunt, but I still can admire a kind, woke, smart, thoughtful, handsome, looks like he has a good sense of humor man.

Thanks for posting the interview.

16. My pleasure.

He’s an irresistible sweetheart, and I predict we’ll have the pleasure of his continued presence on the national stage. He’s the perfect antidote to Mike Johnson’s Old Testament version of Christianity in store for us if the Christian Nationalists have their way.

Check this out if you can handle a real-life Halloween horror show:

I'll watch it tomorrow when I'm less beat down by the horrors happening in this country.

3. He was interviewed by Nicolle yesterday, and I had exactly the same thought.

Big mistake. Who wouldn’t want to be on his side?

[BattleRow]

7. Or "underneath" his ministrations...

4. How was this cleric "popped" and "hit" by ICE?

A static picture of a cleric being interviewed on CNN is quite uninformative

5. They shot him in the head with a pepper spray ball from the roof of a building.

9. They shot him in the head

With a pepper ball while he prayed for them

[AZJonnie]

12. Yes I was informed earlier, and funnily-enough I knew the story and watched the video yesterday

The words "pepper ball" in the OP would've made it click for me instantly, but without them, I didn't recollect
