US Evangelical leaders react to Trump’s capture of Maduro
5. Pastor Jack Graham: 'Freedom for our Venezuelan congregation'
Jack Graham, senior pastor of Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano, Texas, said the capture of Maduro was being celebrated by members of his congregation with roots in Venezuela.
He wrote on X that “a large number of Venezuelans in @PrestonwoodEsp” were rejoicing at the end of what he called a “cruel dictatorship,” saying it has opened “the door to freedom for their friends and families.”
Graham, a Southern Baptist who is among Trump's spiritual advisors, praised the president for delivering “justice to the evil actors around the world” and described the operation as an example of “peace through strength.”
