As citizens, they have a Constitutionally guaranteed First Amendment right to freely exercise their religion. Saying a "God Bless" or a prayer when they see fit falls under their free exercise protections.

Some don't like having to look at someone wearing a hijab or a turban any more than you like hearing someone say a prayer, but that's something we need to live with if we want to have a free country.
It's just a harmless part of their exercise of religion. If you don't like, you need to learn to at least tolerate it.
A person who objects to someone saying a prayer is just as bigoted as the guy who has a problem with someone wearing a turban.

I prefer racists and fascists to expose themselves rather than hide from all of us. Thanks for the confirmation Thomp. Good job....

I'm appalled. I haven't seen this kind of racism since the l960's.
I thought that was all a part of our past. George Wallace must be sitting up in his grave smiling.

It's coming closer and closer to the outcome I've always imagined: Trumposaurus led out of the WH in handcuffs and the whole House of Cards coming crashing down. An interim government like some South American country? A major Constitutional crisis? Anything might happen now.

Wiretap Trump? He coulda just droned him.
-Jess Sayin
It provides no details of how high-value targets are chosen or any geographic limitations, and it includes several presidential waivers of its criteria in the event of “fleeting opportunity” to take action.
“Nothing in this PPG shall be construed to prevent the President from exercising his constitutional authority as Commander in Chief and Chief Executive, as well as his statutory authority, to consider a lawful proposal” that falls outside the guidelines, including a possible strike against “an individual who poses a continuing, imminent threat to another country’s persons,” it says.

Two Sources who see to be pretty well connected within the Intelligence Community. They have some pretty interesting viewpoints and links to others

I am watching Fox News as I type - holy crap, what a different perspective.
Edit: Hahah - They showed an image of Trump Tower in NYC, cropped around the n=building name - cropped to exclude the "T" making it "Rump Tower." Mabe Fox isn't all bad..... KelleyAnne Conway is on now...

If you watch it consistently you may find it not as biased as you think. For example, O'reilly, Chris Wallace, Shepard Smith, and others have come down pretty strongly on Trump and his minions at times. But many others at Fox put a familiar spin on all the news. Not so of course on MSNBC, where neutrality reigns.

JGill - I cannot watch consistently, as I am just not a consistent news site watcher, but it is true that I have noticed a difference in recent times, when seeing snippets of Fox, where I have been pleasantly surprised.
