Catholic activist Carrie Prejean Boller has been given a Catholic award following her removal from President Donald Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission.
Boller, a model turned conservative activist, was ousted from the commission last month after a hearing on antisemitism descended into chaos. The commission’s chair Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick said Boller “hijacked” the hearing for her “own personal and political agenda.”
