Biden admin hired former leader of anti-Catholic group at center of LA Dodgers Pride Night controversy
'Gutfeld!' guest host Pete Hegseth and panelists discuss the arrest of former Department of Energy official Sam Brinton on ‘Gutfeld!’
Sam Brinton — the embattled former Biden administration official charged with multiple airport thefts — previously led the Washington, D.C., chapter of the anti-Catholic group invited to a "Pride Night" hosted by the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Brinton was the D.C. Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence's principal officer from its founding in 2016 until 2018, according to tax filings reviewed by Fox News Digital. The group is part of the San Francisco-based Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a drag queen group that regularly mocks the Catholic Church and made headlines after it was uninvited then re-invited to the upcoming Dodgers Pride Night.
"When we are asked, ‘Why are you mocking nuns?’ we answer: ‘We are nuns!’ We do all that traditional nuns have done for centuries," the D.C. Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence website states.
It adds that the group is dedicated to the "promulgation of universal joy and the expiation of stigmatic guilt" and that its ministry is "one of public manifestation and habitual perpetration."

As the D.C. chapter's principal officer, Brinton went by the name Sister Ray Dee O’Active and regularly hosted group events including "bar ministry" gatherings, drag brunches, White House protests and at least one "high heel race." Brinton, under that alias, also attended an Easter gathering hosted by the national organization in San Francisco in 2019,
