Irate ex-Miss USA runner-up vows to defy unceremonious ouster from Trump commission

A controversial former Miss USA runner-up who was yanked from the White House Religious Liberty Commission hit back in a stern post Wednesday at the MAGA chair of the commission who announced her ouster.

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick announced earlier in the day that he removed Carrie Prejean Boller from the panel after she tried to “hijack” a recent hearing on antisemitism.

"No member of the Commission has the right to hijack a hearing for their own personal and political agenda on any issue," Patrick announced on X. "This is clearly, without question, what happened Monday in our hearing on antisemitism in America. This was my decision. The Commission has done outstanding work through five hearings. Two more are scheduled. The testimony has been both illuminating and heartbreaking."

Boller faced calls for her resignation after wearing a Palestinian flag pin, defending right-wing podcaster Candace Owens and calling on other commissions to condemn Israel's actions against Gaza. She insisted she would “never bend the knee to the state of Israel.”

On Wednesday night, Boller, a longtime Trump ally, clapped back at Patrick on X.

"I look forward to next month’s hearing. I am more determined than ever to protect and defend religious freedom for all Americans. I refuse to bend the knee to Israel. I am no slave to a foreign nation, but to Christ our King."
