In May 2025, Prejean was appointed as a commissioner on the Religious Liberty Commission by President Donald Trump.[48] In February 2026, commission Chairman Dan Patrick announced that he had removed her from the Religious Liberty Commission, stating that she had "hijack[ed] a hearing on antisemitism for [her] own personal and political agenda."[49][50] The removal came after some of Prejean's comments while questioning witnesses about the differences between anti-Zionism and antisemitism during a commission hearing on antisemitism earlier that week had sparked controversy. Prejean questioned Ari Berman, President of Yeshiva University, saying, "Catholics do not embrace Zionism, just so you know. So are all Catholics antisemites?" and asked the witnesses, who were testifying about their experiences with antisemitism on college campuses after the October 7 attacks, "are you willing to condemn what Israel has done in Gaza?"[51] During the hearing, Prejean defended Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson from charges of antisemitism. When asked by journalist Yair Rosenberg about antisemitic conspiracy theories promoted by Owens, including claims that Jews were responsible for the American Civil War and the Atlantic slave trade, Prejean said "I watched her show, and I have never heard anything out of her mouth that is anti-Semitic. So I'm not gonna make a statement on something that I haven't heard the full context of.
I'm surprised she wasn't murdered like Charlie
Kirk for being a Christian in America.
