TL;DR Summary

The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a satirical drag group, will be honored at Dodger Stadium during the team's Pride Night. The group's Los Angeles chapter will receive the Community Hero Award over the objections of critics such as Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor and a Republican presidential candidate; Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.); and multiple bishops who have accused the Sisters of blasphemy. The Sisters are bracing for protests on Friday from members of Church Militant, a right-wing fringe group and others mobilized by the controversy, as well as detractors who have zeroed in on the Dodgers, too.
