DOJ Report Confirms Biden Admin Targeted Christians
Listen tothis article
The Department of Justice just released a bombshell report proving what the ACLJ has been sounding the alarm on for years: The Biden Administration was weaponizing the government against Christians. Further, the report highlights numerous ACLJ cases that we won while defending religious liberty.
According to the official statement by the Department of Justice Office of Public Affairs:
Today, the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias published a report detailing how the Biden Administration’s prosecutions, policies, and practices demonstrated anti-Christian bias throughout the federal government, in accordance with Executive Order 14202. The Acting Attorney General serves as Chair of the Task Force, and the Justice Department coordinated this significant interagency effort.
“No American should live in fear that the federal government will punish them for their faith,” said Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, Chair of the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias. “As our report lays out, the Biden Administration’s actions devastated the lives of many Christian Americans. That devastation ended with President Trump. The Department of Justice will continue to expose bad actors who targeted Christians and work tirelessly to restore religious liberty for all Americans of faith.”
The 200-page report collects the detailed findings of the seventeen federal agencies on the Task Force, as well as other agencies who also uncovered religious discrimination. The report examines how the Biden Administration pushed its radical policy agenda, even when its actions infringed on Christian beliefs, free exercise, and on matters of deep personal importance to nearly every American: life, family, marriage, self-identity, education, medical decisions, and more. To support these findings, the Report contains over 1100 footnotes and over 300 pages of exhibits.
In creating its portions of the report, the Justice Department conducted a thorough review of internal discussions, case files, and prosecutorial decisions, some of which are detailed in the recent report published by the Weaponization Working Group about the FACE Act. The Justice Department met with and received information from over 100 stakeholders and victims in its review of the impacts of the Biden Administration’s anti-Christian bias.
It’s not surprising to learn that anti-Christian bias was rampant – and seeing what we suspected all along printed in black and white is sweet vindication. And there are individuals who should be held accountable.
The 200-page report – though with attachments, it’s actually 565 pages – confirms the systemic bias against Christians by the heavy hand of the Biden Administration.
As the report itself states:
The Biden Administration’s policies regularly clashed with a Christian worldview and burdened traditional religious practices. These conflicts frequently arose over abortion, gender ideology, and sexual orientation. Ultimately, the Biden Administration penalized Christians who lived in accordance with their beliefs.
The Biden Administration had a big team pulling a lot of the strings and working behind the scenes to target people of faith. Why? Because they assumed they were likely conservatives and therefore the enemy?
Now the question is: Will anyone be held accountable for this, and when? We will continue to monitor as developments unfold and keep you updated.
