Trump administration plans to attack Biden DOJ as 'anti-Christian' in new report

April 9, 2026, 5:57 PM EDT
The Trump administration is finalizing a report that casts the Biden Justice Department as anti-Christian over its enforcement of laws protecting abortion clinics and enforcement of Covid regulations, among other issues, according to details of the report viewed by NBC News.
The report stems from a Justice Department-led task force that aims to eradicate anti-Christian bias formed after an executive order President Donald Trump signed in February 2025. A final version is expected to be released in the coming weeks, a Justice Department spokesperson said. The report does not carry any legal weight, but serves as an opportunity for the Trump administration to swipe politically at the Biden administration.
Trump has long claimed that Joe Biden was anti-Christian, though the former president is a devout Catholic who has rejected those statements. At the 2021 National Prayer Breakfast, a Christian-leaning event that brings together members of Congress, the White House and other leaders, Biden condemned the political extremism that inspired the riot by Trump supporters at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
Trumps order argued that the Biden Department of Justice sought to squelch faith in the public square, and the draft task force report uses similar language, claiming the Biden administration engaged in anti-Christian bias. An analysis by the Interfaith Alliance after Trumps executive order found no evidence of widespread anti-Christian bias in the U.S. In reality, it will weaponize a narrow understanding of religious freedom to legitimize discrimination against marginalized groups, the alliance analysis said.

punish Trump's perceived enemies..and 15 months into Trump's disaster of a presidency, he and his acting attorney general, Todd Blanche, Trump's "I love you!" puppet, is attempting to tag Biden, a devout Catholic, as anti-Christian...because Trump, an amoral sadistic self-worshipping psychopath, is the standard bearer of all things Christian...got it!!

(2,961 posts)Tbh, the Religionist Right doesnt consider Catholics to be Christian so it fits. And, of course, Trump isnt either but that doesnt bother them.
They have sold their souls to get political power.

Well, go ahead, then. The lawsuit will be magnanimous. It sounds like he's trying to put a protective dome over the Crusader Rabbit excuses he uses to launch every poorly thought out decision he makes, both with International and Domestic operations.

(1,200 posts)Trump will be playing the religion card this year.
Cynically, he thinks that will be enough to get some people to vote for his candidates.
And forget their economic problems.
Also, Trump has cancelled cancer research.
Which will negatively impact lives of families, including children.

Before you pounce, Biden himself said he regretted appointing Garland.

(170,225 posts)You actually still believe, that Roberts would have created some kind of special carve-out to allow ANY TRIAL for 45 to actually proceed?
After what we have seen Roberts do time and time and time again this past year supporting nearly EVERY draconian policy that 45 has sent to him?

(14,697 posts)He shouldn't be basing going ahead with an investigation on some suspicion that John Roberts won't make room for him.
There is also the public perception problem. People get their cues from those in charge. And if those in charge are not pursuing it, then its not that important. And for Trump supporters, who then re-elected him, it means they had nothing to accuse him of.
One day after Lindsey Graham, and Mitch McConnell stood up in the Senate and denounced Donald Trump was the moment. He should have held a press conference while the country was still buzzing and in shock, and announced a full investigation, where no one would be off limits. So that the public knew that the new government took sedition seriously, and the police deaths, and they'd make sure it never happened again.

(170,225 posts)It DOESN'T MATTER WHO IS AG. ROBERTS as CHIEF JUSTICE manages to get that "final say".
He has been Chief Justice since 2005.
Inevitably, 45, for the past 50 years, has TAKEN CHARGES AGAINST HIM TO COURT. And he did so WITH THIS.

The court case was assigned to judge TANYA CHUTKAN in August 2023, where she scheduled pre-trial activities scheduled for March 2024. Remember her?
Trumps federal trial in election subversion case set for March 2024
And John Roberts SWOOPED IN to accept 45's appeal -
Supreme Court takes up Trump immunity appeal
with a STAY to hear the appeal IN APRIL 2024, blowing past the original trial start -
US Supreme Court Will Hear Trumps Immunity Appeal in April, Delaying Election Subversion Trial
And then after their hearing, the SCOTUS waited from April 22, 2024 until July 1st, 2024 the last day of their session, to give judge Tanya Chutkan some "immunity homework" -
US Supreme Court leaves Judge Tanya Chutkan to parse Trump immunity
And she tried to get started with it but then ran into the just before an election cutoff, just as Roberts had planned.
It's time to drop the goddamn conspiracy shit and get with the reality of what went on. There's so much damn misinformation that has been spread on DU since this time where people obviously ignored all the threads that were following the 4 cases (2 federal and 2 state).
And for that "classified docs" case, DOJ did not receive it from NARA (as THAT is how they operate - federal agencies will refer non-responsive crap like what Blanche did) until January 2022... And the "Executive Privilege" and "Immunity" crap was invoked all during that time, so that delayed getting witnesses into the multiple grand juries (including people like Mark Meadows who kept invoking "Executive Privilege" and THAT went to court to finally say that it DIDN'T APPLY so he HAD to testify).
