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

Source: NBC News

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.

Trump’s 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 Trump’s 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.

the needless deaths of our brave soldiers, billions of squandered dollars, gasoline at a all time high, and now Melanoma's Sgt. Schultz "I know nothing!" Epstein/Maxwell denial bullshit (who asked her??), Trump's DOJ has decided now is the time to tar Joe Biden as what..a distraction???

and the best part is toxic clown Trump says he had no idea wifey was going to admit to nothing more than a distant acquaintance with Trump's prolific pedophile/human trafficking pals...even though there are multiple pics of First Nude Lady partying with said couple..

The insanity keeps on coming!!!

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!!

Tbh, the Religionist Right doesn’t consider Catholics to be Christian so it fits. And, of course, Trump isn’t either but that doesn’t bother them.

They have sold their souls to get political power.

a foundation to make this call?

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.

They pull it out whenever needed to rally the religious base, but it's starting to look worn and dog eared by now as becomes more obvious that it's the only ace they have in their deck. Christian Fundies vote for the ace and get a Joker.

That's the most brain dead statements I've heard from the Trump administration. But, what else do I expect from the king of lies.

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.

People can be religious, our government can allow people to be religious. But our government cannot be religious.
