An April 30, 2026, report condemns anti-Christian bias under the Biden administration. While left-leaning pundits and social justice faith groups disparage the report as itself being biased, such gaslighting does nothing to diminish the damning picture that emerges from the report. The Biden administration clearly shattered many constitutional boundaries in its toxic discrimination against conservative Christians. The allegations of this bias are widespread, well-documented, and detailed
A Long List of Biden Transgressions
Americans have heard previously about the high-profile Biden administration efforts to use the FBI to spy on traditional Latin Mass Catholic groups, leveraged in part by many Catholic groups’ designation as hate groups by the now-disgraced Southern Poverty Law Center. Yet the report, titled “Eradicating Anti-Christian Bias within the Federal Government,” chronicles far more illegal infringements from numerous federal agencies, including outrageous fines against Christian universities levied by the Department of Education, aggressive DOJ prosecutions against non-violent pro-life demonstrators, IRS investigations of conservative churches for expressing biblical teachings, HHS rules that prevented conservative Christians from serving as foster families, denial of equal access to federal programs and benefits, violation of conscience for healthcare workers, limitations on employee freedom of expression, and the removal by the State Department of Nigeria from its list of countries of particular concern for religious freedom.
The report is voluminous (208 pages) because the list of documented offenses against people of conservative faith by the Biden administration is lengthy. The Trump administration has announced policies to reverse these unconscionable transgressions against the First Amendment, restoring liberties to express one’s faith – even of the liberal persuasion – freely.
Efforts to dismiss the report are shallow reminders of Biden’s gaslighting of people of faith. In a laughable condemnation of the report, Baptist Global News solicited a bevy of so-called “experts” for their take. The resulting screed reads like a social justice manifesto twinned with Trump Derangement Syndrome. It portrays the comprehensive report as the product of Christian nationalism while attacking Donald Trump’s personal religious views.
Experts With No Clothes
One “expert,” Melissa Rodgers, who led Biden’s faith-based initiatives, claims Joe Biden was “a devout Catholic” while dismissing the term “traditional Christian” as a major error in the study because it attributes a unified worldview to that category (though she never defines “devout”). Rodgers claims that “DOJ’s assertion of a ‘Christian worldview’ on contested policies amounts to taking sides on theological beliefs “which is something the government should never do.” Yet this is precisely what the extensive report concludes the Biden administration did, comprehensively and throughout numerous federal agencies – push a liberal worldview supporting pride flags, abortion, and transgender ideology at the deliberate expense of competing moral views.
Rodgers dismissed any logs in Biden’s eye while pointing at twigs in Trump’s, reportedly stating: “Those concerned about a president’s attack on faith should consider Donald Trump’s tirade against Pope Leo XIV, his AI-generated self-portrayal of himself as Christ, and his Easter Sunday social media warning.” This serves instead as an indictment of Biden by contrast – the April 30 report does not criticize President Biden for his personal views, but for what he implemented to quell the views of others – no such claim is leveled against the Trump administration.
The article invokes the Christian nationalism canard, quoting Amanda Tyler for the position that the report erroneously invoked “the mythology of the U.S. as a ‘Christian nation,’ a false narrative created to privilege Christianity in policy and law.” What that has to do with Biden’s conduct is simply avoided. Next, the scapegoat tactic of projection onto Trump is employed classically by pseudo-expert Guthrie Graves-Fitzsimmons (former leader of a “Christians Against Christian Nationalism” campaign), who proclaimed, “The greatest threat to Christians exercising our religious liberty in the United States today is the Trump administration itself.” If ever there was an example of critics “who doth protest too much,” this disjointed effort at a hit piece takes the Shakespearean cake.
President Trump Restores Religious Liberties
Such shallow screeds fail to deflect from the facts of Biden’s comprehensive assaults against conservative Christians documented in the report. The narrative runs aground even more visibly on the report’s stated reversals of these unconstitutional Biden policies under Donald Trump. It states:

“While the focus of the Task Force’s investigation is the effects of this bias on Christians, these affronts to the constitutional rights of the nation’s largest faith community pose equal, if not graver, risks to every faith tradition. As President Trump has explained, the Administration is committed to “vigorously enforc[ing] the historic and robust protections for religious liberty enshrined in Federal law.”6 This report provides a deep dive into the Task Force’s findings of anti-Christian bias and outlines the steps each member Department is taking to better protect the religious liberty of Americans of all faiths.”
EBQ
As much as the report serves as an alarming indictment of a “whole-of-government approach” under the Biden administration to prejudice and target conservative Christian believers, it is also a reaffirmation that the US government under the Trump administration will not do so. Trump is not dispatching surreptitious FBI undercover agents to infiltrate mosques or Satanic worship services. This marks just one more example of the Trump administration restoring constitutional protections systematically dismantled by the Biden administration.
Thank God!
