At the National Prayer Breakfast today, President Donald Trump announced the formation of a task force dedicated to combating anti-Christian bias within the federal government.
He appointed Attorney General Pam Bondi to lead this initiative, emphasizing the need to address discrimination against Christians in agencies such as the Department of Justice, the Internal Revenue Service, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Trump stated that the task force’s mission is to “immediately halt all forms of anti-Christian targeting and discrimination within the federal government.”
In his address, President Trump also highlighted the importance of prosecuting acts of violence and vandalism against Christians. He pledged to “move heaven and earth to defend the rights of Christians and religious believers nationwide.”

This announcement aligns with his administration’s broader commitment to protecting religious freedoms and addressing biases against Christian communities.
The move comes on the heels of Trump signing an executive order pardoning the 23 pro-life Americans Joe Biden imprisoned for protesting abortion.
“This is a great honor to sign this,” Trump said, condemning Biden’s lawfare, especially targeted at “elderly people.”
The establishment of this task force reflects ongoing concerns about religious discrimination and the role of faith in public life. By appointing Attorney General Bondi to lead the initiative, the Trump administration signals its intent to prioritize these issues at the highest levels of government. The task force is expected to review policies and practices within federal agencies to identify and eliminate anti-Christian bias, ensuring that religious beliefs are respected and protected.
Bondi announced yesterday after she was sworn in that she will launch a new investigation of lawfare against pro-life and conservative Americans.
Bondi initiated significant changes today within the Department of Justice (DOJ) to address concerns over the politicization of justice. One of her first actions was to establish a “Weaponization Working Group” tasked with reviewing instances where legal proceedings may have been influenced by political biases. This initiative reflects Bondi’s commitment to restoring impartiality within the DOJ and ensuring that justice is administered without political interference.
Bondi will investigate a number of abuses and cases of lawfare including the persecution Biden officials took against pro-life Americans. Bondi’s review aims to determine whether these prosecutions were conducted impartially or were driven by political motivations. This move underscores her dedication to scrutinizing high-profile cases that have raised questions about the DOJ’s objectivity
These initiatives mark a significant shift in the DOJ’s approach under Attorney General Bondi’s leadership. By establishing the Weaponization Working Group and realigning enforcement priorities, Bondi aims to address concerns about politicization within the department and ensure that justice is administered fairly and in accordance with the administration’s objectives. As these policies are implemented, their impact on the DOJ’s operations and public perception will become clearer.
