President Trump signed an executive order on Thursday aimed at eradicating "anti-Christian bias" in the federal government by having agencies review policies and practices that he says have tried to squelch religious activities and activism.

convicted felon destroying the gov. ignoring the constitution, militia head pardoned by the convicted felon will run for office, while the convicted felon is saying eradicating "anti-Christian bias". what kinda country this? it's really surreal.

Does anyone really believe that Trump gives one shit about religion? It's pure manipulation. If he really believed, he'd repent, flagellate himself in the public square and beg for forgiveness. His sins are too numerous to list. This is just a circus act, and Paula White is a carnival act.
Trump a champion of Christianity; what a joke. It is a pure manipulative technique to please MAGA evangelicals. An age old strategy to concoct imaginary threats. Jewish blood libel, Salem witch hunts, lynching of innocent blacks all justified by invented stories. Racism disguised as religion. CRAP.
Biden was a devout Catholic who believed in freedom of religion. The "anti-Christian bias" shtick is pure bullshit and everyone knows it. But the trained seals clap and cheer. Soon free-thinking intelligent women will be denounced as witches and added to the long list of undesirables.
As a Christian, this is ridiculous. I don’t feel persecuted and I don’t feel the need to push my beliefs on anyone. The GOP needs to sit down and actually read the words of Christ.
The conservative Christians did read their Bibles and came to a conclusion that Trump, like the flawed leaders mentioned in the Bible, is a flawed leaders sent by God to do God's work. That's why they still support him no matter what he says & does. Trump also shamelessly panders to them.
All that can be done now is litigation and protests. Democrats need to be focusing on mid-term elections and voter suppression. I guarantee the Republicans are working on all that now because if they lose the house and maybe even the senate, their evil plan will come to a grinding halt.
As an originalist, these Supreme court justices should realize the founding fathers repudiated religion. I wish there was more religious bias in government not less. Religion is the enemy of the people. And it is a distraction as they take your tax refund. https://www.kiplinger.com/taxes/trump-irs-employee-buyout-offer
You know, he could sign an EO that states nobody can speak ill of him or anything he does & it wouldn't change a gd thing. I'm beginning to realize that these things are symbolic & not really worth the paper they're written on.
As a Jew, I always used to feel so sad for my Christian friends... especially around Xmas. They'd have parties and friends and songs and joy. But they never got to try the bland, tasteless joy of kfilta fish! 😭
As a Jewish American, I’ve had multiple employers tell me that it’s “just a coincidence“ that planned company breaks fall on Christian holidays. They really believed that. We are often forced to take these holidays off and work on our own holidays. Yeah- seems like an anti-Christian system 🙄
We all know why the Fool is doing this…because he knows he is definitely on his way to Hell. So he’s trying to get on God’s good side…TOO LATE TRUMPIE!!
The American Taliban. The corrupt 34x convicted felon never enters the doors of a church building or cathedral and could not quote ONE Bible scripture but wants to eradicate anti-Christian bias? How about the other biases against other religions and marginal groups of law abiding citizens?
Atheist here. I’m as anti-Christian as they come as I think it’s a cover for anything horrible an adult does. Oh, wait a minute. Ahhhh, Trump just re-enforced my atheism.
How ironic the antichrist signing a bill to support the very religion theatre could bring him down if the get it right. Guess Bishop Budde can speak out now.
The United States is NOT a Christian country! Christians live in the US along with many other religions. Everyone has the right to believe or not believe what they want.
Christianism, like other religions, killed more people than their lives were saved by their gods. Trump is creating hell on heart to avoid jail time for the crimes he committed and is still committing
Yes, I had rather not receive my religious instruction from a convicted felon, an abjudicated grapist, a fraudster, a compulsive liar, a thief, and an adulterer. 🤷♀️
That's just f@cking rich coming from a fat ass who embodies all 7 deadly sins and has broken EVERY commandment, hocks chinese bibles he f@cking autographs. Sickening f@ck!

This is hilarious. A guy who thinks a Hail Mary is a football play is pretending to be religious. He is a consummate hypocrite who has conned the Christian community shamelessly for years (and they consume his fake piety all too willingly).
Maybe there wouldn't be so much pushback against the evangelical "christians" if they stopped trying to jam their brand of theocracy down our throats. #AmericanTaliban
Pretty sure he doesn’t understand (care) the “Separation of church and state” that is a large part of our government. Think that there will be any republicans willing to defend the government that they swore to defend???? Will they do the right thing this time or cower like they have done.
This is getting more Biblical everyday. Paula White is a kook who stole $900,000 from her own church. Now she’s in charge of telling us all how to live.
They are busy normalizing it beyond the "god bless", "thoughts and prayers", "jesus loves you". Get ready for the "praise be", "under his eye" etc. Christians are so ready to belch out their value system and use it as a blanket to smother all around. Don't let them do that, never, talk back.
Ironic as executive orders are already limiting my religious freedom to follow command of Jesus to stand on the side of poor, minister to refugee, feed hungry, & uphold human dignity & equality. I would say his administration has a bias against any religious freedom not in line with its ideology
“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof“. If he stays within the bounds of that requirement with this exec order, we’re good.
In other words, to enable fauxvangelicals their freedom of religion to discriminate against whomever the gossipmongers decide they don't like. Jesus cannot be found in their congregations.
Typically bizarre religiosity from the Republican Party. Their weird demon haunted universe and racist intolerance oppose both democracy and the enlightenment itself.
Bitch at the helm of his Office of Faith has horribly twisted the foundation of the whole Jesus thing. Almost as bad as Reagan cabinet's beliefs that the end was near. 🙄 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosperity_theology
Where is the task force to eradicate racism? How about anti semitism? Or homophobia? Transphobia? Islamophobia? This is is a disgraceful attempt to turn us into a white Christian nationalist society- the hell with separation of church and state.
Jews and Muslims should be outraged that this disproportionately supports Christians. Hate crimes target them far more.
Catholics should be outraged by their bishops supporting this bigotry.
Who's suing over this unconstitutional preferential waste of tax dollars? https://www.csusb.edu/hate-and-extremism-center
It's an anti-religion bias if anything, and that's called first amendment. Can't wait for the awesome Temple of Satan to demand to be an advisor as well.
Trump followed the prayer breakfast with orders to end sanctuary cities and states. You know? The most CHRISTIAN thing of all - offering sanctuary. Trump is a heartless hypocrite and the Christian nationalists are FINE with it. There has been no moral outrage over ending sanctuary.
Shame on them.
The usual Trump playbook. Insist that there’s a huge problem that doesn’t really exist and then swoop in to save the imaginary victims from an imaginary situation. It’s all scripted. The media is usually dumb enough to follow it.

How pathetic
― Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale
No good fruit comes from bad trees.
-Jesus
there is GOD in our national anthem, on our $$$, and all throughout the halls of government
it's just none of the people who claim to be followers are actually following the alleged teachings
Profiles would read love all, Jesus is my hero, etc
I’m sure when they pick up a Bible it never occurs to them how hypocritical they are.
But then again, their comment would be: what does this have to do with hippos?
Having our AG chairing this shit show is also sickening.

The NYTImes worked to put it there.
Trump will rename himself

Have any of the cry babies studied the history of religious strife in Europe centuries ago? That was persecution.
Serving non-Christians in your business a problem for you? STFU!

The laziest president we've had does 0 but sits at his little desk & and signs executive orders.

Catholics should be outraged by their bishops supporting this bigotry.

... and Trump has violated all the deadly sins and knows nothing about Christianity.
Hurting children?
Shame on them.
There. Fixed it for you. How is it that hard to call it what it is?! FFS!
