We now know that the Biden administration was literally partnering with abortion activists to track and imprison pro-lifers.<\/span><\/p>\n

When I see President Trump and Pope Leo going at it, I think to myself, if we\u2019re going to talk about presidents who are legitimately attacking Catholics, we should really be talking about Barack Obama, who went after the Little Sisters of the Poor and decided that he was going to mainstream every sin he could find.<\/span><\/p>\n

We should talk about Joe Biden, who apparently was using the DOJ to go after pro-lifers, which is insane.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Daily Wire <\/span>reporting<\/span><\/a>, President Biden\u2019s administration relied on information gathered from radical pro-abortion groups to track, prosecute, and snoop on peaceful pro-life protesters who were later arrested by the FBI.<\/span><\/p>\n

A DOJ report titled \u201cThe Biden Administration\u2019s Weaponization of the FACE Act\u201d examined more than 700,000 records.<\/span><\/p>\n

The FACE Act is a bill that was designed to prevent people from obstructing entry to abortion clinics. The FACE Act also said that you weren\u2019t allowed to invade churches during services. That came up in the context of Don Lemon and his friends invading and disturbing a church service in order to protest ICE.<\/span><\/p>\n

The dossiers that the DOJ examined contained information about pro-life activists who had not yet been charged with any federal crimes, but were deemed threats by abortion groups because of their activism.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve seen this kind of pattern emerge in all of the reporting from the Biden administration, over and over and over. They were using left-wing cutout groups to do their dirty work, whether it was the Biden administration State Department contracting out to other services to promote boycotts of right-wing news outlets, or whether it was the Biden administration outsourcing its investigative pursuits to anti-life, pro-choice organizations to target pro-lifers.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Biden administration liked to do such things.<\/span><\/p>\n

According to the Daily Wire <\/span>reporting<\/span><\/a>, the weaponization can be traced to former Attorney General Merrick Garland\u2019s resurrection of the National Task Force on Violence Against Reproductive Health Care Providers the month after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022.<\/span><\/p>\n

That task force was operating out of the department\u2019s civil rights division under the direction of Sanjay Patel, who was <\/span>reportedly fired<\/span><\/a> on Monday. Patel was on texting terms with the National Abortion Federation security team and was regularly communicating with the Planned Parenthood Federation of America and the Feminist Majority Foundation, according to the DOJ. Members of the Biden DOJ were coordinating openly with various abortion groups and leaders in the abortion movement.<\/span><\/p>\n

This was all part of these non-governmental organizations working hand-in-glove with the federal government under Joe Biden. Daily Wire reporting looked into the sentences that were sought by the Biden DOJ against pro-life activists, and what they found is that the Biden DOJ asked for a longer, average sentence for pro-life defendants compared to pro-abortion defendants. Actual sentences shook out to an average of 14 months for pro-life defendants, versus three months for pro-choice defendants.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is astonishing. It demonstrates the full-scale animus that the Biden administration had for the pro-life movement.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is nothing new. If you go back to the Clinton administration, the attempt to target political adversaries using the DOJ is perfectly obvious.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve said over and over that the Left likes to say that Donald Trump broke all the rules, that he\u2019s the one who killed the American political system.<\/span><\/p>\n

The reality is that the American political system was already dead, and Trump stumbled upon it. Barack Obama used the IRS to go after pro-life groups, conservative groups, and Tea Party groups. Joe Biden\u2019s DOJ targeted pro-lifers.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s nothing new here. Democrats have been doing this for a very, very long time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Imagine the scandal if, for example, the Trump administration were coordinating with pro-life groups to go after abortion advocates. Can you imagine the scandal? Can you imagine the front page coverage?<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the questions here is how people who were involved in this were allowed to stay at the DOJ for so long. Sanjay Patel was still working for the DOJ all the way until Monday, which is crazy and demonstrates the truth of President Trump\u2019s statement that there is, in fact, a deep state.<\/span><\/p>\n

There are lifelong appointees of various administrations who are still working inside the current administration \u2014 working against the president\u2019s priorities. That\u2019s very real. It just goes to show you that the attempt to cleanse the administration of holdovers is an ongoing pursuit.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Democratic Party is perfectly willing to use the auspices of government to go after religious people. They\u2019ve been doing it over and over and over again. It\u2019s one of the reasons I said to my family that we ought to leave California. My great fear is that states like California will effectively quasi-criminalize religious practice by essentially saying that any 501C3 that receives tax-exempt status from the state government must buy into the left-wing social agenda.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the Democrats were able to take over the Supreme Court, they would get away with that. They would be able to use anti-discrimination law as a guise for cracking down on First Amendment religiously protected activity. That is the direction that Democrats would love to move. And if left to their own devices, they absolutely would be able to do it.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the Democrats had won in 2024, Kamala Harris would have attempted to stack the Supreme Court and state governments everywhere would be pursuing anti-religious activity just like this.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Biden administration was, in my opinion, the worst administration in modern American history, worse even than Obama \u2014 because Obama didn\u2019t say the quiet part out loud.<\/span><\/p>\n

Biden said the quiet part out loud.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
