The incoming Trump administration is preparing a comprehensive report that portrays the Justice Department under President Biden as hostile toward Christians, according to documents reviewed by NBC News.
The effort centers on Biden-era enforcement actions that the Trump team views as discriminatory. The report specifically targets DOJ decisions related to abortion clinic protection laws and Covid-related regulations, framing both as examples of selective legal prosecution.
The document represents a deliberate strategy to challenge the Biden administration's law enforcement record on grounds of religious bias. By characterizing these enforcement priorities as anti-Christian, Trump officials aim to reshape how the incoming administration approaches Justice Department leadership and priorities.
The report has not yet been made public, though NBC News obtained details of its contents. Officials involved in preparing the document have not detailed its full scope or which other enforcement actions might be included in the final version.
The strategy reflects broader tensions over how federal law enforcement interprets and applies statutes involving religious liberty, abortion access, and public health mandates. It signals the Trump administration intends to scrutinize enforcement decisions from the previous four years and may reverse certain DOJ positions.
The timing of the report's completion remains unclear, but the effort suggests the administration plans to use it as justification for personnel changes and policy shifts at Justice Department leadership levels.
