American Atheists Slams Trump Task Force Findings on “Anti-Christian Bias”
May 1, 2026 American Atheists

Washington, D.C. — On Thursday, the Department of Justice released a report from President Trump’s “Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias.”

The publication claims, “The Biden administration’s policies regularly clashed with a Christian worldview,” citing abortion, gender identity, and sexual orientation as areas of conflict and framing civil rights protections as violations of religious liberty. But the report relies heavily on Christian Nationalist groups like the Heritage Foundation, the American Principles Project, and the First Liberty Institute.

The 197-page report mentions atheists only twice in footnotes, effectively excluding the 29% of Americans who identify as religiously unaffiliated. It also overlooks the widespread stigmatization and discrimination faced by atheists under every presidential administration, as documented by American Atheists’ groundbreaking U.S. Secular Survey.

American Atheists president Nick Fish said, “True religious freedom — the kind our nation’s founders enshrined in the Constitution — protects and treats equally people of all faiths and of none. It’s very clear this administration is only concerned about Americans of a certain faith.”


This was released by OUR Department Of Justice. So, christianity and all discussions thereof aren't religious and protected anymore: they're PURE POLITICS!

Our founders knew such imposition would be the end of our democratic experiment . Religion isn't harmless, anymore .
