Liberal DOJ Caught Targeting Conservatives: New Data Exposes Bias in Agency

In the ever-intensifying battle over abortion rights in America, tensions are reaching a boiling point. Democrats have been taking stronger and stronger measures to protect their heinous holy grail. Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, the Biden administration has gone to extremes to punish pro-life Americans.

Republicans have long accused the Democrats of weaponizing the government for their political goals. We saw this first hand with the unprecedented lawsuits against Donald Trump.

But the big kahuna isn’t the Biden administration’s only target. Biden’s DOJ has ignored real crimes but has used laws to persecute conservatives. This growing narrative is fueling accusations of a politically motivated crackdown, raising questions about the DOJ’s impartiality and commitment to justice. And now, newly released data shows the DOJ is using an 1870 statute to throw pro-lifers in jail.

From the Daily Caller:
The Biden administration is using a novel application of an 1870 statute to enhance the sentences of peaceful abortion protesters…

In the 30-year history of the Freedom of Access to Clinics (FACE) Act, the Biden Department of Justice (DOJ) in just over three years has levied over a quarter of the law’s total charges…

The data, along with the unprecedented enhancement, provide fuel to criticisms from conservatives that the Biden admin is unfairly targeting pro-lifers and using the DOJ for political ends.

Democrat-run DOJ Persecuting Americans?

A recent development has added fuel to this fire. The DOJ is now facing allegations of conspiring against the rights of pro-life activists under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. This federal law, intended to protect access to reproductive health services, is being leveraged in what some see as an overreach aimed at silencing dissent. Data provided by Rep. Chip Roy shows that the Biden administration is using the FACE Act to target pro-life Americans.

The agency is using a statute from 1870 to push harsh penalties on pro-lifers who protest outside abortion clinics. They use this statute to enhance the power of the FACE Act, a very controversial law used by Democrats to incarcerate pro-life protesters. The law is meant to prevent people from stopping Americans from accessing health care. But it has been abused by the DOJ to attack peaceful protesters.

Meanwhile, the Biden/Harris DOJ has done very little to prosecute pro-choice arsons and agitators who break the law by attacking pregnancy centers. Since 2022, hundreds of pro-life churches, centers, and clinics have been attacked, vandalized, or firebombed by leftist activists. Yet, the DOJ has prosecuted only five people.

A Double Standard from the Left

The broader implications of these allegations are significant. They touch on fundamental issues of free speech, the right to protest, and the role of federal authorities in regulating these rights. For many in the pro-life movement, this feels like an existential threat, a battle not just for the unborn but for the very ability to advocate on their behalf.

Pro-life organizations are pushing back hard against what they see as an unjust use of federal power. They argue that the DOJ’s recent actions are part of a coordinated effort to intimidate and marginalize them. This could lead to a flurry of legal challenges, with Republican leaders vowing to fight back against what they perceive as governmental overreach.

What about Trump?

It remains to be seen what the Republican candidate for president, Donald Trump, will do. In 2016, Trump was a strong pro-life candidate. His Supreme Court appointments helped lead to the overturning of Roe. But this year, he has changed his abortion views to canter to moderate, pro-choice voters. Will he stand up to the DOJ for going after pro-life Americans?

He will have to, if he hopes to hold on to his conservative base. Republicans have long blasted Democrats for weaponizing the government against conservatives and Trump supporters. If Trump won’t stand by them now, he could lose them for good.

Key Takeaways:

  • Newly released data suggest the Democrat-run DOJ has been targeting pro-life Americans.
  • Data provided by Rep. Chip Roy revealed the DOJ used an 1870 statute to pursue harsh penalties for pro-life protesters.
  • Meanwhile, this DOJ has only prosecuted five people who attacked pro-life centers; in recent years, hundreds of pro-life centers have been vandalized.
