Americans Must Not Kneel to the Biden Administration’s Bullying

Biden’s America is utterly unrecognizable from the “land of the free” that our Founding Fathers envisioned. Through the weaponization of government agencies, as well as a ruthless, calculated fight for radical abortion and transgender policies, the Biden administration has effectively forced millions of Americans to choose between living out their faith or to suffer serious harassment, persecution and even punishment for their sincerely held beliefs.   

The Biden administration recently showed its hand by announcing that it is reversing plans to station the U.S. Space Command’s headquarters in Alabama and would instead make Colorado Springs its permanent headquarters. This change has left little doubt it is due “in part because of concerns about the state’s restrictive abortion law, according to two U.S. officials and one U.S. defense official familiar with the discussions.”    

The whole situation reeks of the administration’s mob-like tactics. Anyone paying attention can see the change is also retaliation against Alabama’s Senator Tommy Tuberville, who has spent the past few months heroically fighting the Biden administration’s illegal attempt to use the Department of Defense (DOD) as a vehicle to promote military abortions.

In February the DOD began violating both the longstanding Hyde amendment, as well as federal law 10 USC 1093, to fund abortion-related travel expenses for service members and their families. Senator Tuberville responded by promising to block all military nominations until the illegal directive was ended, and since then has blocked over 230 nominations.

Of course, Biden’s cronies claimed that the Space Command debacle had nothing to do with Tuberville, though they admitted that “he’s not helping.” The truth is that the Administration is sending a message to Senator Tuberville who had the gall to stand in the way of its far-left agenda. Tuberville’s state will now suffer a major financial and scientific loss and the Biden administration is hoping his constituents will blame Tuberville instead of Biden whose illegal activity led to this whole situation.

That is how the Biden administration operates – reward for those who toe the line, and intolerance, open hostility, and persecution for those who stand  in the way of their radical gender and abortion agenda. This pattern has been demonstrated amply throughout the past two years, as the Administration has exhausted every taxpayer resource to punish political opponents, while ignoring the widespread violence, hatred and outright domestic terrorism far left radicals have inflicted on pro-life organizations and churches around the nation.

For example, Biden’s far left friends in the Department of Justice had no qualms fighting to send Mark Houck, a pro-life father of 9, to jail for 11 years for a crime he was promptly acquitted of by a jury of his peers. The Biden administration’s ruthless pursuit of its political opponents didn’t end there. In 2022 alone, Biden’s DOJ indicted 26 pro-life advocates with violations of the Freedom to Access Clinic Entrances Act (FACE) which carry an 11-year prison sentence. Conversely, less than 1% of the nearly 400 violent attacks on pro-life organizations and Catholic Churches around the country have resulted in federal charges. And a man who literally shot an elderly pro-life woman got a mere 100 hours (about 4 days) of community service for his heinous crime. 

Americans were supposed to look the other way when the FBI was caught spying on faithful Catholics at religious services, while circulating memos smearing Catholics as potential domestic extremists, and encouraging agents to use Catholic churches as “new avenues for tripwire and source development.”   

Weaponizing government against political opponents is nothing new to Biden though. He was part of an administration that for years attempted to force Catholic nuns, the Little Sisters of the Poor, to violate their religious beliefs and consciences by providing contraceptives and abortifacients in their healthcare plans.   

All of these innocent Americans, and others we have not mentioned, share a common courage in standing up to an administration that doesn’t tolerate dissent from its radical, extreme orthodoxy.   

We should look to these brave Americans for encouragement. We simply must not cave to Biden’s attempts to bully everyone who disagrees into compliance. Like Senator Tuberville, Mark Houck, the Little Sisters, and others, we must stand for human life and freedom over a government that has been weaponized against many of its own people.
