“It’s very ‘Handmaid’s Tale’-esque,” one official said.
The Trump administration has ordered State Department employees to report on any instances of coworkers displaying “anti-Christian bias” as part of its effort to implement a sweeping new executive order on supporting employees of Christian faith working in the federal government.
The department, according to a copy of an internal cable obtained by POLITICO, will work with an administration-wide task force to collect information “involving anti-religious bias during the last presidential administration” and will collect examples of anti-Christian bias through anonymous employee report forms.
The cable was sent out to embassies around the world under Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s name. The instructions also were released in a department-wide notice.

Do they mean like when their leadership is revoking student visas, going Leviticus 19:34 states: “You shall treat the stranger who sojourns with you as the native among you, and you shall love him as yourself”.
Leviticus is from the Jewish part, though, and is therefore inherently less valuable to Christians unless there’s anything in there about murdering gays or treating women like property.
And what about the book of James which says the same thing in different words?
Well, they also don’t like the natives, or themselves, so honestly good work keeping true to the book. 🙃
Do you hate Donna in accounting for wishing you a “happy holidays” in 2021? Now you finally have the opportunity to get back at that god-hating bitch! Rat her out to HR and send her ass to El Salvador!
/s
Goddamn.
I don’t think the /s is appropriate. That’s like…gonna happen.
I didn’t want to get flamed by anyone that couldn’t immediately see it was a joke lol
Yeah but like… it’s not a joke
I don’t think this person actually thinks Donna is a bitch though. Or is actually encouraging people to do that.
Oh Donna’s sweet. This administration however - evil AF.
Fuck religion, brain dead morons
We are cursed to live in a society where most grown ass adults still believe in magic.
I’m an atheist, but I don’t think we should hate on other people based on their religion, tbh. The problem is the institutions and persons that take advantage of people’s faith.
People are free to believe whatever they want to believe, that’s none of our business, imho; but… to whoever exploits people’s beliefs and vulnerabilities, fuck them worthless pieces of bloody shit to the infinity. Again, imho.
You know, I totally agree people are free to believe whatever they want and obviously I know and am friends with/family with people who are religious and I don’t necessarily think poorly of them on an individual basis.
However, my belief on a personal level is religion is fucking stupid and an artifact of humans from a bygone age when we were significantly dumber, unintelligent, and didn’t know anything about the world and universe. I hate religion and wish I could live long enough to see it die. It makes me so happy knowing that overall religious individuals, at least in the US, are declining year over year.
I’m aggressive about it here because this is the internet and those are my true feelings. But ya irl it would be pretty scummy to be so hostile and rude to someone based purely on their religious beliefs
Hear hear. People are trying to live their lives and grapple with the universe in a way that they can cope with. But the institutions themselves are evil, barbaric relics that belong in history books.
100%, I’ve made my distaste for religion clear but I’m honestly jealous of them sometimes. How nice would it be to truly believe there is a heaven or after life of some kind, that would be a nice feeling indeed.

I’m not particularly anti-religious, but this is essentially the “not all men” argument in clerical robes.
There is no place for religious believes in a workplace or anwhere outside basically. You have a job to do that should be defined. Where does god come into this? If you believe god forbids to do xy on the job then the job is not for you. Just quit.
how very constitutional
That’s rich coming from a bunch of fucks who would pay money to line up to waterboard their own savior.
Should report trump for being an Antichrist
“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
Alright bet.
So…
The entire fucking GOP, all of project 2025?
Let’s ask the fuckin Pope, shall we?? Put up or STFU. This administration is such a pathetic display of cowardice.
So in case you didn’t get the memo, lots of evangelicals don’t like the pope because he’s too tolerant.
Yea, that’s all well and good.
That’s not how Catholicism works.
I don’t like Trump. Doesn’t mean dick.
I was just recently having an internal debate on whether to refer to the US government as extremist Christians or not. I guess this solves that dilemma.
and I thought all the previous reporting/tip lines were ripe for abuse. brava, you dipshits have really outdone yourselves.
At least now I have something to yell if a member of the US government attempts to grab me off the street—“This is religious persecution! I’m a Christian!”
It should take them a while to sort that out.
State
I would abuse the shit out of this.
How’s that first amendment working? No? How about the second, then?
This has always been the next step. They go after gays and transvestites first. Then it’s atheist and any non-Christian person. The Christian fascist are taking over. Arm yourselves
