And so there was just a complete lack of respect for the Christian and more broadly religious viewpoint.
To get Christians off of juries, in the case of a companion report that we issued a few weeks ago,
our Faith Act weaponization report, where disparaging remarks were made by DOJ prosecutors in my department, former prosecutors now in my department here, about a magistrate judge being a Catholic, keeping people of faith off of juries, and going after and seeking sentences that were more than double for Christian protesters outside abortion clinics,
than for uh really domestic terrorists going after pro-life centers in florida in you know one one important case after the dobbs decision so these disparities were marked they were open they were written down in emails and uh you know thank goodness that we have a president today who is not just dedicated to changing that but also documenting
what happened so that people should feel ashamed to do this to other people of faith in our country, because our country is founded on faith and specifically on the Christian faith.
Well, Glenn, it very much could happen again.
I mean, you can count on it happening again.
In fact, Hakeem Jeffries and the James Comeys and other prominent figures in the world are promising that punishment of conservatives will happen if the parties change.
Now, we don't do the opposite, but what I will tell you is that lawyers in this department who violated the rights of Americans, including Brady violations against defendants,
refusing to disclose exculpatory evidence in some of these weaponized faith-related cases, they no longer work here.
So yeah, sure, they could reapply in four years or three years, but their careers would have moved on by then.
And frankly, if they want to fight, I mean, we have records, but before anyone gets terminated here, there's a record of what they did and that'll all be a public record.
So I think that is an improvement.
I mean, a lot of people have
criticized me on the Hill, and Democrats have criticized me for the fact that 75% of the lawyers in the Civil Rights Division left after I became the Assistant Attorney General.
That is absolutely a positive development.
For one thing, most of those lawyers were biased, and no one is entitled to a forever job here.
What we have now, and we're building back up here,
is Second Amendment lovers, is people who love liberty, Christians, Jews, people of faith, people of all faiths are welcome here if they are willing to respect the Constitution and commit to the civil rights agenda that's consistent with protecting all Americans, not just the favored few.
And back to that weaponization report,
