What Happened
Federal agencies have begun implementing directives from Executive Order 14202, signed in February, which established a task force to eliminate perceived “anti-Christian bias” in government. According to new reports, employees across the Department of Veterans Affairs, State Department, and others are now being asked to report co-workers, policies, or decisions they view as discriminatory against Christians.
Official guidance encourages reporting:
- Denials of religious exemptions (e.g., for vaccines or procedures)
- Disciplinary actions against those who refuse tasks on religious grounds
- “Hostile” language or secular workplace policies interpreted as anti-Christian
Employees are instructed to submit names, incidents, dates, and departmental details to designated internal channels.
Why It Matters
This goes far beyond protecting religious liberty. These reporting directives embed religious ideology as an enforcement tool inside federal governance — enabling internal surveillance based on belief.
They risk:
- Weaponizing Christian identity to punish or silence secular, interfaith, or LGBTQ+ employees
- Encouraging selective enforcement based on religious conformity
- Eroding workplace trust and objectivity in federal service
This is not equal protection — it’s institutional favoritism through religious policing.
How It Contributes to the Drift
This is an escalation of the earlier February breach. The task force created by EO 14202 is no longer just policy — it’s being used to enforce religious norms, suppress dissent, and reframe internal discipline through a sectarian lens.
Authoritarian parallels include:
- Encouraging peer reporting on ideological grounds
- Establishing belief-based compliance within government roles
- Undermining the secular nature of civic employment
This escalates the original drift into an active mechanism of control, where ideology is not only protected, but enforced.
Watcher Notes
This isn't just about religious liberty — it's about religious favoritism.
By encouraging federal workers to report each other for “anti-Christian bias,” the government is no longer upholding the separation of church and state — it’s enforcing the dominance of one religion over all others.
When a government actively favors one belief system, it stops being a neutral institution. It becomes a tool of ideological enforcement. That’s not liberty — that’s drift.
The Constitution was never meant to serve any one religion.
This moment reminds us why.
