Trump already making a difference...​




A federal judge has paused an attempt by the Biden administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) to imprison Christian pro-life activists for up to ten years.


Judge Matthew Leitman, an Obama appointee, paused the DOJ’s FACE Act and felony conspiracy case against seven pro-life activists who are awaiting sentencing over a peaceful protest at a Michigan abortion clinic, citing the results of the 2024 election and the potential for the next presidential administration to handle such cases differently.

Judge Pauses Case Against Pro-Lifers Until Trump’s White House Return


We're six weeks from inauguration and already political persecution and religious persecution is being canceled.
 
“As further discussed on the record, the Court will conduct another status conference during the week of March 24, 2025, to receive a report from the Government trial team as to whether there has been any change in the Government’s position with respect to the continuation of this case and/or with respect to the positions expected to be advanced by the Defendants in their post-trial motions,” Leitman said in a Nov. 19 order obtained by Breitbart News.


Steve Crampton, senior counsel for Thomas More Society and a lawyer involved with the case, told Breitbart News in a phone interview that Leitman ordered for the case to be revisited 60 days after Trump’s inauguration, in spite of the government’s objections, to see whether the DOJ had implemented a new policy or not.


“I would say it’s pretty unusual in my 40 years of practice. I’ve never seen it before,” Crampton said, when asked if a judge pausing such a case in an anticipation of a new administration is out of the ordinary.
