Friend,
Just when you think Joe Biden couldn't sink any lower ... he does.
When our Navy SEAL 1 case had its first hearing last November, the DOD promised the court that no undue actions would be taken against our plaintiffs while their religious accommodation requests were pending.
That was a LIE. The DOD has and continues to remove our plaintiffs from commands, training and even existing daily duties. On Tuesday, yet another one of our plaintiffs was placed on the Officer Disciplinary Notebook (ODN), which effectively kills the service member's career.
Don't let Biden kick Christians out of the military!
In December, Congress passed a provision as part of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that prohibits the military from dishonorably discharging service members who refuse COVID jabs.
Biden himself signed this into law, indicating his administration would follow the law.
This, too, was a LIE.
In court this month, the DOD's counsel even claimed that courts have no authority over the military!
Then the counsel refused to assure the court that the DOD would abide by this new law.
Judge Steven Merryday noted in his February 18 order that "the defendants' counsel at the hearing could not exclude dishonorable discharge as an available discipline for refusing the vaccine."
All of this is despicable, but now Biden's DOD is using family disruption and the threat of homelessness to bully service members into giving up their religious freedom rights.

Alonzo* is stationed in South Korea. He was scheduled to complete his duties and return to the states. But the DOD will not allow him to leave the base or come home unless he gets the COVID jab. Without the shot, Alonzo will be kicked out of the military and stuck in South Korea. Alonzo faces being stranded in a foreign country without a visa and without a way to get home. Worse yet, the moment Alonzo is kicked out of the military, his wife and newborn back home will be kicked out of their military base housing ... and Alonzo will be stuck 7,000 miles away.
Elizabeth* and her family are stationed in Germany. She refuses to violate her religious convictions against taking an abortion-linked drug, so Biden won't move Elizabeth and her family back to the U.S. On a soldier's salary, there is no way Elizabeth and her husband can afford to move her family back to America. And like Alonzo, Elizabeth's family would be stranded in a foreign country without visas--they would effectively be illegal aliens.
Biden's DOD is using psychological warfare on our own honorable service members!
When threats of dishonorable discharge, family separation and abandonment don't work, Biden's DOD has taken even more extreme tactics to bully and coerce our armed forces members into obeying an unlawful order—in other words, deploying psychological warfare against our own military men and women!
John* has already been relieved of his regular duties, despite the DOD's promises to the judge. This Lieutenant Colonel is confined to an empty office every day. There is no phone or computer—just an empty desk and white walls to stare at as he waits for his shift to pass. Superior officers regularly check in to ensure John is not doing anything. This is psychological torture meant to mimic imprisonment. It is effectively solitary confinement meant to break the mind and spirit to bend the subject to the abusers' will.
On Tuesday, February 22, Liberty Counsel filed another request for the court to grant class action status to our case, and extend the preliminary injunction order we won for Lt. Col. Mary* and Commander Charles* to the entire United States military.
Don't let Joe Biden kick committed Christians out of the military. Help us DEFEND RELIGIOUS FREEDOM!
To date, we have received formal requests for legal assistance from more than 700 service members from all branches of the United States Armed Forces, including the Army, Air Force, Space Force, Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard.
And more continue to roll in every day.
We will take this case all the way to the Supreme Court to force this administration to OBEY THE LAW!
We need your help.
These brave men and women of the military have sacrificed everything to protect our freedom. Please, prayerfully consider making a sacrificial gift to protect their freedom TODAY. A generous Challenge Grant will DOUBLE THE IMPACT of your gift.
STOP JOE BIDEN's RELIGIOUS DISCRIMINATION against Faithful Military Members!
