The Trump administration is sending a crystal clear message to the radical left: attacks on American churches will not be tolerated. Attorney General Pam Bondi announced Friday that 30 additional defendants have been charged in connection with the organized assault on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, where congregants were allegedly terrorized by an extremist mob.
This superseding indictment represents exactly the kind of decisive action Patriots voted for when they put President Trump back in the White House. While the Biden regime turned a blind eye to attacks on churches and Christians across America, the Trump-Bondi Justice Department is actually enforcing the law.
The January assault on Cities Church wasn't just some spontaneous protest - this was an organized attack designed to intimidate Americans exercising their First Amendment right to worship freely. For too long, radical leftist groups have felt emboldened to target churches, knowing they faced little consequence under previous administrations.

Attorney General Bondi's swift action sends a powerful message that religious persecution will face the full force of federal prosecution under the Trump administration. This is what real justice looks like - not the weaponized DOJ we endured for four years under Biden, but actual law enforcement protecting law-abiding Americans.
The timing couldn't be more significant. Just weeks into Trump's second term, his administration is already delivering on campaign promises to defend religious liberty and crack down on organized criminal activity targeting places of worship.
"This administration will not allow radical extremists to terrorize American families in their houses of worship," the Justice Department's announcement effectively declares through these expanded charges.
For too long, churches across America have faced escalating attacks while federal law enforcement focused on investigating parents at school board meetings and labeling concerned citizens as "domestic terrorists." Those days are over.
This case represents more than just individual prosecutions - it's a clear signal that the Trump administration will protect the constitutional rights that make America great. While Democrats spent years attacking religious Americans, President Trump and AG Bondi are standing with people of faith.
The question now is: how many other organized attacks on churches occurred under Biden that were ignored? Patriots deserve answers - and justice.
