Biden's DOJ sent armed agents to arrest a pro-life grandfather for praying outside an abortion clinic.
Now CNN is telling you Christians aren't being persecuted.
And Scott Jennings just made Sara Sidner look foolish on live television.
The CNN Panel That Stopped Watching the News
Armed FBI agents showed up at a 73-year-old man's home and arrested him in front of his family for praying outside an abortion clinic.
CNN host Sara Sidner just told Scott Jennings she has never seen Christians silenced "in any way, shape, or form."
Jennings looked at her like she'd lost her mind – and then made her look foolish on live television.
Sidner didn't hedge.

She didn't say Christian persecution was exaggerated or overstated.
She said she had not seen it happen in any way, shape, or form – because she hears people talk about religion on the airwaves every day.
Jennings replied directly.
"We have Christian persecution going on around the world," he told her. "We have slaughtered Christians in Africa that nobody seems to … I don't see any protests on college campuses for them."
He's right – and the examples closer to home are even harder to ignore.
What Biden's DOJ Actually Did to Christians
The 73-year-old grandfather from the headline is Mark Houck, a pro-life Catholic activist.
Biden's DOJ deployed a SWAT-style team to his Pennsylvania home, guns drawn, in front of his wife and seven children, over a misdemeanor-level sidewalk dispute outside an abortion clinic.
A jury acquitted him in forty-five minutes.
The Biden DOJ also spent years trying to force the Little Sisters of the Poor – Catholic nuns who run hospice homes for the elderly dying in poverty – to pay for birth control and abortions.

That case went to the Supreme Court twice.
The nuns won both times.
Biden's people kept coming.
In Washington state, Democrats passed legislation requiring priests to violate the seal of confession or face jail time – targeting one of the most sacred obligations in all of Catholic theology.
In Colorado, Jack Phillips has been hauled into court repeatedly for more than a decade for declining to design custom cakes that violated his Christian faith.
He won at the Supreme Court in 2018.
Colorado came after him again.
The System Democrats Built to Punish Your Faith
The Left doesn't need jackboots in the street.
They have regulatory agencies, state attorneys general, and activist judges willing to make practicing your faith economically ruinous and legally dangerous.
The FACE Act was a federal law meant to prevent violence at abortion clinics.
Biden's DOJ turned it into a weapon against Catholics who sang hymns and prayed on public sidewalks.
That's not an accident – it's a strategy.

Jennings also referenced Dr. Larry Arnn of Hillsdale College, who spoke at the National Prayer Breakfast about Lincoln's Second Inaugural – the address delivered at the end of the bloodiest war in American history, calling a fractured nation back together through shared faith.
"If we're going to have some national unity in this country," Jennings said, "political division has driven us apart. But it may be faith that drives us back together."
Ana Navarro sat next to him with the expression of someone who had already decided not to listen.
The CNN panel's dismissal isn't ignorance.
It's a choice.
These are people who would dedicate a week of coverage to a Pride flag pulled off a flagpole but can't find two minutes for a grandfather arrested at gunpoint in front of his children for praying.
Your grandfather has been watching this double standard for thirty years.
Scott Jennings named it on camera at CNN.
That's precisely why the Left wants him gone.
