This article caught my eye by containing both the words 'White House' and 'Bible' in the title. I was interested in reading a political article, still in the spirit after last night's State of the Union speech, and while it's not quite was I was looking for, this one stood out to me.
The editorial is written no doubt in response to the recent creation of a "Conscience and Religious Freedom Division" in the Department of Health and Human Services, to enforce laws regarding health care provider's rights to remove themselves from a situation going against their religion; this the article states. From the start, the writing is painfully biased against both the new division and the Trump administration for even considering such a thing. However, because The New York Times is a more liberal news source altogether, this bias was not unexpected. The article serves to direct attention to a new concerning topic while pulling from the continuing controversy of another one: abortion.
