Roe v. Wade: Homeland Security fears attacks on SCOTUS by….. Anti-Abortion Extremists?
Bring out the crazy pills.
The U.S. government is bracing for a potential surge in political violence once the Supreme Court hands down the ruling that’s expected to overturn Roe v. Wade, according to a Department of Homeland Security memo obtained by Axios.
The big picture: Law enforcement agencies are investigating social-media threats to burn down or storm the Supreme Court building and murder justices and their clerks, as well as attacks targeting places of worship and abortion clinics.
Details: The unclassified May 13 memo by DHS’ intelligence arm says threats that followed the leak of a draft opinion — targeting Supreme Court Justices, lawmakers and other public officials, as well as clergy and health care providers — “are likely to persist and may increase leading up to and following the issuing of the Court’s official ruling.”
“Some racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists’ embrace of pro-life narratives may be linked to the perception of wanting to ‘save white children’ and ‘fight white genocide,'” the memo also says.
But the memo warns that this time, extremist acts could come from abortion-rights proponents as well.

The official position of the administration is that White Supremacy is the biggest threat for the country. Therefore they need to attach it to everything they can no matter how absurd it may seem.
The mass shooting in Buffalo, N.Y., over the weekend has “complicated everything even more,” said Jonathan Wackrow, a risk management consultant and a former special agent with the U.S. Secret Service.
“The attack in Buffalo actually has a measured impact on this Roe decision and how people will will react to it,” he told Axios. “You see that people are willing to engage in the most violent acts in furtherance of that ideology.
Is it required to have the IQ of a slug to work for DHS now? Or simply being a dishonorable asshole willing to become a goon for a paycheck and a pension? Both?
