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.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.
But the memo warns that this time, extremist acts could come from abortion-rights proponents as well."The mere advocacy of political or social positions, political activism, use of strong rhetoric, or generalized philosophic embrace of violent tactics does not constitute domestic violent extremism or illegal activity and is constitutionally protected.
"DHS is also committed to working with our partners across every level of government and the private sector to share timely information and intelligence, prevent all forms of violence, and to support law enforcement efforts to keep our communities safe.”The Roe decision is flypaper for extremists. The memo, along with communications between government and the private sector, show how multiple agencies are mobilizing to try to get ahead of ahead of civil unrest.
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."the Biden administration had made a focus of combatting domestic violent extremism. DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has called the issue one of the
The scoop would be finding out who leaked this and why.
But the Dobbs draft says Roe created political rifts. Dobbs is gonna heal that. Ask Justice Alito, he'll tell you.
BretBaier It is a shame the tantrum the liberal\\left\\progressives\\pro-choice, whatever they call themselves, feel they have the right to take when something does not go the way they think it should. Disagree all you want, but violence is never the answer. That is called being a bully!!!
Screenshot of DHS memo content. So, they're already prepared to protect the 'squad' and others who no doubt will be using their bullhorns to encourage violence. Double standard? 🤔
The violence has been there from the media when Trump took office years ago the verbal attacks still does exist against them and his family that's why we are the silent voters ..peace
I don't seem to recall conservatives burning down the country when RoeVWade was originally established. I wonder where the violence will come from?
Here we go again with the mostly peaceful protests
This is so 2020. Come up with something new
Well this statement is the firewood that will ignite the flames... curious to see who has the matches
The left is going to do its best to engage in peaceful protests while the right wing propagandists continue to insist the peaceful protests are riots. Then, the big govt, anti-choice, womb snatchers will false flag & counter protest like assholes until it all descends into chaos.
Leftist violence. Isolated to the cities and soyboys.
The left will continue to get violent. They’ll lose big this fall and get more violent. And they’ll lose even BIGGER in 2024. Lock and load. 😂
People wanting to save 'white babies' ...lol..nicely worked in that white supremacy angle.... fyi black women abortion 5x more than whites so either your readers aren't fully educated on abortion or you assume they aren't capable of fact based critical thinking.
You mean LEFTIST violence.
Strange how similar security arrangements were never made for Jan. 6, even though there were enough “red flags” to start a May Day Parade.
Republics don’t riot…..because they have something to lose……like jobs
Liberals will gender fluid all over the country...
what a crazy reason to be so angry. america needs more love.
Just like all the fencing and barricades that went up all over America in the event of a 2020 Trump. You'll notice there was no violence after Buden won, not even 6 January. Well, there was by government agents....
From whom do we expect violence? Can’t be the good guys
Mostly peaceful violence
Well I guess I am just going to just sit back and watch this one.
Is it “DHS is preparing to stage and ignore certain violence veiled as “mostly peaceful protests”? Wake up people, those running the government are not on our side, regardless of whether you are left/right, Dem/GOP, liberal/conservative, Black/White. The elite want power and $.
Lovely, more 'mostly peaceful protesters' to burn and loot the cities. Wonder why this group always gets a free pass to commit political violence.
White suprematists in action.
Which type? The legal, 'mostly peaceful' kind, or the illegal, 'literally insurrection' kind?
When the left doesn’t get what they want, we all assume they’ll be violent.
Why don't they just tell their operatives to not be violent
Let's compare the anticipated riots with the January 6th riots just for fun. They're both unequivocally inexcusable, but I'm still curious about the difference in scale and execution.
If they try to enter the Supreme Court building, will the FBI investigate every single protester for “insurrection”?
How dare their fellow Americans deny them the right to murder infants! 🤬
This will change to “mostly peaceful” soon as the violence starts.
So already not mostly peaceful eh?
from whomstve
Surely the media will brand it an “insurrection,” right?
Sounds like the Left’s Jan 6th
The left and Democrats destroy and burn sh*t? You can’t be serious.
This is an insurrection and a threat to democracy.
yashar Pro Choice advocates are not the violent mob. That is the GOP supporters.
BretBaier Pretty sure the violence will be from the left
The democrats will do billions more in damage,destroy businesses and murder more people all over the country just like they did during the rioting of 2020&2021.
SharylAttkisson As long as they’re violent in Democrat cities, I’m mostly peaceful about this
BretBaier 40 million black ppl have been murdered since 1973 and not one protest, riot or presidential empathy until scotus leaked opinion. America should be way more brown today but the left want it all white. They are the KKK w/o the sheets.
Let the left show their true colors to the world, so when they are arrested, or if violence is their choice, eliminated, the world knows the real reason why and the liberal media can't spin it
Sounds like the Left has an insurrection brewing. You should tell the authorities.
Those damn right-wing, white supremacist violent extremists. O wait…
Oh you mean violence endorsed by the the Left…”mostly peaceful”
Who!? Who is going to be violent? TEH YT SUPREEMASISS!?!?
From whom?
Occupy Wall St. Summer of Love What’ll we call it this time?
But I thought the Left were just peaceful protesters…at least that’s what yall were saying a couple summers ago!!
A surge in political violence meaning……domestic terrorism? By whom?
Ah. Isn’t this the party that is so distraught about the horrors of January 6th?
You misspelled 'left-wing violence'.
Care to elaborate where the violence will be coming from?
You mean from liberals! It’s ok you can say it bias news
Brandi_Buchman Right wing extremists?
And left will just stand by and let it happen.
They weren't ready for the January 6 seditionists but they're sure going to be ready for women who have lost their bodily autonomy
NOPE. Be very careful here. Our side is OVERWHELINGLY PEACEFUL. If a bunch of right wing provacoteurs decide to fuck with that don’t you DARE blame all of us. You fall into this trap every time STUPID STUPID MEDIA
sure, because we're the problem 😒
