FBI Criticized for Lack of Response to Attacks on Pro-Life Organizations
American Greatness ^ | 30 Jun, 2022 | Eric Lendrum

As dozens of churches, pregnancy centers, and various other pro-life organizations fall victim to domestic terrorist attacks, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is facing widespread criticism over its failure to address this rising trend.

As reported by Just The News, Senator Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) sent a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray demanding that these “violent attacks are recognized by the FBI and are being properly investigated for what they are – cases of abortion-related violent extremism.”

“There have been at least 40 violent attacks on crisis pregnancy centers, religious institutions, and other pro-life entities since the Dobbs leak and before the Court even issued its final opinion,” Grassley continued in his letter. “This violence continues to cause injury, damage to property, and interruption of constitutionally protected worship services all across the nation. In fact, it substantially accelerated last weekend, after the opinion was issued.”

“Current threats from abortion extremists are impending, serious, and dangerous,” Grassley warned.

As Grassley referenced, attacks against pro-life groups and their headquarters accelerated after the leak in early May of a draft of the Supreme Court’s decision in the case of Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which intended to overturn both Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. Dozens of buildings were vandalized, with some even being firebombed, and with explicitly pro-abortion messages and threats left behind in graffiti. The attacks only worsened leading up to the Supreme Court formally issuing the decision on Friday.

“I applaud Sen. Grassley for his efforts to protect pro-life pregnancy centers, churches, and other institutions,” said Eric Scheidler, executive director for the Pro-Life Action League. “It is critical that the FBI thoroughly investigate the rash of attacks on pro-life groups since the Dobbs draft was leaked, which have only intensified since the official ruling came down. The media have largely ignored these attacks, which don’t fit their narrative, but if law enforcement doesn’t step up, vandalism may escalate to physical violence and even homicide.”

“More than 40 pregnancy centers and churches have been attacked in the wake of the Supreme Court’s decision overturning Roe v. Wade,” said Peter Breen of the Thomas More Society. “But there’s been a media blackout on this violence, and pro-abortion politicians refuse to acknowledge it. We expect the Biden administration to do just as much to protect pro-life pregnancy resource centers as it would for abortion facilities.”

The Biden Administration’s silence on the wave of pro-abortion terrorist attacks has widely been understood to be due to Biden and his administration agreeing with the pro-abortion protesters, similarly to how Democrats largely supported the race riots and acts of domestic terrorism carried out by Black Lives Matter and Antifa in the summer of 2020. The White House in recent weeks has been more focused on supporting abortion than on calling out the political violence in response to the decision.

On the left, political violence is not considered a violent crime if they are doing it. It is just a useful tactic to them.

Who is shocked? There is no investigation of the summer riots of 202, no investigations of the Arizona capitol insurrection, nothing. The FBI is nothing but dirty cops working in a left wing American version of the KGB and Gestapo. They have no credibility at all. Just another bunch of dirty cops.

From the stories of the Capitol riots It looks like the FBI could be part of burning Churches.

The first four words in my Bible are “in the beginning God...”

The first four words in whatever demonic text the left worships is “by any means necessary...”

There is NO bottom to how far they will go atain their agenda.

It’s high time we all came to that realization.

The FBI has become a national disgrace.

They are goons for the Democrat Party.

The FBI is the biggest and most evil criminal organization on the planet.
No other organization comes even close.
Chris Christie's boy Wray has turned out to be every bit as evil as expected.

Why investigate? I’m sure they know who’s responsible.

To Senator Fogbound:

Stop the BS posturing and defund the FBI.

If the FBI is not totally done away with, this country will be ruined beyond repair.

And we can not wait two years to do it.

It sounds like the FBI agents have been busy tracking down retirees, who were in DC on 1/6/21 and taking away their phones and computers, ransacking their homes, and shackling them in front of their grandchildren.

Because it is important to them, in conspiracy with the DNC and MSM, to be able to continue to say that more arrests are being made “even this long after the insurrection”......

“The White House in recent weeks has been more focused on supporting abortion than on calling out the political violence in response to the decision.”

They’re actually more focused on instigating domestic terrorism than preventing it.

The left has ALWAYS had a very romanticized view of “revolutionary violence”, that’s why can sport around in t-shirts emblazoned with pictures of Mao, Che, Stalin, Lenin, Ho Chi Minh, without so much as a thought given to the millions of their victims.

Remember Mao’s words “Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” The left wholeheartedly believes that, and if you look at the rewards that are heaped upon them for rioting, looting, vandalism, arson, and murder, Mao’s words ring true.

We can only expect things to get worse here on out. If the Media-Dem Party loses power in 2022 and 2024, everyone should be prepared for what they will unleash upon the country.

Tucker did a job on the FBI on all the innocent people the FBI has been terrorizing for political reasons since Dementia Joe seized power.

The FBI is about as likely to arrest these arsonists as the Chicago police are to arrest murderers.

[[the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is facing widespread criticism]]

They dont care. They are above the law, and we are not. They are liberal, and therefore well covered for.

Our church has been working with the pregnancy help center we support but the cost is incredibly prohibitive. And no one seems to listen to my idea of personally sitting in front of the church or center with guards.

Not quite sure how to process that one yet.

Tucker did this piece from Brazil. Maybe the FBI will get him in an airport SWAT raid too.
