FBI visits home of pro-life activist's mother in act she says was meant 'to intimidate:' 'Refuse to back down'
Fox News ^ | May 18, 2023 | Lindsay Kornick

A Ring doorbell camera caught two FBI agents speaking with a pro-life activist’s mother in recently released video.

The Daily Signal first reported Wednesday on the footage showing the agents, identified as Ashley Roberts and Kathleen Brown, visiting the childhood home of Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising (PAAU) member Elise Ketch on April 18 at approximately 2:45 P.M. Though Ketch no longer resides in the Woodbridge, Virginia, house, her mother, Tracy Ketch, spoke with the agents who were looking for her daughter.

"We just need to speak with her regarding some information that was sent to us," Roberts said.

She continued, "She’s not in any trouble. We just have some information we need to ask her about."

When Ketch’s mother asked if she could take pictures of their badges, Roberts replied, "Unfortunately, we’re not allowed to have anyone take our pictures." 

After requesting contact information, Ketch’s mother then asked what the reason behind the visit was. Roberts declined to answer.

"We would tell you all the information because, like I said, she’s not in any trouble, but just out of respect for her, we’d like to speak with her first and then, if she feels like talking to you, which I’m sure she will because it’s nothing," Roberts said.

Additional footage showed Ketch’s mother calling Elise to alert her about the FBI agents.

"Mom, don’t tell them anything," Ketch was heard saying.

Ketch said in a statement originally given to The Daily Signal that she has "no idea" why FBI agents went to her mother’s home or what information they were sent, but had "a few guesses as to what was going on." 

"My colleague at Progressive Anti-Abortion Uprising, Lauren Handy, is indicted under the FACE [Freedom of Access Clinic Entrances] Act and is being prosecuted by the federal

Nice to know the rule of law (and our Constitution and all related rights) have been kicked to the curb by the very departments of the Federal government that are sworn to protect those laws. We live in an upside down world swirling down the toilet bowl. It’s going to get a lot uglier before freedom, as originally designed, returns......if ever. I got a really bad feeling for the future of the U.S. I don’t recognize it at all from my youth, especially the past thirty years. So this is how civilizations fall....destroyed from the inside. As we watch from the sidelines, nauseous.

From the article:

“She continued, “She’s not in any trouble. We just have some information we need to ask her about.”

Well, there ya go. I mean, the FBI wouldn’t lie or anything, would they?

I remember when this was not the case. They were on our side. Glad I’m old and won’t have to endure this long. But in the meantime...!

Name, rank, and serial number is all I would ever give the enemy. And considering I’m not and never have been military, all I could ever do to interact with the FIB would be to confirm my name. And of course that would be WhoIsAlanGreenspan? Sorry if that doesn’t filet your mignon, perhaps you should head for McDonalds. I hear they have good hamburgers, but don’t quote me.

That's the M.O.: some leftie makes something up, and rather than investigating the real perp, the FIB dutifully chases down the falsely accused.

Let’s just call them what they really are- the new face of the Stasi. May they repent and make an honest living.

“She’s not in any trouble”

Until she talks to them and they fabricate a BS crime to throw her in prison. Don’t say a word to any of those gestapo criminals.

ATF goons tried the same thing in my neck of the woods during the Holder Obama “under the radar” gun grabbing days. Some ATF informant turd or undercover went to all the machine shops in the area and asked if they could finish some AR15 lower receivers. I told him no and to leave.

A few days later 2 ATF turds showed up and demanded to enter my shop because “we heard you may be making guns in here.”

I didn’t let them in and called the sheriff on them (who passed unfortunately because he was no fan of the feds) for trespassing. Of course the usual, “Oh you’re not in any trouble yet. We just want to have a look around. If you aren’t doing anything wrong we’ll be on our way. We can get a warrant but we really don’t want to do that.”

Simply say “I have nothing to say. Good bye.”

Some other guys in town let these turds freely walk through their shops just to “check things out.”

Fbi agents lie and they can. But if we lie to them, it is a crime.

The fbi is the enemy.

If Biden gets control of the guns, the FBI will be running this country just like the Communists in 1930’s Russia..

The tenacity of our benevolent communist rulers in imposing more & more tyranny is unmatched by those seeking (supposedly) to protect our Constitutional freedoms & liberties...

Stinking communist bastards continue to run roughshod over the servile & indolent Aamerican sheeple...

There are no limits to tyranny...
There is no end in sight!
So:
Bow down!... Obey!... Snitch!...
