Supreme Court justices have faced harassment and intimidation after a pro-abortion group calling itself Ruth Sent Us posted a map to their homes.
Justice Alito and his family, who wrote the draft opinion on abortion that had been leaked by leftists, have had to go into hiding at an undisclosed location.
Had conservative protests outside the homes of Sotomayor and Kagan led one of them to go into hiding, the FBI would already be on the case and the media would be calling it an insurrection and a threat to democracy, but it’s not political terrorism when leftists do it.
So you can be confident that none of the leftists threatening Supreme Court justices will themselves face justice. And if a single one of them is arrested, they will immediately have the best lawyers and a media press campaign claiming that free speech is being silenced.
Just to add bigoted intimidation of houses of worship, Ruth Sent Us also called for protests at Catholic churches. “Stand at or in a local Catholic Church,” it urged on its Twitter account.
While over the past two years, Big Tech companies have suspended or deplatformed conservative groups over the encouragement of political protests, including against lockdowns, Twitter has no problem with leftists encouraging the harassment of houses of worship.
“Do you dare to chant in your local churches?”
Abortion activists dressed like characters from the faltering Hulu TV show The Handmaid's Tale disrupted prayer services while chanting their support for the murder of babies.
Despite the harassment of justices and churches, Ruth Sent Us retains all of its social media accounts. Neither Facebook, TikTok nor Twitter have deplatformed the hate group.
Who is behind Ruth Sent Us?
It certainly isn't Ruth Bader Ginsburg, after whom the group is named, who would have been disgusted by the harassment of her colleagues. Ginsburg had been a good friend of the late Antonin Scalia and had been critical of Roe v. Wade's unsustainable expansiveness. Alito’s leaked draft even quotes her. While Ruth Sent Us falsely claims that Gingsberg believed that, "black lives matter", the former justice was actually harshly critical of anthem protests.
She would have been even less fond of harassing justices in their homes.
Ruth Sent Us is meant to appear grassroots. In reality, it’s interlinked with a much larger network of leftist organizations. The site was registered by Sam Spiegel, the director of digital media at an anti-Trump PAC known as Unseat whose email contact is listed as Vigil for Democracy.
Unseat and Vigil for Democracy also appear to share a post office box in Palo Alto, California.
Vigil for Democracy, another anti-Trump group, had organized previous Supreme Court rallies.
Ruth Sent Us promotes activism through something called Strike for Choice which its Twitter account describes as "one of the national strikes under the Vigil For Democracy umbrella."
Strike for Choice solicits donations to pay protesters, asking potential donors "would you commit to donating $58 [$7.25], $80 [$10] or $120 [$15] to support a person giving up paid work?"
The protest fundraising is being conducted through Open Collective, a leftist financial sponsor, which had previously partnered with the Digital Infrastructure Fund backed by $605,000 from the Ford Foundation, $50,000 from leftist Persian billionaire Pierre Omidyar, and $100,000 from George Soros' Open Society Foundation.
Most early Vigil for Democracy events took place in San Francisco and the group still appears to be centered around the Bay Area. Vigil appears to be obsessed with "desegregating Foothills Park", also the particular fixation of Vara Ramakrishnan, a tech CEO's wife and a member of Raging Grannies who had organized previous protests, and has been described as a Vigil for Democracy “volunteer”. While her husband only made a single political donation to Kamala Harris, Vara is a frequent donor to Democrats including Hillary Clinton and Obama.
Both Obama and Hillary have yet to condemn the attacks on the Supreme Court.
While the Vigil for Democracy people have engaged in frequent protests, Ruth Sent Us is a significant escalation, harassing multiple justices and an entire religious denomination.
Ruth Sent Us are not the only leftists promoting the harassment of churches and justices.
A protest at Justice Alito’s house for example was promoted by Shut Down D.C., a group linked to environmentalists and unions.
It’s unclear exactly who is behind Ruth Sent Us and the network of organizations around it, but that network is able to utilize the tools of left-wing groups and is fundraising to pay protesters.
What is clear is that like so much of the leftist radicalism in this country, the attacks on justices and churches are being organized out of the Bay Area. And the Biden administration has repeatedly refused to condemn the harassment and intimidation by its political backers.
Much as Black Lives Matter was able to stage nationwide riots that destroyed neighborhoods, assault innocent people, and take lives without facing any consequences, Ruth Sent Us and other pro-abortion leftist radicals enjoy immunity from trying to stop a judicial ruling.
Threatening judges in ordinary civil and criminal cases leads to harsh sanctions. Mere witness tampering alone is a serious matter. But here leftists are threatening the highest court in the land in order to force it to change its ruling in a case and they are doing so under the protective political and economic umbrella of the White House, of Big Tech, and of the media.
They’re harassing the highest court in the land because they know that nothing will happen to them. It’s not an “insurrection” when leftists do it.

What would Pinochet do?
There are only two kinds of insurrections in the world.
1. Insurrections by the left, that they blame on the right.
2. Insurrections by the left.
I’d say it’s the far left’s DOJ who is paying them to “protest” with their insurrection but that’s just my opinion. On the other hand, it could be the DemocRATS’ “mainstream media” that is paying them to put on their **it show for the dummies who believe everything they see and hear on the boob tube and “da internet”.
how about:
Soros, the FIB, SERCO and the Crown.
The left has zero integrity, and dignity.
They have hatred for anything remotely conservative
and it has gotten worse over time.
They have zero reasoning skills, so are for all purposes
pointless to engage.
The intellectual lefties know this
and exploit their useful idiots
Nothing is sacred to them, so using a
battering ram against the Supreme court
is part of their toolset.
generously.
Ruth Buzzi Ginsberg is a lying plagiarist. Her most famous quote about her brethren putting their feet on her neck was actually spoken by Sarah Moore Grimke in the 19th century. However, her loving admirers continue to attribute that quote to her. The left is a bunch of frauds. “Rose Sent Us” is a huge far left idiot fraud.
Rose Sent Us = RUTH Sent us. Even I am not impressed by Ginsberg. I got her first name wrong. She was a napping fool.
The freakiest protestors are the ones who dress in costumes from The Handmaid’s Tale. I would not want those freaks outside my house.

Another home run for Greenburg!

A guy I know from another political forum was at the Marriott Crystal City the day of the RvW leak. That night, a couple busloads of protestors showed up, were being directed by handlers, given rooms, given info packets. They were clearly being setup for the protests the next day.
This sort of thing doesn’t happen in a few hours. The RvW leak and protests was a thoroughly planned political event.

Great commentary on that here:

Link only due to language.
And I completely agree with you.
in the movie 2000 Mules, they have identified some of the Mules as also being protestors from all around the country’s violent protests...
just sayin’..
Only a limited number of crazy Commies exist. They must be recycled. That is why the same groups change names so often, to appear more numerous than they are. The total number is probably in the five figures. That is also why they are required to convert the young them and import them from third world nations. Normal liberals have no idea in what they are dabbling, and when they do, it will be too late. This has happened in every Communist takeover. I wish more people would learn from the plight of Cuba and Venezuela. foe example https://qcostarica.com/how-venezuela-became-a-communist-totalitarian-state/

We see this activity too often and too well organized for it to be spontaneous.
It's a safe bet that the democrats and the money-men financing the leftist street warriors have groups and teams all set up and ready to go at a moments notice.
Sort of a Ready Reaction Force staffed with everything from people printing and distributing signs to cadres of "Street Captains" to herd the foot soldiers,
pre-arranged transportation, and where necessary, arrangements for feeding, lodging and paying street activists and rioters.
If we had an honest FBI they could identify the paymasters and street warriors easily.
You know they are using easily traceable cell phones and the internet to communicate and rally their protesters and rioters.
But if anything the FBI is covering up the organizing and logistics and actually participating in some of the protesting and rioting at the street level.
