‘Violence has been called for beginning the night such a decision is handed down.’

WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) — The Biden administration’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reportedly notified Catholic bishops of credible threats to churches and members of the clergy if the U.S. Supreme Court opts to eliminate the federal “right to abortion” by overturning Roe v. Wade.

Rod Dreher, senior editor of The American Conservative and author of “The Benedict Option,” wrote in a June 2 tweet that, according to an “informed source,” the DHS had “officially notified the bishops there are credible threats to the safety of Catholic churches, clergy, and bishops if the Supreme Court overturns Roe.”

“Violence has been called for beginning the night such a decision is handed down,” Dreher said.

Dreher’s statement comes after the DHS last month raised the alarm about the likely escalation of violence from pro-abortion extremists, including attacks targeting clergy and places of worship, if the Supreme Court overturns Roe.

In the unclassified memo by the DHS’ intelligence arm released May 13, the agency noted that law enforcement agencies are investigating violent threats as the Supreme Court prepares to hand down its ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which concerns Mississippi’s 15-week abortion ban.

The threats are reportedly “likely to persist and may increase leading up to and following the issuing of the Court’s official ruling.”

How many billions do we pay these idjits to issue alerts? (I know the answer to this) Why are they not out there arresting these cretins instead of playing Captain Obvious? If you go to church (anywhere actually), arm up and be prepared to use it. Homeland Security = Orwellian BS!
