The gathering of about 100 demonstrat… DeMocrAcY!!! So dumb! You can tell these protestors know nothing about the Constitution. It was never SCOTUS's job to uphold bad law so Congress didn't have to do theirs. It's Congress's job to codify it. Protest in front of Congress. Not the Supreme Court! Does the supreme court justices know overturning ROE will also piss-off a large portion of non-religious right wingnuts (with guns), who already have a hate on for Washington?

White House warns against 'violence, threats, or vandalism' after protests outside Supreme Court justices homesThe White House on Monday condemned 'violence, threats, or vandalism' after protesters held demonstrations outside the homes of conservative Supreme Court Justices over the weekend. Was there violence, threats, or vandalism? Protesters didn’t commit any violence, vandalism or threats. The WhiteHouse needs to get its head out of its ass and speak up for those fighting for Roe. POTUS and his staff certainly aren’t doing anything. Almost like January 6th. Not.

Cruz: Biden is 'threatening the lives of these justices'Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) accused President Joe Biden of unleashing an angry 'mob' by refusing to condemn people protesting outside the homes of Supreme Court justices. THE FAR LEFT (10%) is in CONTROL but losing it's GRIP as AMERICANS & LEGAL RESIDENTS are now seeing the LIGHT that those CREEPS are trying to DESTROY AMERICA'S MORALITY. Biden is Obama in white face. He is BLM/Antifa personified. No Leftist protest is a problem for him.
