Ron DeSantis Slams Democrats for Ignoring Supreme Court Threats: This is an “Insurrection”

Governor Ron DeSantis is not happy that Democrats and the liberal media are virtually ignoring an assassination attempt on Justice Brett Kavanaugh and pro-abortion threats against the Supreme Court.

There have been 59 cases of pro-abortion violence since the Dobbs leak — including attempted murder, firebombings, and vandalism. DeSantis says those attacks — along with the radical protests at justices homes, doxxing of the justices and their children, and attempts to literally block access to the Supreme Court building are all an “insurrection.”

“I think that we have a rule of law in this country, and you don’t get to just have a mob descend on Supreme Court justice’s house or try to impede the operations of government because there may be a decision you don’t like,” DeSantis said on “Fox & Friends” on Monday. “That would be considered an insurrection to stop a court from functioning, and yet they seem to be able to get away with a lot more than if the shoe were on the other foot.”

“You had someone travel from… halfway around the country to come and murder Justice Kavanaugh,” DeSantis said. “And that was like not even significant news in a lot of the mainstream media.”

“They’re trying to change the outcome of decisions that they are concerned that they don’t like, and that is just totally antithetical to the rule of law,” he continued.

Meanwhile, radical abortion activists who firebombed the office of a pro-life groups in Wisconsin and Oregon, firebombed a pregnancy center in Buffalo, New York, and who have vandalized over a dozen churches and pregnancy centers have struck again.

Now, not even a week after abortion supporters firebombed the Buffalo pregnancy center, another pregnancy center in Gresham, Oregon has been set ablaze.

The Gresham Pregnancy Resource Center was set on fire Saturday morning, according to officials with the pregnancy center. From initial investigations by Police and Fire authorities, it appears an incendiary device was thrown through a window.

“Our alarm system immediately alerted Fire and Police, and they arrived very quickly and extinguished the fire. It was mostly contained to one room, but damage there was extensive and there is additional water and smoke damage in other parts of the building. Nobody was hurt,” Luke Cirillo, CEO, said in a statement.

The Seattle field division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) said it is investigating the arson. Graffiti on the building left by the arsonists refers to abortion activists who have struck elsewhere around the country.

Jane’s Revenge has taken responsibility for a firebombing of a pro-life organization in Madison, Wisconsin in May, and it could have been responsible for bombing the offices of Oregon Right to Life during the same month. It has also vandalized and destroyed multiple churches and pregnancy centers.

In Wisconsin, the pro-life group that was the subject of a firebombing is offering a reward to help find and arrest the radical abortion activist who firebombed its office last month.

As LifeNews reported, abortion activists firebombed a pro-life group’s office in Madison, Wisconsin. A leftist radical threw Molotov cocktails into Wisconsin Family Action’s office in the capital city and a picture of the destruction shows the office heavily damaged from the bomb.

The pro-abortion terrorists responsible also vandalized the building and left a threatening message saying “If abortions aren’t safe, then you aren’t either.”

A radical pro-abortion group named Jane’s Revenge eventually said it was responsible and is threatening increasingly violent attacks that extend beyond Wisconsin if its demands are not met, writing, “Wisconsin is the first flashpoint, but we are all over the US, and we will issue no further warnings.”

Now Wisconsin Family Action is offering a $1,500 reward for any information leading to the arrest of the suspect or suspects responsible for the fire. As a local news outlet reports:

Wisconsin Family Action President Julaine Appling stated that days after the arson and vandalism that occurred the morning of May 8, a group called Jane’s Revenge reportedly claimed responsibility for the attack. The Madison Police Department had stated it was aware that a group had claimed responsibility and that it was working with federal investigators to determine if the claim is true. The police department would not confirm, at the time of the claim, if that group was Jane’s Revenge.

Since then, no arrests have been made. Appling stated her agency is offering the award because it has not been given indication of progress in the investigation.

“It’s perplexing that Jane’s Revenge has not only taken credit for the fire bombing of our headquarters, but they have also threatened our personal safety and promised to continue this extreme violence to other pro-life organizations across the nation, and three weeks later not even a single person of interest has been named,” Appling said.

Meanwhile, the local police department continues its investigation.

The Madison Police Department told NBC15 Tuesday that it is continuing to investigate the arson.

“There is no room for hate in Madison, and we are actively working with our federal partners from the FBI and ATF to solve this case,” the department stated. “We understand the desire for an immediate resolution. However, investigations into this type of incident are time-consuming, and involve painstaking analysis of evidence collected, witness interviews conducted, and tips received.”

MPD encouraged anyone with information on this case to call Madison Area Crime Stoppers at 608-266-6014.

The abortion activists responsible have engaged in more violence and vandalism since then. Two more pregnancy resource centers were vandalized this month in Oregon, the latest in dozens of attacks on pro-life organizations and churches. Dozens of attacks on pro-life and Christian groups have occurred since news broke earlier this month about a leaked draft ruling that shows the U.S. Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.

The threat of violence comes as leftists plan to blockade and attempt to shut down the Supreme Court in two weeks as a decision is expected soon on whether the nation”s high court will overturn Roe v. Wade and allow states to protect babies from abortion.

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security released a report last week warning that radical abortion activists plan to burn down or storm the Supreme Court building and murder justices and their law clerks if the court overturns Roe v. Wade. The report indicates these pro-abortion extremists also plan to target churches and other places of worship with violence and vandalism.

Even some prominent pro-abortion groups are using words that hint at possible insurrection and violence. Earlier this month, Rachel O’Leary Carmona, executive director of Women’s March, warned that abortion activists will be “ungovernable” until the government legalizes abortion on demand.

Other pro-abortion groups have been calling for churches to be the target of abortion activists’ outrage. And one group posted the addresses of the Supreme Court justices online to urge people to protest outside their homes.

LifeNews has been keeping track of reports of pro-abortion vandalism, violence, threats and other incidents since the leak. There have been 59 cases of such pro-abortion violence and intimidation, they include:
