White House Defends Planned Left-Wing Protest at Homes of Supreme Court Justices

The White House on May 5 defended the right of left-wing pro-abortion activists to protest at the homes of six conservative Supreme Court Justices, and avoided characterizing them as โ€œextreme,โ€ with outgoing press secretary Jen Psaki instead calling for โ€œpeaceful protest.โ€

After the leak on Monday of a draft Supreme Court opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 ruling that made abortion legal across the entire United States, protests erupted by progressive pro-abortion activists whom Psaki described as being โ€œoutraged.โ€

Barricades were erected around the Supreme Court and security was beefed up around the Justices.

Further, the left-wing organization Ruth Sent Us posted the supposed addresses of six conservative Justices and called for a โ€œwalk-byโ€ protest on May 11.

โ€œAt the homes of the six extremist justices, three in Virginia and three in Maryland. If youโ€™d like to join or lead a peaceful protest, let us know,โ€ the groupโ€™s website states.

The group also calls for, and offers to pay, muralists and chalk artists to join the protests.

Psaki conveyed President Joe Bidenโ€™s wishes that any protests remained peaceful but stopped short of characterizing them as extreme. This is while Biden on May 4 characterized a spectrum of the GOPโ€”what he called the โ€œMAGA crowdโ€โ€”as the โ€œmost extreme political organizationโ€ in recent American history.

โ€œThe president, for all those women, men, others, who feel outraged, who feel scared, who feel concerned, he hears them. He shares that concern and horror at what he saw in that draft opinion,โ€ she told reporters, noting that it wasnโ€™t a final opinion.

Bidenโ€™s direct message to anybody feeling frustrated by the Supreme Courtโ€™s draft opinion, Psaki said, is to participate in peaceful protest.

โ€œEnsure itโ€™s peaceful. Have your voice heard peacefully. We should not be resorting to violence in any way, shape, or form. Thatโ€™s certainly what he would be conveying,โ€ she said.

Psaki declined to say if Biden also viewed the left-wing activists who are planning protests at the homes of the Justices as โ€œextreme.โ€
