Quote:Pelosi doesn’t have any respect for the proper process of the Supreme Court. Not only shouldn’t you be intimidating the justices, but it isn’t up to the public. You don’t crowdsource Supreme Court decisions. It doesn’t matter, even if the majority thinks it’s right; the Court makes its decisions not on public opinion, but based on the law. Pelosi is violating her oath to uphold the Constitution.
Pelosi even described their actions as “righteous anger” in other remarks. Forget caring about the Constitution or protecting a co-equal branch of government. If they don’t do what she wants, she appears cool with the justices being harassed and intimidated, as well as Catholic churches being vandalized and invaded.
Now, those same folks that the Democrats had loosed in the hopes they would be angry and come out to vote for them in November, are angry and they’re going to come out. But those leftists who were targeting the justices’ homes are now targeting Nancy Pelosi.
Multiple groups–including the group that named themselves “Ruth Sent Us”–said that they would be going to Nancy Pelosi’s San Francisco home on Tuesday evening to demand that she “investigate the corrupt justices” and “save abortion.” Their remarks are full of nutty conspiracy theory defamation, but this is where the left is at now.
From Fox News:
“We will be marching to the front door of [Pelosi’s] Pac Heights mansion to demand: #SaveAbortionNancy #DefendRoe!,” Ruth Sent Us tweeted. [….]
“We have had careless and cowardly representation by [Pelosi],” the group wrote. “The GOP followed a scorched earth strategy with endless Benghazi hearings and ACA repeals, but she passed endless bills that lay on [Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s] desk and refused to hold hearings on TRUMPIAN crimes.”
“When nauseating [Supreme Court Justice Brett] Kavanaugh was nominated in 2018, Dems knew he was a Bush campaign operative who had perjured himself in previous confirmation hearings,” it continued. “He was also a known alcoholic and gambler. Then his serial sexual assaults came to light. He was still seated on SCOTUS.”
“Through Herculean efforts of grassroots volunteers, [Pelosi] was reinstated in 2019,” it added. “She held ZERO hearings into Kavanaugh’s crimes and perjury. Imagine if she had. Would this creep be on the Court, daring to overturn Roe?”
They want her to take out the conservative justices on the basis that they “lied” or committed perjury in their confirmation hearings in what they said about Roe v. Wade. But none of them ever said they would not overturn Roe. The answer they give is that they can’t give an opinion on anything that might come before them. All they said is that they respect and believe in upholding precedent. Of course, if you thought it was wrongly decided, then that would be another question.
But there’s some karma with them going to Pelosi’s house. Can we call it the consequences of the “whirlwind” that the Democrats unleashed? And going to her house isn’t violating the statute against trying to influence a court decision. So, Pelosi must be down with them coming to bother her, right? Since she encourages protest?
The bigger thing here is that while the Democrats may have set this all in motion to help garner votes, indeed it may have the opposite effect — with leftists deciding not to vote for Democrats because they can’t get them what they want.

The malcontents who protest, riot, harass and/or intimidate whenever life doesn't go their way are not reliable political supporters because they are perpetually unhappy and angry and determined to make "someone" pay.
