After GOP pressure, FBI abortion “terrorism” investigations increased tenfold, government data shows.

    Every word uttered by a conservative is deception or manipulation. Every single word. Anyone who protests against their oppression is labelled a “terrorist” while nearly every act of domestic terror ever committed in U.S. history has been by conservatives.

    Never, ever trust a conservative. Never.

    They do nothing when kids are killed in mass shootings. They block or repeal regulations meant to prevent irreparable damage to the environment. They gerrymander the shit out of districts to make sure elections go their way, and lie about the results if they lose anyway. They’d rather see women die than let them terminate a non viable pregnancy. They try to criminalize trans people while allowing billionaires to screw over everybody un-checked. They claim to love Jesus while treating migrant children like inhuman pests.

    If there are threats against them, they are more than well deserved. They brought it on themselves.

    If you’re pre-born, you’re fine, if you’re pre-schooled, you’re fucked. Conservatives want live babies so they can raise them to be dead soldiers. Pro-life, these people aren’t pro-life, they’re killing doctors, what kind of pro-life is that? What, they’ll do everything they can do save a fetus, but if it grows up to be a doctor they just might have to kill it?

      Have you noticed that most of the women who are against abortion are women you wouldn’t want to fuck in the first place, man? There’s such balance in nature.

    It’s neat how when people talk about January 6, there’s no such thing as domestic terrorism in our laws. How it’s an unfortunate blind spot and why we have to give the insurrectionists lenient sentences. There’s Nothing We Can Do.

    Abortion? Well, that’s different. Domestic terrorists, duh. Open and shut.

    The salient comparison is how abortion activists are being treated, as if they are all potential mass shooters. Yet mass shooting prevention gets almost no prevention support beyond shooter drills and the yellow survival buckets in classrooms

    I’m confused here, this isn’t the FBI going after activist…this is the FBI looking into groups firebombing anti-abortion places. This article is bullshit and I hope this place doesn’t become/r/politics, this post should be really removed as it’s not the GOP pushing for this…hell it’s bidens FBI right now, the GOP doesn’t have much pressure they can put on them otherwise they’d have pulled the plug on the trump investigations.

    Seriously read the bullshit clickbait article before you comment people.

      turns out the GOP is pushing for it. from the article… “As vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee and then-ranking member of the Judiciary Committee, respectively, both of which oversee the FBI, Rubio and Grassley were both in a position to influence bureau leadership, and it appears the bureau listened.”

        I mean no they didn’t, the writer just comes to that conclusion even after the data and their own reference expert says nothing to the effect.

        While the report doesn’t say how many of these incidents were motivated by support for reproductive rights and how many were anti-abortion

        “only after the outcry from the pro-life community did the FBI announce an investigation” into Jane’s Revenge — a small group of activists that firebombed an anti-abortion pregnancy center on June 7, 2021 — and that the attorney general “has yet to launch a wider DOJ investigation.”

        Again, the report does not specify what proportion of the cases are motivated by support for reproductive rights or anti-abortion views.

        Yea you keep telling everyone that, because it sounds like you don’t have a ton of solid evidence, of which you contradict your own source.

        “I think there has been a big push in right-wing media to drum up a fear of pro-choice violence, like they did with ‘Antifa,’” German said. “Agents are probably influenced by it.”

        So did Rubio influence it or the right wing media…I mean he’s the expert they’re using for their info and then coming to a different conclusion.

        The FBI’s abortion-related terrorism investigations jumped from three cases in the fiscal year 2021 to 28 in 2022

        Yes all this info and the writer comes up with 2 republicans who one of which sits on the Senate Intel committee…the other on the judiciary committee…what they don’t want to tell you is that Warner a Democrat holds the chair, and that the republicans on that committee are not driving the agenda…again it’s bidens FBI… what’s more interesting is that the uptick is from 3 to 28 cases…not 50-100 to 1k…no 3 to 28…take it however you want, but this article is bullshit scare tactics designed to stroke egos of prochoice Dems. (I’m prochoice btw)

    america is becoming more dystopian every day, glad I don’t live there

    I vote to section them off from the rest of the world allowing those who want to leave america to leave and keep america sectioned off until they can improve and intervening if they become a threat to other countries
