ShutDownDC, a self-described anti-fascist group, is offering bounties for tips on sightings of conservative Supreme Court Justices.
Former FBI Assistant Director of Intelligence, Kevin Brock, said this should be “interpreted as a threat” and that it’s “a danger to America” if the Justice Department treats threats of violence from the left more lightly than ones from the right.
On Friday, ShutDownDC tweeted out that they would pay up to $250 to service industry workers in Washington D.C. if they updated them to sightings of SCOTUS justices that were pro-life.
“DC Service Industry Workers… If you see Kavanaugh, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Coney Barrett or Roberts DM us with the details!” ShutDownDC tweeted. “We’ll venmo you $50 for a confirmed sighting and $200 if they’re still there 30 mins after your message.”
Just The News reported:
Tucker Carlson mentioned the group’s tweet during his Fox News TV show on Friday, telling his viewers to “flood them with reported sightings until they give up.”
While ShutDownDC said they received many false sightings following Carlson’s show, they also got an increase in donations.
The Antifa group’s tweet came after protesters disrupted Associate Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s dinner at a Washington, D.C., steak house last Wednesday, following ShutDownDC tweeting that someone had sent them a tip that he was there.
“DM us if you want to join him…we’re sure he can pull up a seat!” the group tweeted.
During Carlson’s segment, he said the “DOJ has done nothing,” despite ShutDownDC’s posted offer.
“The threat environment related to the Dobbs decision is crackling right now,” Brock, the former FBI intel chief, told Just the News on Tuesday.
“The overriding concern is that the DOJ is not responding to threats of violence emanating from the left side of the political spectrum as diligently as they are when they emanate from the right side of the political spectrum,” Brock warned. “That is a danger to America.”
After the monumental decision on June 24th, and even before, with the leaking of the draft opinion, the lives of the SCOTUS justices have been in danger.
The Raging Patriot previously reported on a murder attempt on Justice Kavanaugh:
Nicholas John Roske of Simi Valley, California, was carrying a gun, ammunition, a knife, pepper spray, a screwdriver, zip ties, and other gear when he was arrested by Montgomery County Police Department officers Wednesday morning near Kavanaugh’s Maryland home, according to a criminal complaint.
The Department of Justice charged Roske with attempting or threatening to kidnap or murder a U.S. judge.
Roske later told police he was upset by a leaked draft opinion suggesting the Supreme Court is about to overrule Roe v. Wade, the 1973 landmark abortion case. He also said he was upset over the school massacre in Uvalde, Texas, and believed Kavanaugh would vote to loosen gun control laws, the affidavit said.
