- Pay attention. Trump effectively green-lit violence against abortion clinics and patients. Now, extremists say they’re “going to disrupt this country” as much as they can. 🧵👇
- MS Now reports that anti-abortion extremists have been emboldened by the DOJ’s decision to limit enforcement of a 1994 law meant to protect reproductive health clinics from violence. www.jezebel.com/anti-abortio...
- Last year, Trump pardoned 23 people convicted of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE Act). Many of the pardoned were in prison for physically blocking patients from accessing their doctors. Some also broke into clinics, stole fetal tissues, or accosted pregnant people.
- These get-out-of-jail-free cards only invite anti-abortion extremists to step up their attacks on reproductive health clinics with impunity—just look at what they are saying to national media outlets.Feb 5, 2026 20:05
- Meanwhile, the Department of Justice has asserted it will not prioritize investigations into incidents of violence against abortion clinics, staff, or patients. Instead, it is using the FACE Act to criminalize anti-immigration enforcement protesters.
- The bottom line is this: Extremists are on the loose. Clinics are under threat. And a federal law that was created to protect them has been repurposed to do anything but.
- That’s why we’re suing the administration—to understand why these criminals were pardoned and why this law isn’t being enforced to protect clinics. Read more about our lawsuit below, then drop a 💗 in the replies to show your support for clinics and their staff.
