A shadowy left wing group that seems to have come out of nowhere fully funded and ready for action has taken on the deservedly fallen banner of the 19th century Know Nothing Party by specifically targeting Catholics for persecution.

FNC: “Pro-abortion activists are targeting Catholic churches for protests on Mother’s Day, with some citing the Roman Catholic faith of multiple justices who reportedly at one point supported the leaked draft opinion striking down Roe v. Wade.

The protests follow days of organizing in front of the Supreme Court building following the leak Monday night – protests that led the Washington, D.C., police to erect a fence ostensibly to protect the building and justices within. Fox News has also learned that there has been a strong police presence at the justices’ homes following the leak.”

“Whether you’re a ‘Catholic for Choice’, ex-Catholic, of other or no faith, recognize that six extremist Catholics set out to overturn Roe,” the pro-abortion group Ruth Sent Us posted on Twitter. The ironic bit? RBG questioned Roe as bad law.

But contrary to what the religious bigots of Ruth Sent Us claim, the justices who voted to overturn Roe were not “six extremist Catholics.” Justices Alito, Clarence Thomas, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett are Catholic. Neil Gorsuch, the potential fifth vote, is Episcopalian. Roberts and Justice Sonia Sotomayor are Catholic, though they reportedly did not vote to kill Roe. Justices Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan are Jewish, while incoming Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is a nondenominational Protestant.”

Another Know Nothing clone, Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights has organized a “week of action” beginning on May 8, Mother’s Day, with “Actions Outside of Churches.”

“This action is called for by a collective of spanish [sic] speaking women’s rights groups + activists across the country, including from Bride’s March, Dominican Women’s Development Center, Ni Una Menus, and Las 17,” according to their schedule. “Several cities will be hosting protests outside of prominent churches in their towns, these can look like a group of people holding signs wearing Handmaids Tale outfits, passing out flyers outside to church goers or doing a die-in.” Political theater at its most distaff Bolshevik.

Brian Burch, president of the Catholic organization Catholic Vote said, “In the wake of the shameless leak of a draft opinion of the Supreme Court, pro-abortion groups are now threatening to disrupt Catholic churches and to protest outside the homes of Supreme Court justices this Sunday,” Burch noted Thursday. “These threats follow a record number of attacks on Catholic churches, shrines, and symbols over the past two years,” the Catholic Vote president added, citing the recent vandalism against churches.

“President Biden must immediately and forcibly condemn these domestic terrorist threats,” Burch declared. “Anti-Catholic zealots are plotting to intimidate and harass Catholics across the country, along with justices and their families. This country was built on freedom of speech and freedom of religion. The President of the United States must stand up for both.” He won’t. Mr. “devout Catholic” will take another pill from Nurse Jill and do what he is told.
