Houck has been accused of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act, which makes it a federal crime to use force with the intent to injure, intimidate and interfere with anyone because that person produces reproductive health care. He pleaded not guilty to two counts in Philadelphia federal court on Tuesday.
His attorney, Peter Breen, said the case already made its way through the state court process and was thrown out but that the Biden Department of Justice took up the matter nearly a year later as a form of “political prosecution.” Of the estimated 20 FBI agents who came to Houck’s home, Breen said the DOJ is treating the peaceful father of seven children “as if he was a drug lord or a mafia boss.”
His wife was on Fox and according to her there were 20 to 30 FBI agents who came into their home and brandished their weapons in front of their whole family including their children. Regarding the incident that led to this, according to Houck he and one of his children were outside an abortion clinic praying, which led to an altercation involving his child being pushed (I believe) and then Hauck pushing the person back. As you read in the article posted the case was thrown out, nonetheless for some reason the Biden Justice Department decided this warranted their involvement. Maybe they considered people like this to be part of MAGA Republicans?
No big (D)eal, it’s just Democrats using Law Enforcement as a political weapon. Besides, they’re going after conservatives, and we all know they’re the enemy anyway.
As long as the people who’s civil rights are being violated are the icky ones on the other side…no big deal right.
I keep telling this forums genius level lefties…be careful what you wish for you just might get it.
I’m reminded of this…
“ First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
—Martin Niemöller”
Who is Martin?
“ MARTIN NIEMÖLLER: “FIRST THEY CAME FOR…”
Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) was a prominent Lutheran pastor in Germany. In the 1920s and early 1930s, he sympathized with many Nazi ideas and supported radically right-wing political movements. But after Adolf Hitler came to power in 1933, Niemöller became an outspoken critic of Hitler’s interference in the Protestant Church. He spent the last eight years of Nazi rule, from 1937 to 1945, in Nazi prisons and concentration camps. Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for his postwar statement, “First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out…”
Doing some reading about Mark Houck…his case has already been litigated once…
“ His attorney, Peter Breen, said the case already made its way through the state court process and was thrown out but that the Biden Department of Justice took up the matter nearly a year later as a form of “political prosecution.” Of the estimated 20 FBI agents who came to Houck’s home, Breen said the DOJ is treating the peaceful father of seven children “as if he was a drug lord or a mafia boss.”
A year later the Garland DOJ conducts another of its signature raids showing massively excessive force in front of this guys wife and kids.
No…
That is just flat wrong. If Republicans get the House and Senate the first thing they need to do is clean house at the DOJ starting with the corrupt MR Garland…that God that clown never got close to the Supreme Court.
You libs…you better pull your collective heads out if your collective backsides…if they can pull this ■■■■ on us they can do it to you too.
I suspect if DeSantis or Tim Scott or Nikki Haley become the next president we can expect massive outrage…they’ll be portrayed as being as evil as that orange guy
