Kommandant Garland is at it again. His FBI Gestapo has snagged another victim.
Mark Houck, a well-known anti-abortion activist, was arrested in Bucks County, PA for allegedly violating Biden’s FACE Act (the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act). The warrant specified “ATTACK OF A PATIENT ESCORT.”
The details are in some dispute. Houck’s wife described it this way:
Ryan-Marie, who is a homeschooling mother, described how the SWAT team of 25 to 30 FBI agents swarmed their property with around 15 vehicles at 7:05 a.m. this morning. Having quickly surrounded the house with rifles in firing position, “they started pounding on the door and yelling for us to open it.”
Before opening the door, she explained, her husband tried to calm them, saying, “‘Please, I’m going to open the door, but, please, my children are in the home. I have seven babies in the house.’ But they just kept pounding and screaming,” she said.
When he opened the door, “they had big, huge rifles pointed at Mark and pointed at me and kind of pointed throughout the house,” Ryan-Marie described.
When they came in, they ordered the kids to stay upstairs. “Our staircase is open, so [the kids] were all at the top of the stairs which faces the front door, and I was on the stairs as well, coming down.”
“The kids were all just screaming. It was all just very scary and traumatic,” she explained.
The FBI denies it was a SWAT raid
“There are inaccurate claims being made regarding the arrest of Mark Houck. No SWAT Team or SWAT operators were involved. FBI agents knocked on Mr. Houck’s front door, identified themselves as FBI agents and asked him to exit the residence. He did so and was taken into custody without incident pursuant to an indictment,” the FBI said.
But they don’t deny all of her account:
The FBI did not deny that up to 25-30 armored agents were on the scene or that Houck’s children witnessed the agents pointing rifles at their father and mother to arrest him for allegedly shoving someone in front of an abortion clinic.
Or that the children were screaming and crying. 25 f**king agents for a man with zero history of violence. Now for the good part.
The local LEO’s did not press the case, nor did the local DA. Why, you might ask. This is why
On several occasions when Mark went to sidewalk counsel last year, he took his eldest son, who was only 12 at the time, she explained. For “weeks and weeks,” a “pro-abortion protester” would speak to the boy saying “crude … inappropriate and disgusting things,” such as “you’re dad’s a fag,” and other statements that were too vulgar for her to convey.
Repeatedly, Mark would tell this pro-abortion man that he did not have permission to speak to his son and please refrain from doing so. And “he kept doing it and kind of came into [the son’s] personal space” obscenely ridiculing his father. At this point, “Mark shoved him away from his child, and the guy fell back.”
“He didn’t have any injuries or anything, but he tried to sue Mark,” and the case was thrown out of court in the early summer.
The above occurred in 2021, over a year ago. Bringing a federal case for something the local authorities dismissed is a terrible abuse of power. But none of that matters to Kommandant Garland. Garland’s Gestapo is determined to crush and intimidate anyone who dares interfere with the killing of babies. Pro-lifers are being made an example of what you have to fear from this a**hole administration. And it’s all one sided.
Since the Biden administration has taken power in January 2021, Garland’s Department of Justice and the FBI have committed dozens of SWAT team raids that have been characterized as a political “weaponization” of the federal agencies against pro-lifers, Trump supporters, conservative Christians, and medical freedom advocates.
For example, in contrast to left-wing rioters who caused enormous damage in cities across the nation in 2020, and the vandals who have attacked dozens of pro-life centers this year with little or no legal ramifications, the Department of Justice implemented the harshest of consequences for those they identified as having anything to do with the disturbance at the Capitol on January 6, 2021. These actions have included early morning SWAT team arrests, ransacked homes, confiscation of property, indefinite pre-trial solitary confinement without bail in a dedicated D.C. prison, significant physical abuse, and the violation of the Constitutional right to a speedy trial.
In March, the FBI rounded up 10 pro-life activists, including Joan Andrews Bell, with SWAT team raids that serve to intimidate and humiliate the accused through an exercise of excessive force.
A surfaced video of one of these raids shows armed agents holding pro-lifers at gunpoint and ordering them to put their hands up, drop to their knees and scoot backward out their front door in the middle of the night. The pro-lifers are respectful and compliant throughout.
After the FBI’s unprecedented August 8 raid on President Donald Trump’s Mar-A-Lago home, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis called it “another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents.”
Soon after Joe Biden’s September 1 speech where he declared war on conservative Christians, dozens of Trump allies had their homes raided by the FBI, which Steve Bannon referred to as “a Gestapo tactic,” and said it was “all about intimidation.”
There have been over 100 attacks on pro-life organizations. Jane’s Revenge claims responsibility for 18 arson and vandalism attacks since May 2.
Not one arrest. No SWAT, no 30 armed Gestapo agents. Nothing. It’s almost as if there is a two-tiered justice system in this country.
I have a hard time believing the case against Houck is going anywhere and I suspect Kommandant Garland knows it. This is about intimidation. It’s a message.
The message is that we’re living in a fascist state and don’t you dare try to resist. Someone innocent is going to get killed. Oh, wait, that already happened. I really don’t wish ill on people but I am having a very hard time fighting the urge to do so. This is unamerican. It’s unconstitutional.
It’s wrong.
See author page
Since there are disputed accounts of what happened, both in the altercation and the arrest, I’ll withhold comment on that. But isn’t it a pathetic state of affairs when someone can make such an accusation against the FBI and have it even considered credible? I would guess that, more than likely, it happened as the wife described it.
Pretty convenient, since the wife has a valid marital privilege and can’t be required to testify under oath. Without that, her statements mean nothing outside of covering for her hubby.
You have some kind of proof or is this just more bullshit off the top of your head? The events support her account and the FBI has destroyed its own credibility, so it’s best to wait for more details.
He doesn’t need proof of anything. He’s not making any claims about the issue aside from summarizing the law in that regard.
You need some specifics. I don’t know who you are talking about.
If you can translate kitt’s written comment, please do so.
Your comment was to me, kitt has nothing to do with it.
Have the courage of your convictions.
Have the courage to answer the questions.
So you think living in a police state and having your husband hauled off by the GESTAPO-like FBI for a civil issue that wasn’t even charged is “lucky”? Well, that’s the mentality of the hateful, fascist left today. Hate for the nation, hate for the Constitution, hate for due process and hate for their fellow Americans.
Hitler also prefered his victims to be Unarmed and so disarmed them(Jews)before he sent t hem to Concentration Camps and the as they say the Rest is History
Hitler liked to give speeches. Trump also likes to give speeches. You do the math.
Hitler breathed air. Trump breaths air
You’re a fucking moron.
“You’re a fucking moron.”
So Christian of you!
“So Christian of you!”
Very much so. Funny how Atheists hate Christianity…until they lecture you on how to practice it.
Like I said…
You’re a fucking moron. And you’re “Christian”.
Are you going to transfer from the Bureau to the IRS? Lots of positions to fill…lots of Christians to “audit.”
It’s funny how “Christians” talk up Christianity — right up to the moment they should start acting like one. Then it’s all “You’re a fucking moron!”
How exactly should a Christian act? How would you even know? What does Christianity say about “how to act?”
Funny how Atheists don’t follow any “god” or “worship”, but suddenly want to tell you how to act.
Again, how is a Christian “supposed” to act, and how does that differ from how an Atheist is supposed to act?
You’re a fucking moron. You’re literally a goon without a brain who is pushing diaper-shit ideology straight from hell, ideologies that will kill billions.
Glad to offend your sensibilities of “how a Christian should act.”
You don’t have a clue, but those of us who do won’t let you destroy the world with your hate.
Oh, and the hackneyed Atheist tactic of “tell the Christians they aren’t being nice, and think that negates their point” isn’t going to work anymore.
Italy is yet another Christian, Western society pulling back from the brink.
You (spittle flying out of your mouth): YOU’RE A CHRISTIAN! YOU KNOW YOU’RE A CHRISTIAN! EVERYTHING YOU DO AND THINK IS FORMED BY THE CHRISTIANITY THAT SURROUNDS YOU IN THIS, THE MOST CHRISTIAN OF COUNTRIES!!!
Also you: How exactly should a Christian act? How would you even know?
One of the tenets of Christianity is telling the truth.
I hope that Christianity isn’t charging the truth too much for rent.
There. Better? Now you may go and answer some of the questions.
Well, Christianity isn’t inventing non-science to let creepy men put on women’s clothes and molest people with impunity.
I’m afraid the bill for that little bit of societal destruction is coming due in November, already being paid up in places like Italy and Sweden.
I believe in nation with the freedom for people to believe whatever they want, rather than letting one religion, Atheism, simply ban all other forms of faith while pretending it’s not one itself.
Those days are over, my friend. Open your mind and stop telling me what to believe.
So, you just prove yourself not a Christian by lying.
You judged. I explained.
“He gave Marlow a brain, but he does not think.”
You are the liar and idiot posting herein.
You have no thoughts. You are programmed.
Hitler was a Vegan and Gun Control Advocate in other words Hitler was a Liberal
Your a idiot
Obama REALLY liked to give speeches. And spy on citizens. And promote violence and racism.
Thoughts?
My thought is that you’re so obtuse you couldn’t figure out that I was making fun of the endless “You know who was like Hitler?” comments people like Spurwing Plover and TrumpWon are always making.
Comparing political rivals to Hitler is overwhelmingly done by Democrats/Leftists.
It’s fact (initiate your meltdown).
Isn’t it kind of pathetic that leftist hyperbole is so ridiculous that it cannot be differentiated from sarcasm? Kind of like sometimes it is difficult to tell a Babylon Bee headline from factual news. No, when you spout such ridiculous idiocy, I cannot tell that you are trying to be funny and poke fun at your own behavior. Maybe you should clarify that as well.
I would be surprised if they haven’t. I’m a half-bred fabric? How does that make sense? You must be pretty stupid.
Muslin is a fabric. No one called Obama a fabric, like no one has ever called you honest, credible or intelligent.
I don’t reckon that’s any of your business, shitbird.
You remind me of what I flush in the morning after coffee.
Even wonder what a “patient escort,” is?
When a pregnant girl is so young she can’t drive yet, or has kept her pregnancy secret from her own parents, the abortionists supply her with a “patient escort.”
I guess this particular patient escort thought he ought to block his girl from being confronted by someone who might be able to reach her conscience, while she still has one.
It’s dangerous to work at a pregnancy crisis center. Left wing fascists tend to burn them down.
But they’ve burned down quite a few, fascist. Abortion is assassination, dumbass. And an idiot Biden supporter assassinated an innocent young man because he thought he was a Republican, driven by idiot Biden’s speech calling Republicans “threats” and “enemies”. No doubt, you possess the same kind of stupid mind that is affected by such hate-inciting speech.
I guess you are under the mistaken impression that I place some kind of priority to responding to your idiotic bullshit. The fact is, the attacks on the 30 or so pregnancy crisis centers, with “Jane’s Revenge” taking responsibility, has been covered extensively on the non-leftist propaganda networks. You are apparently someone that likes to maintain that blissful stupidity, so why don’t you just seek that information out yourself, if you dare. Just google “attacks on pregnancy crisis centers”.
It’s no abuse of power for federal agencies to take action when local and state agencies allow illegal conduct. That’s why it became the federal government’s duty to stomp out the KKK, just as it’s the federal government’s duty to stomp out MAGA. They’re the same thing.
When did the federal government “stomp out” the KKK? In it’s heyday, when Democrats were in power, they WERE the federal government.
It’s the federal government’s job to eradicate ANTIFA, but they, on orders from the DNC, ignore the one true political terror group in widespread operation in the US today. MAGA, which is a PHRASE, commits no violence, poses no threat, aside from a threat to the corruption and fascism of the Democrat party.
“MAGA, which is a PHRASE, commits no violence, poses no threat, aside from a threat to the corruption and fascism of the Democrat party.”
Okay. I”ll play. “Antifa” just stands for “antifascist.” Certainly you’re not PRO-FASCIST, are you?!
No, but ANTIFA is. They are violent and fascist and get a pass from Democrats.
“I’ll play.”
But you can’t make a point. Only silly deflections.
The Left is violent.
The Right is not.
It’s provable fact.
Every piece of horseshit is “provable fact” to you.
There are thousands of hours of Left/antifa/BLM video, attacks on everythinig from state, federal, and local governments to pouring paint on old ladies.
The most recent is the physical threats to the SC for doing their jobs.
There are NO such attacks coming from the Right. None.
it was important to stage J6th to give an illogical foil against this fact.
The Left is violent.
The Right is not.
It is, quite empirically, a fact.
That’s why you have nothing to say and can only throw a tantrum.
Here, I’ll give you something to latch on to so you do your usual “avoid the topic at hand” tactic:
“Cope more.”
It’s like I have you on a string, boy.
Nah. They fought Nazi germany.
There are no “anti-fascists”. Just Fascists. Antifa being the latest incarnation of the “SA.”
They’re the same thing.
You wish You’re the KKK – Democrats.
MAGA are the new Jews.
Our Federal government is illegitimate, and needs to be dissolved.
Meh. The Fed is the weakest level of government we have for a reason…and by design.
Florida, and my own state, are doing just fine by remembering that part of our Republic.
This is Biden’s America now. It’s not MAGA that’s ransacking stores from one city to the next. It’s not MAGA building tent cities with drugs and crime as the main feature. It’s Biden’s America seeing record inflation, record stock market losses and record fentanyl deaths. Did you vote for this? I didn’t. We were told Biden got 81 million votes. More than anyone in history. Now 2 years later even his own party does not want him to run again. Go shopping today, buy a clue.

You forgot to show when the federal government “stomped out” the KKK.

If he didn’t, I wonder if he will learn a lesson about making stupid, hollow threats?
Naaaaaah.
I live in a Blue State…in a Blue Area.
I’ve seen stands selling “Trump 2024” and “Let’s Go Brandon” flags for months.
I can hear Leftists saying Trump is a cult or Hitler or something, conveniently blocking out how our nation was canvassed by Soviet-style Obama propaganda stickers and posters for 8 years.
Biden, well his masters, HAVE to go full authoritarian. They are not popular, and without the media machine to dupe their dwindling base, no one in their right mind would vote for them.
MAGA – Low taxes, border security, low drug prices, leveraged debt, low crime, low unemployment, and peace in the world.
Biden’s regime – High Taxes, open border, high prices for everything, printing money and running up our debt, high crime, racial division, promoting pedophilia in schools, forced retirement, and war all over the globe.
The choice is clear. Get these idiots out of our government.
You forgot ignoring the Chinese manufactured fentanyl being brought into our country by Mexican cartels that neither Biden or (the crooked government of) Mexico is doing anything about. But hey, Biden can’t afford to rock the boat with China because Fang Fang #2 has dirt on Little Boy Hunter.
I missed a lot of things.
There’s just too many failures in the Biden regime to even count.
I think your algorithm needs some work, son.

Where is your proof of any “malpractice”? Or, are you just scratching that “liar” itch?
So… silence. Just a coward lying and trolling.
Who turned on the bot?
Talk about admitting defeat.
Preach on, “phillip.”
You got nothing.
PM is a bot spouting gibberish. Don’t feed it. It will go away.

Phillip. You’re a f*cking pig.
” sudden doxing of the FA writers”
No doxxing has taken place that I have seen.
And you see all?
You know the totalitarian Left is in full meltdown if they mobilized greg, michael, skipping, AND phillip for this one.
They can’t WAIT to try to put us in railcars, it seems.
Delusions of grandeur and acute paranoia.
Lack of any cogent point, falling back on the standard toddler response of “shut up.”
The only paranoia I’ve seen is your bigotry towards Christianity, and your tactic approval of a implied genocide, either ideologically or physically…or both.
You officially lose any credibility, and argument, when you crumble mentally and have to call the other person “crazy.”
You have nothing.
If you don’t want to be seen as crazy, don’t post crazy stuff on the Internet. Decrazify yourself. You can start by giving a realistic explanation of who here wants to subject Christians to a genocide and why that threat should be taken seriously.
Remember: there are more Christians on planet Earth than any other religious group.
I’ve deconstructed your own comments, and the utter lack of originality in them.
You follow the patterns and the mass hysteria that we’ve seen throughout history. Moa and Stalin both distrupted food production just like we see with the globalists and their installed puppets, for example. There are patterns and I’m aware that most other people don’t see them or ignore them.
The issues that are going on in America and the West are largely due to a hateful, atheist religion trying to build its own culture and squash all others. They’ve been falsely propagandized into believing “religion” has caused all the problems of humanity. It’s dumb, it’s not insightful, and it lacks any empirical analysis… but you fools just follow along like lemmings off the cliff.
Of course you don’t believe it. You’re the one under its spell. You’re the lemming, and you definitely believe in what you’re doing just like a good German or Soviet citizen would while they’re exterminating others.
And no one sees me as crazy. That’s just the usual confession of defeat from leftist trolls such as yourself.
The agenda you posit is emotional and completely relativistic. You can’t make arguments, and you resort to toddler level word-parsing.
Almost every advance and moral advantage that you enjoy from the society you live in was provided by a Christian understanding of the world.
You hate that.
Yes, we are in real danger of demonic secular atheists like you waging a pogrom against “the religious”, which really just means Christians. For some reason the left coddles and worships Islam, which is the very image of the evil religionists that they claim to hate.
That tells me a lot.
It would be instructive if you could point to a credible atheist who has promoted the idea of committing genocide against Christians. I’m not talking about some nut in his mom’s basement, because you surely would not be worried about someone like that.
We are at the possible starting point. It begins, as it did in Soviet Russia, Nazi Germany, communist China, etc. with police state tactics, imprisoning people for thought. It begins with viewing thought and speech as an “existential threat”. It proceeds to the prisons, tortures and executions.
Outrageous? How about declaring those who see the obvious and overt examples of election fraud as an indication of a possibility stolen election as “existential threats” (even though those accusers have made the same accusations) and inciting violence against them? How is that different?
We are at that point and you are on the side of the totalitarians.
Who told you that’s a prerequisite for genocide? That’s not how it works, and your premise is dismissed.
People like you don’t boldly come out and say what you REALLY want. You hint at it and don’t really know you said the secret part out loud. You just kind of move when the heard moves, beating your Jewish neighbor at first, then turning a blind eye when the SS/FBI starts to load the rest of us into railcars.
Turn back now.
You live in a man-as-god-world where you don’t believe something unless it was printed on a carefully curated Google page, scrubbed of anything that doesn’t fit the ideological narrative you subscribe too. i.e,, your religion.
That’s hardly truth.
To sum up, then, this coming genocide of Christians is something that you have constructed entirely inside your head, and it appears to be controlling a significant part of your life.
You’re right: perfectly sane. I see it now.
Good. I’m not giving up you, buddy. You have the potential to have that intellect you currently don’t, but believe you do.
That sums up the Leftist/Democrat platform rather well.
The patterns are clear, and historical. The Atheist Left wants to kill off Christians.
As they have for centuries.
Try telling me why I’m wrong next time, rather than saying “you’re crazy.” That means you agree.
A genocide of gays and atheists is nothing that I’ve constructed either in my head or otherwise, so your gotcha falls flat—at least as directed at me personally.
As a Lefty atheist, what I want is for Christians to simply leave me the hell alone. You live your life, and I’ll live mine. I’ve spoken to atheists who have contempt for Christians, but I’ve never encountered one who wanted to kill them all.
The Jack-booted Gestapo/FBI will need to be defunded and reconstituted after a “Church” style commission is conducted. This is the consequence of the obama/holder justice department of 2008 through 2015
And with Antifa as their own SS Goons
