Wade<\/em> and\u00a0<em>Planned Parenthood v. Casey<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Watters began his commentary by acknowledging his own past as a reporter who occasionally ambushed people on the street to get comments \u2014 but he argued that the protests outside the homes of Supreme Court justices were a different animal entirely.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know what people are gonna say,\u201d Watters said. \u201c\u2018Watters, you went to people\u2019s homes.\u2019 I did. But there\u2019s a difference. I went to elucidate, not to intimidate. There\u2019s one guy with a microphone, shows up, asks a polite question, and then leaves \u2014 is a lot different than having a mob of angry radical activists screaming at the top of their lungs at nighttime while the kids are home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He went on to argue that Democrats had no choice but to make abortion the central issue heading into November\u2019s fast-approaching midterm elections, saying that President Joe Biden and the Democrat-controlled House and Senate had not been able to accomplish anything worth running on.<\/p>\n<p>But then he predicted that because of how important the abortion issue is to the political Left, protesters were likely to get angrier and more violent as time passed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbortion is sacred to the Left. What that means is this is a religious situation. This is a religious war to the Left,\u201d Watters continued. \u201cNothing means more to them than this abortion situation. So, if you think a molotov cocktail or graffiti or surrounding some justice\u2019s home is a big deal, that\u2019s nothing. Wait until the thing drops this summer, it is going to get so much worse.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to staging protests outside the homes of sitting Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and Chief Justice John Roberts, evidence suggests that pro-abortion activists may be responsible for a <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/pro-life-pregnancy-centers-are-under-attack\/\">rash of vandalism<\/a> at pro-life pregnancy centers and pro-life organizations that have occurred in the days since the draft was leaked.<\/p>\n<p>While the White House has said that protesters should remain peaceful, Press Secretary Jen Psaki <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/psaki-says-there-is-no-official-u-s-government-position-on-activists-protesting-outside-scotus-justices-homes\/\">refused to condemn<\/a> pro-abortion activists who circulated maps drawing would-be protesters to justices\u2019 homes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fox News host Jesse Watters predicted Monday that pro-abortion advocates would not stop with raucous protests in private neighborhoods or even with Molotov cocktails, arguing that to those on the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":93,"featured_media":1482187,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1469438","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1469438","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/93"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1469438"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1469438\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1482187"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1469438"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1469438"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1469438"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
