House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) launched an investigation into directions given to U.S. marshals to not arrest protesters outside Supreme Court justices homes after a draft decision overturning federal abortion protections was leaked.
He pointed to a federal law that prohibits demonstrations that intend to interfere with or influence judges.
The probe comes a year after the bombshell leak of a Supreme Court draft opinion in Dobbs vs. Jackson Womens Health that overturned Roe v. Wade, which sparked protests outside the homes of conservative justices.
In a letter requesting information from U.S. Marshals Service Director Ronald L. Davis, Jordan referred to training materials that directed marshals to not arrest those demonstrating outside justices homes.
The training materials provided to the U.S. Marshals strongly suggest that the Biden Administration is continuing to weaponize federal law enforcement agencies for partisan purposes, Jordan wrote in the letter, first shared with The Hill.

them up in cages and making them sleep on cement floors? That kind of weaponizing?
