a scale we have not seen in our lifetimes, all of those crimes are being treated as less serious offenses than a man who sang hymns in an abortion clinic. so what s going on here? will ? a day before the fbi s raid on paul von joe biden and kamala harris announced their new policy, which is pro lifers, because they disagree with joe biden. and upset the base, are now terrorists. watch. we believe and i certainly believe that a woman should have the freedom to make decisions about her own body and that her government should not be making those decisions for her today. extremist so-called leaders are attacking the freedom and liberty of millions of women. we re not going to sit by and let republicans throughout the country enact extreme policies to threaten access to basic health care. my message to folks across the country who are worried about what we re seeing is first that we have you back . so you think to yourself,
back at department of justice headquarters assessing that video and saying to yourself, you know what, they need an armed fbi raid, get out the body armor. that s a terror manifesto. apparently, they did conclude that because now joe biden s justice department, the fbi, to its eternal shame, is rounding up everyone associated with paul von s entirely nonviolent christian organizations. take a look at the mug shots from the fbi s investigation into this event in march of 2020 one . it s on your screen right now. they re telling the fbi is telling you bragging about it, that these people are dangerous. and , of course, you know what they know, which is in america twenty , twenty two , whether you re dangerous or not, depends almost entirely on who you voted for. there are people in this country who children. true fact. you are hearing now that they are minor attracted
you re not going to give me your name. you re not going to give me any information. i want to know why your body armor, the watch caps automatic weapons held at the ready, taking off with her husband. why are you taking him? who are you? she asks. but of course they completely ignore her. no, we re not going to answer. we tried when they didn t. they don t have to answer because when your husband is a domestic terrorist, the government doesn t owe you an answer to the most basic questions. so paul von, we now learn is a terrorist. but what do you may be wondering that by this point was the department of justice explained later in the statement, paul vaun opposes abortion and not just in a quiet, personal way. that would be bad enough. but paul vaughn is outspoken about his views on abortion. he still believes being fifty five is a free country with a bill of rights that allows you the freedom to say what you want and even have protests on behalf of
that disagreed with them. politically. peter bergen, thank you for working on this case, for defending paul von. do you think that this is actually going to go to trial? well, tucker, when you ve got a federal prosecutor after you ,we always have to plan for that. paul wasn t even arrested by the local police for trespassing, but those who did who were arrested were leaning on the tradition of dr. martin luther king. he himself was inspired by mahatma gandhi. i mean, this is the great tradition of american civil disobedience. and it s not the sort of thing that you turn into a 10 year felony. paul himself, we believe we have very strong defenses and hope to help to beat these charges at trial. and i hope you do so with a country that rises up on your side, because this is he wasn t even arrested for trespassing at the scene. and over a year later, they send the fbi to his house in front of his children. it s really just beyond. i appreciate both of you coming
your ideas. he believes that was the freedom that built this country. so year and a half ago in march of 2020 one vaun and ten volunteers from a christian pro-life group in tennessee staged a protest at an abortion clinic in mount juliet. now, we don t need to speculate about what happened next, and that s a good thing for paul von. it was broadcast live on facebook by one of the volunteers. that would be seventy three year old chester gallagher. watch this. and hey, guys, we re going to need you guys to disperse outside, okay? this is your last warning. i need everybody to step outside, go to the sidewalk. you re more than welcome to protest, not on the sidewalk. okay, just asking really nicely.
