The government is preparing for violence if Roe is overturned, per a leaked memo

In the next month, the Supreme Court will issue a decision on Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization that’s expected to overturn Roe v. Wade. On both sides of the issue, people are preparing to react whenever the Court’s decision drops. But we’re not the only ones getting ready. A leaked memo shows that the Department of Homeland Security is getting ready for violence following the Court’s abortion ruling.

On Wednesday, Axios released details of a May 13 memo it obtained from DHS. The outlet reported that within it, DHS’s intelligence arm warned the threats that came following the leak of Justice Samuel Alito’s majority draft opinion “are likely to persist and may increase leading up to and following the issuing of the Court’s official ruling.”
