The Department of Justice (DOJ), an institution once dedicated to ensuring law and order in the United States, looks to have become another pawn for the leftist elite. From categorizing upset Virginia parents as domestic terrorists to going after average Trump supporters, the DOJ continues to subvert the values it’s supposed to protect.
Attorney General Merrick Garland released a statement on June 24 about the Supreme Court decision on the Dobbs case communicating his disdain for the ruling.
The DOJ was very upset at the fact women cannot murder children by citing leftist platitudes about abortion.
“The Justice Department strongly disagrees with the Court’s decision. This decision deals a devastating blow to reproductive freedom in the United States,” the statement read. “It will have an immediate and irreversible impact on the lives of people across the country. And it will be greatly disproportionate in its effect – with the greatest burdens felt by people of color and those of limited financial means.”
Instead of ensuring justice for all U.S. citizens, the DOJ would rather play politics. You would think a department dedicated to justice would adequately understand the Constitution.
The DOJ then proudly states it will continue to protect and advance reproductive “freedom” and encourages federal agencies to continue to provide abortion.
“Furthermore, federal agencies may continue to provide reproductive health services to the extent authorized by federal law,” the statement follows. “And federal employees who carry out their duties by providing such services must be allowed to do so free from the threat of liability.”
The woke bureaucrats in the DOJ want the department’s main priority to be ensuring that federal workers can spend more time slaving away instead of potentially having a family. Ironic that the department that has titled itself the Justice department will provide funding so the greatest injustice can be carried out.
The DOJ ends its statement with a commitment to protecting the ‘totally’ fundamental American value of abortion!
The statement concludes:
The ability to decide one’s own future is a fundamental American value, and few decisions are more significant and personal than the choice of whether and when to have children. Few rights are more central to individual freedom than the right to control one’s own body. The Justice Department will use every tool at our disposal to protect reproductive freedom. And we will not waver from this Department’s founding responsibility to protect the civil rights of all Americans.
So murdering babies is a fundamental right, but protesting against leftism isn’t? Where’s the justice in that?
