There are still a number of unanswered questions about the "Ruth Sent Us" group organizing protests at the homes of the "six extremist justices" in response to the leaked draft opinion in Dobbs. /1
The website notes that “stipends [are] available” for protestors. Who exactly is paying for these stipends?
More pointedly, who is funding the threat against Supreme Court justices? /2
The website links to a different organization, "Strike for Choice," which shows connections to groups including Black Lives Matter, Code Pink, Women's March SF, Kavanaugh Off Our Court, and Rise Up 4 Abortion Rights. How exactly are these groups connected? /3
The website asks for “peaceful protests.” Is that like the “mostly peaceful” protests burning down cities across the country during BLM, which appears to be connected with this group?
How many of these other groups have engaged in violence before? /4
During the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings, a rep for the Women's March "confirmed that her group had coordinated a plan to disrupt the hearings. That included offering lodging to traveling protesters and 'jail and bail support' if necessary." /5

The parallels between this planned protest and the disgusting antics we saw from left-wing dark money groups during the Kavanaugh confirmation are striking. /6
Will groups like @WeDemandJustice condemn these protests? So far they have been silent. What about Demand Justice board member @ElieNYC? Or is “Ruth Sent Us” also connected with the Arabella Advisors dark money network? /7
