11 pro-life activists have been indicted by Biden's DOJ for protesting outside an abortion clinic in Tennessee.

Meet the Christian memaws and papaws charged as "co-conspirators" now facing up to 11 years in federal prison for a peaceful "blockade" demonstration 🧵

FBI agents with "guns drawn" reportedly raided the home of 73-year-old Chester Eugene Gallagher after the pro-life leader promoted a series of anti-abortion events last year on social media in the Nashville area and advertised an activist blockade of an abortion clinic.

Pro-life activist Heather Idoni, the 58-year-old owner of Beloved Books bookstore turned-Ukraine relief center, was charged by the DOJ with a civil rights conspiracy and a Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act (FACE Act) offense for "blockading" an abortion facility.

The pro-life advocate's passport was confiscated by federal authorities and a federal judge later denied Idoni's request to travel on a humanitarian mission trip to help refugees in Ukraine while supporting her Ukrainian adopted son living in the war-torn country.

61-year-old evangelist and pro-life missionary Calvin John Zastrow (now being prosecuted by the DOJ) was once arrested for reading the Bible and preaching on a public sidewalk across the street from an abortion clinic.

Biden's DOJ is targeting this pro-life street preacher who advocates for group prayer and peaceful sit-in protests.

Pro-lifers sitting in front of abortion clinics are praying for God's intervention, which the DOJ calls "using physical obstruction to intimidate and interfere."

The preacher's daughter Eva Darlene Zastrow is also named in the federal indictment for demonstrating outside an abortion facility. Here she explains what these pro-life protests are like:

"I'm here because I care about you and your baby," she told a mother seeking an abortion.

50-year-old Dr. Coleman Boyd, a pro-life physician indicted by the DOJ for coordinating a peaceful protest at an abortion clinic, frequents facilities to read scripture and dissuade abortion seekers.

"That baby is a gift from God."
"This is your son or daughter."
"Let us adopt."

55-year-old Paul Vaughn of Personhood Tennessee said the scene of the pro-life protest (which the federal charges stem from) was "like church service" with protestors "singing hymns, reading scripture, praying."

56-year-old cancer survivor Dennis Earl Green, the director of Life and Liberty Ministries, is accused of engaging in "a conspiracy" to prevent a clinic from aborting babies by being part of a peaceful protest that blocked access to a Tennessee abortion facility.

Biden's DOJ is coming after 87-year-old Eva Edl, a pro-life icon arrested 40+ times for blockading abortion clinics and a survivor of a communist concentration camp.

Instead of charging the far-left terrorists who have firebombed numerous pregnancy centers, Biden's DOJ is targeting this pro-life grandmother and bookstore owner for peacefully protesting at an abortion clinic.
