U.S. Marshals Were Banned From Arresting Leftist Supreme Court Protesters

 Now there's direct evidence that the Biden administration not only refused to protect Supreme Court justices in the wake of the Dobbs decision pro-abortion protests at their homes, but specific orders were given not to arrest the leftists.

Sen. Katie Britt unveiled a series of training slides used to prepare Marshals for their assignments as she grilled Attorney General Merrick Garland at a Senate Appropriations subcommittee hearing Tuesday.

The slides instructed the Marshals to "Avoid​, unless absolutely necessary,​ any criminal enforcement​"​ ​involving protesters and that "Making arrests and initiating prosecutions was not the goal" of their being stationed outside the residences of the court's six conservative jurists.

Another slide directed Marshals not to "Engage [in] protest-related enforcement" and to allow the protesters to exercise their First Amendment rights except to protect the justices and their families.

Another slide cited by Britt directed Marshals to clear any "Enforcement action" with the local US Attorney's office "In advance" and warned: "It is counter-productive to make arrests on cases that the USAO will not charge and prosecute."

The Marshals were aggressively warned not to interfere with the leftist protesters and to allow them to engage in their illegal harassment, and to do nothing short of an actual terrorist attack.

We've seen plenty of this with violations of the law with the Clintons and Trump, but we've also seen plenty of it with protest activity, domestic terrorism and riots.
