Psaki Says There Is No ‘Official U.S. Government Position’ On Activists Protesting Outside SCOTUS Justices’ Homes

White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Thursday that there was no “official U.S. Government position” on where protesters chose to gather, even if that meant they were publishing the home addresses of sitting Supreme Court justices.

After congratulating Psaki’s incoming replacement Karine Jean-Pierre on being named President Joe Biden’s next press secretary, Fox News’ Peter Doocy turned to the topic of planned protests over the recently leaked early opinion draft indicating that the Supreme Court could be poised to overturnlandmark abortion cases Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey.
 

Doocy: "[Y]ou guys spent some time...talking about what you think are...extreme wings of the [GOP]. Do you think the progressive activists that are now planning protests outside of justices' houses are extreme?"

Psaki: "Peaceful protests? No. Peaceful protest is not extreme." pic.twitter.com/2zeaY4qXzY
