The Roman Catholic faith of Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., shows a “conflict of interest” with his responsibility to hold the Supreme Court accountable as chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, according to the pro-choice activist group Ruth Sent Us, which seemed to threaten protests outside Durbin’s houses.

The Senate Judiciary Committee declared Friday that Durbin is “pressing the CEOs of Discord and Twitch about the role the platforms play in disseminating hatred and extremist content—and what they’re doing in response” in the wake of the Buffalo shooting.

Ruth Sent Us, which has become notorious for assembling demonstrations at the homes of Supreme Court justices in the wake of the leaked draft opinion striking down the key abortion precedent Roe v. Wade, pressed Durbin to “clean up SCOTUS first.”

“Announce televised hearings into the traitors and sexual assaulters on the Court,” the organization posted on Twitter, listing Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito (author of the draft opinion), and Brett Kavanaugh. “Watch your power grow.”

Ruth Sent Us threatened demonstrations at Durbin’s houses. “We’re going to start protests at your homes to make sure you hear our message,” the group continued Friday.

Ruth Sent Us added another reply Sunday, denouncing Durbin for his faith.

“Durbin, there is a conflict of interest between your Catholic faith and your role as Chair of [the Senate Judiciary Committee], with sole discretion to hold hearings into corrupt Catholic Justices,” the activist group stated. “We demand answers. Catholic [Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.], speak up as well.”

Ruth Sent Us shared a link to a Feb. 2018 article reporting that Bishop Thomas John Paprocki of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Springfield, Illinois, decided to uphold a 2004 decision to deny Durbin Holy Communion over his abortion votes, particularly his vote against the Pain-Capable Unborn Children’s Protection Act in 2018.

San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone declared Friday that he would bar House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from getting Holy Communion due to her view on abortion.

“A Catholic legislator who supports procured abortion, after knowing the teaching of the Church, commits a manifestly grave sin which is a cause of most serious scandal to others,” Cordileone announced in a letter to Pelosi. “Therefore, universal Church law provides that such persons ‘are not to be admitted to Holy Communion.’"

The San Francisco Examiner’s editorial board pressed Pope Francis to remove Cordileone for this.

The Catechism of the Catholic Church is unambiguous on the question of abortion, both in procuring one and helping in the practice: “Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable.”
