U.S. Issues Sanctions Against Foreign Organization that Aided Violent Pro-Abortion Group “Jane’s Revenge”

Last month, the federal government imposed sanctions on a left-wing terrorist organization accused of aiding violent groups like Jane’s Revenge.

In May of 2022, a draft opinion of the U.S. Supreme Court’s Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade was leaked to the media. After the leak, the domestic terror group Jane’s Revenge fueled violence against dozens of pro-life organizations and claimed credit for attacks like the 2022 firebombing of Wisconsin Family Action.

In response, more than 100 congressmen — including all four congressmen from Arkansas — urged the U.S. Department of Justice to take action against Jane’s Revenge, and U.S. Sen. Tom Cotton (R – AR) wrote a letter urging the DOJ to investigate Jane’s Revenge as a domestic terror group.

Four members of Jane’s Revenge were eventually brought to justice. Now the United States government is issuing sanctions against a foreign terrorist group it says supported Jane’s Revenge, Antifa, and other violent organizations.

On August 26, the U.S. Department of State designated Autistici/Inventati (A/I Collective) as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist.

In a statement, the department said, “The A/I Collective is an Italy-based extremist group that supplies the digital infrastructure for Antifa cells and other radical left-wing networks in the United States, Europe, and elsewhere across the world.”

The State Department says A/I Collective provided encryption tools and digital infrastructure to anarchist terror cells in Europe and the United States — including Jane’s Revenge — writing:

“The violent far-left extremists, ‘Jane’s Revenge,’ who waged a firebombing campaign against crisis pregnancy centers across the United States, relied on A/I Collective tools and services to publish official communiqués and claims of responsibility for violent and criminal acts and to incite copycat attacks. Four members of the group were later charged for violating federal law and engaging in a ‘conspiracy against rights’ through threats of force and intimidation.”

It’s taken a long time to reach this point, but the federal government is finally taking action not only against Jane’s Revenge, but also against the other people who aided and abetted the violence Jane’s Revenge caused.

Hopefully, this means we will never again see the kind of pro-abortion violence that we did in 2022.
