Armed Man Seeking to Kill Justice Kavanaugh Arrested Near His Home
Townhall.com ^ | 8 June A.D. 2022 | Spencer Brown

An armed California man was arrested near Justice Brett Kavanaugh's home between 1:00 and 2:00 am Wednesday and allegedly told law enforcement he wanted to kill the Supreme Court justice, according to reporting from multiple sources that was confirmed by the Supreme Court on Wednesday.

According to SCOTUSblog, a spokesperson for the Court confirmed that "At approximately 1:50 a.m. today, a man was arrested near Justice Kavanaugh's residence. The man was armed and made threats against Justice Kavanaugh."

Sources who spoke with The Washington Post provided additional details:

The man was reportedly carrying "at least one weapon" when he was confronted by authorities. WaPo's report was sparse on specific details, but what was reported is damning in light of the White House's refusal to condemn protests targeting justices private homes:

The individual, described as a man in his mid-20s, was found to be carrying at least one weapon and burglary tools, these people said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation. Police were apparently notified that the person might pose a threat to the justice, but it was not immediately clear who provided the initial tip, these people said. The man apparently did not make it on to Kavanaugh’s property in Montgomery County, but he was stopped on a nearby street, these people said.

Two people familiar with the investigation said the initial evidence indicates the man was angry about the leaked draft of an opinion by the Supreme Court signaling the court is preparing to overturn Roe. v. Wade, the 49-year-old decision that guaranteed a person’s constitutional right to have an abortion. He was also angry over a recent spate of mass shootings, those people said.

Before she left for her MSNBC gig, then-White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki tried to brush off leftists targeting originalist Supreme Court Justices' homes as just a result of "women across the country [who] are worried about their fundamental rights."

After several justices' homes were subsequently targeted and violent threats escalated, the White House's Karine Jean-Pierre tweeted a too-little, too-late clarification that President Biden only supports peaceful protests.

The arrest of a man with at least one weapon who proclaimed his desire to kill Justice Kavanaugh over the leaked SCOTUS opinion that showed Roe v. Wade being overturned follows violent attacks against pro-life organizations as the left's rhetoric — and actions — against conservatives continue to escalate.

This is a developing story and may be updated.

Okay, who out there believes Matthew McConaughey comes out in WH Press Room and bites his lip and pauses, and tries to connect with Brett Baier?

Who among you?

Roe. v. Wade, the 49-year-old decision that guaranteed created a person’s constitutional right to have an abortion.

Well now his statement about wanting to kill Kavanaugh could get tossed if he wasn’t advised of his Miranda rights. What goes around comes around.

If he made the statement voluntarily, it would be admissible.

The White House’s response was “we understand their passion...”

Talking about criminal nutcases it would be nice to see a daily numbers breakdown of 'Killers By Political Party'...

The country wants to decrease crime? Focus on controlling democrat criminals.

How did this man know where Kavanagh lives? That should be confidential information.

What weapon was he carrying? A boxcutter, maybe, or brass knuckles? If it was a firearm it seems the usual media disinfo would be in play.

The Dems put it out and Biden refused to condemn people visiting their homes and using bullhorns to coordinate chants against them.

If he wasn’t white, want to bet his race wouldn’t be mentioned?

If he wasn't white the "w" would be capitalized.

As in because of when you get "w"ay up there in the alphabet it gets harder to rermembah.

Leftist abortion activists gave out the addresses of the conservative Justices and organized protests outside of their homes. The media praised this as a great thing for “democracy.”

Any word on who this person arrested is? Heard on the radio this happened early this morning. Surely by now his name/info should have been released.
