An eye-popping story largely glossed over by the media this week was that of Nicholas John Roske, a 26-year-old man charged with the attempted murder of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Roske was found outside Kavanaugh’s Maryland residence with a knife, firearm, and other tools intended to force entry into the home for kidnapping, murder, or both.
How did Roske find Kavanaugh’s personal address, you might ask? Well, ever since the leaked opinion draft indicating that Roe v. Wade could be overturned hit the media, pro-choice groups have started working overtime to harass, intimidate, and endanger the lives of conservative Surepem Court justices. One way of doing that was to post and circulate protests at the justices’ private residences which in turn widely distributed their home addresses.
Police just raided Roske’s home in California as part of the ongoing investigation:
Federal agents raided the family home of the Simi Valley, California man accused of planning to murder Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Nicholas John Roske, 26, was charged with the attempted murder a Supreme Court Justice. If convicted, he faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison.
The FBI busted down the front door of the home Wednesday night after obtaining a search warrant, CBS Los Angeles reports.
Roske was taken into custody overnight Wednesday near Kavanaugh’s home and his backpack and suitcase were seized. Authorities say they contained a black tactical chest rig, tactical knife, a Glock 17 pistol with two magazines and ammunition, pepper spray, zip ties, a hammer, screwdriver, nail punch, crowbar, pistol light, duct tape, hiking boots with padding on the outside of the soles, and other items.
This wasn’t just a baseless online threat of harassment or violence with no action. The man traveled from California to Maryland with weapons in hand, only stopped by his own conscience, perhaps, before he carried out his crimes.
The pro-abortion group “Ruth Sent Us,” named in honor of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, though she should surely recoil at the treatment of her fellow justices, quickly doxxed the conservative justices shortly after the draft opinion leaked and called for ongoing harassment.
When news broke of Roske’s arrest, the group dismissed and downplayed the threat and essentially argued that these justices have it coming to them if they rule the “wrong way”:
The Washington Post reported on Wednesday morning that a California man “carrying at least one weapon” and “burglary tools” was arrested close to Kavanaugh’s residence in Maryland around 1:50 a.m. The man was allegedly angry about the court’s aim to get rid of Roe v. Wade and reportedly confessed to officers that “he wanted to kill the Supreme Court justice.”
Ruth Sent Us, however, chose to minimize the threat against Kavanaugh by downplaying the weapon wielded by the arrested man and diverting the conversation to “daily mass-murders in America.”
Ruth Sent Us was one of the many groups that encouraged protesting and other tactics to bully conservative justices into abandoning their position on Dobbs. They even organized “Walk-by Wednesday” where they led crowds into the justices’ neighborhoods and by their homes in two states.
The only reason Kavanaugh’s home address is circulating so widely is thanks in part to Ruth Sent Us and ongoing calls for continued protests and harassment. Justice Samuel Alito lives across the Potomac in Virginia and has also been doxxed and similarly harassed by protestors at his private residence as well.
Now, the group is calling for the targeting of Justice Amy Coney Barrett and potentially her young children by posting their schedules including school and church information:
A Department of Homeland Security report said the Supreme Court draft opinion has unleashed a wave of threats against officials and others and increased the likelihood of extremist violence.
“If you’re in the DC metro area, join us. Our protests at Barrett’s home moved the needle to this coverage,” the group said on Twitter.
Ruth Sent Us specifically noted the Barrett family’s daily schedule and the school her children attend.
Note that the Ruth Sent Us call against Barrett came on the same morning that Roske was arrested outside Kavanaugh’s home.
Furthermore, the fact that the group included information mentioning Barrett’s children and school schedules should be enough to dismantle and investigate Ruth Sent Us for inciting violence and openly endangering the lives of sitting Supreme Court justices and their families.
It is not a stretch to say that Ruth Sent Us is at least somewhat responsible for the ongoing threats and danger to the private residences of several Supreme Court justices. Just the fact that their home addresses have been widely circulated means that any psycho or pro-abortion activist may decide to take the issue into his or her own hands, like Roske almost did, and attempt actual violence on a justice.
Supreme Court Justices aren’t the only ones feeling the wrath of pro-abortion advocates. A pro-life center in Buffalo, New York, was apparently “firebombed” this week by pro-choice activists:
CompassCare leaders are blaming a pro-choice group for firebombing the office and said graffiti was scrawled on a wall that stated, “Jane Was Here.”
“Graffiti on the building left by the arsonists refers to the abortion terrorist group Jane’s Revenge,” the organization said in a Facebook post.
CompassCare said Jane’s Revenge is responsible for another fire that occurred at an anti-abortion facility in Wisconsin last month.
Windows in the reception room and nurses’ office at the Buffalo location were broken, and fires were lit, CompassCare said. Photos were posted online of the damage.
This is a new level of pro-abortion violence directed at pro-life organizations and Supreme Court Justices.
Justice Ginsburg was famously friendly and extremely close to colleagues on the bench, especially her conservative colleagues across the ideological aisle. She would be aghast right now to know the level of harassment and intimidation being carried out in her name.
The media has been trying to ignore but, but the individual attempting to murder Justice Brett Kavanaugh was literally only feet from the Kavanaugh home and perhaps minutes from a potential murder of a sitting Supreme Court Justice.
