Senate Majority Leader’s Violent Rhetoric Threatens High Court Justices, Goes Viral
The Department of Justice has charged a California man with the attempted murder of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
U.S. Marshals patrolling outside of Kavanaugh’s Maryland home stopped the heavily armed suspect early Wednesday. He reportedly said he was upset about the leaked Supreme Court opinion on abortion and the school shooting in Uvalde, Texas.
Since the leaked opinion was made public in early May, protestors have gathered regularly outside the homes of Kavanaugh and other conservative Supreme Court justices.
On Tuesday, the Department of Homeland Security warned that the high court’s abortion case, along with immigration and the midterm elections, could trigger domestic extremist violence.
The buildup of left-wing rage against Kavanaugh and other pro-life justices was partly inflamed by Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer when he publicly threatened him, saying “you won’t know what hit you.”

The clip of Schumer’s violent rhetoric, which some have labeled incitement, has gone viral with millions of views and countless posts on Twitter since the attempt on Kavanaugh’s life.
President Biden has condemned any threats, violence or vandalism against the justices but he’s stayed silent on a growing wave of intimidation and violence aimed at conservative pro-life organizations that help women across the country.
Extremists have firebombed pro-life groups in Oregon, Wisconsin and New York in recent weeks. Early Tuesday morning they targeted CompassCare Pregnancy Services in Buffalo, New York.
“The building itself sustained heavy damage,” said CompassCare CEO Rev. Jim Harden. “It is unusable at present. At least 25% fire damage and 100% smoke damage throughout.”
With signature graffiti on the side of his building, Harden suspects the abortion terrorist group known as Jane’s Revenge.
That group could also be responsible for the Wisconsin and Oregon firebombings.
