'Horrific' Message Sent By Pro-Abortion Group to Kavanaugh, Family Day After Would-Be Assassin Arrested

A pro-abortion group has sent a disturbing and “horrific” message to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh and his family less than a day after a man was arrested near their home and charged with attempted assassination.

The group, Ruth Sent Us — named after the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg — shared a number of tweets after reports circulated about the man who was arrested near Kavanaugh’s home.

The suspect, 26-year-old Nicholas John Roske, admitted to authorities that he sought to kill Kavanaugh as a means of giving his life “purpose” after becoming upset by the leaked early opinion draft ruling written by Justice Samuel Alito that indicated a majority of justices ruled to strike down Roe v. Wade and return the issue of abortion to the states.

The Daily Wire notes:

After announcing plans to forge ahead with “peaceful and joyful” protests — outside the homes of Alito, Kavanaugh, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, and Chief Justice John Roberts — in the coming days, they directed the next message to Kavanaugh and his family.

“We offer our thoughts & prayers to Brett & Ashley Kavanaugh after a California man arrived by taxi near their home, armed with a gun & knife, then called the police on himself to confess his murderous rage against the abusive alcoholic ‘Justice.’ We didn’t send him,” another tweet read.

The next tweet was listed as a “special message” directed specifically at Kavanaugh’s wife, Ashley, and their daughters.

“A special message for Ashley Kavanaugh and your daughter — this billboard was on your school grounds. We feel for you. @LeaderMcConnell and the GOP aren’t worried for your safety. They worry only for the expensive Supreme Court they rigged, and their own power,” the tweet read, which included a photo of a poster advertising a crisis pregnancy center.

There were several flyers taped over the poster, including one with a quote often attributed to the late actress Betty White: “If men could get pregnant, abortions would be available at Jiffy Lube.”

However, there is no actual record proving that she ever really made the statement.

The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway called the obvious escalation “horrific.”

“Pro-abortion group that posts directions to Kavanaugh’s home — man arrested today said he used online map to find it — also targeting his young daughters’ school. This escalation and threat against the children must be stopped. Horrific,” she wrote on Twitter.
