A man armed with a gun, a knife, and burglary tools was arrested near the home of Supreme Court justice Brett Kavanaugh in the early morning hours of June 8, and sources tell the Washington Post that the man told police he wanted to assassinate Justice Kavanaugh.
After the news broke, Senate minority leader Mitch McConnell immediately went to the Senate floor to demand that House Democrats vote today “before the sun sets” on a bill the Senate unanimously passed on May 9 to fund security for Supreme Court justices’ families.
Dick Durbin of Illinois, the second-ranking Democrat in the Senate, said he was very concerned the House hadn’t yet voted on the bill.
House Democrats have claimed they have not moved the legislation because they want to add funding for Supreme Court clerks and staff, but the notion that it would take more than a month to make such a minor change to the bill is preposterous.

They've already got protection, numbnuts.
There were Secret Service agents and local deputies parked across the street standing guard.
The kook never had a chance in hell of getting to Kavanaugh.
Regular Federal judges don't get any protection.
This is all just more Repugnant political games bullshit.

The rest of the world and Nancy back to McConnel: Go blow yourself you evil turtle-faced troll.
Mitch is scared. He should be.. this is going to sting Repukes. Sorry Mitch, if you weren't just such a pig.
Bottom line, shut up Mitch.. this aint' your show, Princess.
So, Mitch is worried about SCOTUS justices and their families, but he could give a shit about the babies killed in TX last week.
Does he not think we hear him? What a dick!!!
vitriol is not a substitute for measured thought

Supreme Court justices only get security protection during domestic trips outside the Washington metropolitan area when they request it, according to a U.S. Marshals Service policy unveiled Wednesday by a court watchdog group.
Fix the Court, a nonpartisan group that advocates accountability and transparency at the Supreme Court, obtained the security policy and hundreds of pages of related records through a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit. The documents are an official and more detailed peek inside a security arrangement that gives justices broad discretion when it comes to their protection.

It is also illegal to demonstrate outside SCOTUS/judges homes -but Garland isn't making charges
If it were Sotomayor who was threatened, the Dems would be screaming to pass a protection bill.
Just try logging off for an hour first. Then two the next day. And so on.
You DO NOT educate anyone. Your drunken Nazi death poetry is understandable only to you.
You need to go away Hawk. Start visualizing your departure.
It's time.
it's illegal to even demonstrate at a judges house
Obviously not.
Yet no one was arrested but the couple who showed firearms in the protection of their home and property.
"The (Supreme) court’s denial of the McCloskeys’ petition for appeal Monday came in an unsigned order without noted comment or dissent."

This is a blow to anyone who needs to protect their home or property.
Oh, man. Why are you still here? You are the boil on the taint of this forum.
Begone, beeyach.
schools are institutions. homes are not able to be hardened
Pelosi needs to pass the bill for their security

Pelosi wants someone to shoot a SC justice with a AR15.
