Nicholas John Roske’s attempt on Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s life reveals a disturbing reaction to conservative successes and gun rights security.
Roske plans to plead guilty to attempting to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.
Arrested in June 2022 near Kavanaugh’s Maryland home, Roske was equipped for sinister deeds, wearing black and carrying a gun, knife, and zip ties.
Roske, from Simi Valley, California, indicated he would enter a guilty plea without a deal, confronting a potential life sentence.
His motivation stemmed from a leaked draft opinion suggesting the possible overturn of Roe v. Wade, a landmark decision crucial to liberals.
Furthermore, Roske was troubled by the Uvalde, Texas school shooting and anticipated Kavanaugh could support weaker gun control laws.
He believed eliminating a conservative justice might influence the Supreme Court’s trajectory “for decades to come.”
Fear of conservative influence should never cross the line into violence.
“A California man will plead guilty to trying to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh at his home in a suburb of Washington, D.C., nearly three years ago, the defendant’s attorneys said in a court filing on Wednesday,” reports AP News.
Arrested after calling 911 with suicidal intentions, Roske was spotted by U.S. marshals before he could proceed with his plan.
Authorities considered a mental evaluation, but his defense attorney dismissed concerns regarding his mental competency.

In response to the incident, security measures for Supreme Court justices and their families saw immediate intensification.
The preservation of our nation’s legal foundations is paramount, and protecting our justices is a solemn national duty, affirming America’s commitment to liberty and justice.
This chilling event is a stark reminder of the lengths to which some oppose the conservative values upon which America was founded.
It serves as a call to arms for those who value our constitutional republic, as Americans unite to ensure the safety of our leaders.
