Man Who Allegedly Planned Brett Kavanaugh Assassination Pleads Not Guilty
Paul Bois 22 Jun 2022
The man who allegedly planned the assassination attempt on Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh over the leaked overturn of Roe v. Wade has pleaded not guilty in federal court.
Earlier this month, police arrested California resident Nicholas John Roske, 26, near Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s house in Maryland on Wednesday after he had allegedly traveled there to murder the sitting judge to protect Roe v. Wade.
“A California man carrying at least one weapon near Brett M. Kavanaugh’s Maryland home has been taken into custody by police after telling officers he wanted to kill the Supreme Court justice,” reported the Washington Post at the time.
“Two people familiar with the investigation said the initial evidence indicates the man was angry about the leaked draft of an opinion by the Supreme Court signaling that the court is preparing to overturn Roe. v. Wade,” continued the Post.
Police and court documents say that Roske had in his possession a Glock-17 pistol, a tactical knife, pepper spray, zip ties, and a crowbar.
During his arraignment in a Maryland federal court on Wednesday, Roske reportedly gave “quick and clear” answers to the questions posed to him regarding the charges as he bowed his head and pleaded not guilty.
Shortly after Roske’s arrest, the White House said that President Joe Biden “condemns the actions of this individual in the strongest terms, and is grateful to law enforcement for quickly taking him into custody.”

Has he been released on bail yet? I'll bet money right now that his trial begins before the last of the Jan 6 defendants.

Nicholas Roske is accused of trying to murder the conservative Supreme Court justice over his position on abortion

Washington Free BeaconPresident Joe Biden’s Department of Justice is dragging its feet in prosecuting Nicholas Roske, the man accused of trying to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, leaving legal experts perplexed about the slow-moving pace of the case.
Roske was indicted for attempted murder of a Supreme Court justice nearly two years ago in June 2022, after allegedly traveling from his parent’s home in California to the Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C., with the intent to kill Kavanaugh. Roske, a biological male who identified in some online posts as a transgender woman, was upset over the leaked Supreme Court draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, according to court documents. ...
"It’s noteworthy that after nearly two years, there is still no trial date or plea agreement in this case," Gerard Filitti, senior counsel at The Lawfare Project, told the Free Beacon. "While pretrial motions would resolve questions about the admissibility of some of the evidence, including statements made by Roske, there is no underlying procedural reason why it would take this long to get to trial."
Prosecutors' willingness to slow-walk the case comes amid an ongoing pressure campaign from progressives seeking to delegitimize the Supreme Court. Biden has repeatedly attacked the nation's High Court, including during last month's State of the Union address where he rebuked the conservative justices for overturning Roe v. Wade. Left-wing billionaires such as George Soros have also bankrolled efforts to pack the Court with more justices. ...

It appears the Biden Administration is not opposed to the assassination of certain justices.

Of course they're not. No leftist/cryptofascist is against the use of violence on those who oppose them. What happened in Weimar Germany in the 1920s is prologue.
