A California man angry about abortion and gun rights cases pleaded guilty on Tuesday to attempting to kill U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh at his Maryland home, the Justice Department said.
Nicholas John Roske, 29, of Simi Valley, admitted to flying from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., on June 7, 2022 with a firearm and ammunition in his suitcase in an effort to target the high court justice, federal prosecutors said.

At around 1:05 a.m. on June 8, 2022, two Deputy U.S. Marshals protecting Kavanaugh's home saw Roske arrive in front of the residence. He was wearing black clothing and had a backpack and suitcase, prosecutors said.

Local authorities arrived at the scene where they searched Roske’s suitcase and found a firearm; black tactical chest rig and tactical knife; two magazines, each containing 10 rounds of ammunition; 17 additional rounds; pepper spray; zip ties; a hammer; screwdrivers; a nail punch; a crowbar; a pistol light; duct tape; hiking boots with padding on the outside of the soles; and lock-pick tools, along with other items.
SNIPProsecutors said Roske used an encrypted platform to send messages suggesting he planned to kill three Supreme Court justices.
"Im gonna stop roe v wade from being overturned," Roske allegedly said in the messages. "I could get at least one, which would change the votes for decades to come. and I am shooting for 3 ... at the end of the day biden still chooses the replacements. gop cant do s--- about it."
Sounds like he used WhatsApp.
Also sounds like he had international help as that might be how they found him.
So, my posts about them wanting to kill us are validated. If he would kill a Supreme Court Justice, what would he do to a common man like me? It is time to remove these people from this country for our own safety. There is no compromise left. They want to kill us. I don’t want to allow them to do that. Either they have a forced change of mind about killing instead of voting proven over a long period of time, or... (you figure it out).
There. Fixed it.
Because if the reverse had been true, the headline would read Trump Supporter Upset About.......
So,m what is the difference between a “Tactical knife” and a common butcher knife, Bowie or stiletto?
