Washington — An Alaska man was arrested Wednesday for allegedly threatening to assassinate six members of the Supreme Court and harm two family members, the Justice Department said.
Panos Anastasiou, 76, is accused of sending more than 465 messages to the Supreme Court through an online portal, which included violent, racist, and homophobic rhetoric, according to court filings. Anastasiou allegedly threatened to assassinate, kidnap, torture, hang, behead and execute the justices, and encouraged other people to join him in committing acts of violence, the Justice Department said.
He faces nine counts of making threats against a federal judge and 13 counts of making threats in interstate commerce. Anastasiou appeared before a federal magistrate judge Wednesday and pleaded not guilty.
"We allege that the defendant made repeated, heinous threats to murder and torture Supreme Court Justices and their families to retaliate against them for decisions he disagreed with," Attorney General Merrick Garland, a former federal appeals court judge, said in a statement. "Our justice system depends on the ability of judges to make their decisions based on the law, and not on fear. Our democracy depends on the ability of public officials to do their jobs without fearing for their lives or the safety of their families."
The Supreme Court declined to comment on the charges. An attorney for Anastasiou was not listed in court records.

He won’t be charged with any crimes against women because the Supreme Court can’t determine what a woman is, despite laws on the books specifically for women.
Well, let’s see….
1. Unionized (not just trade unions but Federal, State, Borough and City employees)
2. Commercial fisherman (WTH but a lot of them are libs)
3. Natives who appreciate free money.
Next question?
Six? Would anyone want to hazard as a guess as to which six he had in mind?
Well, there’s a lot of that going around...
Thomas is black and I bet he called Roberts a f*g.
Panos Anastasiou, 76
Heinous.
Heinous.
Quick, somebody send Mariska to thump his ass.

My confidence in the protections afforded our Supreme Court Justices is just SOARING, right now.
Four-fekkin-HUNDRED and sixty-five??
Why wasn’t Law Enforcement off their lard asses at sixty-five?
Or six?
FOUR HUNDRED AND SIXTY-FIVE?? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!
Judas Priest! If I ever get into any kind of Public Office, remind me to carry concealed, locked, and loaded at all times, ‘cuz these fekkin glowies for SURE won’t have my back; unless they’re aiming at it.
I’d say from all three states.
But liberals are supposed to be cool with all that...
Well, if that’s the case, it’s just more of their illogic.
I can’t keep up with their nutsy notions.
Ranked Choice Voting ain’t helping

They are all political Ideologues without 1 ounce of objectivity
They just happen to have Vaginas
The name sounds Greek. Not exactly ‘3rd world hell’.
Have you been to Greece ?
Its not first world,
It’s certainly not Somalia, either.
I have a relative who just married a Greek American with a very Greek name. There are lots of natural-born Greek Americans of generations standing in the US. Nothing in the article suggests that the guy is an immigrant.
He sounds like just a nasty-minded nut. There are lots of ‘regular’ Americans who are nasty-minded and nuts.
Screwball Marxisr
