Man (allegedly self-identified trans woman?) arrested outside Justice Kavanaugh’s house with loaded Glock pistol after expressing intent to assassinate the Justice. Charged with attempting to murder an associate justice of the supreme court.
He likely knew where to find Kavanaugh as the result of highly-publicized protests outside conservative Justices’ homes. Protests at the home of Supreme Court justices are expressly illegal under federal law, a law the Biden DOJ has decided not to enforce.
