Pro-abortion activist group Ruth Sent Us sent a “special message” to Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s wife and daughters — on the same day that a would-be assassin, armed with a knife and a gun, was arrested near the justice’s property.
The group, named for the late Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, shared several tweets after reports circulated about the man who was arrested near Kavanaugh’s home — a young man from California who said that in order to give his own life “purpose,” he intended to kill Kavanaugh. He also said that he was angry about the leaked early opinion draft, written by Justice Samuel Alito, which indicated the court might be preparing to strike down Roe v. Wade.
After announcing plans to forge ahead with “peaceful and joyful” protests — outside the homes of Alito, Kavanaugh, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, and Chief Justice John Roberts — in the coming days, they directed the next message to Kavanaugh and his family.
“We offer our thoughts & prayers to Brett & Ashley Kavanaugh after a California man arrived by taxi near their home, armed with a gun & knife, then called the police on himself to confess his murderous rage against the abusive alcoholic ‘Justice.’ We didn’t send him,” the next tweet read.
Fundamentalists want us to cower in fear of their armed attacks of our homes, schools and clinics.
They expect us to go high when they go low. We refuse.
We’re committed to non-violence. Our protests are peaceful and joyful. Protest #SCOTUS6 with @OurRightsDC @downrightimp pic.twitter.com/wsKayaDXhV

The following tweet was billed as a “special message” directed specifically at Kavanaugh’s wife Ashley and their daughters.
“A special message for Ashley Kavanaugh and your daughter — this billboard was on your school grounds. We feel for you. @LeaderMcConnell and the GOP aren’t worried for your safety. They worry only for the expensive Supreme Court they rigged, and their own power,” the tweet read, and included a photo of a poster advertising a crisis pregnancy center.

Several flyers were taped over the poster, including one with a quote often attributed to the late actress Betty White: “If men could get pregnant, abortions would be available at Jiffy Lube.” There is no record suggesting that she ever actually made that statement.
The Federalist’s Mollie Hemingway connected the dots, calling the obvious escalation “horrific.”
“Pro-abortion group that posts directions to Kavanaugh’s home — man arrested today said he used online map to find it — also targeting his young daughters’ school. This escalation and threat against the children must be stopped. Horrific,” she said.
