CNN's law enforcement correspondent downplayed a
violent threat against Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh after an
armed California man was arrested outside Kavanaugh's home in Maryland, early Wednesday morning.

Wild’s initial report on CNN at 11 am EST wondered if the man "had a
weapon at all," and did not disclose the violent threat. Law enforcement
officials and other networks were already reporting the man was armed
with a knife and a gun and admitted to wanting to harm or kill the
Supreme Court Justice.
"We don't yet know what the nature of the
threat was. We don't know what language the threat was or what kind of
weapon this man might have had, if he had one at all, because the
information at this point is just so thin," Wild began, while the chyron
below her read, "Man with weapon detained near Justice Kavanaugh's
home."
The reporter went on to warn about political violence from "both sides" of the abortion debate, after the Supreme Court draft opinion poised to strike down Roe v. Wade was leaked to the media last month.
"This
certainly contributes to this overall threat with landscape we've been
talking a lot about," she stated. "This is an extremely passionate
issue. There are emotions on both sides. Federal officials have made
clear over and over they believe the risk truly comes from both sides of
this abortion debate."
"People are angry, they might seek to use
the abortion ruling as a justification to cause violence and that puts
the Supreme Court justices, their staff and other members of this
judiciary, especially the Supreme Court, at risk," the CNN reporter
concluded. Hours later, Wild updated her report to include that the man
was indeed armed with multiple weapons.
Nicholas John Roske, 26, of California, was later charged with attempted murder.
According to a criminal complaint and affidavit filed in federal court
in Maryland, Wednesday, Roske said he purchased the gun to kill
Kavanaugh and himself.
Roske told police he was upset at both the fate of Roe v. Wade and
attempts to loosen gun control laws after the Uvalde, Texas shooting.
Pro-choice activists have protested outside the home of conservative justices since the leak. Several groups revealed they still planned to protest outside Kavanaugh's home Wednesday night, despite the violent attempt hours earlier.
Several pro-life centers and churches have been targeted by pro-choice activists as well.
An abortion activist group calling themselves "Jane’s Revenge" has taken credit for several acts of violence, including alleged firebombings of a New York pro-life clinic this week, a Wisconsin pro-life group last month, and vandalism of Seattle-area and Washington D.C. crisis pregnancy centers.
NBC News correspondent Yamiche Alcindor worried Democrats would have a difficult time making Americans "care" and pay attention to the January 6 hearings, amid high gas prices, inflation, and a baby formula shortage. Appearing in a MSNBC panel Monday, Alcindor told host Andrea Mitchell that the "biggest challenge" the January 6 House Select Committee faced was getting Americans to have the same level of concern for their investigation. "I think the biggest challenge for lawmakers here as they talk about these sort of huge ideas of American democracy and sort of the experiment that we’re all living and benefiting from possibly being brought to his knees is whether or not they can make people care, Andrea," she said.

Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon discuss President Donald Trump's comments about race after the 2019 Oscars. Be nice if Spike Lee could read his notes, or better yet not have to use notes at all, when doing his racist hit on your President, who has done more for African Americans (Criminal Justice Reform, Lowest Unemployment numbers in History, Tax Cuts,etc.) than almost any other Pres! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 25, 2019 The left loves to hate on Trump, calling him a racist and what not. I know Trump can be juvenile sometimes – certainly – but the racist and hateful name-calling is just what it is, garbage.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez scrambled Sunday to explain why neighbors at her listed Bronx address never saw her there — and ended up claiming she recently relocatedto a larger place nearby. The day after The Post reported that residents said they had never seen her around — and she ducked questions about it after an appearance — her spokesman said the Democratic freshman congresswoman now lives with her boyfriend in a two-bedroom apartment “a block and a half away.’’ The pair relocated there earlier this month, he said. “She lives in the same neighborhood she’s lived in for years,” said the spokesman, Corbin Trent. “She is not living in the exact same condo.’’ The recent move still didn’t explain why residents at her previous digs — a one-bedroom Bronx condo owned by her mom — insisted they had never seen her there. U.S. reps and senators are required to have a residence in their home districts. Trent claimed that Ocasio-Cortez, 29, was at her new home Sunday afternoon, al
