Journalist Glenn Greenwald bluntly accused MSNBC host Joy Reid of inciting violence after an armed, unhinged man was arrested outside Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s Maryland home.
“He was angry about the Court’s leaked ruling in Roe and the lack of gun control, and reportedly sought to kill Justice Kavanaugh in response. It’s vital that we know which cable hosts he likes and which magazines he reads so we know who radicalized him and is to blame for this,” Greenwald tweeted.
“We don’t yet know if this would-be Kavanaugh murderer watches Joy Reid’s show — chances are very high he didn’t since virtually nobody does — but she regularly calls the Justice a Christian nationalist who favors theocracy. Did this inspire violence?” he pointedly asked.
The man was armed with a gun and a knife as well as pepper spray according to The Washington Post. He was taken into custody Wednesday morning at approximately 1:50 near Kavanaugh’s home. The man had made death threats against the Justice and evidently fully intended to kill him. He was reportedly from out of state and took a taxi to Kavanaugh’s home.

“The man, described as being from California and in his mid-20s, was taken into custody by police after telling officers he wanted to kill the justice, according to people familiar with the investigation,” the Washington Post reported. “He apparently did not make it onto Kavanaugh’s property in Montgomery County but was stopped on a nearby street and was found to be carrying at least one weapon and burglary tools, these people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.”
The MSNBC protagonist’s timing was epic. The same day that Kavanaugh’s life was threatened by a radicalized pro-abortion leftist, Reid also tweeted, “The SCOTUS Christian Nationalists strike again…”

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has also decried the “reckless” and “apocalyptic” rhetoric from those criticizing the Supreme Court for potentially overturning the landmark abortion case Roe v. Wade after an opinion by Justice Samuel Alito was leaked to the media.
He also accused Democrats of blocking a bill that would provide police security to the immediate families of Supreme Court Justices.

“This is exactly, exactly the kind of event that many feared that the terrible breach of the court’s rules and norms could fuel. This is exactly the kind of event that many worried the unhinged, reckless, apocalyptic rhetoric from prominent figures toward the court going back many months and especially in recent weeks could make more likely,” McConnell stated.
Leftists such as Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) have been threatening Kavanaugh ever since he was nominated to the Supreme Court by then-President Donald Trump.

Conservatives are warning that the hatred on the left is now out of control:
The fact that he would admit that he was going to kill justice Kavanaugh was a testament to the left-wing media and the violent extremists and the Democrat party. He felt comfortable that he was doing the work of the ideologues

There are several examples of liberal pols and their accomplices in the MSM creating such inflammatory and toxic discourse, that it inspires folks to break the law and commit violence. Just ask Steve Scalise, and the families of that Waukesha parade massacre.

This crap has gone too far!
Glad to see a conservative journalist finally taking it to these liberal journalists who can say anything they want by spewing out their hatred toward conservatives. They are hardly ever challenged, therefore lie to the American people without consequence. Totally shameful and frustrating!
Greenwald is not a conservative. He’s that rarest of creatures- an honest liberal journalist. He just seeks out the truth wherever it leads.
Schumer and Reid should be held accountable. They should be tried for “incting murder”…
The “race lady” said what? Shame on her, and, on anyone who believes a word that she says.
Why do I get the feeling that the Democrat leadership is saying under their breath, “Damn! Miss another chance for Biden to appoint a leftist puppet to the Supreme Court!”
Can we assume that because he is a Joy Reid fan and that the media is giving no description of him that he is black?
Chuck Schumer
Schumer should be removed from the Senate without delay!
God help us. This would-be assassin should be locked up for the rest of his life. Look where the Democrats and the so-called MSM have led us. I’m outraged that children have been slaughtered in their elementary school and that someone with access to the home addresses of the Supreme Court justices leaked them to “protesters.” (“As long as they’re peacefully protesting, it’s perfectly all right.” Paraphrase of Jen Psaki’s comment, which she stated that the President supports.)
Something has to be done. I know some people who are Democrats, some are actually friends, and I cannot believe that they would approve of the mess that Democrats have put this country in. Can we impeach ALL of them? They’re just not sane anymore.
Put him in the DC gulag.
I think we can all agree that Joyless Reid is a black supremacist, racist, anti-democracy, anti-American, low intellect nothing.
Typical shit monkey, they’re coming out of the woodwork from coast to coast.
So, that is democrat logic for you…the man is angry about the lack of “gun control”, yet he was heading to an innocent man’s (justice’s) home to commit a violent act of murder with a gun? These sociopaths just keep exposing themselves for the complete idiots that they are.
