The man who was just arrested for allegedly trying to kill Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh has been identified as Nicholas John Roske.
Roske now has much to answer for, but there is another question that needs to be answered as well.
Should democrats shoulder some of the blame?
Was Roske radicalized by the far left?
It’s a fair question to ask, considering that the left often falsely blame conservatives for radicalizing people.
Here’s the thing about this situation though.
There is ample evidence to support the idea that Roske was indeed radicalized by the Biden Administration, Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and other democrats.

First off, Fox News has more information on the suspect, including his motives:
The armed California man arrested near the Maryland home of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh Wednesday morning has been identified as Nicholas John Roske, law enforcement sources tell Fox News.
Roske of Simi Valley, California, was carrying a gun, knife and pepper spray when arrested and had made violent threats against Kavanaugh, sources said. Roske was picked up on a nearby street after calling police on 911 to report himself.
A criminal complaint obtained by Fox News shows that Roske is being charged with attempting to murder a United States Supreme Court Justice. He is scheduled to have a first appearance in federal court in Maryland Wednesday afternoon.
He told officers that he wanted “to give his life purpose” and purchased the gun and other items for the purpose of breaking into Kavanaugh’s home and killing the justice and then himself. Roske admitted in a second interview with the FBI of his intent to kill Kavanaugh and himself, according to an affidavit in support of the criminal complaint.
Roske told detectives that “he was upset about the leak of a recent Supreme Court draft decision regarding the right to an abortion as well as the recent school shooting in Uvalde, Texas,” and believed Kavanaugh “would side with Second Amendment decisions that would loosen gun control laws,” according to the affidavit.
BREAKING: @DCexaminer can confirm the suspect arrested near Justice Kavanaugh’s home is Nicholas John Roske, who the FBI says had a gun, was upset about the SCOTUS leak overturning Roe & the Uvalde shooting, and had come to kill Kavanaugh & then himself.https://t.co/yqsficB7Nx pic.twitter.com/upwKbxNyCJ

The Biden Administration had plenty of chances to condemn activists who originally leaked the home addresses of Kavanaugh and other Supreme Court justices.
Jen Psaki and company chose not to:

Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi applauded protestors for their “righteous anger:”

Daily Wire reported on that story:
Pelosi referred to expressions by pro-abortion rights activists over the past week as righteous anger.
“While we have seen and heard extraordinary anguish in our communities, we have been moved by how so many have channeled their righteous anger into meaningful action: planning to march and mobilize to make their voices heard,” Pelosi wrote.

Last night, an armed man showed up to Justice Kavanaugh’s home and said he planned to kill him.
The Biden White House has yet to condemn this type of evil behavior.
Let’s not forget in May they actually encouraged protests outside of the justices’ homes.
It’s sickening.

Chuck Schumer was the worst of them though.
Schumer used very inflammatory language aimed directly at Kavanaugh at an abortion rally outside of the Supreme Court back in 2020:
Chuck Schumer called for this violence. The armed lunatic who showed up at Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s home was simply following orders. Justice cannot be served under the threat of mob violence. https://t.co/cZ3OE4QbFh pic.twitter.com/FDLbzdXdBW

“I want to tell you, Gorsuch, I want to tell you, Kavanaugh, you have released the whirlwind and you will pay the price!” yelled Schumer.
“You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions.”
If that wasn’t a threat, than what is?

Remember when Psaki said the White House “encourages" protests outside judge’s homes?
Remember when Schumer said he’s completely okay with protests outside their houses?
Well, a man was arrested outside Brett Kavanaugh's home and told police he wanted to kill him.

Here’s the truth.
Left-wing extremists are the biggest threat to American democracy today.
An armed man showed up to assassinate Brett Kavanaugh at his home
Abortion radicals firebombed a New York pregnancy center
Matt Walsh is facing death threats for his movie 'What Is A Woman?'
But we're told every day that "Right-Wing Terrorism" is the biggest threat to America?

So the attempted Kavanaugh assassin was:
-Angry Roe v. Wade was being overturned
-Armed with a handgun, zip-ties, and crowbar
-Picked Kavanaugh because he "would side with the Second Amendment" on gun control
-Found Kavanaugh's address online and planned murder/suicide

Remember, democrats have been doing this for years:
