It seems Joe Biden’s Department of Justice doesn’t take the threats against the Supreme Court Justices seriously.
Last month, Justice Brett Kavanaugh was the target of an assassination attempt at his home.
And on Wednesday evening, pro-abortion protestors harrassed Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh at a Morton’s Steakhouse in Washington, D.C., forcing him to leave the restaurant.
Aside from that, there have also been a lot of pro-abortion threats and violence including the firebombing of pro-life and crisis pregnancy centers. People have continued to protest at the homes of the justices who overturned Roe v. Wade last month.
But the DOJ hasn’t sought to curtail the illegal protests, nor have they seemed to take any action against the people behind the firebombings, vandalism, and other threats.
It seems like the safety of the justices is just not a priority for them and that attitude flows down from the top of the Biden Administration.
While the White House issued a milquetoast response in regard to the attempt against Kavanaugh, Biden never issued a formal statement and he himself never condemned it.
Going back, Kavanaugh was dining at swanky Morton’s in downtown D.C. when the mob of violent pro-abortion activists showed up outside and demanded the manager boot him. Kavanaugh was able to finish his meal, but was ushered out the back to avoid the throng, Politico reported.

The leftist group Shutdown DC boasted about the mob action Wednesday night. Here’s what ShutdownDC tweeted:
“We hear Kavanaugh snuck out the back with his security detail. Morton’s should be ashamed for welcoming a man who so clearly hates women.”
Kavanaugh reportedly did not hear or see the protesters but was forced to skip dessert.
A Morton’s spokesperson told Politico it was outrageous that patrons could be disturbed by protesters while dining.
Here’s what the spokesperson said, according to Politico:
“Honorable Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh and all of our other patrons at the restaurant were unduly harassed by unruly protestors while eating dinner at our Morton’s restaurant. Politics, regardless of your side or views, should not trample the freedom at play of the right to congregate and eat dinner. There is a time and place for everything. Disturbing the dinner of all of our customers was an act of selfishness and void of decency.”
More details of this report from The Daily Wire:
Kavanaugh was part of the 5-4 majority that voted last month to overturn the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, which made abortion a federally guaranteed right. The Court ruled that states have the right to allow, regulate, or potentially ban abortion.
Last month, a California man was caught near Kavanaugh’s home who authorities say was planning to assassinate the jurist. Nicholas John Roske, 26, of Simi Valley, California, was arrested in Chevy Case, Maryland, after he allegedly traveled to Kavanaugh’s home armed with weapons and burglary tools. Prosecutors say he wanted to stop Kavanaugh from ruling on Second Amendment and abortion cases.
In 2018, then-White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders was kicked out of a Lexington, Virginia, restaurant by its owner over politics. Red Hen restaurant owner Stephanie Wilkinson defended the move amid a backlash from conservatives, but city officials told Newsweek that the town, some 200 miles south of Washington, had to invest in a tourism campaign after being hit with bad PR. Wilkinson also later warned conservatives in a Washington Post op-ed that they shouldn’t be surprised when restaurant workers spit in their food.
