Barrett to Tell Lawmakers About Threats She Faced

“As the federal judiciary makes a rare personal pitch to Congress this week for tens of millions of dollars in additional security funding, the Supreme Court is sending a messenger who is positioned to speak in unusually personal terms about the threats the judiciary faces,” CNN reports.

“Justice Amy Coney Barrett has been at the center of several startling security incidents since President Donald Trump named her to the high court nearly six years ago, most recently a swatting attempt at her home in May that was thwarted after police realized she was the target.”
