Capitol Police investigating suspicious vehicle outside Supreme Court

[RandySF]

Capitol Police are investigating a suspicious vehicle in front of the Supreme Court on Tuesday morning, a day after the court convened for a new session.

A notice from the Capitol Police’s Twitter account shortly before 10 a.m. urged people to stay away from the area. Road closures around the Supreme Court, which is just across the street from the Capitol, are currently in effect during the investigation.

Tuesday’s incident comes less than two months after a North Carolina man parked his car on the sidewalk in front of the Library of Congress — which is also a short walk from the Capitol and the Supreme Court — and claimed he had a bomb.

2. I hope they find the person and lock them up

Doesn’t matter how bad they are, the justices don’t deserve death.

4. Ya know, if you're planning a one man insurrection-styled attack on the SC, ...

..maybe don't park your old beater truck covered in Maga /Anarchy & Gunz-R-us stickers right in front of the building.

6. Or do what Justices Thomas, Kavanaugh, Barrett did: just get appointed to the SCOTUS and ...

... collect a paycheck while doing it.

7. I wonder if their benches have MAGA stickers on them.

And then there's the Donald Trump superhero underwear under their robes...

8. The MAGA stickers are tatooed on their butts.

11. Another day, another nut

Although, this guy did not get to sit as long as the nut in front of the Library of Congress a few months ago.

About the "suspicious vehicle" in front of SCOTUS, police say:

- The suspect illegally parked. Cops approached and he said "the time for talking is done." Tactical teams removed him.

- Motivations unclear for now. No weapons found.

- Suspect is a 55 year-old from Michigan.
