This is why I condemn Maxine Waters and anybody else who calls for violence against this administration. People take it seriously. Do we really need another baseball game incident for people to remember?


New York man arrested for threatening to kill two US senators over backing Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh

New York resident Ronald DeRisi was arrested Friday for allegedly threatening to murder and assault two U.S. senators over their support for the successful nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, federal authorties said.

In one voicemail , DeRisi allegedly warned one senator that he had a "present” for the lawmaker. “It’s a nine millimeter. Side of your … skull … Yeah, Kavanaugh – I don’t think so," DeRisi allegedly said.

The arrest comes two days after the husband of Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, said he received a letter that claimed to contain the deadly toxin ricin, which also mentioned her vote to confirm Kavanaugh to the high court.

Maxine never called for violence. She called for people to confront our legislators by invoking our 1st amendment.

I think every person who uses social media to make death threats should be given a visit by the FBI and arrested and charges pressed. Death threats should be taken seriously. And people who make them should go to jail.
