In the last days before the election, we’ve been seeing an uptick in violence and threats from folks from people on the left against people on the right over campaigns and the election. We reported on the violence against New Hampshire state Senate candidate Lou Garguilo, who said that he had a truck drive at him and his supporters, someone threw a coffee at him, and another person threw a power tool battery at his wife’s head.
There was another incident a few days ago. Scott Lennox was arrested after allegedly threatening Darren Bailey, the Republican gubernatorial candidate in Illinois, in a voicemail.
Warning for graphic language
“I am going to skin Darren Bailey alive, making sure he is still alive. And I’m going to feed his f*cking family to him, as he is alive and screaming in f*cking pain.”
“He is a piece of white *ss racist sh*t and, honestly, if he doesn’t kill himself, I will. You know what. I know where he lives. I know where he sleeps. I know where his kids sleep. And I know the f*cking school he works at,” Lennox allegedly continued.
Lennox added that he would never shoot up a school, but Bailey is teaching “all this motherf*cking misinformation [and] is going to die. So, honestly, he should just kill himself before anything else happens.”
He went on to make statements about abortion, Scaduto said, but she did not detail those comments.
That practically screams like he’s absorbed the Democratic talking points against Republicans. When they tracked down the guy, he reportedly was proud of what he had done. “I literally made it so he and his entire family is on lockdown. I love it,” he supposedly said.
Then on Sunday, there was a report about “white powder” being sent to the Kari Lake campaign and one person who opened the mail being hospitalized as a precaution.
There was also violence directed at protesters at an event for Kathy Hochul. According to a female protester, she was holding up a sign that said “Vote them out” on the street at the event when she was attacked. A video by Viral News NY shows the woman being held by an NYC council person while at the same time being choked by a man.

The woman shoved the lawmaker, Crystal Hudson, off her at one point. You can hear the Hochul people screaming about “election deniers.”
The 24-second clip did not show how the fight began, but the unidentified woman told the photographer it started when someone took her sign, which featured pictures of Hochul and other Democrats with the tagline “Vote Them Out.”
“I was here holding my sign, and … peaceful protest, against you know, Gov. Hochul, and a woman — a very large heavyset woman, I’m assuming, you know, might have been a man — came and took my sign.
“As I was trying to retrieve my sign, there was another man that came and choked me, and there were two other people that were coming and preventing me from trying to get my sign.
“Never wanted to get physical with anyone, I was just there peacefully just holding my sign, and you know, they didn’t want to hear what I had to say.”
Where are the Democrats condemning this? I’m not hearing any condemnation from Gov. Kathy Hochul yet.
I have always condemned political violence of any kind, and Kathy Hochul must do the same. Her continued silence on her supporter choking out a woman simply exercising her First Amendment rights makes her complicit in this attack. pic.twitter.com/mDlPFkPdMs

Indeed, a Democratic politician tried to blame it on Zeldin.
Our democracy is under greater threat than ever from political violence@leezeldin must disavow these supporters of his campaign https://t.co/yx8ygtVeNR

I’m thinking the election can’t come fast enough. But I’m not sure the violence will stop, the left isn’t going to be happy when they lose on Tuesday.
All necessary to “protect Democracy”
Just wait until Pelosi kicks off Antifa.
This is why leftism deserves no support.
War on Women
Why do Leftists think violence from their side will help their causes and bring more votes? Would it not be the opposite?
There is no reason it should even occur to this guy that it was okay to grab a woman by the throat because she supported his opponent. I have heard nothing about this man being identified or arrested. 4CHAN Brothers, I have a job for you....
I don’t think it will if the democrats get their butts handed to them.
And if they cheat their way in, we’re screwed.
Unless there is some manhood shown by those republicans in office, this looks like it could br a lose/lose situation for us.
Time for more people to carry and fear for their lives, I’m afraid.
As I said, the violence was wrong.
However, the young lady was NOT SMART to walk into the center of these Dems and start protesting less than an arm’s distance away. If you’re going to kick the Hornet’s Nest, don’t be standing right there when they come after you.
The DNC's media shills have been inciting violence and undermining reality for years now, and should be arrested, tried, convicted, sentenced...
I think the ratcheting up of rhetoric against us, including the Nazi references, is laying the groundwork for the leftists running elections to engage in uprecedented shenanigans to nullify any contests that don’t go their way in the name of “saving democracy.”
Oppressing women and minorities while being an old white male is clearly A-OK so long as you’re a Democrat.

Not all the left. Just the Demonicrats.
"Legendary financial and geopolitical cycle analyst Martin Armstrong says, “The cheating in the midterm election next week is going to be so great that it is almost impossible to make a prediction. . . . In a fair midterm election, the Republicans would win the House and the Senate.”"
"The United States will not exist after 2032. After 2028 and 2029, we are going to have to redesign a government from scratch. America is being destroyed. "
Democrats choking blacks. You can take the demoncrap out of the klan, but you can’t take the klan out of the demoncrap.
Is that what this is about? You think?
