"Yes, I know."

So, you're a fed who made the decision not to reach out to Madonna about her remarks?

Legally speaking, there is a difference between speech and a threat. I don't have Madonna's full text, but maybe it did not reach the threshold of a direct threat. But I do know that the guy in this story definitely made several direct threats. So that's all I can comment on.

Madonna’s threat rose to more on an incitement, though. She had hundreds of people cheer when she made the remark, some of whom would be more inclined to follow through. funny that we later had several people try to drive their vehicles into the White House fence during Trump’s administration.

You can Google the video. Her exact words were, “Yes, I am angry. Yes, I am outraged. Yes, I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.”

It was a direct threat in response to Trump being installed as President.

Funny, I don’t recall Madonna being arrested for attempting to overthrow the election.
