Democrat Says Trump ‘Needs to Be Shot’ in Disturbing Verbal Slip
SLAY ^ | June 19, 2023 - 11:02 am | David Hawkins

Democrat U.S. Delegate Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands) went on MSNBC and made a stunning slip of the tongue Sunday.

During an appearance on MSNBC, Plaskett warned that President Donald Trump should “be shot” before quickly correcting her comment to “stopped.”

Plaskett was on “The Sunday Show” to talk about the Democrats’ ongoing politically motivated classified documents case against the 45th president.

She said the latest developments “should be terrifying to all Americans, and [Trump] needs to be shot, stopped.”

Plaskett is a non-voting member of Congress who has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons.

She was previously a Republican and civil servant under former President George W. Bush but joined the Democratic Party in 2008.

Earlier she threatened Twitter files journalist Matt Taibbi with 5 years in jail for allegedly lying to Congress, as Slay News reported.

But Taibbi didn’t lie, she was wrong.

Plaskett sent the threat to Taibbi in a letter, writing:

“This mistake is important because, by adding an ‘A,’ you weren’t making a harmless spelling error. Rather, you were alleging that CISA- a government entity- was working with the EIP [Election Integrity Partnership] to have posts removed from social media.

“When presented with this misinformation, you acknowledged you had made ‘an error’ by intentionally altering the acronym CIS and you subsequently deleted your erroneous tweet.

“Prior to your appearance before the subcommittee on March 9, you signed the Judiciary Committee’s Truth in Testimony form, certifying that you understand that ‘knowingly providing material false information to this committee/subcommittee or knowingly concealing material information from this committee/subcommittee, is a crime (18 U.S.C. 1001).

“In addition, at the beginning of the March 9 hearing, you swore ‘under penalty of perjury that the testimony you [were] about to give [was] true and correct to the best of your knowledge, information, and belief.’

“Under the federal perjury statue, 18 U.S.C. 1621, proving false information is punishable by up to five years imprisonment.”

Remind me how it is always Republicans are blamed for threatening and encouraging violence. When you come out an call for a Presidential candidate to be shot, I thought that the FBI and Secret Service would be paying you a special visit to put you on notice of the crime you just committed.

I guess this is just another example of how laws are applied differently to Democrats than to Republicans.

Sounds like this one was advocating violence against a Presidential candidate.

Probably not much of a jump from Bushite Republican to Obamunist Democroat.
