Resistance Makes Rape Threat to Susan Collins Staffer over Kavanaugh Vote

Buried under no fewer than ten paragraphs and the anodyne headline, “Interest Groups Turn Up Pressure on Senators Before Kavanaugh Vote,” the far-left New York Times finally gets to the meat of the story with the news that Collins and her staffers are facing “threats” and “vulgar language” from the left-wing Resistance, all of this in the hope of intimidating Collins to vote against Kavanaugh’s confirmation.

...According to Collins, she is also facing a form of blackmail from a left-wing activist who raised $1 million in a crowd funding campaign. If Collins votes to confirm Kavanaugh, the activist is threatening to release the money to whoever challenges Collins in 2020.

“This quid pro quo fund-raising campaign appears to be the equivalent of an attempt to bribe me,” Collins said in an emailed statement to the Times. “Attempts at bribery or extortion will not influence my vote at all.”

When will “Justice” come down hard on these criminals? Enough is enough.

Seems the DS is pulling out all the stops. RINOs and Leftist pubbies will have no cover for their political posturing as in the past. The battle lines have been drawn clearly by POTUS!

One is either for America and our Constitutional Republic or against Her!

I pray for sen Collins and her staff’s safety, she must now choose. I pray she chooses wisely, these people may be stupid, doesn’t mean they are not dangerous.

MAGA! WWG1WGA!

Like they wouldn’t donate to the challenger even if she complied. How is this ugly left allowed to exist?

The threats alone should push her to vote for Kavanaugh. Does she really want antics types to win?
