What did he say about her. I want to say the same thing and see if the police show up at my house.

Wentz said he was ‘really shaken up’ by what happened. The California Highway Patrol cops left their card behind

He claims the cops said they had received a call from Capitol Police that he had ‘threatened’ the New York congresswoman. They left him their card but took no further action.

‘The officers said, “We got a warning about a sitting member of Congress. And it was because of your tweet, which tagged them in it.”

‘And then they just wouldn’t back down from this accusation that I threatened to kill her,’ he told The Gray Zone.

Wentz then posted on Twitter that he could only assume the tweet they were referring to was one where he called AOC’s comments on Israel and Palestine ‘underwhelming’.

Capitol Police have not disclosed who reported him to them, and AOC’s office told FOX that it was not them.

They told FOX that it was not because of a tweet he wrote, but one he was tagged in though they have not disclosed the contents of that tweet.

AOC’s office denied reporting it and say they are now looking into it.

They have in the past said they forward all threats that she receives – or what they perceive to be threats – to Capitol police.

Wentz told The Gray Zone that he thought the officers were purely trying to intimidate him and silence the right.

‘If this was like a purely intimidation thing then I guess it did its job. It’s not comforting to be on the receiving end of that.

‘But at the same time, they’re not going to shut the left up.’

Tucker Carlson fumed on his FOX show on Friday night that it is the latest in a string of examples of the left trying to censor conservative voices.


It does not appear to be “what” he said. It was about intimidating the criticism in general.
