Time to arrest the people who leaked the names of the Electors, too. And I call BS on Pelosi’s daughter’s claim that she has had death threats. Why would she be getting death threats when she will obviously vote for Hillary and Hillary lost???

"Where’s Lynch and her DOJ?"

Busy writing threatening emails and making death threats by phone to the electors.

And the States could get the IP addresses from the emails, couldn’t they? Death threats are not to be taken lightly......each email writer should be indicted for each threat against any Elector.

After Trump is inaugurated, I’d love to see the Dept. of Justice investigate every threat against an Elector, and jail people where appropriate. Threatening someone is NOT free or political speech, it is a crime - and, in this case, is a crime intended to corrupt the political system.

Electors around the country are being harassed with a barrage of emails, phone calls and letters — and even death threats — in an effort to block Donald Trump from being voted in as president

In other words....by TOLERANT LIBERALS!

These are state matters and people should have already been arrested. Vigilance in selecting local and state pols would have prevented this.

I don’t hope they keep it up. These electors are being harassed mercilessly.

What I do hope is that their local law enforcement agencies are taking it seriously. We know that Lynch won’t do her job.

Arrests and prosecutions need to happen.

Despite the avalanche, she said, her decision to back Trump is stronger than ever.


Psssst. This is what happened to a lot of us ex-nevertrumpers. The more the REAL enemy attacked him, the more we supported him.

One of the reasons Trump won was that it was so painfully obvious the MSM was in the tank for Hillary.

In this is also why I find this whole “change the electors vote” issue an exercise in high comedy. These electors are individual human beings with lives just like us. The only way ANY of them are changing their vote is if they are, like the guy in texas, a sleeper for the left, or honestly afraid for their lives. It won’t be enough.

So I’m watching this like I watch a movie.

They don't care that Hillary is a criminal, or about the lack of ethics demonstrated in the DNC emails leaked by Wikileaks. They don't care about anything except getting their way.

Where’s Lynch and her DOJ?

You really need a sarcasm tag on that.

She's currently pre-occupied with sending out resumes.

Threats against members of the Electoral College are probably a federal crime. I am confident that Obama’s “Justice” Department is doing everything in response that we expect from Barack Hussein’s followers. I hope President Trump’s Justice Department will also do everything we expect. I’d like to see all terrorists in prison, and attempting to accomplish political goals through violence or the threat of violence is terrorism.

Voting Rights Act of 1965:

Section 11. Section 11(a) prohibits any person acting under color of law from refusing or failing to allow a qualified person to vote or to count a qualified voter's ballot. Similarly, Section 11(b) prohibits any person from intimidating, harassing, or coercing another person for voting or attempting to vote.[43] Two provisions in Section 11 address voter fraud: Section 11(c) prohibits people from knowingly submitting a false voter registration application to vote in a federal election, and Section 11(e) prohibits voting twice in a federal election.

Yep, federal crime. Of course, Barack Hussein Obama and his followers don’t care.

I hope that President Trump’s Attorney General will prosecute every one of those terrorists to the fullest extent of the law. Using threats and intimidation to achieve political aims is terrorism, and the thugs responsible belong in prison for a very long time, along with those engaged in vote fraud.
