And a comedienne carries a wooden replica of a severed head of POTUS onto the camera, and everyone bemoans her ruined career. Shakespeare in the Park performs a Julius Caesar including an assassination where Caesar looks just like Trump and the Praetorian Guard like Secret Service agents. Johnny Depp talks about how it’s been a long time since an actor assassinated the President. No consequences for any of them.

I’ll bet, truth be told, MORE REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS RECIEVE MORE CRAZY DEATH THREATS. ONLY THEY ARE STRONG AND DON’T SOIL THEIR PANTS AT THE THREATS.

Is that when the youngster Fidel Castro hoped to be signed by the Cleveland Indians organization?

https://sports.yahoo.com/news/did-fidel-castro-nearly-have-a-career-in-professional-baseball-180833738.html

Funny (and like all of the stories undocumented) story :

In one version of the story, a scout reported of Castro:“Lots of enthusiasm, not much of an arm. Suggest he go into another business.”

In another version, though, various teams were said to have sent some players down for a batting practice to test him (during one of which Castro struck out future Hall-of-Famer Hank Greenberg). According to some versions, Castro was offered a tryout with either the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Washington Senators, or the New York Yankees, but failed to make the cut–and, in bitterness and resentment, became intensely anti-American.

...So where’s the crime?...
-
According to court papers, Lippa left a threatening voicemail
for at Schiff’s Washington D.C. office on Jan. 23 at 8:20 p.m.

“Schiff, Shifty Schiff, you’re the biggest [expletive] scumbag
[expletive] who ever lived. I dare you to come, I dare you to come
to New York, because I will put a bullet in your [expletive] forehead.
You [expletive] scumbag piece of [expletive]. You got that?
And you can look up my phone number. And you think I’m [expletive] joking?
I’ll come to Washington and kill you, you [expletive]”

On Feb. 4, prosecutors say Lippa called Schumer’s Albany office
left another threatening message.

“Hey Schumer, you and Nancy Pelosi are two [expletive] biggest scumbags
who ever lived. And let me tell you something, somebody wants to
assassinate you, I’m going to be the driver. And he’ll shoot you
from 200 yards away. I [expletive] promise you, you [expletive]
totally little [expletive] Democrats scumbag [expletive].”

nothing on why he is upset.
Likely he was upset because the proceedings didn't produce enough for a conviction. He looks like Antifa to me
