All three elected officials are Republicans.

Oh, of course. Threatening to assassinate politicians is a real knee slapper...

Bad move. To the best of my knowledge, doing that is a felony in all 50 states. It may be one of the few cases in which the inevitable “free speech” claim just doesn’t cut it.

And social media didn’t stop her posting like they did me on Facebook. I am working on moving to MeWe and had permanently deleted Twitter and moved to Parler.

she could just sit on them; they’d be just as dead, and she would still have the bullet.

But did they say "Someone should kill him", or did they say "I WILL kill him"

It's the "I will do it" or "I am going to do it" that normally lands a person's ass in prison. The "Someone should do it" is [unfortunately in this case] still protected under the First Amendment.

If she was a Hollywood liberal she’d have been fine. Numerous idiot out there have talked about killing Trump yet they get away with it.
