Gaetz: Death threats surge, and FBI ‘more interested’ in those against Democrats
MSN ^ | January 25, 2021 | Paul Bedard

Death threats against lawmakers have been surging since the election, but a key House Republican and ally of former President Donald Trump said that the FBI is “more interested” in checking those against Democrats.

“We're averaging several threats per day,” said Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz.

In a media call to discuss his upcoming trip to Wyoming to campaign against House GOP leader Rep. Liz Cheney, who voted to impeach Trump, Gaetz said that there has been a “substantial increase of death threats” against members.

Gaetz decried any violence but suggested that the FBI has favored investigating threats against Democrats over Republicans.

We now live in a fascistic state.

Stay off social media and talk politics only to those few whom you trust.

Do the `German glance’ (look over both shoulders) before speaking in public.

And never, ever, criticize Islam or muzzies.

The main difference is the left has a track record of violence and destruction.
And its been exhibited countless times ..if they can’t find an example of injustice they will make one up.
We are suppose to believe the so called left are about fairness,integrity and justice..oh, and the little guy.

Time to divide this country into two nations! Destroy the DC swamp once and for all. This nation is NOT and never will be united by any means anymore. Let the blue states stay with their blue and let the red states unite and create their own country. America’s best days are behind her it’s time to move on. The invasion of this nation by thousands upon thousands of illegal immigrants which includes the most ruthless evil cartels are making their way to our country. Just look at what’s going on in Los Angeles right now. They will fight for the Democrats it will get bloody and will end this country if they are allowed in. Believe me I know what I talkth, my town is a sister city to the most notorious killing spree cartel in Mexico. And that is only Mexico’s bloody cartels..we haven’t even touched the mobs that are coming from el Salvador, Honduras etc... who do you think is in the mix of those huge caravans heading our way? Just a warning folks just a ⚠️! Just a little preview two days ago they found a pick up truck with nine bodies burnt to the crisp that is how evil demonic blood thirsty merciless nothing gets in their way killing spree. They are rampant in Mexico and if you don’t pay up they will come in and kill your whole family. They’re ruthless EVILLLLLL and extremely dangerous....I guarantee you the FBI the DOJ, The corrupt law-enforcement and probably liberal globalist antichristian judges etc. will befriend those killers to eliminate the conservatives and Christians! Don’t snicker it could become reality! We are living in an unprecedented twilight zone period in history.

The FBI is nothing more than the democrat party fixers. From janitor to director the whole organization is a sewer filled with liars and crooks. Every damn one of them. They don’t investigate to solve crimes, they investigate to erase the crimes of democrats.

“We” American drug users are feeding our own demise. With billions of $$ moving back and forth across our borders, the temptation is too great for so many, and they then just “go with the flow”. Perhaps what needs to be done, is that a portion of the captured money is fed back to the police units directly involved. Something needs to be done to ensure that the temptation “to turn” is mitigated as much as possible. There is no reason to expect that the same type of corruption south of the border will be ineffectual against our protectors on this side of the border.

They leave out the Bernie Sanders campaign worker who shot Rep Scalise and three others, and wanted to assassinate Republican members of Congress.

Big miss in my book.

And the gigantic mystery still remains - the Las Vegas massacre and what was the motivation?

I don’t see how this qualifies as “news”.

The FBI is a branch of the DNC.
