WASHINGTON — A Pennsylvania man was arrested and charged with making threats against the FBI on the right-wing social media website Gab after special agents searched former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate last week.
Adam Bies was charged with influencing, impeding or retaliating against a federal law enforcement official after the social media exploitation team in the FBI's National Threat Operations Section referred a tip about a Gab post by the user "BlankFocus." The user, according to an FBI affidavit, posted that employees of the bureau deserved to die.
“I'm ready for the inevitable. Once you accept reality for what it is instead of what you want or to be, you can move on with your life and get prepared for the inevitable outcome. I already know I’m going to die at the hands of these piece of s--- child molesting law enforcement scumbags," Bies wrote, according to authorities. "My only goal is to kill more of them before I drop. I will not spend one second of my life in their custody.”
Records show that Bies was taken into custody. Federal prosecutors are requesting that he be held until trial.

“I will not spend one second of my life in their custody.”
Records show that Bies was taken into custody.
She’s about to learn what that word means.
I wonder if she will speak so highly of that word when she loses?
Those who act, do not talk.
What about all of the threats made against Clarence Thomas, Trump, etc.?
.........crickets.......
Adam Bies is a 'she'?
I guess anything is possible these days.
Note that the left made copious threat and physical attacks against federal agents and national guardsmen during the months of 2020 anarchy, with hardly a response.
This is exactly what the leftists wanted to happen. They are just goading people and looking for excuses to send their jackboots after them.
Is the First Amendment no longer in use in this country?
Talk on social media is just that, talk.
I don’t even see a direct threat in the rant.
I’ve seen worse right here on Free Republic.
Wait, he was arrested for a post?
They are cowards hiding behind a criminal Justice department.
True, and why we need to be a bit more circumspect in our conversation. At this moment we no longer live the Republic of the USA. They have quashed the most important of amendments.
File this away under “Useful Information to Remember.” Apparently there’s such a thing as a “social media exploitation team in the FBI’s National Threat Operations Section.” Taxpayers are paying FBI analysts to prowl through social media for a living! Reminds me of the movie “Minority Report” which I never thought would happen in America. Dangerous times for all of us. 🤬
That was about Cheney.
I don’t know how my comment got into this thread.
They can say President Trump needs to be executed, but we, apparently, have no right to answer in like manner regarding them.
Per the article “The user, according to an FBI affidavit, posted that employees of the bureau deserved to die.”
Interpretation: He made a few of their agents uncomfortable. One even cried. He hurt their feelings with his words. This is now a crime in the FJB administration. However....this is just another attempt to goad more people to act against them. They want this. We need to be patient. The midterms are coming soon enough. They are desperate and losing.
Agree. We can wait. (Given the current circumstances, that may change)
Exactly. And like the threats made by BLM, Antifa, and even Chuck Schumer, they don't count.
In 1814, British general Ross had a successful invasion of DC with around 4500 men. Not sure if you'd need more or less today. True the technology is different, but so many in the gov are working from home.
Per wiki:
"He had four infantry battalions, a battalion of Royal Marines, a force of about 200 men of the Corps of Colonial Marines, which was composed of locally recruited black refugees from slavery, a rocket detachment from the Royal Marines battalion, 50 Royal Sappers and Miners, 100 gunners from the Navy and 275 sailors to carry supplies. His force totaled 4,370 men, with one 6-pounder gun, two 3-pounder guns and sixty launchers, each being attached to a Congreve rocket."
