Bomb threats made against Trump cabinet nominees

By warmongers I mean the ones who want us all to wage a war against Putin. ;)
Putin is the one who is waging war by starting and continuing an unprovoked invasion. So he and his supporters/apologists are the warmongers, not the victims fighting to defend their land, lives, and liberty. Innocent Ukrainian civilians have been tortured, raped, and murdered - including children; but you want to brush that under the rug for the sake of some twisted despot fetish.

It is what it is. Near everything that happens some here either say MAGA's did or MAGA's caused it.

Well, violently unhinged people do tend lean MAGA more often than they lean Democrat.

I mean look at your track record: Jan. 6, trying to kidnap Gov. Whitmer, Kyle Rittenhouse (not just for shooting up a protest, but being embraced as a darling by the MAGA crowd for shooting up a protest), Cliven Bundy's standoffs with the BLM, the Pizzagate guy, etc., etc.

Stochastic violence is one of the MAGA mob's favourite things.

Now... I think it's entirely possible that MAGA types weren't behind these threats, but considering the possibility that they did utter them is kinda like looking over at the neighbourhood pickpocket when someone's wallet goes missing.

Violent unhinged people, let see
Antifa
BLM
Weather Underground
Animal Liberation Group
Earth Liberation Front

And yes I admit that far right groups do exist and are more apt to cause fatalities; however both far right and far left extremist groups do exist. In addition in the past couple of years the vitriol of the left has far exceeded that on the right. When the airwaves are filled with the vitriol of the left media and senior members of the democrat party contributing, someone or many are going to beleive what they are saying and try to eliminate the threat. I blame the left for what is going on, maybe not directly but there is a cause and effect.
Any action taken against a member of the government is a terriost and Gitmo is open.

Any examples of them being violent or unhinged?


Weather Underground
Animal Liberation Group
Earth Liberation Front

I notice you had to go back 50+ years to find these examples.

The Weather Underground disbanded in 1977, and they were Marxists, not Democrats. But maybe you're so far off in the extremist right that you can't tell the difference?

(Also, seeing how you're one of the people who freak out whenever someone mentions fascism or neo-Nazis in the context of MAGA, it seems pretty hypocritical for you to try to lump Marxists and Democrats together)

And yes I admit that far right groups do exist and are more apt to cause fatalities; however both far right and far left extremist groups do exist.

I didn't say they didn't. But what's the ratio? 20 to 1, maybe?

In addition in the past couple of years the vitriol of the left has far exceeded that on the right.

Nonsense.

Have you ever been to a town or county council meeting? If anyone's spewing vitriol, it's right wingers ranting about 15 minute cities or Haitian refugees.

What vitriol do you think the airwaves are "filled with" that isn't true?

Any action taken against a member of the government is a terriost and Gitmo is open.

Glad to hear that you've taken a position that's more reasonable than many of your allies.

Who will be the first to blame this on MAGA's?

Its sad these things happen.

I guess this is Trump's fault for making bad choices :rolleyes:

Bomb threats made against Trump cabinet nominees

"Several of Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees and picks for his White House team have been targeted by bomb threats.

The FBI said it was aware of "numerous bomb threats" as well as "swatting incidents", in which hoax calls are made to attract a police response to the target's home.

Threats were made against Trump's choices to lead the departments of Housing, Agriculture and Labor, as well as his pick for US ambassador to the United Nations.

Police are investigating the incidents, which happened on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning..."


If you truly followed the news objectively, you would know that it's happening both ways.

One interesting aspect to swatting Trump's nominees...
Trump plans toincrease the cops' immunity from civil suits.
If SWAT teams kill innocents, victims might be unable to sue.
In the past, Trump has even called for death of innocents.
He just never imagined that it would apply to his own tribe.
