- A suspicious package addressed to Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters was intercepted at a House mail facility, two sources told CBS News."
Although only a handful of threats were delivered to individuals most all the explosive packages were sent through the mail, exposing countless postal employees to danger with one package ending up at CNN causing newsroom evacuation. It's believed there may be other pipe bomb packages enroute.
Lock her up. Lock her up. The Democrats are a mob. They want open borders and to let criminals in. Democrats create mobs, Republicans create jobs.
Senator Diane Feinstein held onto a letter from Dr. Christine Blasey Ford for a month. Lock her up, lock her up.
Just some of the incendiary words uttered by Trump and his followers at rallies around the nation. Lies and calls to hostile aggressive action are devastating to the nation.
"In Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on the day of the Iowa caucuses, for instance, he {Trump} told audience members he would pay their legal fees if they engaged in violence against protesters". "If you see somebody getting ready to throw a tomato, knock the crap out of them, would you? Seriously, OK? Just knock the hell ... I promise you I will pay for the legal fees. I promise, I promise," he said on Feb. 1, 2016--
"At a Las Vegas rally later that month, he said security guards were too gentle with a protester. "He's walking out with big high-fives, smiling, laughing," Trump said. "I'd like to punch him in the face, I'll tell you." "A similar situation unfolded at a rally that month in Warren, Michigan.' "Get him out," he said of a protester. "Try not to hurt him. If you do, I'll defend you in court. Don't worry about it."
Trump has claimed that Democrats have "openly invited" illegal immigrants to the border, that they want "open borders" and "want caravans, they like the caravans".
He is stoking fear in the hearts of his stalwart followers. He tells untruths as easily as water flows over Niagara Falls.
The danger to the people of our great nation are not only the lies, but the fomenting of deep hatred against fellow citizens based solely on differing political opinions.
There have always been extremists. Now however, we have a President who appears to be intentionally riling up his constituency through the use of GASLIGHTING.
His followers (many of whom only get their "news" on Fox) believe everything POTUS says.
Alarmingly, it seems that Donald Trump gets much of his information from Fox News. It's a vicious circle.
Examining it in greater depth, the danger is at least two-fold.
First, the incitement to riot and the entitlement to violence Trump followers feel based upon his words.
On the other side of the spectrum are those who are anxious, distressed, depressed and demoralized with what is happening in our nation. Many are scared. Lots are tuning out the news. (click on page 3)
