Leftist Nick Gates arrested for threatened kidnap, burn & murder Ted Cruz and father
Fire Andrea Mitchell ^ | 6/18/2013 | staff

The corrupt liberal media, and Democrats have gone into full smear mode ever since Ted Cruz was elected to the U.S. Senate last year. The left fears Ted Cruz like no other Republican in decades. Chris Matthews in particular has been ruthless. A leftist in Houston identified as Nick Gates was arrested for threatening to kidnap, burn, and murder Ted Cruz and his father unless he paid him $3 million. Nick Gates identified himself as Abolfazi Akbori, so he may be a Muslim convert. Abolfazi Akbori comes from Sheila Jackson Lee’s district in Houston and obviously was missed by Obama’s NSA spying. Calls were made to Cruz’s Austin and San Antonio offices. during the week of June 5th. Nick Gates or Muslim named Abolfazi Akbori said “Sen. Cruz owed him money or a bomb would explode.” Sounds like a terrorist to me. Great job NSA!

I have yet to see a photo of this goon in all the articles I’ve read about the incident. What does that mean?

This guy needs to find out that the law applies to the political Left as well as the political Right.

You’d think that even high ranking democrats would know that allowing people to get away with kind of thing undermines them too. Do they really think that the moment they are not socialist enough for this guy that he would spare them?

Upon further investigation, FBI agents in Austin learned that agents in Houston were investigating Gates for “threatening the life of a Houston based FBI agent.”

Authorities also learned that Federal Protective Services Houston had an open case on Gates for “sending inappropriate emails and making inappropriate phone calls” to the U.S. Citizens and Immigration Services case worker who handled his immigration case.

FBI agents interviewed Gates at his Houston apartment on June 10. The FBI says Gates told them that he had spent 12 days in the Harris County Mental Health Center.

Court documents state Gates had a previous felony conviction for attempted retaliation after he threatened a Houston police officer that arrested him for drunk driving.  

Officials said all of Sen. Cruz’s Texas offices, as well as his office in Washington, D.C., were made aware of Gates’ history and were given his photograph.

This guy threatened to kidnap and kill a US Senator and his family and the judge set his bond at $10,000? The Senator is a Tea Party supported Conservative Republican so that’s about right.

I opened your link and a big picture appeared of who I thought was the suspect.
And I thought, dang, he looks just like Cruz. Then I realized it was Cruz.

Perhaps they are saving up that revelation for a rainy day.
