SECRET SERVICE Looking Into “Comedian” Kathy Griffin Over Trump Picture
American Lookout ^ | 5/30/17 | Ryan Saavedra

The United States Secret Service is looking into “comedian” Kathy Griffin, who is now considered by some to be a domestic terrorist…

ABC News reported:

Comedian Kathy Griffin has apologized for a photo of herself holding what appears to be a bloody, decapitated fake head of President Trump, despite sweeping bi-partisan disapproval of the image.

The photo, taken by celebrity photographer Tyler Shields, was posted by Griffin and Shields Tuesday to their social media accounts.

“I caption this ‘there was blood coming out of his eyes, blood coming out of his … wherever,'” Griffin tweeted, referring to an exchange between Donald Trump and former Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly during the primary season.

But in an attempt to appease those who were offended by the image, the controversial comedienne then tweeted, “OBVIOUSLY, I do not condone ANY violence by my fans or others to anyone, ever! I’m merely mocking the Mocker in Chief.”

But the image caught the attention of the U.S. Secret Service. Initially, the federal law enforcement agency did not directly cite the image in any of its tweets, but in response to Twitter users tweeting the image at its account, the Secret Service tweeted Tuesday afternoon, “On it! @SecretService has a robust protective intelligence division that monitors open source reporting & social media to evaluate threats.”

And an hour later, the agency tweeted, “Threats made against @SecretService protectees receive the highest priority of all of our investigations. #ProtectionNeverRests.”

I don’t think the left has a definition of treason and subversion.

Anyone with half a brain cell could have seen a stunt like that would get them into a lot of trouble. The left is so blinded by hate, however, they miss the simplest things.

The next MOAB bomb should have her tied to it with the saying:

With Love from America...maybe we could even put John McCain on there with her...

What a misleading headline -- the story doesn't support the headline. Has the Secret Service mentioned Griffin at all?

A complete waste of time, taxpayer dollars, and Secret Service resources. Kathy Griffin is a threat to nobody but her own career.

That schlock “photographer” Tyler Shields should also be under investigation, if you ask me. I’m sure Tyler and Kathy would make great roommates in Gitmo.

Let’s be serious here...

They always say they “obviously didn’t mean any harm” but if, God forbid, something actually happen to President Trump, you’re going to tell me they wouldn’t be dancing in the streets?

It isn’t that its just an image of Trump. It is a deliberate affront to those families who ever had a loved one beheaded or tortured to death by these isis islamist cockroaches.

And do the democrats support it? A bunch of them were supposed to appear with her in the near future.

What astonishes me is how incredibly STUPID this was.

In a world where a child makes a piece of toast into the shape of a gun,and gets in trouble,she does THIS?
