GOP senator says wife received video of beheading after Kavanaugh vote
The Hill ^ | 0/07/18 | MORGAN GSTALTER

Posted on 10/07/2018 11:35:17 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.) said on Sunday that his wife received a graphic text message with video of a beheading shortly after he voted to confirm Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh.

Gardner told Fox News That his wife received the threatening message on Saturday, just hours after the Senate confirmed Kavanaugh on a 50-48 vote.

The Colorado Republican also said someone posted the names and addresses of his family members online.

Gardner is the latest GOP lawmaker to be targeted with the intimidation tactic known as “doxxing” in recent weeks.

Jackson Cosko, a former Democratic aide, was arrested last week for allegedly posting the private information of several Republican senators online.

Capitol Police began investigating the trend late last month after the Wikipedia pages of unidentified senators were edited without their permission to include their restricted personal data like home addresses and personal cell phones.

Three of the GOP senators targeted — Orrin Hatch (Utah), Mike Lee (Utah) and Lindsey Graham (S.C.) — all serve on the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The anonymous Wikipedia edits were made while the committee was questioning Kavanaugh about sexual assault allegations made against him.

Cosko, who had been working as an intern for Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas), has been fired.

Now that the politicians are the targets, maybe something will change.

Maybe, just maybe, they will realize what their weak, spineless leadership has inflicted on us and hopefully, the arrests, prosecutions, and sentencing of people for these crimes will really begin to happen.

That’s awesome. Keep it up dems. You are making every fence sitting congressman hate you. You are making the American people see you as mobsters.

Yup

Part of the problem as to why we can’t get into a physical fight with these bastards is because most of us have good jobs, and can’t afford to lose said jobs. I had to pass a federal background check for my job, so I’m not keen on the idea of losing it. Although thumping the skull of these treasonous SOB’s sounds tempting.

I guess when you work as a tenured professor, Starbucks barista or get laid out via the Soros fund, you can afford a criminal record.

That all said, I hate these people with a seething passion.

This sounds like a terrorist threat.

Where's the NSA and the FBI on this?

Isn't this why they told us to give up some of our privacy rights. Given that, these threats should be easily trackable.

Yet nothing happens.

What did I forget? My list is growing

Being locked in a room and forced to hear continuous looped recordings of Maxine Waters, Sheila Jackson Lee, and Kamala Harris. A fate worse than death, I'm sure.

Where is Pelosi’s tearful appeal to stop this? This sounds much more threatening than the Teapartyers.

You forgot the list of things we are doing in retaliation. Oh wait, that’s nothing. Not one damn thing.

Yet.

Violence is ok if you’re hurting lesser beings like anyone on the right. They aren’t really humans.

Says the party of tolerance.

Contact the Department of Homeland Security. Report the threats. Ask that the assets of the Democrat National Committee be frozen, citing Executive Order #13224, by designating the DNC a terrorist group.

They’ve always felt protected from their votes/actions. I say good. I want them all afraid. Republicans and Democrats. Maybe then they’ll get an idea of what the real world people have to deal with on a daily basis.

I agree with Desert. By all means, left tards. Bring it on. You’ll find out REAL quick how sharp we make our horns.

The violence is almost 100% perpetrated by the leftists, the statists, those who insist the government be the regulator of our social and economic outcomes.

Any violence brought upon what the left considers its “enemies” (for instance, I recall the black man in the Tea Party who was punched in the face by a union member or the young lady in Toronto who was roundhouse kicked recently because she is pro-life) needs to be addressed REAL QUICK by law enforcement and if the LEOs aren’t going to do it, then those of us who are willing to do so should make sure they receive justice.
