Short (and sweet) answer: no, no,no,no.

Better yet: “don’t do it, don’t think about it, do normal things before that.”

Didn’t your Mama tell you NEVER PUT ANYTHING IN WRITING??? Still and all, I don’t think this warrants 10 fking years when that treasonous bastid Manafort gets 7…Maybe instead of all the ratfkin’ the Congress has been involved in over the years, they should work on the legal code for a while…

Perhaps she might reflect during her lengthy and deserved prison sentence on whether making credible threats against politicians you don’t like is an appropriate way to exercise political discourse.

Yep. The best threats are the kind that sets up a fundraising site or the candidate who runs against Collins. Election threats. Not terror threats. Ever.

From the headline, I imagined this woman sent a letter to Sen. Collins expressing her deep concern about something, which the Senator naturally found threatening.

Anyone want to put odds on whether Muscara has been sexually abused somewhere along the line?

The only valid threat is “we are sick and tired of your fake posturing, and we are going to throw you out in the next election.”

I suppose the difference is starch in the mail, and starch in the collar.

Obviously not a rich, white man, so prosecutors will be asking for the max.
