A Texas woman has been charged with threatening to kill the judge overseeing a criminal case against Donald Trump.
Abigail Jo Shry, 43, allegedly called US District Judge Tanya Chutkan a “stupid slave” and used another racial slur in a voicemail message she left at the Washington courthouse.
She is reported to have said: “You are in our sights, we want to kill you… If Trump doesn’t get elected in 2024, we are coming to kill you, so tread lightly, b----.
“You will be targeted personally, publicly, your family, all of it.”
The article also includes an expectation meeting mugshot. For people that talk about violence, I’ve never been less intimidated.
Republican officials, even after the insurrection, are using violent rhetoric. This is deliberate. They want the crazies from their party to engage in terrorism.
This is a party who wouldn’t even impeach and remove Trump after a violent coup.
It’s insanity that we’re not treating these people like the full-blown fascists they keep showing us they are.
That entire party needs to be purged from every level of government.
People who still call themselves Republicans after the coup are a disgrace. They are traitors.
Republican officials, even after the insurrection, are using violent rhetoric.
Stochastic terrorism.
Good, now do the same to the turds threatening violence to the jurors
I’m sure they will. It just takes a little time to drive all the way out to bumblefuck and figure out which cousin was using the trailer park communal Commodore 64 at the time.
Don’t disparage the Commodore 64. It was actually a TI-99/4a.
A TI-99/4. The extra “a” at the end was too expensive.
That shouldn’t be hard just turn up with cardboard cutouts of the various jurors and see which one is fooled and runs out with a shotgun.
My favorite part,
“The 43-year-old said she had no intention of going to Washington to carry out her threats, before adding: “If Shelia Jackson Lee comes to Alvin [a city in Texas], then we need to worry.””
How fucking stupid can you be to say this AFTER you’ve been arrested?
30% of Republicans believe violence may be necessary to “save” the country.
They legitimately don’t think it’s an issue to threaten violence against anyone who impedes Donald Trump. In their deluded minds, he’s an innocent victim who only wants what’s best for the country and all these evil judges and persecutors and federal employees are trying to take him down and literally destroy the country.
This is what you get when you allow people with power and influence lie all the time
Yes, we need freedom of speech, blah.
You don’t have true freedom of speech, not even in the US, this article literally shows that
We need more restrictions on speech. If you’re a politician and you obviously lie then you need to be at least called out on that, and be forced to correct yourself publicly. Maybe some naming and shaming will make politicians slightly more honest.
All politicians lie up to some point and it’s been tolerable and tolerated for a long time but Trump weaponised disinformation and lying. This needs to stop, those in power need to be held accountable. If you’re the president and you startte spouting proven conspiracy theories then you need to either be forced to correct yourself and say you were staying dishonest information or you need to leave.
Freedom of speech, but not freedom from consequences of said speech. If you go and say some ish then you better be able to handle the consequences of saying the things you’re saying.
So, like, what do you have then?
What is there to be ‘free’ from?
They’ve been doubling down on stupid their whole life.
How fucking stupid can you be to say this AFTER you’ve been arrested?
Well given what she was arrested for, I can safely assume that thinking is not her strong suit.
I’m not sure it’s necessary to question the intelligence of anyone who is part of the Trump cult. That question answers itself.
Why would they let a woman who threatened to kill a judge oversee trump’s criminal case?
(Sorry. Had to be done)
ah, the ol’ lemmy switch-a-roo.
this link seems to be perpetually broken, gimme a minute…
Yeah, poorly worded. Could have Saud “Judge overseeing Trump’s election case receives death threats, Texas woman charged”
I think that every article on Trump should have the article’s real title and a clear one in parenthesis, it would solve a lot of issues.
I just woke up and that’s how I read it like 3 times in a row
My favorite part is that we have to specify which criminal case in which Donald J Trump is a defendant we’re talking about because there’s THREE OF THEM.
FOUR!
(Not mine): This is only the fourth time in the history of the United States that a former president has been indicted.
That’s what you get when you skip watching the news for a single day. Indictments come at you fast.
I think it’s still three because one of the indictments replaced an earlier one.
Federal: docs in FL, defrauding the US in DC State: hush money in NY , RICO in GA
Given that this doofus is from Texas, guessing the GA one is outside her worldview XD
Pretty much the face I’d expect of someone who would do this.

Those fuckers carry handguns or AR-15s with them, so probably not wise
Anyone can carry guns bro
But they do and the left generally doesn’t.
Remember folks, it’s not okay to (jokingly) threaten violence against things like the NRA convention or the Vatican. Please save your violent threats for judges and jury members of your favorite criminally-charged politicians. Thank you.
But remember everyone, it’s not a cult!!! /s
This is conservatism when it starts to lose
I mean calling a federal judge stupid when you’re making material threats on a recorded line… just saying.
How much meth do you think she’s smoked? I don’t need an exact amount… when you make your estimate, feel free to round up to the nearest ton.
At least 3 catalytic converters worth
METH? A few tons.
Do yous measure the distance between her eyes in inches, feet, or washing machines?
Yes.
Boner-killing material made flesh. Wanna spew shiat to your drinking buddies, have at it. Pop shiat on someone’s answering machine and then say I was just blowing off steam? Nah. Go sit in a cold cell snacking on NutraLoaf for a few years to accrue some common sense.
