    US senators on Tuesday condemned threats of violence against the FBI, blaming former president Donald Trump for a barrage of abuse against federal agents in the month since a raid at his south Florida beach club.

    The resolution came a month after agents found thousands of pages of documents, including dozens marked "secret" or "top secret," at Mar a Lago, where Trump has lived since leaving office in 2020.

    Trump, who has accused the FBI of bias against him since early in his presidency, has railed against the "illegal" raid, which was approved by a magistrate who agreed there was likely evidence of law-breaking at the resort involving mishandling of White House documents.

    "I have repeatedly made clear that violence against law enforcement is never -- never -- acceptable, no matter what ideology motivates it," said Dick Durbin, the Democratic chairman of the powerful judiciary committee.


    "But here is the reality: in the past month, following the FBI's execution of a search warrant at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, the FBI has faced a flood of threats against its employees and its facilities -- and these threats have been egged on by the former president and his allies."

    you can talk about whatever the F “flood” of threats even means just as soon as you post all your previous condemnations against Democrats on

    1) shooting up a baseball field of republicans
    2) attempted assassination of Brett Kavanaugh
    3) increase in actual targeting of law enforcement officers instead of just letters in the mail by black criminals aka your culture warriors that you make sure get out of prison asap to go kill more police officers

    And after you do that, please explain to the class how mail is more deadly than actual and attempted killing.

    looks like you’ve got a lot of work to do. Get to it.

    I suggest you speak with the 100s of federal prisoners that are there due to their actions on 1/6. They have stated for the record it was because of Trump.

    And the judge who granted the search warrant is receiving tons of anti-semitic trash mail.

    This was discussed on thread:
    Florida sees sharp rise in white power, anti-Semitic incidents (+50%)

    "Florida judge who approved FBI search of Mar-a-Lago faces barrage of antisemitic online attacks"

    No more spoon-feeding of information already discussed

    Meanwhile another insane leftist murdered a Republican, this time in North Dakota. This is what real political terrorism looks like. Democrats are now openly murdering conservatives. Democrats are responding to Biden's calls for violence against their political opponents. Rhetoric matters and when the President calls all his political opponents fascist, this of course is the expected result. Biden's big sloppy mouth got this kid killed.

    You think you're going to make someone cry?

    The political movement you support and the ex-POTUS you voted for is publicly attacking law enforcement and MAGAs are threatening them.

    And you come on my thread and make me believe that it's not that bad?

    What do you think he is doing when he says there will be 'problems' like 'we've never seen' if he's indicted?

    Of course he is egging them on.

    All the Conservatives' reprehensible actions are always justified because in the parallel reality in which you live the Liberals do worse.

    Yet 58% of Americans (25% of Republicans) see Trump/MAGA as a threat to democracy.

    Aren't you ashamed of that, just a little?

    Democrats continue to tell us how afraid they are of Trump winning without telling us how afraid they are of Trump winning. I'd love to know what scares you so bad about freedom for all, but I know you won't tell me.

    Have you even seen any of the threats mentioned above, or seen any type of link to Trump regarding them, or is this just one more thread started by a democrat who see's something negative about Trump and runs with it as if it's gospel? My money's on the latter. The patriotism Trump brought back to this nation isn't going anywhere and it doesn't matter how hard the left kick & scream about it or try to pass it off as a threat to democracy. One would have to be mentally imbalanced to think MAGA is truly a threat to democracy.

    Like simple research, the above is too demanding for a democrat. They prefer hearing something and repeating it, no proof necessary, and adding a little more theatrical flair to each repost.

    Tells me people are sick of a tyrannical government openly and blatantly making things up as they go and trying to imprison or stop their political opponents by any means necessary.

    What did you think Harris was doing when she said "They’re not gonna stop […] this is a movement I’m telling you, they’re not gonna stop. And everyone beware, because they’re not gonna stop, they’re not gonna stop before election day in November, and they’re not gonna stop after election day […] and everyone should take note of that on both levels, that they’re not gonna let up, and they should not, and we should not."

    And don't lie to me and tell me this was strictly about protests. I know, you know, Harris knows, and America knows that all of these "protests" turned violent every time, and stores weren't just looted, but burned down.

    58% of Americans consider Trump/MAGA movement a threat to democracy.

    His incitement of hatred against the FBI is only part of his immense danger.

    You're welcome to believe that poll if you want to. You're going to be disappointed in the end when you find out that the poll only consists of about 1,000 people. You, nor that poll, know what the other 340 million think.

    The threat to the FBI is from within. They are useless. They could and should go away and our nation would be safer.

    We know you don't give a damn about the lives of ordinary Americans. You care only about the lives and power of the globalist elite. This is odd given that their aims include the complete annihilation of the American middle class and the institution of a caste system which puts you on the very bottom. I would ask you why you came to this worldview but the reason is obvious. Every MSM outlet, every TV show, every commercial and every social media outlet is manufacturing your consent. Propaganda works. Within a decade, it would be completely unsurprising to see all dissenting political opinion scrubbed from the internet via hate speech laws enacted by a global cabal and the people will clapping like seals for it. Freedom apparently dies with the clapping of the clueless oppressed.

    And the Biden rhetoric is also starting to take it's toll. The violence against Republicans is growing at an alarming rate.
