LISTEN to this death threat against my children. Since the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, Trump, McCarthy, and MAGA Republicans are stoking violent rhetoric against lawmakers and law enforcement. Someone is going to get killed.

1. Needs mental health counseling, obviously.

Sure hope he has no access to auto weapons...

SMDH...

[Nevilledog]

3. It's America, of course he has access to firearms.

[rurallib]

15. after he's jailed

[Bluethroughu]

17. This is what stochastic terrorism sounds like, all these GOP Congress members

Whipping these lunatics up, are unpatriotic conspirators of trump, and they know trump doesn't go down alone. He will take the whole GOP with him.

[Rebl2]

40. He

needs to be arrested for threatening the lives of Swalwell and his family, President Biden, Vice-President Harris and whoever else he threatened. I stopped listening after hearing the President and Vice President names.

[Warpy]

41. AA would probably do him a hell of a lot more good, honestly

That's one thing that recording told me. The other thing is that he's a coward and he knows it, "someone" needs to do the crime, but hey, it aint gonna be him, got too much to lose.

[Walleye]

2. Hell of a vocabulary. And they seem all of a sudden to be obsessed with decapitation

[Hugh_Lebowski]

5. Talibornagains (nt)

[Walleye]

12. Good one

[MuseRider]

18. We do need to

bring that term back I think. I had forgotten that one.

[Hugh_Lebowski]

4. Swalwell is definitely doing things correctly if he's under their motherfucking skin like this (nt)

[Maraya1969]

10. I'm glad he posted this too. Make sure others know they may become famous for their actions

I would love if they can trace this call and then stick the guy's face next to it.

[gratuitous]

6. Well he sounds nice, though his vocabulary is rather limited

I always like it when nitwits accuse others of cowardice while cloaking their identity. Mr. Potty Mouth may find out - to his chagrin - that there are rather sophisticated investigative tools that will identify him.

[Midnight Writer]

7. I think he shot his wad about the 1:36 mark.

[Catherine Vincent]

14. Lol...agree

I thought it was a delay moving on to the next caller but it was still him!

[Sogo]

8. That f-ing m-f'er was on that call a long time; surely someone can trace it?

[Botany]

9. The FBI is going to be knocking on that jerks door very soon

n/t

[marybourg]

11. Good idea to make these public.All

Who receive them should do likewise. A little sunshine is a good disinfectant. .

[Nevilledog]

50. Social media doesn't do enough about threats either

A blue checkmark account tweeted an image that included: "Elias has a rope with his name on it and knows it."

I reported to @TwitterSafety and they said "after reviewing the available information, we want to let you know [account] hasn’t broken our safety policies."

Hi @twittersafety the referenced tweet was threatening violence or physical harm in violation of the User Agreement, the reference to a rope is a reference to a type of murder, murder by hanging, does that clear things up?

13. I hope they find this evil piece of trash

[bucolic_frolic]

20. Sick dude. Can't see how that's not a hate crime

or I don't see why hate crime is restricted to certain types of crimes. I mean there is crime, there is malice, and there is hate.

[IronLionZion]

21. No terrorism here since the caller didn't have any political agenda

[malaise]

22. ThenSlobfather is behind everyone of,the,

Lock him up!

[Habibi]

23. And this asshole, after riling himself up but good,

probably went and punched his own wife and slapped the kids around.

[Marthe48]

26. probably just kicked the dog

I doubt if he could hold on to a woman

[progressoid]

24. This is why I so disagree with Lawrence O'Donnell et. al. downplaying the response from these people

Spend an afternoon listening to AM radio or read online comments from the rabid right.

The trump cult is still going strong and they are just as dangerous as they were Jan 6th.

[sop]

43. Sadly, this imbecile isn't an anomaly, the entire country's crawling with guys just like him.

[progressoid]

49. +1

I saw a Let's go Brandon display at an antique booth yesterday.

[Marthe48]

25. Wonder if the caller goes to church?

Hope Rep. Swalwell and his family stay safe.

[Traildogbob]

28. Yes

They pass poisonous snakes around. And talk in tongues “fuckinguckinfuvkinfuckinfuckinguvkinfuvmin” and best tambourines. As the. UyBull instructs them to. He seems focused and really curious about sucking dicks. A bit too much.

[Marthe48]

34. I thought it was scripted

because he stayed on message till almost the end, then figured his brother/cousin was whispering mores names in his other ear.

[Traildogbob]

36. Sister/wife

[Bev54]

27. Not only is this guy sick sick, he is likely as dumb as most of them and

they will be able to trace this call and put his ass in jail. Bets when he is front of the judge he breaks down in tears.

[JohnnyRingo]

29. I can't imagine being driven to that level of rage over politics

Though 2024 isn't here yet. LOL

[Denvermosaic]

30. His dear leader is not yet arrested and he's already losing it

[DFW]

31. What's the big deal? This sounds like typical Republican discourse to me.

Nothing out of the ordinary for them, as far as I can tell.

Welcome to Foxworld, a province of the Republican Soviet States of America.

[70sEraVet]

32. A fine example of the GOP base. This needs to be played, not for the Democrats,

but for the Republicans. Show them what their party is made of.
Oh, and it would be good to show that guy being led off in handcuffs.

[Traildogbob]

33. I think President Biden

Should send his special Terrorist Missiles with the Bass-O-Matic slice and dice blades to these slugs of humanity. They cut off heads too. With minimal collateral damage.

[sinkingfeeling]

35. Sounds like a drunk with an extremely limited vocabulary.

[spike jones]

37. At least you don't have to listen to the whole thing to get the essence of what he is saying. n/t

[Kid Berwyn]

38. I stand with Swallwell. Those who don't...

…are part of the problem. They also are the same people who Clarence Thomas, Vladimir Putin and their deplorable NRA troglodyte toad swarm support. What a coincidence.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

39. The radicalized Republican party is a terrorist organization.

Also, sounds like somebody is obsessed with fucking.

[Emile]

42. That dude is in big ass trouble!

Stupid beyond belief.

[sop]

44. All this just because the FBI searched Trump's basement and rifled through his safe?

Imagine how violently they'll react when Trump is handcuffed and marched out of Mar-a-Lago on live television.

[LudwigPastorius]

45. So, Donald Trump is this guy's paragon of...

someone who “cares about the American people”?

I’ve got news for you, asshole. Trump wouldn’t have his Russian hookers piss on you if you were on fire.

[Justice matters.]

46. Something MUST be done to make them stop TERRORIZING law-abiding citizens and lawmakers.

Paging Merrick Garland.

And are you listening, FBI? USSS?

[rockfordfile]

47. arrest the un-American pos.

[Brainfodder]

48. Brainwashed by the actual problem! Very sad bubble boy.

Fell hook line and sinker for nonsense!

He sounded like he was sitting on Satan's lap asking for presents?

It sucks to be him!

Solace where I can get it!

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

51. These assholes are not pro-life

In spite of what they claim otherwise.
