Jury sees texts where Oath Keepers discuss Nancy Pelosi's 'head rolling down the front steps' at Cap

[Ohio Joe]

Jurors in the Oath Keepers trial on Tuesday learned about disturbingly violent text messages sent by members of the pro-Trump militia that were directed at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA).

As Law & Crime News reporter Adam Klasfeld recounts, jurors were shown a series of text messages in which Oath Keeper Kelly Meggs told an associate named Bob Baker about storming into the Capitol on January 6th, 2021.

"We busted in," Meggs wrote to Baker in one message.

Baker replied that he was "hoping to see Nancy's [Pelosi] head rolling down the front steps" of the building.

Their goal for some time has been to murder Speaker Pelosi... She is effective, that is why she scares the crap out of them.

1. Yes they hate her effectivenes and are dying to copy it.

Or they want to kill because they are so very jealous of her mastery.

2. That and...

Their orange jeebus hates her because he's scared of her and her power that she knows she has and uses with aplomb.

They can't handle her knowledge and the power she wields with it.

3. I keep re-posting: Threatening an elected official and certain others is a FEDERAL CRIME

Repubs are worried about crime?
PROPOSAL:
Prosecute Threats and Hate Speech as the law specifies.
EVERY F---ING ONE OF THEM, PAST AND PRESENT
They are documented, (mostly*) public record, and flipping the finger at the law.
People with no moral compass will do/copycat any vile thing, and increasingly so if not held accountable.

JUST DO IT

* The law can and does get warrants for pretty much anything WHEN IT WANTS TO.
- And one does not send messages to oneself. There is always a recipient or recipients to spill the contents.
- That's how encrypted messages are nabbed.

4. Nancy Pelosi is just so good at what she does.

She's smart and incredibly organized and just a powerful force that's not afraid to take the men on.

The stuff I have seen coming from the Right is absolutely awful. Those good Christians serve everything up with a side of hate. It's nauseating.
