Arizona Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego called out former state gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake (R) for her recent remarks on former President Trump’s indictment, referring to them as “dangerous.”

Speaking at a Georgia GOP convention, Lake threatened violence toward Attorney General Merrick Garland, President Biden, and Special Counsel Jack Smith, and the media for coming after Trump.

“If you want to get to President Trump, you’re going to have to go through me, and you’re going to have to go through 75 million Americans just like me,” Lake said during her speech on Friday, according to the AZ Central.

“And I’m going to tell you, most of us are card-carrying members of the NRA. That’s not a threat, that’s a public service announcement.”

Are you advocating preemptive violence?

10. Why is DU neutral in a race between an Independent vs. a Democrat?

I know its probably a dumb question and I'm like maybe 3 months behind and 10 cards short of a full deck, because I'm missing something for sure.

Or maybe its not "DU-ish" to ask a question like this.

Or is there another actual Democrat in this primary besides Gallego? In which we would be siding with a true Democrat vs. another true Democrat.

I know there's a DU SOP rule against slamming Independents that caucus with the Democrats (Sinema), but that's not the same as requiring neutrality when they are running against an actual Democrat, at least I don't think it is (but I'm 10 cards short and 3 months behind)

Thanks

12. Good question that has come up before

It is because up until the filing deadline ANOTHER true Democrat could enter the race.

Or is there another actual Democrat in this primary besides Gallego? In which we would be siding with a true Democrat vs. another true Democrat.

4. Lake is a seriously demented loon

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. Yes. Her grasp of reality is dicey. Fund raise off of it. GoTV because of it. . . nt

5. Terrorist. GITMO this threat to the nation MAGA zombie.

Waterboard her with Trump Water.

[King_Klonopin]

8. I think she has a secret avocation as a dominatrix

Soft and fuzzy, she ain't.

Republican women are not excluded from participating in the phony tough-guy act.

It is all bravado -- the fake tough:
Trump
Kari Lake
MTG
Lauren Bobble-head
Gym Jordan
Matt Gaetz
Steve Bannon
Tucker Carlson
Proud Boys

How many of these national and DC Republicans actually served in the military?
How many have volunteered to risk their lives by going into harm's way?

Fake Fake Fake

9. That woman is insane.

I already knew she was insane, but this is a different and worse kind of insane than I realized.

I am SO damned sick and tired of politicians who want to be part of our government but have no respect for the rule of law. Fuck Donald Trump for modeling the behavior that has given people like Lake permission to behave like this.

[Alexander Of Assyria]

15. Not just no respect for rule of law, frontal assault!

Understandable. The rule of law is kryptonite to fascists.
