threaten/intimidate (dox) Democrats, judges, prosecutors (and their families), witnesses, court clerks, the FBI, a 5 star general, Blacks, Jews, Hispanics, Native Americans, Asians, women, the LGBTQ community, and election workers, well, that's ok... but when the MAGA cretins harass/threaten one of their own (and spouse)...OMG unacceptable!..

Oh, and help plan the J6 attack.
The truth will see the light of day for both of these issues.
