Maine’s secretary of state said she has received threats in the wake of her decision to remove former President Trump from the ballot under the 14th Amendment on Friday.
“I was prepared for the possibility of threats, and I really appreciate law enforcement and the people around me who have been incredibly supportive of my safety and security,” Shenna Bellows (D) said during a Friday appearance on CNN. “My safety and security is important, so is the safety and security of everyone who works with me and we have received threatening communications.”
“Those are unacceptable,” Bellows continued.
Using violence, or the threat of violence, to affect the course of politics, that’s the definition of terrorisim, is it not?
Not if you’re a Republican, then it’s “free speech” and “exercising your rights.”
The only true terrorism is calling christofascist terrorism bad.
