“The Secret Service came to my door today because of a tweet. No threats. No violence. Just words. That’s where we are now,” she wrote on X in a thread about the ordeal.

She was asked about the comments she made online, and she made it clear, “I want to see their trials.”

    I thought secret service only visited those who make violent threats against the president.

    This seems new.

      I’d be happy with Nuremberg too, as they love fascism that much, lets give them another piece of it.

    One thing that Trump’s 2nd term has made crystal clear is that pretty much all levels of law enforcement are just filled with bootlickers.

    Has there been even a case of one department or union siding WITH THE PEOPLE???

    Or are they all just authoritarian living assholes?

    We also need more liberals going into law enforcement, we’ve completely seeded those jobs to bullies and morons that get off on abusing power.

      You don’t go into law enforcement thinking you won’t be shooting someone in your career. You have to want to use force on people and abandon empathy for humans just trying to survive.

      Liberals are ill-equipped and it’s antithetical to the left.

      Yep. It feels just like politics. All the asshole pieces of shit keep the decent humans from wanting to be in those fields.

        A former buddy of mine joined local LE some years back. They tormented and hazed the hell outta him until he was forced to move to another precinct.
        And then it happened again.
        Nowadays, he toes the line and has a LOT of really worrying opinions on a lot of things, but he has the respect of his coworkers now.

    Calling for trials is a veiled threat? Fuck everyone involved with this administration.

      I guess they thought “lock them up!” would have been more appropriate? Due process is the worst, I guess

      I have yet to see anything that shows what her tweets were. Is it in the article but I’m missing it because I block Twitter?

        I block Twitter too so I’m going by what the article says.

        He asked her again what she meant by the comment, and she made it clear she was talking about officials having Nuremberg-style tribunals for those who enabled unlawful behavior.

    There should be trials, and when they’re found guilty of sedition and treason, they should rot in prison.

      The only prereq for SS now is that you can stand to be locked in an airtight vehicle for extended periods with the human rotbag. Even his “wife” can’t stand to be in the same car as him.

    I want to see trials in front of the international criminal court, and I want to see impeachments and trials at home. I want JUSTICE for the countless laws broken.

      Do it in the fash social media town square with an identifiable name and they will. Do it here where only we will largely see and they won’t care. Until the rest of the world and the United States wakes up and ditches these fascist platforms. The fascists will gleefully use them as easy surveillance and intimidation.

          The fediverse from my experience is so left leaning that just by simply existing on it I would presume means you’re on a list for those in power.

          Oh sure. But they have to work for it here. Generally people aren’t directly personally identifiable here. Or the system scanning and reporting to them.

    Just a reminder - I’m sure Kamala’s admin would have been just as bad in every way. But at least under Taco, no one is getting killed in Gaza, right?
