Puzzled: Who would be threatening MTG? Watching Deadline White House this

p.m. there's a discussion about the dangerous threats to her.

From what group of people? Believe me, I'm not condoning threatening anyone, but I can't see how it's Repugs because she's still reportedly very popular among her home state MAGAs.

But why would it be Dems, either? She's been well praised for standing up to djt and supporting the Epstein victims -- plus, I don't believe Dems are particularly prone to threatening people -- we're more apt to simply send surly e-mails.

Look at the administration. It’s a perpetual threat machine. Some will just follow the example. Disagree with someone? Threaten violence. Sick.

2. Really? You don't think those MAGA who retain cult-like devotion to the orange monster are just a bit perturbed

at her for what Trump claims is treason in terms of her actions on the Epstein file release vote and her criticism of "Dear Leader?"
How is it you don't think some in this most extreme schism of MAGA might not take his lead and go after her?

it’s a good bet that a lot of the threats to people Trump calls out publicly are also coming from foreign actors, gleefully trolling.

And that’s lots of people. Anna Kasparian has put out lots of videos saying her threats are now coming from “Canary Mission”.

Threats are off the wall - People besides MTG who post they “are not suicidal”. - Candace Owens, Tucker, Cenk, Massie, Anna Kasparian, Kim Iverson, plus some people from Turning Points etc

After Kirk’s murder, any congress person can request $10,000 a month for personal security and an extra $20,000 to secure their house.

The people who can't handle a single negative word against their "god" Trump. MTG has criticized Trump about several things, therefore, these people think she needs to be eliminated.
