November 9, 20214 yr https://www.reuters.com/investigates/special-report/usa-election-threats A REUTERS SPECIAL REPORT Reuters unmasks Trump supporters who terrified U.S. election officials Law enforcement has taken little action as backers of Donald Trump aim stark threats at election officials. Reuters tracked down nine of the harassers. Most were unrepentant. In Arizona, a stay-at-home dad and part-time Lyft driver told the state’s chief election officer she would hang for treason. In Utah, a youth treatment center staffer warned Colorado’s election chief that he knew where she lived and watched her as she slept. In Vermont, a man who says he works in construction told workers at the state election office and at Dominion Voting Systems that they were about to die. "This might be a good time to put a f‑‑‑‑‑‑ pistol in your f‑‑‑‑‑‑ mouth and pull the trigger,” the man shouted at Vermont officials in a thick New England accent last December. "Your days are f‑‑‑‑‑‑ numbered.” repugs are a dangerous cult.
November 9, 20214 yr Ross Miller, a Georgia real-estate investor, warned an official in the Atlanta area that he’d be tarred and feathered, hung or face firing squads unless he addressed voter fraud. In an interview, Miller said he would continue to make such calls "until they do something.” He added: "We can’t have another election until they fix what happened in the last one.”
November 9, 20214 yr Jamie Fialkin of Peoria, Arizona, talked of a grand conspiracy of those controlling the media, the banking system and social media companies. "When you have those three things, you can get away with anything – you can tell people, ‘black is white, white is black,’ and people go, ‘OK,’” Fialkin said. He believes America is headed for civil war. He endorsed Trump’s false claims that millions of fraudulent votes swung the election to Biden. He said he’s convinced that former President Barack Obama, a Democrat, and progressive philanthropist George Soros bought fake ballots from China, another debunked theory promoted by Trump’s allies. Fialkin blamed one person in particular for Trump’s Arizona loss: Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, the state’s top election official. On June 3, Fialkin called Hobbs’ office and left a message saying she’d hang "from a f‑‑‑‑‑‑ tree.” "They’re going to hang you for treason, you f‑‑‑‑‑‑ ****,” Fialkin said. Minutes later, Fialkin left another voicemail in which he recommended a "good slogan” for Democrat Hobbs’ campaign for governor: "Don’t vote for me, for one reason. Back in December, I got hung for treason.” Fialkin said he never intended to harm Hobbs, but was unapologetic. "I’m not denying anything,” he said, "because I’m a patriot.” Fialkin said he changed his Republican voter registration to independent because the party didn’t fight hard enough for Trump. "I’m like most Americans,” he said. "We’re just waiting to see when the civil war starts.”
November 9, 20214 yr Two others came from Jeff Yeager, a 56-year-old self-employed electrician from Los Angeles, California. Yeager, too, called for her execution. "When Katie the c‑‑‑ is executed for treason, what are you f‑‑‑‑‑‑ traitors going to be doing for work?” Yeager said in a June 17 voicemail left for Hobbs and her staff. Months later, on Sept. 8, he left another voicemail warning she’d be executed. The day before Yeager spoke with Reuters in September, he said, two FBI agents visited him at his Los Angeles home to discuss threats he made to two national politicians: Republican Senator Mitt Romney and Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, both of whom denounced Trump for inciting the January 6 insurrection. He said the FBI agents produced transcripts of his calls to Pelosi and Romney. Yeager said the transcripts quoted him as saying "we will kill you.”
November 9, 20214 yr Eric Pickett, a 42-year-old night staffer at a youth treatment center in Utah, said his anger boiled over after watching an Aug. 10 "cyber symposium” held by pillow magnate Mike Lindell, a Trump ally who has pushed false election conspiracy theories. Pickett said he paid close attention as one of the symposium’s speakers, Tina Peters, a Republican clerk in Colorado’s Mesa County, criticized Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold, a Democrat. Griswold has been leading an investigation into Peters over a voting-system security breach in Mesa, one of the state’s most conservative counties. At the symposium, Peters, an election-fraud conspiracy theorist, claimed Griswold "raided” her office to produce false evidence and "bully” her. None of that was true, according to state officials. Nonetheless, Pickett snapped. He got on Facebook and sent Griswold a message. "You raided an office. You broke the law. STOP USING YOUR TACTICS. STOP NOW. Watch your back. I KNOW WHERE YOU SLEEP, I SEE YOU SLEEPING. BE AFRAID, BE VERRY AFFRAID. I hope you die.”
November 9, 20214 yr In a Dec. 10 hearing organized by Georgia Republican lawmakers, Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani played a short snippet of surveillance footage from Atlanta’s State Farm Arena, which was used as a tabulation site. He claimed it showed Fulton County election workers pulling out suitcases full of fraudulent ballots in Biden’s favor. State investigators and county officials have said the "suitcases” were standard ballot containers and the video shows normal vote-counting. Ross Miller, the real-estate investor in Forsyth County, Georgia, saw the video. He left a Dec. 31 voicemail for Fulton County Elections Director Richard Barron, saying he "better run” and that he’ll be tarred and feathered and executed unless "ya’ll do something” about voter fraud. Barron forwarded the threat to police, according to a county email. In an interview, Miller acknowledged making the call. "I left the message because I’m a patriot, and I’m sick and tired of what’s going on in this country,” he said. "That’s what happens when you commit treason: You get hung.” Miller, who said he was in his sixties, said he’s been kicked off Twitter seven times for his views. He follows "Tore Says,” a podcast popular with QAnon adherents whose host, Terpsichore Maras-Lindeman, has called for a "revolutionary movement.” "You’ve got to stand up,” said Miller. "You’re either a patriot for the freedom of this country or you’re a communist against it.”
November 9, 20214 yr Some Vermont officials questioned why the man intimidating state officials wasn’t investigated or prosecuted, highlighting a broader national debate over how to respond to post-election threats. In a pattern seen across America, Vermont law enforcement officials decided this man’s repeated menacing messages amounted to legally protected free speech. The threatener focused on one of the central conspiracy theories promoted by Trump and his allies: That officials had rigged vote-counting technology from Dominion Voting Systems to flip millions of votes to Biden. "Just let everybody know that their days are f------ numbered,” he said in a Dec. 1 voicemail. "There are a lot of people who are going to be executed.” Around that time, officials at Dominion’s headquarters in Colorado received three unsettling voicemails. "You’re all f‑‑‑‑‑‑ dead,” said one message. "We’re going to f‑‑‑‑‑‑ kill you all.” The caller’s telephone number and voice matched those on the Vermont threats. On Dec. 16, a day after the state’s attorney ruled out an investigation, the unidentified caller taunted Vermont election officials in a new voicemail. "All the traitors will be punished” in the "next few weeks,” he said. "Kill yourself now.”
November 9, 20214 yr Then he turned on the Reuters journalists. In an Oct. 11 voicemail, he threatened to sue the reporters for obtaining his telephone number from state records. Over the next 25 days, he texted them 91 times, sharing misinformation on the origins of the coronavirus and other conspiracy theories. On Oct. 17, he left the new voicemails at the Vermont secretary of state’s office, including the one threatening that the reporters and election staffers would get "popped.” The next morning, the caller followed up with more texts to the journalists. "I am going to destroy you and that is a threat.” In multiple texts, he said he would "ruin” the life of one of the reporters. On Oct. 30, he left two more voicemails for them. "You are all going to f‑‑‑‑‑‑ hang. I’m going to make sure of it,” said one. "Bad s‑‑‑ is gonna to happen to you,” said the other. "Your days are f‑‑‑‑‑‑ numbered.” He also sent the reporters four messages with the same picture: a grainy black-and-white photograph of a public execution that has been shared widely in far-right social media, with a caption claiming it showed "members of the media” hanging in "Nuremberg, Germany.” (In fact, the photo was taken in Kiev, Ukraine, depicting NSDAP officers being hung for war crimes.)

That seems too on the nose.

The directive came after a parent raised concerns at the School Board’s meeting Monday about books available through the Riverbend High School’s digital library app. The board voted 6–0 to order the removal. Berkeley District representative Erin Grampp was not in attendance for the vote on that issue. Two board members, Courtland representative Rabih Abuismail and Livingston representative Kirk Twigg, said they would like to see the removed books burned. "I think we should throw those books in a fire,” Abuismail said, and Twigg said he wants to "see the books before we burn them so we can identify within our community that we are eradicating this bad stuff.” book burning in virginia...nothing to see here, folks.
