Pro-Trump Man Charged With Threatening to Kill Rep. Ilhan Omar

The upstate New York man who was arrested on Friday for allegedly threatening to assassinate Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, phoned her office last month and called her “a fucking terrorist,” according to a criminal complaint released on Saturday.

Patrick W. Carlineo, the complaint alleges, called Omar’s office on March 21 and asked a staffer if they worked for the Muslim Brotherhood, vowing “I’ll put a bullet in her fucking skull” before spelling his name and leaving his contact information including his cell phone number. The call was immediately referred to United States Capitol Police who reached out to the FBI.

When being interviewed by the FBI one week later, the 55-year-old Carlineo was defiant, the complaint states, telling a federal investigator that “if our forefathers were still alive, they’d put a bullet in her head.”

“Carlineo stated that he was a patriot, that he loves the President, and that he hates radical Muslims in our government,” the complaint reads.

The FBI found that Carlineo possessed two firearms in his Addison, New York home.

How stupid can the trump cult be when they make death threats and give their name and phone number to the staffer of the person they are treating to shot in the head!

from out of the woodwork....

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, there is more danger amongst groups within the US than from outside . .

Clearly, the man knows nothing of history if he thinks the forefathers would have put a bullet in her head.

Typical Trump deplorable.

I hope she stays safe. We need her in the House.
