LANCASTER, Calif. (AP) — A Southern California man has pleaded not guilty to sending an email threatening to kill U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

City News Service says 47-year-old Craig Shaver of Lancaster entered the plea Friday to felony charges of attempted criminal threats and being a felon in illegal possession of a revolver. He could face more than three years in prison if convicted.

Authorities say Shaver sent the email on Sept. 30 but haven't released specifics of the message.

. . .

Feinstein is the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee. She has received threats and abuse because some Republicans accuse her of trying to thwart the appointment of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

they have this fascist bastard by the short hairs. He can plead 'not guilty', but it looks as if the evidence says otherwise. Enjoy your stay at the beautiful San Quentin rehabilitation facility.

The assholes got their rapey judge in and yet they're still not happy. I think that's what drives them. They want everyone else to feel as terrible as they do.

Let them know that just because they have a demon for a leader doesn't mean that they can run roughshod on the rest of us. They need to start giving these people on the right an education about the rule of law.

Send that fuck away for YEARS and make an example out of him. It's fine to disagree with her or Trump or McConnell but you sure as hell don't threaten their life.
