Texas congressman threatened after calling for President Trump’s impeachment
-
HOUSTON — A black Texas congressman said Saturday that he’s been threatened with lynching by callers infuriated over him seeking impeachment of President Donald Trump.
Representative Al Green held a town hall meeting and played recordings of several threatening voicemails left at his offices in Houston and Washington, the Houston Chronicle reported.
The seven-term Democrat told the crowd of about 100 people that he won’t be deterred.
“We are not going to be intimidated,” Green said. “We are not going to allow this to cause us to deviate from what we believe to be the right thing to do and that is to proceed with the impeachment of President Trump.”
One male caller used a racial insult and threatened Green with “hanging from a tree” if he pursues impeachment. Another man left a message saying Green would be the one impeached after “a short trial” and then he would be hanged, according to the recording.

Gee, I wonder why people are upset with that libtard? Just because he called for having the President Of the United States removed from office even though Trump has not been charged with anything, nor is there any credible evidence of any wrongdoing?
I would never even consider threatening to kill that man. However, I do have a male cat that used to be impossible until I had his balls cut off. Now "he" is the most lovable kitty in the world! -
Of course. We now live in the capitalist equivalent of North Korea, after all.

This is no surprise. That little Nazi Stephen Miller said several months ago that the Presidents authority will not be questioned by anyone.
