“In 2016, Trump bellowed to a rabid crowd on his scorched earth campaign trail that if “She (Hillary Clinton) gets to pick her judges, there’s nothing you can do, folks.” When the crowd booed he added this: “Although the Second Amendment people — maybe there is, I don’t know …” I could spend an hour citing more examples of repulsive threats like these, but the point is this: Putting people’s lives in danger through violent rhetoric is a Republican-made atrocity. They see “fine people” in murdering racists, and violent attackers who mean to end our country as “victims” and “tourists.” While the story in West Palm Beach is still developing, we know for sure that there have been at least 33 confirmed bomb threats in Springfield, Ohio, that have led to the evacuations of schools and city buildings in yet another American city that didn’t deserve this. State troopers have descended on Springfield, because people are on edge and living in fear thanks to the leaders of the Republican Party who want it this way. This is the America THEY have created, because these ghastly people see it as their only way to win in November. They actually WANT us living in fear.”

— Let’s call Springfield what it is: Republican-made terrorism

Handsome of countenance More handsome still of heart A stalwart soul And every inch a man. Hang on his neck and thank the day That sent you to him For the stuff of which this man is made Is seldom - Rare and precious fibre In a vicious world
