Swalwell on Death Threats: Extremists Are Just Proving to Me Why Gun Legislation Is Important

‘They should not have to live in fear because their husband or their father works in public service’

RUSH EXCERPT:

SWALWELL: “I do everything I can to protect my three little kids and my wife. They should not have to live in fear because their husband or their father works in public service. And has spoken out against the former president. What I’m not going to stop speaking out. That’s why I post these messages because if these are going to intimidate me, they are not. If you think you’re going to intimidate my colleagues in the FBI and, I put those out there to show that I am not going to be intimidated and number two, there’s a correlation when American leaders stoke these conspiracy theories that these folks receive it as a gospel and think they it is their duty to take up arms and people have been killed and where people are going to get killed until the lies stopped. Starting with the bigeye Donald Trump is gone after the election and now the new life about the FBI search. By the way, jason, is your calling me and threatening to kill my family and often times I get these calls around my position on gun safety legislation, you have proven to me and the world why we need to be more scrutinizing about going for firearms.”
