A New York-based relative of an unidentified journalist also received a threatening message from Lemke, according to the complaint.

and yet we have a Q congressperson doing it daily with no consequences. Why is she immune

Wait... mtgreenee has made threats against many politicians and she is allowed to remain in Congress. On Jan 6, laurenboebert told the domestic terrorists where Pelosi & Pence were being kept safe and she is allowed to remain in Congress.

Freakin insane.

This is chilling ....

Just another person to add to our prison system! Build more prisons - hire more people! That will help the economy (building infrastructure & more jobs) - need to keep arresting these Insurrectionist - help grow the economy! 👍😁
