'We're going to get you': Eric Swalwell blames Marjorie Taylor Greene for threatening voicemail
Source: Alec Regimbal , SFGATE
California Rep. Eric Swalwell and Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene got into a Twitter spat Wednesday that culminated in Swalwell sharing an audio recording of a threatening voicemail he says was received during the back-and-forth.
In that voicemail, the caller insults Swalwell and says he's "going to get" Swalwell and his "mutant" kids.
"We're coming to your house this weekend, [we're] going to get you and the little mutant fascists, the little mutant offspring of yours," the caller said. "We're going to get you."
The feud between the two federal lawmakers centered on Swalwell's professional relationship with a woman who is suspected of being a Chinese spy, and began after Swalwell tweeted about an interaction he says he had at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.

Wouldn't be surprised if Marjorie Taylor Gangrene was the one who made the phone call.

We are deep into times that are more dangerous than the Civil War, thanks to morons like Greene and people on the Court who enable her unhinged followers.

(19,204 posts)that whoever left the voice-mail refers to Swalwell as a "fascist". Whoever it was doesn't understand what the words "facism/fascist" mean. I imagine they think themselves to be extremely intelligent though.

(21,152 posts)That's how Democrats are fascists and socialists simultaneously. These words also mean "Woke," "Communist," "Groomer," etc.
Think of them as sentence fillers.

(17,035 posts)FBI found no evidence he was compromised. As soon as he found out she was possibly a spy, he cut her loose, in 2015, no less. Fang left the country after living here for over 4 years, probably targeting up and coming politicians, including Rep. Swalwell, who was unaware of her activities. Speaker Pelosi and the minority weakling were briefed in late 2020, so as usual greene is a day late and a dollar short.
