More death threats against Trump
Feel the hate! It appears that there is a trending effort on twitter to raise money to hire a hit man to kill Donald Trump.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Threatening the President (or President Elect) is a class E felony under 18 U.S.C. § 871. Secret Service has jurisdiction.
Threats against other Federal government officials (& their families) are investigated by the FBI.
“There are three elements of the offense of making an illegal threat: (i) there must be a transmission in interstate commerce; (ii) there must be a communication containing the threat; (iii) and the threat must be a threat to injure the person of another.”
I’d say threats on social media meet the elements required. Is anyone in mass media condemning the perpetrators?
Hope you all are enjoying our very fine weather.
Blair,
I want you to know, your a dude now when I read your posts :)
Too funny!
Blair–
Sadly, nothing is going to happen to these rioters.
PDX is nice. I could learn to live in Tigard very easily, but not sure I could afford it. Tall trees, big mountains!
>Fantastic train ride from Milwaukee to PDX
My g-daughter Lindsey (and I) enjoyed your Oregon Day-Trip blog-posts over the past few months & your Michigan vacation adventure posts. She lives in Virginia & has never been “up north” to the Mackinaw Bridge, and neither of us have been west of the Mississippi, until now.
Cotour– hey!
Well, DJT is in. Mark Levin is optimistic, but he spent a good hour tonight reminding us of Mitch McConnell & Chris Christie and their perpetual non-stop RINO ways. As Mr Z has noted, for months, its imperative that solid people surround Trump & push for Conservative Policies.
President directly hires about 3,500 people for the Executive Branch, and apparently Christie is already colluding with all sorts of Bush/Romney people, and Mitch has already stated “No Term Limit Bills will be considered by the Senate,” & “no nuclear option on filibusters.”
Trump hasn’t even been sworn in, and Mitch is already undercutting him. (and Rinse Priebus, is a dangerous RINO, CRONY, establishment hack. He’s no “superstar,” he needs to GO & DJT needs to send him packing. He somehow kept his phony job through 2 loser presidential candidates and now he wants to cash in his meal-ticket on Trump.
Wayne,
Trumps learning curve will be interesting although I believe that he will in short order identify those who are standing in his way and take them to the yard and ceremoniously / symbolically spank them or slit their throats for all to see and learn from. (Kind of like the Clintons but more above board, honest and respectable)
Mitch McConnel is an older man, maybe he has 4 or eight more years in him, and maybe does not, and while he is definitely sending messages about what will be and not be Trump is going to be more than a match for him IMO and he will tend to get more than he will be giving.
This is going to be a very interesting political dance that we are all going to witness, and as a side note I think we are seeing him rising to the occasion and becoming more than as the weight and importance of his amazing American accomplishment sinks in.
As an side, the Liberals / intellectually dishonest Leftists in my life are to a man and woman confused to say the least.
All the best.
