It’s official, the talking points have gone out in advance of Biden’s primetime speech on Thursday night where he plans to call half of Americans names and pretend they’re violent and dangerous for disagreeing with him and his agenda. He will babble about MAGA GOP or MAGA Republicans, calling them fascists and an actual threat to the country, blah blah blah.
We’ve seen so much rhetoric today from the Left pushing lies about violent Republicans … so we weren’t at all surprised to see this from Eric Swalwell.
Note, if he really and truly did receive a threat like this he shouldn’t be posting it on Twitter, he should be contacting the police. Period. But as we’ve seen from Eric in the past, it’s more about narrative and message than truth and reality.
Take a gander.
Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) ~ A staffer of mine—who’s 1 month into her job—received a call from a man saying he’s coming to our office w/ an assault rifle to kill me. I hesitate to share this but how else do I tell you we are in violent times, & the architects are Trump & McCarthy. Bloodshed is coming.
Did he say assault rifle, Eric?
Or did he say an "assault rifle with a chainsaw bayonet attachment"?
And gosh, if he was really scared he wouldn’t be politicizing this crap on Twitter.
Oh look, he shared a screenshot to prove it really happened ...
Darn it, we were really looking forward to hearing the guy with the fake southern accent again. The ‘gay man’ is a nice touch, Eric.
Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) ~
Hmmm ... I don't know, Eric ... you sure this just wasn't Fang Fang's boyfriend having a go at you???
Yeah, we made the same face.
The Lincoln Project must’ve gotten the same talking points. We hope Biden is paying these schmucks per tweet.
The Lincoln Project (@ProjectLincoln) ~ We hope you and your staff are protected and safe.
John W (@txradioguy) ~ And instead of going to the authorities you tweet about it? Yeah, this never happened.
Ready4The Aliens™ (@VanSolo10) ~ So dramatic.
Social Distance Champion (@realchrishynes) ~ Know how I know this is a lie? No one with such a rifle would refer to it as an "assault rifle."
Social Distance Champion (@realchrishynes) ~ LOL and now you're claiming he actually said he had an AR-15? Did he give you the serial number too?
NiedermeyersDeadHorse aka NDH (@NiedsG) ~ Did he use the words "assault rifle"?
Sounds like a Democrat threatening himself, yes?
Or his fruity friends at The Lincoln Project placed the call for him.
Veterans for Liberty (@Vets4AP) ~ We know you made this entire thing up, just like you always do. Resign, you're a complete disgrace.
Hollaria Briden, Esq. (@HollyBriden) ~
Yeah, even Brandon's proposed Mistress of Misinformation, Nina Jankowicz, doesn't believe you, Eric!
HA HA HA HA HA HA!
JimTheTired (@JimmyHallTX) ~ Eric, you lie so often and so freely that nobody believes you. It would seem that this is the next DNC election tactic.
Samuel Culper 722 (@politiwars) ~ Good thing you are surrounded by ARMED POLICE OFFICERS huh? Who have ASSAULT WEAPONS OF WAR.
David Cole Grey (@greycole05) ~ I’ll take “Things Swallowell makes up for drama and sympathy” for $200, please.
Ultra Nuclear Calvin (@shoveitjack) ~
Pop Copy (@urbanmeyerlives) ~ Go outside.
Seriously.
Touch some grass, Eric.
Nobody believes this.
