Bernie Sanders and Kamala Harris Targeted With Murder Threats, Court Filings Allege

Source: Newsweek

Senators Bernie Sanders and Kamala Harris, two prospective contenders for the Democratic nomination for president in 2020, were the targets of murder threats in March, according to a grand jury indictment revealed publicly Wednesday. Those taking part in the gun-control rally March for Our Lives on March 24 were also allegedly the target of threats.

Nicholas Bukoski was indicted by a federal grand jury in Washington, D.C., this April, but the filing was held under seal until last week, as first reported by Politico. Bukoski has been charged with two counts of threatening to assault or murder United States officials and three counts of transmitting threats in interstate commerce.

According to a District Court filing, the initial indictment was sealed so the suspect would not be made aware of the investigation.

Not to mention fake RW Christian who was home schooled and is a proud 2A supporter.

At least this one won't be voting in the near future.

His previous criminal spree and political inclinations are explored in the link below.

He is the poster for "That boy ain't right!" Glad he is off the streets, and I hope they can keep him locked up for a long time.

Thanks for providing the link, herding cats.
