Kinzinger: Trump ‘Absolutely, 100%’ Inciting Supporters to Threaten Law Enforcement
Pam Key 15 Aug 2022
Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) claimed Monday on CNN’s “Situation Room” that former President Donald Trump was “100%” inciting supporters to violently threaten the FBI after the raid on his Mar-a-Lago estate.
Blitzer said, “You’ve seen this joint FBI Department of Homeland Security bulletin. It is now warning of what they call unprecedented violent threats in the wake of the search of Mar-a-Lago. Do you hold the former President Donald Trump responsible for inciting his supporters?”
Kinzinger said, “Yeah, absolutely, 100%. I posted a thread somebody put up of a number of folks on TikTok that were putting out, you know, not just anti-government, but really threats to violence, pictures of their guns saying it is time, we’re coming. I mean, this is ridiculous. I mean, and it’s ridiculous obviously for what the former president has done in terms of saying, ‘This is an attack on my home. I did nothing wrong.’ Of course, the little bit that we do know, it seems like there is certainly at least good reason for the FBI to have done what they did.”
He added, “But then members of Congress, senators, you know, any Republican elected official out there that rushes to be the first on television or the first to Twitter to basically condemn the FBI, I mean, look, I’ll tell you as a guy that grew up in the right and grew up as a Republican, there has always been a strain of people that believe that the government is, you know, out there to get them. That the FBI represents that part of the government that is out there to get people. This stokes that. It’s really dangerous. I fear it could get worse unless people are way more responsible.”

The responsibility of stoking fear in the public lies with a corrupt DOJ and those that promote, condone or cover up that corruption.

The man speaks with a forked tongue.
No mention of course, of YEARS of 'peaceful protests' burning down cities. Actual, actionable, criminal activity...
Two-faced bastard.
-
Whoever said the FBI was in the business of law enforcement? When they start acting like an American institution, rather than KGB interlopers, they might earn some respect.
Regardless, Trump has not incited anything. This is a hideous lie.
-
What did Trump say? Or does his existence alone incite violence – and by whom?

Nobody cares what you think anymore, Adam Bomb. You only exist in somebody's rear view mirror.

Exactly.

I have made this observation several times in the past.
Years ago during the height of the Tea Party movement, I came to know Adam Kinzinger. I met with him, had lunch with him. On my invitation, he came to my place of work to meet and greet with people. He was a model conservative - at least, that is how I would have described him.
I would have never, ever, envisioned this Adam Kinzinger.

A perfect television ad would be him saying this with a montage of Maxine Waters, Obama, Pelosi, and Jackson Lee, telling people to get others faces etc...

A friend of mine and I were having a discussion about another friends wife and he made a comment I will never forget: "Anyone can look sane for 15 minutes." Probably one of the truest thing he ever said.

True enough.

Is this goober up for re-election?

@verga
It is blindingly obvious that neither one of you ever met my ex.
She can flip from one extreme to another in mid-sentence,while blinking.
That's why I asked her to go with me to the DMV. They never had a chance.

Nope. His district has been eliminated.

I guess they would have to want to appear sane for those 15 minutes. If not then all bets are off.

She can go from one extreme to another in the blink of an eye,and never miss a beat. After she got done explaining my problems with the DMV about my drivers license,she literally had the woman clerk tearing up,and those people have heard it ALL.
I am in absolute awe at this ability she seems able to utilize without any effort at all on her part. It explains why I never won an argument with her. Also kinda explains why she has 4 or 5 divorces under her belt,too.
Still,ya just gotta be in awe of such raw talent,as long as you are not on the receiving end of it,anyway.
And the truth is she seems to be totally unaware of it. It just seems to kick in any time she needs it.

Because his district was eliminated and he has no future in Congress, I suspect this nut is trying to go out in a blaze of glory, thinking he can destroy everything in his path. His tweets are completely unhinged.
His utter insanity won't hurt him at his next job, which is likely to be commentator at MSNBC or CNN. *****rollingeyes*****

Nope. His district has been eliminated.
Was anything stopping him from moving to a more hospitable District?

His personality. People hate him.

100%? I'm 100% sure Kinzinger is "pissy" during his menopause phase of life.
-
Did lame-duck wolf-crier Kinzinger provide evidence supporting his claim?

Has he ever?
-
Kinzinger and Liz Cheney are birds of a feather - the Democrats' pet nominal Republicans.

@Cyber Liberty
I suspect his lunatic posts are nothing more than examples of him trolling for political support in some lunatic district so he can move there and run for office again.

It's been suggested that Kinzinger is menopausal and may be in need of hormone replacement therapy.

Ucky-ducky, of the myriad legal fights in which Trump has been embroiled the past 7 years, which ones did he started, other than by existing?
Trump-Russia Collusion? False accusation started by HilLIARy
Kids in cages? Caused by continuing to enforce laws with the resources left to him (and used in the same way) by OhBummer.
NY AG fishing expedition? Started by NY's AG.
Ukraine phone call? Started by a Lt. Col. and Obama-appointed ambassador's lies.
1/6? Trump's own words and offers of support in the days prior to 1/6 disprove Pelosiroo's, et al's claims.
MaL raid? Started by bad-faith negotiations by the National Archives and DoIJ false pretexts.
Trump did not start these and similar fights. Trump did (and does) fight back instead of caving and surrendering. Trump gets that surrendering to bullies empowers bullies.

How often are such things incited by someone on their own side?
And when does the opposing side ever take responsibility for escalating things to the point where it becomes a threat?

Yep, Obama threatened, the Senate leaders threaten, and it is all ignored.
