Story by Patrick Williams, USA TODAY NETWORK • 8h

A local northern Ohio councilman says he and his family have gone into hiding at the advice of federal officials after getting more than 500 threats over his Facebook post criticizing Charlie Kirk.

John Impellizzeri told the USA Today Network's Akron Beacon Journal that he's in fear for his life after his post following the conservative leader's assassination was shared nationwide by "Libs of TikTok" and other right-wing groups.

The threats escalated after the post was shared on X on Sept. 12 by Stephen Miller, the Trump administration's deputy chief of staff for policy.

"I'm in physical hiding for fear for my life," Impellizzeri said. "The police department is getting death threats."

He's a typical democrat politician.  He has an alligator mouth and a hummingbird *sshole.

Police in his town were contacted, and they said there had been no threats reported. So this guy is just lying for attention. So surprising.
