3 1/2 for threatening a democratic election process. What a fucking joke

Ashli Babbitt died for him.

It boggles the mind.

It's funny how you can so easily assume what side of the political spectrum the ~~accused~~ convicted man aligns himself with even though it isn't mentioned in the headline... Curious isn't it.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Frederick Francis Goltz, 52, of Lubbock, pleaded guilty earlier this year to interstate threatening communications.

Goltz was sentenced Thursday by U.S. District Judge James Wesley Hendrix, who also ordered three years of supervised release following the prison term.

Trump, a Republican, was indicted on felony charges earlier this week for working to overturn the results of the 2020 election in the run-up to the violent U.S. Capitol riot by his supporters.

Prosecutors say court records show that two days later, Goltz responded to a post about the elections official with the comment, β€œHe’s got a WIFE that is a lawyer, too.

Prosecutors say that an FBI investigation found Goltz had a long history of making threatening statements against a variety of people.

Court records showed that in November 2022, he advocated for β€œa mass shooting of poll workers and election officials” in precincts he believed had β€œsuspect” results.
