President Trump has put the left on notice after several key members of his staff were publicly harassed over his administration’s “zero tolerance” immigration policy, telling supporters in a letter: “Not on my watch.”
After several high profile harassment incidents, Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters (CA) tossed a can of gasoline on the dumpster fire last weekend, calling for people to form into mobs and physically confront members of the Trump administration if they see them out in public.
“If you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” said Waters.
Since then, White House advisor Stephen Miller’s apartment was swarmed by protesters who tacked up “Wanted” posters, and on Tuesday a group of Georgetown students harassed Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and his wife.
And on Monday, we reported that a decapitated and burned animal carcass was found on the porch of a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) staffer, according to WTOP/ABC.
Around two dozen incidents have been reported against government employees issued in the past few days – primarily against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, which resulted in a determination by Homeland Security that there is a “heightened threat against DHS employees.”
In a fundraising email titled “Harassment,” Trump wrote:
Sarah Huckabee Sanders was kicked out of a restaurant.
Kirstjen Nielsen was harassed in her own home.
Homeland Security staffers have been warned of “increased threats” from the open borders mob.
…And now Democrat Maxine Waters is calling for MORE HARASSMENT of the Silent Majority. The Left is trying to bully and buy their way back into power. Not on my watch. I will always stand up for you.
The President followed up on this thread this morning, tweeting about the “unhinged” left and once again highlighting Maxine Waters’ “crazy rants.”
