NY man charged with threatening to kill Minnesota Muslim Congresswoman Ilhan Omar: FBI
2019-04-07
Blowhard idiot.
[AlAhram] A western New York man has been charged with threatening to kill US Rep. Ilhan Omar
Somali-American Dem representative from Minnesota. She is apparently married to her brother and may be her own grandmaw...
of Minnesota.

Federal prosecutors announced Friday that Patrick Carlineo Jr. was locked away
Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out!
after placing a threatening call to Omar’s office in Washington D.C. last month.

Authorities did not say when Carlineo was arrested.

Omar is among the first of two Moslem women to serve in Congress.

The FBI said in a criminal complaint Carlineo called her a "terrorist" and threatened to shoot her. The bureau said that Carlineo sounded angry during the call but "spelled his name correctly and provided contact information" to a staffer.

Carlineo told the FBI that he is a patriot, "loves the president and that he hates radical Moslems in our government," the criminal complaint says. Carlineo’s defense attorney declined to comment on the charges Friday.

Omar was met with backlash for remarks she made earlier this year on Israel, including comments that American supporters of Israel are pushing people to have "allegiance to a foreign country ."

Some people perceived Omar’s comments were anti-Semitic. She later apologized, saying "anti-Semitism is real and I am grateful for Jewish allies and colleagues who are educating me on the painful history of anti-Semitic tropes."

Omar, a Somali-American, has also received anti-Semitic and racists comments.
Such a cleverboots, that Ay Pee journalist, carefully ignoring the history of the term antisemitism, which came into common use in 1880 or so to distinguish between what was claimed to be modern, scientific “racial” hatred of Jews and the unenlightened, religious prejudice of the old-fashioned Jew-hater.
Reuters adds:
Patrick Carlineo Jr., 55, of Addison, New York, faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine if convicted, the U.S. Department of Justice said on Friday in a statement.

According to prosecutors, Carlineo spoke by telephone with one of Omar’s staff members on March 21 and asked the employee: "Do you work for the Moslem Brüderbund? Why are you working for her, she’s a (expletive) terrorist. I’ll put a bullet in her (expletive) skull."

The threat was referred to the U.S. Capitol Police who launched a probe in coordination with the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Justice Department said.

Carlineo made an initial court appearance on Friday and is being held pending a detention hearing on April 10.

Even the stupid party is going to have a hard time not using the political fodder these 'young Turks' are giving the independents and conservatives in choosing who to vote for and not vote for.
