Speaker McCarthy;
Donald Trump, the leader of the Republican Party and the man you once disparaged for inciting the January 6 insurrection and deadly attack on our Capitol but are now attempting to protect, has just threatened more "potential death and destruction" if the New York District Attorney dares to follow the rule of law and charge him with a crime.
For your review, contemplation, and reaction, I have included the content of the Ex-President's most recent threat:
Donald J. Trump's "Truth Social" message sent at 1:08 AM, Friday, March 24, 2023:
"What kind of person can charge another person, in this case (sic) a former President of the United States, who got more votes than any sitting President (sic) in history, and leading candidate (by far!) for the Republican Party nomination, (sic) with a Crime (sic), when it is known by all that NO Crime (sic) has been committed, & also known (sic) that potential death & destruction in such a false charge (sic) could be catastrophic for our Country (sic)? Why & who would do such a thing? Only a degenerate psychopath that truely (sic) hates the USA!"
Should the American people conclude by your silence that you believe it's in your political interest to ignore a threat the Ex-President asserts could be "catastrophic for our country?"
Or do you have the political courage it would take to put the best interests of the American people ahead of political self-interest and publicly reject this and any other threat of violence your party leader decides to make?
Patiently waiting,
Davy Z Jones
