These types of situations are not political. Are there some politics involved? The answer is yes. When it comes to threats the political side of it doesn't matter. Threats have legal conciseness that come with them and can be very serious. The Justice Dept needs to get into threat investigations

Mary Ann Bittle

It's definitely ~very~ political, sadly. The MO GQP (formerly GOP) is really intent on protecting their KKK White Supremacist activities; no way they'd want to have qualified investigators involved.

When there are dangerous White Supremecists making threats at our the most local levels of government, yes, somebody should do something about it.

We are so fortunate that this socialist Garland did not get selected for the SCOTUS.

School board members should not be threatened because of differences of opinion. People should learn to disagree in a more civilized manner

They are already stretched too thin, while harassing Americans for other reasons.

The MO school board association yesterday separated from the NSBA who owes millions in backtaxes while Biden’s admin gave the leader of corrupt NBSA a high level position in his cabinet. Merrick Garland head of Justice Department’s son has a company promoting CRT. It’s personal Conflict of Interest!

Doj has enough other things to look into. Trump, Steve Bannon, Proud Boys, etc.

The sheep shouldn't be alarmed, because Trump said he would do this during his campaign. He comes from the business world, not politics. We actually have a president keeping the promises he made to those who elected him, a trait that is not common with career politicians.

Steve Baumann

Other countries have placed tariffs on our goods, far more so than we have ever done. I used to sell overseas,many customers of mine had to pay 25-30% in tariffs when the goods arrived. No, I am not worried. Excited is a better term. Fair and equal, globally.

Max DeYoung

I would be worried about the economic pain, if we did not reciprocate.
