James Dale Reed, 42, of Maryland was arrested after admitting to writing a letter threatening Democratic voters.

His letter also laid out his plan to kidnap former Vice President Joe Biden and Senator Kamala Harris, then murder them on national television.

Reed was captured on video by a Ring door camera delivering his letter in the early morning of October 4.

Part of the letter read:

"This is a warning to anyone reading this letter if you are a Biden/Harris supporter you will be targeted."
"We have a list of homes and addresses by your election signs. We are the ones with those scary guns, We are the ones your children have nightmares about…"

Local news outlet WJZ13 reported the rest of the message was too obscene to repeat, saying:

"The rest of the message is too graphic to detail, but claims that they will allegedly beat Biden and sodomize Harris before executing them on national television."


Reed initially denied writing the letter when the Secret Service questioned him on October 13, but later admitted he was, in fact, the author.


Two days later, he was arrested and charged with "voter intimidation and threatening mass violence."


The Secret Service reported Reed was previously under surveillance for a "threat against a protected person" back in 2014.

When Donald Trump's incendiary comments and refusal to denounce extremist groups inspires people like Reed to take action and threaten lives, there's no denying the President's rhetoric is legitimately dangerous.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
