Dem Rep. Shares Deeply Unsettling And Threatening Voicemail Left By Tucker Carlson Fan

Listen to this. It\u2019s the Tucker Carlson effect. Tucker attacks me. His fans respond with threats to kill my family. And Tucker knows exactly what he\u2019s doing.pic.twitter.com/PsSLYbctXa

I just know\u2026 I just know other countries are looking at us in moments like this and wondering why we have such a divide. Perhaps, they even laugh because of how ignorant something like this may seem. @TuckerCarlson, you deserve to lose your platform.https://twitter.com/repswalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

I don't understand why inciting this kind of behavior isn't met with serious jail time? Tucker knows what he is doing!https://twitter.com/RepSwalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

This is who the republican party and Fox News panders to. Racism, homophobia and violence are completely acceptable as long as they get those votes. They want the support of these people and they feed into it.https://twitter.com/RepSwalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

This guys proudly identifies himself at the end as a member of \u201cTrump nation.\u201d Listen to this call. This is who the Trump-supporting Republicans in Congress and across the country are catering to. It\u2019s sickhttps://twitter.com/repswalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

Swalwell is correct. @TuckerCarlson knows exactly what his "free speech" does to radicalize a certain type of individual. Eventually one will take it too far ( & you could argue 06 JAN was that moment), but someone will get hurt. \n\nRemember: With Liberty comes Responsibility.https://twitter.com/RepSwalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

The amount of hate in this message is incomprehensible to me and I am sure I am not alone. I pray for @RepSwalwell and his families protection.https://twitter.com/RepSwalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

This is pitiful. @FoxNews , AKA fox entertainment, why do you keep allowing this? Tucker Carlson needs to go before he gets someone killed, if he hasn't alreadyhttps://twitter.com/RepSwalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

These hateful, racist Nazi #Maga pigs that @TuckerCarlson gleefully and knowingly promotes need to be shut down and jailed.\nThis is wrong and it will only get worse.https://twitter.com/RepSwalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026

@TuckerCarlson #SorryExcuseForAHuman\nThis it's the hate and vitriol that your lies and what passes as a talk show causes. \nIf I were @RepSwalwell I would be trying out how to hold you accountable and definitely be turning your listener into the @FBIhttps://twitter.com/RepSwalwell/status/1451347945069154307\u00a0\u2026
