    I would invite them all to a meeting to discuss that topic and ask them to repeat any threats in person, and then I would laugh loudly in their faces like maniac

      You don’t understand the power the Democratic leadership have. They literally can make these new members life hell and have no problem telling them so on fucking house floor. We need to get rid of the leadership of the DNC. And fuck these unnamed shit. He needs to name and shame and we should be protesting at their offices and homes.
