I’ve done a couple of these so far. One dealing with that whacked out sentence in the rape case in California. One in regard to anti-Semites threatening a reporter on twitter.
Earlier today, during her interview with Anderson Cooper, Melania Trump indicated that if she becomes First Lady she intends to focus on combating the negativity on social media.
Melania Trump tells CNN she wants her focus as First Lady to be combating negativity on social media.
Hmm.

Perhaps she should ask her step son in law why this is unacceptable and then speak with her husband and ask him to publicly tell his supporters that this is unacceptable. And it cannot go unremarked.
This is a death threat by Trump supporters against Politico reporter @Hadas_Gold. This is not trolling. This person should be in jail: pic.twitter.com/jqykYWDkJA

I do not know Ms. Gold, but she needs to know that others will stand up with and for her if necessary. And the same to anyone else who is being threatened like this on twitter and other social media platforms regardless of their ethnicity or religion or gender or sexuality.
Stuff like this is also why the owners of Twitter can’t get anyone to actually buy it.
