Florida Woman Threatened to Assassinate Kamala Harris in Violent Videos: Feds
“You gonna f*ckin’ die 50 days from today, I swear to f*ckin’ God,” Niviane Petit Phelps allegedly warned in one.

A Florida woman sent videos to her incarcerated spouse in which she threatened to assassinate Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a complaint filed in South Florida federal court. “If I see you in the street, I’m gonna kill your ass Kamala Harris,” Niviane Petit Phelps of Miami Gardens allegedly said in one. “I’m going to the gun range, just for your ass,” Phelps reportedly said in another. In a video dated Feb. 18, 2021, the complaint says she warned, “50 days from today, mark this day down, stupid bitch, Kamala fuckin’ Harris vice president. You gonna fuckin’ die 50 days from today, I swear to fuckin’ God.” Photographs intercepted by prison authorities allegedly show a smiling Phelps posing at a gun range holding a pistol, standing next to a target riddled with bullet holes.

On Feb. 22, Phelps applied for a concealed carry permit. Less than two weeks later, the Secret Service showed up at her home. After first refusing to speak with agents, Phelps soon agreed to an interview. She claimed that she was upset about Harris becoming VP because she didn’t believe she was “actually Black,” and that she didn’t like the way she held her purse during the inauguration, the complaint says. However, Phelps stated that she was “past it,” and that she had no intention of going to D.C. to carry out the plan she had previously described. “Didn’t you say we were going,” interjected Phelps’ daughter, to which Phelps immediately responded, “No, we’re not going.”

the concealed carry permit? Was she arrested for making death threats to the Vice President of the United States? Did the police confiscate any other guns she owned?

Just think if she lived in a state that allowed concealed carry without a permit...

I mean really these are people who can no longer think. Like their idol Donald Trump, they're using fried brain material so that all their arguments/defenses are incomprehensible. Donald has editors willing to cleanup his off-the-wall interviews. But for someone like this? What you hear/read is what you get--rage addicts responding to nonsense.

I''m laughing but I guess I shouldn't be because of the hate-filled attitudes these people continue to exhibit and act on. Maybe we should give this woman a point on creativity to calm her down. I have never, ever heard anyone criticize or hate on another woman because of the way she carries her purse.

That's brand new from where I live. It's hard to contemplate the number of chipmunks populating this woman's brain.

Way past cuckoo's nest indeed!

and she backed it up with trying for a concealed carry permit and pictures at a range showing her practicing. This is our Vice President, surely there are charges here? How much else do you have to do to become a threat to one of the 2 uppermost leaders in our country necessitating removal from your freedom to do such harm?

I don't think someone seeing someone else as "not black enough" is internalized oppression. Quite the opposite, really.

Humans can be very racist.

A shot of thorazine.

See if that helps.

If not it's because of who she is.
Lock her up than.
