Pennsylvania man charged federally in shooting of Democratic office
Source: NBC News
A Pennsylvania man accused of firing into a suburban Philadelphia Democratic Party office is facing federal charges, prosecutors said.
Anthony Nero, 48, had been charged on state counts, but on Wednesday, he was arrested by federal authorities and is now charged federally with sending threatening communications and cyberstalking, prosecutors said Friday.
No one was hurt in the shooting, which involved three rounds being fired through a window at the Montgomery County Democratic Party headquarters in Norristown, according to officials. The shooting was discovered Jan. 20.
On Jan. 7, Nero allegedly sent a message through the county party's website in which he complained about a "stolen election"; threatened "violence is the only language you bloodsuckers understand"; and included the phrase "Trump you!" according to court documents.

This is the consequence when you have Republicans and right wing media continuing to push out lies about the election.

Maybe he was trying to write "Trump U." to boast he had attended Trump's noted University.

Montgomery county is a Democratic controlled county so yea I bet he is miserable.
Poor widdle tony will have some years to consider his political positions.
It does piss me off that he is out on 10% of 50 grand. That is a very low bail.
