Arizona man facing charges for threatening Adam Schiff
Source: Politico
An Arizona man indicted in October for threatening to kill Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) told police he was likely reacting to a Fox News segment when he left the alcohol-fueled voicemail, according to newly filed court documents.
Jan Peter Meister, a convicted sex offender with a long rap sheet, was indicted on Oct. 23, 2019 for leaving the voicemail with Schiff’s Washington, D.C. office. After a search of Meister’s residence, prosecutors also charged him with illegal possession of firearms, including a loaded .380 caliber handgun, a 9mm handgun and an American Tactical Rifle, along with 700 rounds of ammunition.
A motion filed late last week by Meister’s attorneys revealed a portion of his interview with police during which Meister apologized for making the call and said that he may have been reacting to commentary on Fox News.
“Meister responded that he watches Fox News and likely was upset at something that he saw on the news. He stated that he strongly dislikes the Democrats, and feels they are to blame for the country's political issues,” according to the police summary of the interview. “Meister stated that he likely Goggled [sic] the congressman’s office number to make the call.”

They made me do it. 
Gee, wouldn't it be sad if he were locked up by November? One less vote for McSally.
I saw it this weekend visiting hubby’s family in Arizona. Brother-in-law is a big maga-rat who attacked my husband and I of being liberals who are destroying this country and called the impeachment bogus, a hoax and witch-hunt. I was shocked because he never was as political until mf45. He watches fox when his wife who is a liberal is not home. I was so unnerved I asked my sister in law if he has a gun. Another nephew who also lives in Arizona once reached down for his gun when I asked him uncomfortable questions.
But a lot of Californians are moving to Arizona and it’s definitely turning a purple shade of blue
