Grimm is a former US Marine who served in Iraq, and then worked for the FBI. While at the Bureau, he was investigated for abusing his authority: threatening his date's husband ("I'll fucking make him disappear where nobody will find him") and pulling a gun in a nightclub. Grimm argued that reports of the incident were a "witch hunt" but the NYPD and FBi refused to release their files on the matter, and the New Yorker reporter who wrote the original story produced supplemental documents supporting his account.

Grimm is a Tea Party darling who was endorsed by Sarah Palin and Rudy Giuliani.

The American way.

In Washington DC that's against the law.

They're reading about poor Grimm in the UK, too. The Guardian speculates that it risks ending his political career.
Congressman apologises to reporter after threatening to break him 'in half' | World news | The Guardian

"Grimm's friend and fundraiser Diana Durand was arrested earlier this month for funnelling more than $10,000 to his campaign. Grimm is also facing an ongoing federal investigation into allegations that he or his campaign solicited cash from foreign donors."

It really should.

But this shows how far Congress has fallen.

Actually name-calling used to be normal in the early days of our government. Then they started making rules of decorum to keep the cross chatter and smartass remarks to a minimum. Now it's difficult to call someone a liar in Congress, when in the past you could do it to his face during congressional sessions.

Hey, if this were in FL, could the reporter have shot the CONgressman for threatening his life. Stand your ground and all that jive. Hey maybe the CONgressman made his threats in Washington DC cause those damn Dems won't let you concealed carry. CONgressman felt "safe" to make his threats. To a guy about 2/3rds his size. What a man.

An excellent point. IF this had happened in Florida, according to their law...that reporter could have shot the Congressman when he came back and started threatening him.

So Trayvon never laid a finger on G Zimmerman?

“After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won’t be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges ready to go.” (She was talking directly to about three of them. Sr. staff. And she wasn’t trying to be quiet about it at all.) - Vallarie Jarrett

Trayvon ran from gz but of course he fought back when gz caught him. He had every right to "stand his ground" and defend himself against the much bigger and armed thug gz.

Trayvon tracked Zimmerman down and suckerpunched him.

When is somebody gonna merge all of these threads?

It's okay to spy on them, use illegal wiretaps, threaten them off the record on numerous occasions ether over the phone or in person, yet this is the only instance of intimidation that matters to Democrats.

 

[whitehall]

In 2012 Clinton and Obama confident and carpetbagger mayor of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel actually assaulted reporter Michael Hastings and nobody on the right or the left thought iit was a big deal in the rough and tumble world of politics. All of a sudden the lefties are outraged about some hurtful words spoken by a republican. A couple of years ago Va. democrat congressman Jim Moran who had a long history of anger problems assaulted a Black child. Lefties snickered when the statute of limitations prevented Clinton form being prosecuted for rape. Is it a double standard when it comes to republicans or is the sissie left faking it?

My thoughts exactly. This Grimm character appears to be a grandstander, pulling a gun on someone in a bar and now intimidating this very frail-looking reporter.

I hope this incident isn't swept under the crony carpet.

It might appear that no one thought the Emanuel/Hastings incident was no big deal but Hastings was known by Emanuel's staff to be a relapsed drug (methamphetamine) addict, so Hastings was not willing to risk having that publicized.

(Excerpt)

The late journalist Michael Hastings had traces of drugs in his system when he died, the Los Angeles Times reported on Tuesday.

Hastings was killed in a car crash in Los Angeles in June. He was 33.

The coroners who examined him found "traces of amphetamine in his system, consistent with possible intake of methamphetamine many hours before death, as well as marijuana," the Times wrote. "Neither were considered a factor in the crash, according to toxicology reports."

The ultimate verdict: Hastings' death was an accident.

The coroner said Hastings' family had been attempting to get him to go to detox at the time of his death, and that he had relapsed into drugs a month before he died, after 14 years of sobriety.

Were it not for that unavoidably damaging revelation Emanuel could have been charged with a felony.

They surely do get pissy when they get caught.

The line of questioning was supposed to have been about the Congressman's reaction to the SOTU...

but then the snivelly li'l shit of a reporter couldn't resist sticking in a question about the Congressman's other stuff...

not part of what the Congressman agreed to...

'n if I was him, I'd be tempted to throw the li'l shit over the balcony, too...

A simple 'No comment' would have sufficed.

Exactly!! 'No comment' and walk away. Yep.

That's not the way it works.

And the Press is protected by the Constitution.

What Grimm did was pretty serious.

No that is the way it works. He to goon camera and discuss one thing, The little turd blind sides him and then goes all Michael Moore after the guy walks away.
