Adam Kinzinger Has Defiant 3-Word Response To Donald Trump's Jail Threat

Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) told Donald Trump to “bring it on” after the president-elect said members of the House committee that investigated the Trump-incited U.S. Capitol riot “should go to jail.”

Kinzinger, a fierce and yearslong critic of Trump, was on the panel whose findings accused the returning POTUS of deliberately plotting to overturn his 2020 election loss to Joe Biden.

Trump’s threat, though, is “nothing more than the desperate howl of a man who knows history will regard him with shame,” Kinzinger wrote in the latest issue of his Substack newsletter.

“Let me be clear: we did nothing wrong,” the ex-lawmaker added, noting how the committee “was driven by facts, the Constitution, and the pursuit of accountability—principles that seem foreign to Trump.”

He was my rep. He was pushed out by redistricting. Even if he hadn't ticked off the cult, he couldn't win after the lines were redrawn. Too much blue in this district now.
And, I've met him and GFY is something I believe he would actually say if he got mad!

I suspect his new employer would prefer that he use more professional language.

threatens this, why are they never asked what law was broken?

Kristen Whelker just let Trump’s statement slide. No follow up. Nothing.

Kindergarten journalism, but 5 year olds usually ask follow up questions.
