Unless you live in Minnesota, you’ve probably never heard the name Shukri Abdirahman, who was the GOP candidate for Congress in Minnesota’s 5th District, which is currently represented by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D).
However, based on what she posted on Twitter Friday evening, Abdirahman is likely to become a household name, but not in a good way, according to Mediaite.
Twitter CEO Elon Musk announced late Friday afternoon he would be revealing “what really happened” when the story about Hunter Biden‘s laptop was banned on the social media app, and the New York Post Twitter account was suspended over the story.
After hours of delay, Musk retweeted a thread by Matt Taibbi that was eagerly glommed by some, but panned by many others as an overhyped and misleading packaging of cherry-picked internal documents that did not amount to much upon further scrutiny.
In other words, the so-called “revelation” about Hunter Biden’s laptop turned out to be a giant nothing burger.
Abdirahman, however, was outraged, and immediately went on social media to vent her spleen.
We can no longer get rid of tyranny by the ballots.
It’s only by bullets now.

I put my life on the line for my America and defended the very Constitution that calls for the removal of a tyrannical government and when that is necessary.
Anyone calling for my head or for my account to be suspended can go fuck off.

Reaction to Abdirahman’s hateful tweets was immediate.
If you cannot win at the ballot box, your ideas for leadership are bunk. If you do not support American democracy, go live in Russia, China or Iran where your “ideas” are more suitable.

As a veteran, I am ashamed and disgusted by people like you. Inciting violence is a crime.
