"State Rep. Cynthia Johnson, a Democrat from Detroit, has received voicemails saying she should be lynched, after she participated in a committee hearing last week that featured Rudy Giuliani and was centered on Michigan’s election results. State Rep. Mary Whiteford, R-Casco Township, replied to Johnson, saying her conduct during the hearing was "heartless" and Johnson should have "compassion for those you disagree with -- Whiteford took issue with Johnson asking a witness during the hearing to spell their name during the hearing. All speakers during public meetings are public record under the Michigan Open Meetings Act, and names are often recorded by a clerk for the public record."
While Cynthia is boo-hooing about all of the fake death threat texts and voicemails she is receiving, she didn't tell people why she is even receiving the threats...Cynthia isn't innocent, she wrongfully asked the witnesses at last week's Kracken hearing to testify under oath...WTF? Is this woman crazy? How dare you question the truthfulness of these people? You are no judge, you can't put these people under oath!!
And to make matters worse, you belittle people by asking them to spell their last name?? You heartless racist!! -- You were purposely trying to put that woman's life at risk by asking her to spell her last name -- so don't cry now that you are suffering the backlash for your racist actions...
