Secret Service Investigating Trump Adviser Baldasaro for Clinton Execution Comments - NBC NewsThe Secret Service said Wednesday that they are looking into New Hampshire State Senator Al Baldasaro after he called for Hillary Clinton's execution for "treason."
Baldasaro is an adviser to the Trump campaign for veteran's issues and has appeared at Trump campaign events. He called for Clinton's execution by firing squad for her use of a private email server when she was secretary of state.
The U.S. Secret Service is aware of this matter and will conduct the appropriate investigation," Secret Service spokesman Robert Hoback told NBC News in a statement Wednesday.
Baldasaro first made the comments on the Jeff Kuhner radio showTuesday, and stood by his wordswhen confronted.
Trump campaign aide Hope Hicks told NBC News "of course Mr. Trump does not feel this way" when asked to respond to Baldasaro's comments.
The violent rhetoric towards the presumptive Democratic nominee has escalated this week, particularly at the Republican National Convention where political figures are calling for her punishment — ranging from spankings to public hangings.
New Hampshire state Sen. Al Baldasaro, a Marine veteran who advises Trump on veterans' issues and has campaigned with him in New Hampshire, said in an interview with NBC News that Clinton's use of a private server should be considered treason and "as far as I'm concerned, the laws of the land on treason could be a firing squad if she's found guilty.
I'm a fan of context.
He's an idiot for saying it. Stupid is, stupid gets.
After making the comments to Kuhner on July 19, Baldasaro told WMUR on July 20 in New Hampshire that:
I’m a military man first, and anyone who takes information about our CIA or Secret Service and people at our embassy and puts it out on a server where anyone can grab it, putting Americans in danger to be killed, should be held accountable.
Lets see... The context is he still thinks she should be executed because he thinks she's a treasonist.
The so-called context didn't change much about the OP.
But I'll give him this... his idiotic, over-the-top rhetoric fits in well with the Trump campaign.
:doh
As usual, you left out one key ingredient.
" ... the laws of the land on treason could be a firing squad if she's found guilty".
nice of him to point out the punishment for treason... as if no one knows this.
Trumpeters are champs of throwing stones, dodging responsibility for having thrown stones and then bitch louder than holy hell when hit with a grain of sand.
There is no reason to "investigate" this.
No threat was made.
The man is entitled to an opinion.
No one accused him of making threats
He said that Clinton should be executed
Trump Adviser Stands by Call for Clinton to Face '''Firing Squad''' - NBC NewsNew Hampshire state Sen.

Interesting response to your attempt to misrepresent facts so easily viewed. Business as usual among socialist progressives, but rather laughable among rational thinking people.
Trump Adviser Stands by Call for Clinton to Face '''Firing Squad''' - NBC News
That is an opinion. :shrug:
Now the topic is me I suppose.
Dodge away. Dodge away.
Not dodging at all. Senator Baldasaro stated that if Clinton is found guilty of treason, she should face the firing squad.
You made it about you when you lied about this fact.
If you don't want people to call you out, don't lie about the facts.
eace
There ya go... defend him. I'm fine with you dodging around trying to pretend this is a-OK as long as the barrels of such comments don't point at your boy.
There is nothing to defend. He said that if she is found guilty of treason, she should face a firing squad. That is one of the options prescribed by law.
The only one dodging is you powerRob. You lied, and you're trying to figure out how to save face. Don't worry, it too late.
No one lied sonny boy. Back to your delusion. But with trump-like thin skin, I suspect you too won't ever let anything go... so go ahead.
