I came across this is little story today, it's not breaking news. I suspect that a member of the housekeeping staff knows something about the bomb threat that required the sweep for weapons.

QuoteAccording to police in Secaucus, the bomb threat — which later was determined to be bogus — was called in to Hudson Regional Hospital on July 18. During a search, bomb detection dogs led investigators to an unlocked office closet containing dozens of firearms.
Among the weapons were 11 handguns and 27 rifles or shotguns, according to police. The closet also contained a .45 caliber semi-automatic rifle with a high-capacity magazine that was determined to be an assault rifle, and a 14-round high-capacity handgun magazine.
The arrested the guy the next day.
What the heck do you think this guy was doing? It sounds very ominous that he was keeping those weapons there.

Nice of you to admit that this specific case has nothing to do with leftists or anyone else damaging her business. Yeah...doxing is a favorite pastime of MAGAphiles. Let's do a deep dive into that right wing tactic that is so common today. You do remember the doxing of election officials because of republican election lies, right?

It's an interesting contrast in tolerance or lack there of. Nobody censured Sinema in the democratic party and that makes for a good comparison point of the political parties, IMV.
Except she is basically the reincarnation of hitler if you look at her Twitter page. They are calling for her to be removed from office.
QuoteThe House voted on Thursday to pass sweeping legislation that would authorize $858 billion in national defense funding and rescind the US military’s Covid vaccine mandate. The measure passed with wide bipartisan support with a tally of 350 to 80.
House lawmakers approved a final negotiated version of the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2023, which sets the policy agenda and authorizes funding for the Department of Defense. Following passage in the House, the measure will next need to go to the Senate to be approved before it can be sent to President Joe Biden to be signed into law.

Which members of the democratic leadership are calling for her removal or comparing her to Hitler? Do you believe that random tweets are the same as political party practice?
3 minutes ago, MaybeeRN said:That’s their prerogative. Look at all the recalls trying to get rid of democrats. Remember about glass houses.
No kidding... it's the prerogative of the Twitter accounts trash talking her... but that's not the same as members of the democratic party, much less party leadership, censoring Sinema or calling her a DINO. Your use of protection failed completely in this comparison.

Your complaints are anecdotal in nature please list all these great numbers of Republicans that have been censored.

Your "that" is nothing more than random tweets and the senator's constituents who feel like she conned them into thinking they were supporting a Democrat. That's not supportive of your assertion that democratic leadership at the state or national level have treated her the way that Liz Cheney or Kinzinger were treated because they dared to be critical of Trump. I don't need to provide a comprehensive list of republicans censored by the GOP when you made the misguided assertion about democrats and can't back it up with actual facts.
While you are searching for a Democrat to use as an example we can all consider what happened when Jeff Flake or Cindy McCain spoke out against Trump.

The headline at Fox is "Liberals throw a tantrum" and provide examples. There's a separate article about AOC's response.
There's another article there about Musk's support in which he said in a Tweet.
QuoteGood for@SenatorSinema! I hope more of our elected leaders act independently, aka in the interests of the people.
Speaking of Musk. The lead story, aka the most important story to Fox News at the moment of this writing is about Twitter. 'Twitter Files': Republicans pledge 'accountability' for social media company's suppression of conservatives....Elon Musk says candidates for office were suppressed on Twitter during their campaigns."

Doxing isn't just a "favorite pastime of MAGAphiles."
During the recent election, shots were fired at the home where Mr. Harrigan, the Republican candidate for North Carolina’s 14th District, and his family were staying. Prior to this happening, his Democratic opponent, Mr. Jackson's campaign had released an add that included a picture of residence Mr. Harrigan and his family were living in at the time. To his credit, Mr. Jackson's campaign discontinued the add.
