    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Frederick Francis Goltz, 52, of Lubbock, pleaded guilty earlier this year to interstate threatening communications.

    Goltz was sentenced Thursday by U.S. District Judge James Wesley Hendrix, who also ordered three years of supervised release following the prison term.

    Trump, a Republican, was indicted on felony charges earlier this week for working to overturn the results of the 2020 election in the run-up to the violent U.S. Capitol riot by his supporters.

    Prosecutors say court records show that two days later, Goltz responded to a post about the elections official with the comment, “He’s got a WIFE that is a lawyer, too.

    Prosecutors say that an FBI investigation found Goltz had a long history of making threatening statements against a variety of people.

    Court records showed that in November 2022, he advocated for “a mass shooting of poll workers and election officials” in precincts he believed had “suspect” results.


    I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    He says poll workers should be shot. Police are going to stop tracking him a few months before federal elections.

    I don’t really care what he does 34 of the preceding 36 months, but maybe we should just keep our eyes on him a couple months every other year?

      He is a menace to society.
