This is the order of events:

  1. Eman Abdelhadi, an activist and professor of sociology at the University of Chicago, tweeted: “Oh Kamala is NOT ready for Chicago. But don’t worry; we’re ready for her."

  2. Some people on twitter thought that this was a threat and called the feds.

  3. A single FBI agent called Eman and asked her if she intended to hurt the democratic nominee to which her lawyer responded "no".

That is literally all that happened.

I only got two replies into the twitter replies and had to close the article, so thank you for summarizing. People are fucking stupid.

Though the title itself is blatantly propagandist bullshit, thank you for taking the moment to shred it here. 🙇🏽‍♂️🤌🏽
