These Threatening Voicemails and Texts From Bernie Sanders Fans Are Unbelievable

The most gripping subplot in the 2016 presidential election this week doesn’t involve a yuge reality television star, or a yuge wild-haired revolutionary, or even a card-carrying prospective first woman president, but rather, the brouhaha that took place at Saturday’s Nevada Democratic convention. While the media tries to untangle just who was at fault for Bernie Sanders‘ fans acting out, Nevada political institution John Ralston has put out some of the threatening voicemails and text messages that Nevada Democratic Chair Roberta Lange has received from Sanders’ supporters in the aftermath, and they are unbelievable. Here’s a sample of what Ralston has posted, uncensored, and definitely NSFW or anywhere else:

Ralson also posted transcripts of some voicemails that were not included in the audio. Here’s a taste:

Voicemail – 1369

MALE CALLER: Oh Roberta, Roberta, Roberta, you old, old hag. Oh, we watched the whole thing in Nevada. You’re really kinda screwed, lady. Um, yeah. Really stupid. F*ck you.

Voicemail – 1433

MALE CALLER: That was pretty terrible. You probably just guaranteed fire is in Philadelphia. I’m not a psycho Bernie supporter, but there are some out there and you may have made a bad decision by completely ignoring the democratic process tonight. Thanks.

Voicemail – 1464

MALE CALLER: You’re a c**t. F*ck you!
