The email said, per screenshots posted on GETTR, “Andy, I’m hopeful that someone puts a bullet in your head. It would be hilarious !!!! Die motherf***er … die.” Ngo purportedly tweeted the email message with the comment, “I experience this often where antifa lie about me to the point that others believe I’m a neo-Nazi who should be murdered (& they act on that belief). Sympathy is powerful & antifa seek to squash this human impulse so that you feel nothing when you see them beating their victims.” The journalist said Twitter locked him out of his account because of the post.
