A spokesman for the Secret Service told the Gateway Pundit that the agency is “aware” of Madonna’s comments from Saturday’s (January 21) Women’s March in Washington, D.C. According to the GP, “the spokesman said an investigation would be opened but that the decision to prosecute rests with the U.S. Attorney’s office.”
Concern has come from a part of Madonna’s speech where she said that she has “thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House.” (The comment appears around 4:06 in the video below.)
Since Saturday, Madonna has tweeted (and deleted) to the president: “F— Donald Trump and F— the Secret Service.”
Shortly after, Madonna attempted to clarify herself in a post to Instagram. “I am not a violent person, I do not promote violence and it’s important people hear and understand my speech in it’s entirety rather than one phrase taken wildly out of context…
“I spoke in metaphor and I shared two ways of looking at things – one was to be hopeful, and one was to feel anger and outrage, which I have personally felt. However, I know that acting out of anger doesn’t solve anything. And the only way to change things for the better is to do it with love.”
