California man arrested for threatening to kill FCC Chairman Ajit Pai's family over net neutrality
A 33-year-old resident of Norwalk, California was arrested today for sending threatening emails to Federal Communications Commission Chairman Ajit Pai last year, according to the US Department of Justice. The threats, sent by an individual named Makara Man, were made primarily in the second of three messages sent to Pai's official FCC email accounts in late December, just days after the FCC voted to repeal net neutrality protections.
The first email allegedly accused Pai of causing the suicide of a teenager through his actions that led to the net neutrality vote. The second email contained an explicit threat against members of Pai's family, as well as a listing of three locations in and around Arlington, Virginia where Pai is said to live. The third email allegedly contained a photo of Pai and a separate photo of Pai and his family.

The answer of course was that Ajit would have been on the board regardless of who the president was, he was recommended by Obama and got a "bi-partisan" vote in both houses of the legislature.
The parties do this alot, you are correct. If they cared about abortion they would have codified something when Obama held both houses, same for almost all of the issues the Dems say they care about. Republicans have had similar times where they had the ability to act but sat on their hands. Afterall, if either side dealt witht he gun issue it would be one less issue to argue about at election time.
