Al Green (D-Tex.) The lawmaker held a town hall event and played several recorded messages left at his offices in Texas and D.C., as first reported by The Houston Chronicle. “You’ll be hanging from a tree,” one caller said in a voicemail. “You ain’t going to impeach nobody,” the caller added. “Try it and we will lynch all of you.” The callers often used racial slurs and called Green the n-word for his firm position on Trump. “We are not going to be intimidated,” Green said Saturday as reported by CBS News. “We are not going to allow this to cause us to deviate from what we believe to be the right thing to do and that is to proceed with the impeachment of President Trump.”
