From The Politico, lost in the real tragedy of the last two days:

Colorado man charged with threatening Bennet

A Colorado man has been charged with assault for allegedly threatening to set fire to Sen. Michael Bennet’s Denver office and attack his staff, a day before the deadly shooting in Tucson.

According to court papers filed Friday, John Troy Davis, 44, made multiple calls to the Colorado Democrat’s office complaining about his Social Security benefits. He is due in court late Monday.

“I’m a schizophrenic and I need help,” Davis allegedly said in a phone call with a Bennet staffer. He later added: “I’m just going to come down there and shoot you all.” ... Davis allegedly said threatened to set fire to Bennet’s office. “To get your attention, I will go down there and set fire to the perimeter,” he said, adding that he “may go to terrorism.”
