“We should be looking for that bud, and if he travels anywhere — grab him like [Viktor] Bout and bring him over here.”

Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) fired back at a report on Wednesday of a Russian lawmaker saying the Arizona Democrat should be abducted and imprisoned for his comments on the tense Russia-Ukraine situation.
Gallego, who led a group of lawmakers visiting Ukraine over the weekend, said in an interview with CNN on Sunday the delegation had obtained information indicating Russia would “influence and/or invade Ukraine at some point.”
The Arizona Democrat told CNN that some of the consequences of Russian interference in Ukraine could be economic isolation or providing weapons to Ukraine that “will actually put a toll on the Russian troop movements and, you know, unfortunately that means we have to kill some Russians.”…Gallego quote-tweeted the Daily Beast story, writing “F— around and find out” with an emoji of the American flag.
