So, if this is true, Capitol Police are referring Twitter engagement to local PDs for follow up. Apparently the woman in California had retweeted something the capitol police found threatening.
This is very not good.

I don't think it's much less shitty that cops are doing this independently than politicians ordering it
Also should people only tweet over Tor?
I think it's far worse that cops are doing this. There's a lot more cops available to monitor social media than any single politician.
I see now that your OP already said what I said. In theory the way to stop either is through the politicians
The FBI cracked Tor years ago when they busted the Silk Road guy.
Oh, right. I remember that now. Wonder if they would go to that length for a tweet about AOC but no one who tweets would use Tor to do so anyways.
Also he had poor opsec: https://wiki.freesideatlanta.org/images/3/3e/SilkRoad.Presentation.pdf https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/10/silk-road-mastermind-unmasked-by-rookie-goofs-complaint-alleges/
