Republicans Cheer As Congressional Candidate Demands Fauci’s Execution By Firing Squad
“We’re fighting against a system that stole the election in 2020 and nobody had been held accountable,” Bennett continued, parroting former President Donald Trump’s baseless election fraud claims. “We’re in a war with bureaucrats that have forced vaccine mandates on us, mask mandates on us.”
Bennett then railed against something he described as “wokeness confusion,” which he alleged is being pushed “down our throats now.”
Then came his sinister line about Fauci, who has been targeted by repeated death threats for his public health work during the coronavirus pandemic.
“And by the way, we should try Anthony Fauci and put him in front of a firing squad,” said Bennett, not really expanding on what crime he believes Fauci has committed.
Then he added: “And for the Secret Service, if they’re listening, I’m not advocating we kill Anthony Fauci … until he’s convicted of his crimes through a court.”
He called for the firing of Fox News’ Jesse Watters after the TV host in December urged young conservatives to “ambush” him and “go for the kill shot” with questions.
“The only thing that I have ever done throughout these two years is to encourage people to practice good public health practices: to get vaccinated, to be careful in public settings, to wear a mask,” Fauci said at the time .

Who in today's gqp isn't a fucking whackjob?
looks like he has the knuckle dragging voters locked down in the coming election...

What crimes you fucking moron? Isn't calling for the assassination of a public figure a crime?
Yeah, but it's okay if you're today's gqp.
“Isn't calling for the assassination of a public figure a crime?”
An actual indictable crime…plus an indication of just how stilted, just how wilted, and just how dangerous the discourse has become when this kind of rhetoric has somehow become acceptable.
Elon is not the answer, just another symptom.
I'm glad I have only about 10 - 15 years left on this planet
Let us go out together, Trout…this is the saddest I’ve ever been in trying to understand my family, my friends, and the direction in which we are headed.
“Signs, signs…everywhere a sign…”
I feel just like Buzz - let's see who can guess the movie this is from...
Perfect!
I like Snuffy's idea. But I need to get stoned first
Easy....one of my favorite movies
Thelma and Louise
Not a bad way to go…rugged individualism at its highest. Waste of a great ride aside.
Let's rent a Tesla instead
There is an idea. Just park close to the canyon and then hit the 'smart summons' button and it will drive itself over the cliff.
“Let's rent a Tesla instead.”
As long as it is a convertible.
‘Free wind in our hair’ and all.
I miss the 60s, marching against the war and making love to braless hippy chicks all day long.
I started first grade in 1968
Everybody has/had their era. So glad I didn't miss the 60s. An amazing time!
All I do now is sit on the sofa scratch my ass and watch DVDs from the library.
I feel the same way.
buying weed on "the hill" for $80 a pound and offered everything else at bargain rates...
Which hill? We had a hill at KU above the stadium where we grilled, smoked, drank and sometimes even got around to watching the football games.
CU. boulder. tulagi. the sink.
1953
A shame what happened to the fish at Tulagi when they were shut down by the IRS.
Was a VIP back then and many of us tried to save the hundreds of exotic fish upstairs.
The IRS wouldn't let us do that and they all died. I loved zoning out on those fish.
Sat across the aisle from Bonnie Raitt at Tulagi one night when she leaned back in her chair to swig on a gallon jug of red wine and fell over. I helped her up and stole her jug of wine.
Was a roadie for the band playing that night called Gerard McMann and the Family Circle of Music. I miss those days.
funny, I can't remember any of the details of the interior of that venue for some reason...
It's called alcohol. One of those fire and forget weapons.
"Here you go Texan1211.
Trump’s fake electors: Here’s the full list
Groups from Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, New Mexico, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin all sent lists of so-called alternate electors to the National Archives after the 2020 election.
January 6 Committee subpoenas ‘alternate electors’ in seven states
Trump campaign officials, led by Rudy Giuliani, oversaw fake electors plot in 7 states
What you need to know about the fake Trump electors
Prosecutors in multiple states are investigating false Electoral College submissions"
"But that's all no big deal and nothing should be done about it according to certain posters, since they didn't get away with it, right?
Only a fucking moron would believe that just because they didn't get away with it, that's they didn't break any laws."
This from ozzwald
"LOL! Not how it works."
This from another poster
"I'm afraid it is. Perhaps you can elaborate on why you think otherwise?"
Then myself
I'm afraid IT IS NOT! Because the 'attempted armed robbery' didn't pan out they shouldn't be locked up for 'attempting armed robbery'?????????
I think you get near the time for an attempted crime as actually completing a job. I think it's a 2-3 years less for an attempted crime like robbery or murder. I could be wrong
Here's a website where you can ask a lawyer questions like this:
That would make sense - just because it didn't pan out - doesn't mean they shouldn't get some kind of harsh time for such an offense - like for attempted armed assault or murder.
I meant to say attempted armed robbery - but that should include armed assault also
Huh, they are disrespecting the flag in that picture. Wearing the flag as clothing is a no-no.
It's ok. They're gun-loving republicans. Rules don't apply to them
Oh, that's right. I forgot. Bad me.
50 years ago they found that and men with ponytails very unamerican...
long haired hippie freaks please apply
Caught covid over 2 years ago and told myself that I wouldn't get my hair cut till I was over it. It's now well past my shoulders since I turned out to be a long hauler.
There is no end in sight.
I forgot how much hassle long hair can be. It hasn't been this long since the 70s.
Morning CJ..when you do get it cut can always donate it to the cancer council.
Here people donate their long hair so it can be turned into wigs etc for people who have lost their hair. Even young kids do it to raise donations via sponsors as well..
But it could be down to your knees the way it's mutating and sticking around..
Donate HELL! I'm getting back into the rock-n-roll business!
Then I'll auction it all off to the highest bidder at the Grammys.
My toenail clippings and earwax will go for a premium as well.
I'll fake my own death and get triple the price.
Elvis did it, why can't I?
Same here. I missed my last appointment right before the pandemic. Hasn't been cut since.
The other day I went to take a bite of a sandwich and got a mouthful of hair with it. I was like, wtf...
Going out in the wind sucks.
Mostly wear it in a ponytail now. Not sure if I will ever cut it again.
Found myself humming that Cowsills song the other day.
"Gimme a head with hair. Long beautiful hair. Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen".
Still waiting for it to stop by itself.
Lol, they look like Waldo from Where's Waldo books.
You are right, they do. Just need the hat & glasses.
I want to throw a book at 'em...the US Flag Code
They look like the ignorant morons that they are.
Is there any other kind?
Possibly redundant?
No. American flags can be bought with Trump's likeness on them. Chinese made of course.
“American flags can be bought with Trump's likeness on them…”
…and flown with misplaced patriotism.
Would say the same to my next door neighbor, but as he chooses to open carry on our street, in our neighborhood, and in our town…none of which pose a threat…it is not worth putting my life in danger.
Reading that back is a sad indictment of the times in which we find ourselves.
The MAGA roam. Prepare.
This liberal tends to pack a small .380 whenever I go to town.
Even though Johnny Cash advised against it.
What I find extremely annoying is some people on this site keep telling us that if we stop talking about him, Trump will go away when we all see the goddamn Trump 2024 flags everywhere.
the manson family...
Come on now, you know it is ok for your kids to hear death threats.
Just don't mention them queerosexuals.
God forbid you mention them homos!
She didn't say it, it was actually ANTIFA disguised as her and her family.
Fresh from the ANTIFA riot at the capital.
Bennett wants to execute Fauci? If I may ask, for what?
Whatever. In the Neo-World now occupied by McVeigh, I am sure there are smiles of approval for this--------family.
For using science to disagree with Trump insanity?
OIC. In other words, the tantrum of the MAGA mind fretting over the inconvenience of another possessing a mind that actually works?
There really is a sickness pervasive in the modern Republican Party. If they take over Congress and Trump is elected again, it will be like a metastasized cancer.
When Putin goes down. The American right-wing will follow suit. Putin's 'info-machine' bought them, bred them and installed them here.
How do you see this info-machine breading people?
You should stick with toupees. Easier to understand.
Do we really knead to explain it to you?
I don't have any experience with toupees, what do you mean?
I'm not sure I fully agree. The right-wing in America pre-dates Putin, although he has certainly exacerbated the problem with them greatly.
Do you think that you can meet my kneads?
Definitely not.
Weak hands?
You are certainly playing a weak hand.
You're the one with the faux offer to "knead" it.
You're having a difficult time understanding what's going on.
A few eggs, flour, bread crumbs and a bit of vanilla?
We've been through this before. Or have you already forgotten about our conversation centering on a specific Ohio congressman?
The right-wing in the distant past, The John Birch Society as an example, were wailing on how Fluoride in the drinking water would make us communists. And other things too.
Today's right wing has evolved. And Putin's Russia has been 'working' on the American population for decades. Uterus politics, guns everywhere, racial disparity, dirty water/air and crumbling infrastructure to name a few.
