Ever accusation is a proud statement of violence from these typical Republicans.
May his calls for violence be answered back on him.
Like Charlie Kirk
An Arizona Republican lawmaker on Wednesday called for the execution of a Democratic congresswoman because she urged people upset with President Donald Trump to protest in the streets.
The post Gillette responded to claimed that Jayapal was making a call to violence because she said protesters should be “strike ready” and “street ready.” The Arizona Mirror watched the video in its entirety and found no calls to violence or advocating for overthrowing the government; it was focused on “non-violent resistance” to Trump and advising people on how to do that.
In contrast, Gillette has expressed support for the Trump supporters who stormed the U.S. Capitol in January 2021, who violently assaulted police officers and broke down doors and windows in order to access the building so they could stop Congress from certifying the 2020 election. In several posts on X, he called the 1,600 or so people who were prosecuted — and since pardoned by Trump — for their actions that day “political prisoners.”
He refused to answer questions when the Mirror reached him by phone on Thursday.
Coward.
“Until people like this, that advocate for the overthrow of the American government are tried convicted and hanged… it will continue,” Gillette said in response to a video of Jayapal.
Uhh so what was January 6th?
He’s right though. None of the Jan 6th insurrectionists were hanged and the behaviour continued.
I’m actually baffled that Americans have scoffed at treason so hard. A slap on the fucking wrist is all they got.
Plenty of us wanted to murk the bastards or at least seize assets, the problem is that due to civility bullshit there was no practical political will. Every fucking dem and independent could’ve wanted literally any punishment for it but short of lynching a couple Congress critters to get the ball rolling nothing would’ve motivated the required actions.
The most common tell in his enraged statements is that he, like most MAGA cultists, accuse others of exactly what he does regularly, and brazenly. For him, though, that is moral righteousness.
“The violent left”
Rep. John Gillette ® is an antifa member of the “radical Left” then, right? As defined by Republicans and Trump saying how it’s those groups calling for political violence.
You first, Mr GOP
Would be fucking nice if this community wasn’t complicit in suppressing dissenters like reddit mods
