Have we really devolved into a society that applauds a candidate who says a medical official hired to guide the nation out of a killer pandemic should be stood in front of a firing squad and executed?<\/p>\n

Never mind. I know the answer.\u00a0It is yes. It sickens me to my core.<\/p>\n

John Benett is chair of the Oklahoma Republican Party. He told a cheering crowd that Dr. Anthony Fauci should be shot by a firing squad. The worst part? The crowd cheered and clapped at the congressional candidate’s hideous message!<\/p>\n

The Huffington Post reported:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re fighting communist Democrats, establishment RINOs!\u201d Bennett ranted in a video that Right Wing Watch shared online Tuesday and has now gone viral.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re fighting against a system that stole the election in 2020 and nobody had been held accountable,\u201d he continued, parroting former President Donald Trump\u2019s baseless election fraud claims. \u201cWe\u2019re in a war with bureaucrats that have forced vaccine mandates on us, mask mandates on us.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Oh my goodness.<\/p>\n

“In a war”? Is this clown serious? Yeah. He is.<\/p>\n

There is not a single thing I can say that is going to sink into the thick skulls of those who buy into that bullsh**.\u00a0 I am left only to condemn in the strongest terms possible the kind of hateful demagoguery that has become the norm within what used to be known as a great political party.<\/p>\n
