GOP Official Calls for Democratic Congresswoman to Be Executed
(newrepublic.com)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Gillette
In September 2025, he called for Democratic Representative Pramila Jayapal to be executed for encouraging anti-Trump protests, claiming that she supported the "overthrow of the American government".[8][9] Gillette had previously expressed support for people arrested as a result of the January 6 United States Capitol attack, calling them "political prisoners".[9][10] Earlier that month, he had also made social media posts that reject the concept of Islamophobia while calling Muslims "savages" and "terrorists".[11]
He doesn't sound like a very nice person.
EDIT: Honestly, most of his Twitter stuff is yelling, too.
e.g. to pick a random item:
Senator Mark Kelly:
This Pride Month, we honor the courage and contributions of LGBTQ+ Americans who’ve fought—and continue to fight—for equality in Arizona and across the country. Our country is better because of you.
Representative John Gillette:
What about D-Day... always your pathetic pandering. Our country is free because from D-Day - Aug 17 th, 33K Americans died defeating tyranny. We remember that, not groomer awareness month.
The left violence strikes again....wait
Violence… against the left.
Republican state Representative John Gillette wrote of Jayapal on Wednesday: “Until people like this, that advocate for the overthrow of the American government are tried convicted and hanged … it will continue.” (“It” seemingly referring to political violence.)
Fuck this piece of shit. How about all your buddies who actually stormed the fucking Capitol and were pardoned for it, you fucking shitbag?
Also the reminder that your 2024 election agenda helped get us into this situation. Can't wait to see what you start posting for midterms.
Edit to add that they've likely blocked me, but were pushing the "Don't vote because of this one issue" agenda HARD prior to the presidential election last year, which helped usher in the shitstorm we're experiencing now.
Is this the same GOP guy that just went down for child porn, or do all these pedo-protectors just look alike now?
The resemblance is frightening.
The Right is the party of murder.
