"SNIP.......

Missouri U.S. Senate candidate Eric Greitens (R) released a new ad that calls for people to hunt down Republicans who aren’t loyal to Donald Trump.

It shows Greitens with men wearing tactical gear breaking into a house, throwing down flash bangs and pointing their guns around.

The ad ends with Greitens saying: “Join the MAGA crew, get a RINO hunting permit. There’s no bagging limit, no tagging limit, and it doesn’t expire until we save our country.”

.......SNIP"

Later: Facebook banned the ad. https://www.axios.com/2022/06/20/eric-greitens-rino-hunting-video

But in America, it's just another day, with a repub politician calling for people to hunt down and kill whoever they disagree with.

Had an assassination threat against he, his wife, and 5 month old in the past few days -


This is a terrifying ad. And yes I watched it, and reported it to Twitter which has decided it is important for people to have access to.

RINOs can be beautiful creatures and presently they appear to be an endangered species. Shouldn't be hunted. Now a MAGAt infestation... I'd call in professionals for this. If I said we should squish the MAGAts in this particular context it would be a death threat I suppose. So professional help is required.

18. Call the NAVY Inspector General's Office

1-800-522-3451. Call them now.

Greitens is breaking Federal/DoD law with this commercial and he damn well knows it. He misrepresents himself, fails to provide caveat to his video and violates his NAVY (He's still in the Researves, folks.) oath.

It's not just that he's a disgrace to the uniform, he's a disgrace to NAVY SEALS everywhere. And we won't tolerate it.
