Michael Scheuer says it is "quite near time" to kill American citizens who oppose Trump.
Scheuer is a former senior CIA official and the author of the New York Times bestseller, Imperial Hubris. In a now-deleted blog post (cached version here) Scheuer singles out "Strzok, Comey, McCabe, Page, and Rosenstein; worshipers of tyranny, like the Democratic members of Congress, the Clintons, the FBI, and the Obamas; apparent traitors like Brennan, Hayden, and Clapper; all of the mainstream media; and the tens of thousands of government-admitted-and-protected, violent, criminal, and illegal immigrants." He looks forward to the "sheer, nay, utter joy and satisfaction to be derived from beholding great piles of dead U.S.-citizen tyrants is not one that will be missed if Trump does not soon do the necessary to save the republic."Oh, and the Trump idolator is (spoiler alert!) a raging anti- Semite:
Much of Scheuer’s essay focuses on blaming what he deems to be problems in American politics on “Jewish-Americans, and their host of well-paid human assets,” but at the end, he issues a call to arms and advocates for right-wing terrorism...Scheuer went off the cliff a while back, and predictions of his nadir have been sorely mistaken. This from 2014:
Scheuer’s career reached its terminal nadir last week, when he published a column endorsing an assassination of President Obama and Prime Minister David Cameron. In the modern media environment, it’s pretty hard to go too far. Advocacy of murder, however, does cross one of the last remaining lines.Neither terminal nor nadir, sadly. (Scheuer's a bloodthirsty little shit, isn't he?!)
What boggles is why this frothing loon (who was once in the highest echelons of the CIA) has not been living in an 8 x 10 padded cell for the last decade or so. Why wouldn't this be a felony under 18 U.S.C. § 875 and 18 U.S.C. § 876?
