Elon Musk and other top allies of Donald Trump are apparently calling for a Democratic Congresswoman to be put to death based on her words.
The official White House rapid response team posted a video on social media of Dem congresswoman Ilhan Omar, who says, “The one place where we thought we would never experience this is the U.S. goddamn States.”
The White House team posted that Omar had referred “to our great country as the ‘U.S. G*ddamn States.’ There is no circumstance in which she should refer to our country in this way. It is beyond disrespectful — it is appalling, disgusting, and SICK. SHAME ON HER!”
That led to Mike Lee, a GOP lawmaker, to chime in, “No member of Congress should *ever* refer to our country as the ‘U.S. G*ddamn States’” and then ask, “What should be the consequence of saying that?”
Elon Musk responded to Lee’s post just after midnight Eastern time on Sunday.
“Whatever the penalty is for treason,” Musk said, referencing that treason can be punishable by death.
Fringe MAGA ally Laura Loomer joined in, as well, by asking Musk’s AI chatbot about the potential punishment.
“@grok what is the real punishment for treason?” she asked with a loving emoji.
Grok replied, “According to US law (18 U.S.C. § 2381), treason is punishable by death, or imprisonment for at least 5 years and a fine of at least $10,000, plus ineligibility to hold any office under the United States.”
Politico’s Kyle Cheney suggested Musk was saying that Omar should be “put to death for offensive speech.”
