call for executions airs on pro-Trump media outlet

False claims of systemic fraud in the 2020 election will result in blood being spilled, a Republican congressman warned Thursday.

"What happens to them? Well, in the past, America had a very good solution for dealing with such traitors: executions."

There is no evidence of a mass conspiracy around the 2020 election, which President Joe Biden won.

Rep. Peter Meijer, a Michigan Republican who was first elected to the US Congress in 2020, denounced that rhetoric as obscene and dangerous.
