Rep. Clay Fuller (R-GA) suggested that former Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) should face execution if he is found guilty of sex misconduct while in office. In a Monday interview, MAGA influencer Benny Johnson noted that Fuller had taken over former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene's (R-GA) seat as two lawmakers — Swalwell and former Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-FL) — had resigned amid misconduct allegations. "Well, and that was one of my first legislative priorities, and that's something that I'm currently working on, is to hold bad actors accountable in Congress," Fuller stated. "Those are like, we call them weasel words," Johnson reacted. "But it's like, hold them accountable. Like, okay, like people are sick of hearing that because nobody ever gets held accountable. So you can be real on our show. You can, you know, like, I know there's other shows that you have to stay all locked up for, but like what does that mean? What would you like to see?" "I want to see people in jail," Fuller replied. "And the thing is, we need targeted, specific legislation that provides stiffer penalties for people who are in a position of trust." "And then for our most serious crimes, if you are in a position of trust and you commit rape, then you should face the death penalty, in my opinion," he continued. "If you talk to people about how should we treat child molesters, how should we treat rapists, they would expect that the death penalty should be on the table for those crimes. And so that's what I'm advocating for." read more
