    In September 2025, he called for Democratic Representative Pramila Jayapal to be executed for encouraging anti-Trump protests, claiming that she supported the “overthrow of the American government”.[8][9] Gillette had previously expressed support for people arrested as a result of the January 6 United States Capitol attack, calling them “political prisoners”.[9][10] Earlier that month, he had also made social media posts that reject the concept of Islamophobia while calling Muslims “savages” and “terrorists”.[11]

    He doesn’t sound like a very nice person.

    EDIT: Honestly, most of his Twitter stuff is yelling, too.

    e.g. to pick a random item:

    Senator Mark Kelly:

    This Pride Month, we honor the courage and contributions of LGBTQ+ Americans who’ve fought—and continue to fight—for equality in Arizona and across the country. Our country is better because of you.

    Representative John Gillette:

    What about D-Day… always your pathetic pandering. Our country is free because from D-Day - Aug 17 th, 33K Americans died defeating tyranny. We remember that, not groomer awareness month.
