In a video clip obtained by Right Wing Watch, Santilli pleaded with members of the military to take action.
"Get the military, whatever few are left that are gonna side with the people," he said. "That you military personnel and you people with guns and badges and law enforcement will succumb to the will of the people."
"And ultimately, we demand, we absolutely demand that the criminals, the criminals in this country, if you want them held accountable, the criminals are Barack Obama, Eric Holder, Susan Rice," he continued, "this entire criminal cabal that came about as a result of the murder of John F. Kennedy, the people that perpetrated the murder of John F. Kennedy, rise up to that."
"Military, join us and put all of them up against a concrete wall... and do what we must do to save not just our country, the entire world," he implored.

There isn't even internal consistency within their conspiracy theories.

(61,539 posts)President Obama completed his term in January 2017 but Trump and his followers can't get over the fact that a Black man was president. A highly educated, smart, handsome, well dressed Black man who won reelection. It just eats at these racists.

(43,138 posts)Edwin Anderson Walker (November 10, 1909 October 31, 1993) was the only U.S. Army general officer to resign his commission amid his tour of duty in the 20th century. After serving in World War II and the Korean War Walker became better known for his white supremacism and extreme political opinions, often made on-duty and in uniform for which he was criticized by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Walker resigned his commission in 1959, but Eisenhower refused to accept his resignation and gave Walker a new command of the 24th Infantry Division in Augsburg, Germany.
Walker again resigned his commission in 1961 after being publicly and formally admonished by the Joint Chiefs of Staff for allegedly referring to Eleanor Roosevelt and Harry S. Truman as "pink" in print. Walker had also violated the Hatch Act of 1939, they charged, by attempting to influence the votes of his troops. President John F. Kennedy sought to avoid the scandal of the resignation of a US General, so he offered Walker a new command in Hawaii. Walker refused it, and instead chose to move to Dallas, Texas, where anti-communist supporter H. L. Hunt had offered to finance Walker's campaign for governor of Texas.
In early 1962, Walker campaigned to become governor of Texas and lost the Democratic primary election to the eventual winner, John Connally. In October 1962, Walker was arrested for promoting riots at the University of Mississippi in protest against the admission of black student James Meredith into the all-white university. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy ordered Walker committed to a mental asylum for a 90-day evaluation, but the ACLU and psychiatrist Thomas Szasz protested along with rightist groups, and Walker was released in five days. Attorney Robert Morris in early 1963 convinced a Mississippi grand jury to acquit Walker.
Walker reported that he was the target of an assassination attempt at his home on April 10, 1963, but escaped serious injury when a bullet fired from outside hit a window frame and fragmented. After its investigation into the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the Warren Commission concluded that Walker's assailant had been Lee Harvey Oswald.

The reality is JFK lost his brother in the fight against the NAZI bastards.

He got 'time served' for the Bundy/Bunkerville crap, and the charges were dropped on the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge case.
He properly should still be sitting in cell for those instead of spewing hate to radicalize others.

(16,288 posts)Thanks to his being stupid enough to attend a big Trump rally, where he was packed in with other MAGAts like sardines, at the height of covid. There's a whole subreddit dedicated to giving awards to other dead covidiots in his "honor":
