Republican public schools nominee supports political killings and 'death' to Bill Gates

GREENSBORO, N.C. — Michele Morrow, the newly minted Republican nominee for superintendent of public instruction in North Carolina, wishes “death” on Bill and Melinda Gates. She’s advocated killing people she considers “traitors.” Despite seeking to oversee public education in a state of 10.5 million people, she is herself a homeschooler.

She has no prior political experience. She attended the Jan. 6 rally to support Donald Trump’s quest to overturn the 2020 presidential election. She received candidate training alongside a Proud Boys member. And yet, Morrow upset incumbent Catherine Truitt in the Republican primary on Tuesday.

Morrow, who rallied for Trump in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 6, 2021, has repeatedly made false claims that the 2020 election was stolen, while calling for death to Trump’s political enemies — and to former Microsoft CEO Bill Gates and his former wife Melinda Gates for promoting vaccines.

In a post on Twitter (now X) on Dec. 29, 2020, Morrow wrote: “I do support death to vaccine mongers like Bill and Melinda Gates.” (Raw Story reviewed the post on Wednesday, but it has since been removed for violating X’s rules. The post has been archived.)

If so, does she still want them killed?
She's actually is deranged, as opposed to Trump who calls anyone who opposes him deranged.
As an advocate of home schooling, she is uniquely unqualified to be the states superintendent of public education.
Morally, she's unqualified to hold any government position.

Come on: someone who refuses to send her own children to public school wants to run the public schools?
