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. Shes 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 Trumps 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 Trumps 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 Xs rules. The post has been archived.)

if all traitors were eliminated, there would be no repuke party

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.

Unfortunately, so are too many of the voters in NC.

"Death to (fill in the blank)!" qualifies. Oof.

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