She did her best to pretend that wasn't what she was doing with some lame disclaimer, but anyone that watched the video knows what came out of her mouth, and what her history has been since her daughter's death.

The mother of Ashli Babbitt, Micki Witthoeft, apparently thinks there's no such thing as bad publicity, even if it means getting arrested again.

Witthoeft, who has been joining lots of marches and protests since her daughter's death in support of the other insurrectionists on January 6th was captured on a new video circulating across the internet where she's calling for Nancy Pelosi to be hanged.

She did her best to pretend that wasn't what she was doing with some lame disclaimer, but anyone that watched the video knows what came out of her mouth, and what her history is since her daughter's death.

Here are Witthoeft's remarks from Joe.My.God. where she's basically saying they've got the power to hang Pelosi, and she's pretty defiant, and met by a lot of applause and loud cheers.

Being an equal opportunity rope swinger, I think Nancy Pelosi belongs at the end of a rope. Again these are not threats because I don’t want to get hit with seditious conspiracy or some other charge. So while you’re writing the indictment FBI, get that straight. I said they deserve it, not that I’m going to do it. I know that someday there will be justice, but I’m not a vigilante, and I don’t plan on stringing Nancy Pelosi or [Capitol Police Officer] Michael Byrd up. So I will have to wait for God to give them their justice, or the American people. Because it’s within our power.” – Micki Witthoeft, mother of dead Ashli Babbit, inciting terrorism to the cheers of cultists in the audience.

I believe the term stochastic terrorism applies here as it does with most of the Trump cultists. It's long past time for the Justice Department to put a lid on these threats.
