Pro-Hitler Host: Execute Those Who “Set Up Jan 6”

Media Matters has the transcript

STEW PETERS (HOST): For more in this and more insight on the immediate reaction of the January 6ers and their families, we’re now joined by Alex Sheppard, who he himself is a January 6 patriot. So a big weight off of your shoulders today, I imagine.

ALEX SHEPPARD: Yeah. Thank you for having me on, Stew. Like you said, glory to God, glory to everyone who kept pushing for this. There were a lot of people in Trump’s ear, JD Vance included, it sounded like, that really didn’t want the violent offenders included in this.

PETERS: We need to get to the bottom of who exactly it was that was responsible for this. You saw Biden on his way out pardoning the entire J6 Committee — all of his family, by the way, and rat-faced Tony Fauci on his way out as well. Preemptive pardons? I mean, this is criminal activity. These people need to be exposed. Whoever was behind this and set up January 6 from the beginning needs to be put on trial in the United States, tried for criminal treason, tried for crimes against humanity, tried for a coup, and they need to be convicted. And when they’re convicted, they need to face extreme accountability. He can’t just let this go. You agree?

SHEPPARD: One hundred percent. Like I said, this was an important first step. The next obvious step would be fire all prosecutors, all FBI agents who were involved in this witch hunt. Fire them. And, you know, there’s a lot of talk about class action lawsuits going on right now. I would rather we have some sort of situation where we just take the pensions of all these people who went after us, judges included. These judges are the worst in D.C. You got to take their pensions and give them to us and give the most money to the people who have been locked up for four years straight.

Read the full transcript. For those unaware, “extreme accountability” is Peters’ oft-repeated expression for executions. Peters, arguably the most antisemitic of right wing podcasters, regularly posts praise for Hitler and calls for executing prominent Democrats. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, elected Republicans continue to appear on his show. As you can see, Peters is wearing a “Christ Is King” shirt. That expression has been seized upon by Christian nationalists in recent months.
