It was already thin and porous — the line between Republican members of Congress and the domestic terrorists who stormed the Capitol at Donald Trump's bidding on January 6 — but it only got more so this week, when an anti-vaccine activist embraced by Sen. Ron Johnson of Wisconsin went on "The Alex Jones Show" and unsubtly encouraged the enormous, conspiracy theory-addicted audience to commit acts of violence.
"The job of soldiers during war is to arrest and/or kill the enemy," ranted Ben Marble, who Johnson hosted at an anti-vaccine panel in the Russell Senate Office Building on January 24. "Well, first you have to know who the enemy is. And I'm clearly stating who the enemy is. The enemy is Nazi Klaus Schwab, Bill Gates of Hell, George Sore-ass, Dr. Death Fauci, Dementia Joe, Kamala Whore-is."
