The Republican nominee to lead all of North Carolina’s 2500 public schools over 200 charter schools has said she would like a televised extra-judicial execution of Democratic former President Barack Obama for treason, and issued a call to assassinate then-President-elect Joe Biden as a traitor.

CNN’s KFile reports conservative activist Michele Morrow has “called public schools ‘socialism centers’ and ‘indoctrination centers.’” She is “a registered nurse and grassroots activist who homeschooled her children,” and “ran on a platform of supporting parental rights and opposing critical race theory.”

Morrow “has a history marked by extreme and controversial comments, including sharing baseless conspiracy theories and frequent calls for the execution of prominent Democrats.”

In May of 2020, Morrow wrote on Twitter, “I prefer a Pay Per View of him in front of the firing squad,” in response, CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski and Em Steck report, “to a user sharing a conspiracy theory who suggested sending Obama to prison at Guantanamo Bay.”

“I do not want to waste another dime on supporting his life. We could make some money back from televising his death,” Morrow said of President Obama.

Also in May of 2020, Morrow “responded to a fake Time Magazine cover that featured art of Obama in an electric chair asking if he should be executed.”

“’Death to ALL traitors!!’ Morrow responded.”

Later that same year, in December, Morrow suggested killing President-Elect Joe Biden. In response to a social media post that asked, “Will you follow Joe Biden’s advice and wear a mask for 100 days?” Morrow replied: “Never. We need to follow the Constitution’s advice and KILL all TRAITORS!!! #JusticeforAmerica.”

CNN also reports between 2019 and 2021, “Morrow made disturbing suggestions about executing prominent Democrats for treason, including Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper, former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Hillary Clinton, Sen. Chuck Schumer and other prominent people such as Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates.”
