Following the removal of the Confederate battle flag from the grounds of the South Carolina Capitol, Breitbart “editor” John Nolte launched a frenzied deluge of hateful comments on Twitter; dozens and dozens of crazed tweets like this one:

Where’s the ceremony to take down this symbol of hate, bigotry and oppression? http://t.co/leoJcSGjXp pic.twitter.com/cJIH8sOJR9

I just happened to be looking through his timeline when I saw another tweet go by from a user named @morningforfl — a guy who’s running for Congress
in Florida’s 7th District, as a self-described “independent Republican.”

The tweet Morning posted in reply to Nolte’s insane ranting was even farther out there than Nolte’s craziness; I posted a link to the tweet with this comment:

One of @NolteNC’s fans, with typically well-reasoned response. https://t.co/fmnaPgdatt

And Congressional candidate John Morning replied to me, “So you’re opposed to religious freedom?” To which I sarcastically replied:

Don’t worry - the secret FEMA camps are all set up. We liberals are just waiting for Christmas to make our move. @morningforfl @NolteNC

Well, there’s a reason why I’m not posting the tweets Morning sent to Nolte and myself: he subsequently blocked me and then deleted both tweets, perhaps because he realized Florida’s 7th District has a sizeable number of Jewish voters.

Why is that relevant? Because here’s what Morning tweeted to John Nolte (screenshots were sent to me by several people, including @gabi_sbd and @bedsandwich — thanks!):

There you have it; a Republican candidate for Congress who follows raving crackpot John Nolte, believes Christians are being “persecuted” in America, and thinks “liberals” are about to set up concentration camps for Christians any day now, just like the Nazis did to the Jews. And then deletes his tweets when they’re noticed. (I wasn’t going to write an article about this, until he tried to cover it up.)

This has been your glimpse into the mind of one of the people who thinks he should run the government of the United States.
