Updated 2:20 p.m. Aug. 18 with lieutenant governor calling for expulsion — Missouri Lt. Gov. Mike Parson said Friday the state Senate should expel Maria Chappelle-Nadal due to her Facebook comment in which she hoped President Donald Trump would be assassinated.
Parson and other top Missouri Republicans and Democrats, from Washington, D.C., to Jefferson City, already have called for Chapelle-Nadal to step down. The University City Democrat has so far resisted numerous bipartisan calls for her resignation after the comment was posted and later deleted Thursday.
Parson went a step further Friday, saying that if she doesn't resign by the Sept. 13 veto session, he'll seek to have her removed from office under an article in the Missouri Constitution. Gov. Eric Greitens later tweeted that he concurred with the suggestion.
"This is not a decision that was made lightly. I believe that Sen. Chapelle-Nadal’s remarks and unwillingness to take responsibility for what she said make it clear that she is no longer fit to serve our state," he said.
When asked why he wouldn't seek censure considering Chappelle-Nadal has one more session on her term, Parson said: "In my entire career I’ve never heard of a Missouri state senator seeking the assassination of the President of the United States. I believe this calls for … extraordinary action and we need, as the state of Missouri, to set an example for the other states of this country to make sure we’re not going to allow those things to happen."

You mean that never happened anywhere in the US??
I have never heard of a state Senator or a US Senator anywhere in the United States asking for someone to assassinate President Obama. If you have please show me when this happened.
When some woman posted a picture depicting Michelle Obama as a monkey, she got fired immediately..but this woman, who has political power, to call for the Assassination of our President and she’s still able to work, absolutely DISGUSTING..just shows how far gone into the gutter the left has become. I despised Obama, despised his policies, despised his agenda..NEVER did I wish him death, NEVER..not in my nature..impeachment of course..but never death
Remember when the Representative (Wilson?) said the words “you lie” during an Obama speech?
Yeah....
But the idiot is still not sorry, she just admitted she screwed up by posting it.
She definitely should be removed from office.
“Remember when the Representative (Wilson?) said the words “you lie” during an Obama speech?”
Yes I do and Obama was indeed lying. Wilson only told the truth.
This is the side that my corporation has decided does not hate
Johnson&Johnson quit on Trump council
Violence is a double edged sword,lady.
She needs to be impeached if she won’t resign!
Hopefully, this is the first step in removing numerous black racists and traitors from our legislative branches, including the traitors in the US congressional black racist caucus.
A black woman booted from a government job or public office? Don’t bet on it.
