Former CNN host Reza Aslan joined several other verified Twitter accounts in threatening violence if Senate Republicans attempt to fill the Supreme Court seat of the late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

“Over our dead bodies. Literally,” Aslan wrote in response to a tweet saying Sen. Mitch McConnell intends to fill Ginsberg's seat, shortly after it was announced Friday that she had died at the age of 87.

Aslan also tweeted, “If they even TRY to replace RBG we burn the entire f---ing thing down.”

“If McConnell jams someone through, which he will, there will be riots,” Washington Post and GQ writer Laura Bassett said.

Beau Willimon, a Writer’s Guild of America president, told his roughly 162,000 followers that “we’re shutting this country down if Trump and McConnell try to ram through an appointment before the election.”

Director of Communications at the Anti-Violence Project Eliel Cruz agreed with Willimon’s calls to shut things down by calling on people to march on Washington and “just shut it down ourselves.”

Aaron Gouveia, author of a new book titled Raising Boys To Be Good Men: A Parent's Guide to Bringing Up Happy Sons in a World Filled with Toxic Masculinity, responded to McConnell’s call to fill the vacant seat by tweeting, “F--- no. Burn it all down.”

Writer and LGBT activist Charlotte Clymer opted not to wait until Republicans pushed a Ginsburg replacement through, deciding instead to head straight to McConnell’s home on Friday night.

We’re now walking to Mitch McConnell’s house to protest,” Clymer said before tweeting out the intersection that McConnell allegedly lives on.

“His house is entirely dark,” she said later. “Significant police presence out front. It’s clear that he’s not here, as confirmed by a neighbor who is not fond of him. People are going home.”

To quote Edgar the bug, “Your proposal is acceptable.”

[Okeydoker]

What do you expect from a filthy Iranian?

[null and void]

I shoulda read ahead...

[Cvengr]

They already burned it down, .... before her death. Literally.

Now that must really burn them up. /s

Aslan also tweeted, “If they even TRY to replace RBG we burn the entire f---ing thing down.”

Looks like liberal thugs think the United States is already a commie hellhole and they have the right to rain violence down on us if we don't obey their whims.

Sorry losers, it doesn't become a hellhole until you thugs are in charge. You'll have to follow the law until then...

[Rurudyne]

Your dead bodies?

So the Left is planning on rioting in Texas?

[LIConFem]

I would take it as a request. Then, of course, I’d be honor-bound to render aid immediately.

[G Larry]

Don’t set objectives you can’t control.

[DoughtyOne]

I’m enjoying seeing the Left go after Ginsberg for not
stepping down under Obama. Hilarious..

[drSteve78]

Yeah, i’m quite sorry to misunderstand the continuous scare/fear inducing events. Are the burning looting murder riots for Blacks Lives Matter, or Antifa, or climate change, or Covid, or now RBG?
Please, help unscramble my brain, making me think like Biden does, and start naming these fires and riots so we can know which group to credit. Unless just being socialists, everyone gets their share of it.

[Secret Agent Man]
