L. Lin Woods, a pro-Trump attorney, tweeted that Mike Pence could be
arrested and executed for treason.
The attorney dismissed claims of "insanity," telling his followers that
he is "fine."
Some Republicans are angry with Pence for asking a court to throw out a
lawsuit against him that sought to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
Wood has previously filed several failed lawsuits attempting to overturn
the election's result in Trump's favor.

L. Lin Wood, a conservative attorney and Trump ally, has rejected questions
about his sanity after he tweeted that Vice President Mike Pence should face
a firing squad.

The lawyer, who has litigated numerous failed attempts to overturn the result
of the 2020 US election, posted a Twitter thread on Friday afternoon.

He wrote about how those who believe the election was stolen have focused on
Democrats, the CIA, and "globalists."

Wood then said that "one of the main participants" had been overlooked � the
Republicans.

He then proceeded to call for senior Republicans and a conservative-leaning
judge to be arrested.

Wood wrote: "When arrests for treason begin, put Chief Justice John Roberts,
VP Mike Pence, and Mitch McConnell at top of the list."

Then, in reply to a tweet, Wood suggested that Pence should be executed by
firing squad.

He wrote: "If Pence is arrested, Pompeo will save the election. Pence will be
in jail awaiting trial for treason. He will face execution by firing squad.
He is a coward and will sing like a bird and confess ALL."
