Michele Fiore, a Nevada Assemblywoman, Finds Unlikely Role at Oregon Standoff’s End

Before long, the occupiers agreed to turn themselves over to agents of theF.B.I. on Thursday — accompanied by Ms. Fiore and the evangelist Franklin Graham.

.. Ms. Fiore is a second-term assemblywoman representing Nevada’s fourth district. But she might be best known nationally for a Christmas card.

.. “I’m about to fly to Paris and shoot them in the head myself,” Ms. Fiore said. “I am not O.K. with Syrian refugees. I am not O.K. with terrorists. I’m O.K. with putting them down, blacking them out.”

.. “I can tell you the great respect I have for my peer Mr. Munford being the first colored man to graduate his college,” she said, referring to Assemblyman Harvey Munford, a Democrat.

She added, “We’re in 2015, and we have a black president, in case anyone didn’t notice, so the color and the race issue — I think it’s time that we put that to rest.”

.. On her weekly radio program, “Walk the Talk,” Ms. Fiore once endorsed a widely discredited theory about cancer — that it’s a fungus, according to The Washington Post.
