Augustus Sol Invictus, the Florida Libertarian
Party's candidate for U.S. Senate, is attracting national media for
his loopy statements and behavior. Invictus admitted to drinking goat's
blood during a pagan ritual sacrifice, has predicted a coming race war, and
has expressed pride in associating with skinheads. (Invictus is a
criminal defense attorney.)
Invictus's antics have recently caught the attention of KFI's John and Ken Show (starring John Kobylt and Ken Chiampou; see photo), 640 on the AM dial. Broadcast from Los Angeles, John and Ken's show is the most popular
local radio show in the U.S., attracting 1.2 million listeners
during its afternoon drive-time slot.
Last Monday, October 8th, John and
Shannon Farren (who was filling in for the vacationing Ken), discussed Invictus. John said that while the LP largely reflects his political views, he could never support the party because they seem to nominate the craziest of candidates. He and Shannon joked about how the LP must have found Invictus by shaking the Crazy Tree.
