Metaphor is a thing

A metaphor for what?

Bannon explicitly framed “heads on pikes” as different from and more severe than “firing,” for instance

Steve Bannon calls for beheading Dr. Fauci and FBI Director Wray

This is what Bannon said Second term kicks off with firing Wray, firing Fauci. Now I actually want to go a step farther but I realize the president is a kind-hearted man and a good man. I’d actually like to go back to the old times of Tudor England, I’d put the heads on pikes, right, I’d put them at the two corners of the White House as a warning to federal bureaucrats. You either get with the program or you’re gone — time to stop playing games. snopes.com/fact-check/bannon-fauci-wray-hea…

It’s not at all clear what he meant, if not literal executions
