Shortly after Congressman Steve Scales and four others were shot at a baseball practice. Speaker Ryan addressed House members. He said that despite political divisions, Republicans and Democrats are one family. An attack on one is an attack on all. His remarks were widely praised as the right words at the right moment. Speaker Ryan referenced a touching photo of the Democrats softball team practicing in another field that morning in
prayer for their fallen colleagues. These Democrats were left unharmed because the shooter did not see Republicans and Democrats as one family. He saw Republicans as enemies who deserve to die. James Hodgkinson, the shooter was steeped in standard liberal talking points paving Republicans as evil. Over the years, Congressional Democrats, their masters in the drive by media, and their buddies in the entertainment industry have all painted Republicans with that
same brush. They've told Americans that Republicans are coming for our children. They're coming for the poor. They're coming for the sick, the elderly, that disabled. They've said Republicans want to cut health programs. The Republicans want to starve school kids that Republicans are anti woman, anti minority, anti gay, anti immigrant, anti clean air and water, anti planet Earth. Republican policy ideas are always portrayed in the media as
illegitimate and maybe even criminal. This shooting is the direct result of hate, and that hate comes from the left.
