Globalism, Deep State, Marxism...Leftists spewing hatred encourages violence against the Republic and Liberty.

Red Bernie, raising the rabble to violence.
Hate-filled communists like Bernie Sanders, aided by the complicity of the leftist media, create deranged monsters like James Hodgkinson - and then deny their own personal complicity.
"Extreme right-wing leadership?" Really, Senator? American conservatives will be amused to learn that RINOs like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnel and Speaker of the House Ryan are "extreme right-wing" leaders. That's a real knee-slapper, Bern. as were your crocodile tears about President Trump having scrapped the Paris Accord. If Hodgkinson is any indication, though, your followers are simply too stupid to do anything but swallow your bile.
- Here's Sanders, speaking before the Scalise shooting, exhorting his minions to violence: “You should be angry. Take your anger out on the right people.”
- Here he is again, following the attempted murder of Representative Scalise by one of his own campaign volunteers: “I am sickened by this despicable act.”
Which is it, Senator? Should your followers take their anger out on "the right people", or should they be "sickened" by the violence you encouraged only a week before the shooting?
Much ado about nothing? Perhaps a brief stroll through history will help:
"Who assassinated the last Congressman to die performing the duties of of his office? Jonestown Communists. Who fired a shot at Gerald Ford? A Symbionese Liberation Army sympathizer who, in her own words, tried to start a “revolution.” Who assassinated John F. Kennedy? A Communist who renounced his American citizenship and moved to the Soviet Union. Who assassinated William McKinley? An anarcho-communist compared to Brutus by the assassin’s acquaintance, Emma Goldman. Who assassinated James Garfield? A Bible Communist crazy who lived for five years within the group marriage at the Oneida Community. Notice a pattern?"--Daniel J. Flynn
Bozell & Graham offer more of the same, as do Daniel Flynn & Derek Hunter, who tie the leftist media to the violence. Nick Muscavage exposes the Democratic Party "consultant" who coined the Twitter hashtags #HuntRepublicans and #HuntRepublicanCongressmen.

Snoop Dogg’s is one of the hippest celebrities on the scene today. In a recent music video, he is depicted as shooting a clown-faced President Trump in the head. Do you recall any coverage? Any condemnation?
The very bizarre rock singer Marilyn Manson also has a music video in which a facsimile of Donald Trump is seen decapitated, blood everywhere, soon after Manson tears a Bible apart. Where was the coverage and condemnation?
If we hope to end this habit of violence, we can't interpret it as the fresh product of new political battles. We can't take it as a response to Trump, pro or anti. We have to recognize that it has deep, tenacious roots in a political culture created over time by both the left and the right. Violence is part of our collective political DNA.
This is one of those moments when we can mourn a mythical time of innocence or acknowledge that America's good has always been liberally mixed with bad. This grotesque outbreak of political violence was a tragedy, but it was not an aberration. The first step to overcoming our flaws is to admit how deep they go.
People convinced of their righteousness paradoxically display a capacity for enormous wrongdoing. They dehumanize opponents (fascist, racist, traitor), which ironically coaxes subhuman behavior out of humanitarians. By imagining their cause as a world-saving mission, the do-gooder allows himself to do bad for the imagined greater good without qualm. James Hodgkinson’s ends justified his means — at least to him.
They won’t be shamed into being decent human beings. If the attempted mass murder of Republicans by one of their own didn’t result in 24 hours of honesty and civility, why would anyone think the next 24 days would be any different? Or any day after that?
It won’t be. The only way to really hurt the left is through the voting booth and to put conservative judges on the courts. Remind the American people of who these leftists are, every single time they expose themselves, then relegate them to the cautionary tale section of history books.
But there will be more Hodgkinsons, because the rhetoric and the spirit which produced him is alive and well and celebrated on the Left. Furthermore, even after the attempted mass murder of nearly two dozen members of Congress and the near-assassination of the House Majority Whip, there is no admission that The Resistance, the moniker being bandied about in self-congratulatory fashion to describe those people incapable of accepting the results of the 2016 election, inspired this man.
Sanders, for whom Hodgkinson stumped in Iowa, took to the well of the Senate and declared himself “sickened” by the attack. He then made clear that violence is unacceptable. Which is all very well, but of course this is a man who spent an entire year barnstorming America demanding a “political revolution in this country.” A revolution necessitates assassinations, does it not? Or did Sanders mean something else? Did he want a nonviolent revolution? What history is there of that?

"I think it speaks for itself," Devine said of the tweet on Thursday afternoon. "Yesterday's events are the result of escalating rhetoric and vitriol that has been evident in our political system culminating with the election of our president and the chickens came home to roost, you know?"
Remember what the question was. How to prevent shootings such as we saw in Virginia and elsewhere. And the answer is for Congressman Collins to stop fanning the flames of hate. It doesn’t get much more clear than that. Cuomo is blaming the GOP in general (and obviously Collins in particular) for the shooting. Keep in mind that this was a shooting specifically targeting Republicans, but it’s somehow the GOP’s fault.
