This is the best summary I could come up with:
Not long after the attempt to assassinate former president Donald Trump, Republicans began to blame the Democrats; the media; diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts; and critical race theory as responsible for the shooting, even though law enforcement thus far has not shared information about the shooter’s motivations.
Twenty-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks, a registered Republican who once gave $15 to a progressive anti-Trump political action committee, opened fire at a Trump rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday.
“The central premise of the Biden campaign is that President Donald Trump is an authoritarian fascist who must be stopped at all costs,” the Ohio senator wrote on X, formerly Twitter.
Another GOP politician on Trump’s shortlist for VP, Sen. Tim Scott, on Saturday baselessly claimed that the “radical left” and the media “aided and abetted” in the shooting.
“This was an assassination attempt aided and abetted by the radical Left and corporate media incessantly calling Trump a threat to democracy, fascists, or worse,” Scott wrote on X.
Johnson wrote on X that the House will “conduct a full investigation of the tragic events today,” including seeking testimony from Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle “and other appropriate officials from [the Department of Homeland Security] and the FBI.”
The original article contains 844 words, the summary contains 202 words. Saved 76%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Looks like it’s the consequences of their own actions circling around again. Time to blame liberals/trans/minorities/foreigners/anybody else!
Let’s run down the list of the shooter’s known traits and see how this fits the GOP agenda:
- White
- Male
- Suburban
- Privileged upbringing
- Gun enthusiast
- Registered Republican
YUP! Sure sounds like a CRT-lovin’ Democrat operative to me! Can’t wait to hear how these fascist psychos try to spin the web of Deep State bullshit into this one.
NEWSFLASH: There’s only one side of this political climate that has been advocating violence from Day 1, dipshits, and it sure as fuck isn’t coming from the Democrats.
Sounds like a lone wolf, nothing can be done about such a thing
As an aside: how can you be a lone wolf, yet have two wolves inside you? 🤔
brain washing half the country with your sick violent rhetoric.”
Greene in 2021 appeared in a campaign video holding a 50-caliber rifle and promising to “blow away the Democrats’ socialist agenda.” She then fired the rifle at a Toyota Prius with a “socialism” sign on its side. Footage showed the vehicle exploding with the words, “Target destroyed” displayed on screen. The video promoted a giveaway of the rifle “for Americans only.”
When was the last time a Democrat appeared in a political ad with a firearm? More of the right’s projection and gaslighting.
I don’t see political ads - do the ones Biden’s running say things like “Trump must be stopped at all costs?” I just worry that the dems will take the bait and turn down their messaging while the right keep the flames burning.

The party of personal responsibility can never seem to accept responsibility for anything
Well, the god of the Bible is a malevolent narcissist, and they do strive to be godly.
