Whenever some left wing extremist commits an act of political violence, the left wing always tries to say that political violence falls equally on both sides of the aisle. I say BS. And so did Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO).
Senator Schmitt delivered one of the most devastating takedowns of the Left’s “both sides” narrative on political violence. Schmitt did this at a hearing that was reviewing Kash Patel’s ability to lead the FBI.
Schmitt turned the spotlight where it belongs: on the hypocrisy of the left’s endless smears against conservatives as “extremists,” “MAGA Republicans,” “fascists,” and “Nazis” while ignoring their own violent foot soldiers.
Schmitt came loaded with receipts and shredded the Democrats’ favorite gaslighting tactic that both sides are equally guilty of political violence.
Sen. Eric Schmitt: We’ve heard years, years of the left, their loudest voice is calling anyone on the right extremist, extremist, mega Republicans, fascists, Nazis, an existential threat to democracy. Check yourself. Don’t give me this both sides bullshit. Mr. Director, I want to ask you, tell me if each one of the following perpetrators or alleged perpetrators were acting from a left-wing or right-wing political [motive]. The man who tried to kill Republican congressmen at the Congressional baseball practice, nearly killing House Majority Leader, Steve Scalise. Left-wing or right-wing violence?
Kash Patel: Sir, I believe it was a left-wing ideology.
Sen. Eric Schmitt: Burned Down Cities During the summer of love in the George Floyd riots. Left-wing violence or right-wing violence?
Kash Patel: Sir, I’ll rely on you on these. I don’t have off the top of my head.
Schmitt went on to list case after case of violence against conservatives, Christians, MAGA people and many others.

The Charlie Kirk assassination is just the latest in a long line of violence from the political left. The Democrats have wound these people and have let them loose on America.
By constantly calling the Republicans Nazis, the Democrats want some weak-minded people to go out and do the deed. This has been done by elite Dems for a very long time. And they want to pretend that the Republicans do the same thing.
An egregious example of this may be Governor JB Pritzker of Illinois. Pritzker, who fancies himself a candidate for President, came out recently to claim that he has never done that. Governor Flintstone forgot about the internet. He thinks everyone is as developmentally stunted, gullible and uninformed as the brainwashed Democrats who voted for him.
From his official State of the State address in February:
The authoritarian playbook is laid bare here: They point to a group of people who don’t look like you and tell you to blame them for your problems. If you think I’m overreacting and sounding the alarm too soon, consider this: It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.
JB Pritzker: I never called them Nazis
Also JB Pritzker: OK, so maybe I called Trump Hitler and Republicans nazis on a dozen occasions…pic.twitter.com/28MLpXvaec

Communists Democrats lie, cheat, steal, extort, slander, project, intimidate, bully, and murder… It’s what they do.
All the politicians who called Charlie Kirk a racist and a fascist have blood on their hands.

It is time to hold the Democrats and their media partners responsible.
