The fucking audacity of the man. He is such a coward.
This seems to happen every few years. I remember even during the Clinton administration, the evidence pointed to right-wing terror being an increasing threat, but instead they prioritized going after “eco-terrorism,” a term made up to justify the extreme response to groups that had never hurt anyone and had only done property damage. (Ironically the actual eco-terrorist groups came later, directly inspired by the tactics of anti-abortion terror groups that had been almost entirely ignored by law enforcement.)
Republicans are so close to right-wing terror groups that they have a fit any time anyone tries to acknowledge what a real threat they are, claiming it’s a partisan attack. But all their angry protests do is prove the Republican party is cozy with violent extremists, and has been for many decades.
