One would never know this from most of the news headlines in this country, but the facts prove otherwise. From the shooting and previous assassination attempt of congressional Republicans on a baseball field practicing for the annual Congressional Baseball Game that left Rep. Steve Scalise (R-LA) badly wounded, to the attack on Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), to the attack on former congressman Lee Zeldin, Saturday’s attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump was just the latest radical act of violence against Republican politicians.

The Left has spent weeks, months, years, heck, even decades, trying to portray the country’s right-wingers as violent people. From the Tea Party of yesteryear to pro-life supporters to the much-maligned MAGA Republicans, people on the Right have been regularly vilified as a domestic existential threat to the United States. Yet, all the while, the country witnesses repeated acts of violence against Republicans that get summarily dismissed by members of the media, left-wingers, and Democratic politicians.
