In spite of the Democrat’s accusations that MAGA supporters and Republicans are domestic terrorists; far-left activists have actually gone as far as to shoot GOP politicians practicing for an upcoming baseball game and try to assassinate a Supreme Court Justice.
On June 14, 2017, a mass shooting occurred during a practice session for the annual Congressional Baseball Game for Charity in Alexandria, Virginia, where six people were shot, including U.S. House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, U.S. Capitol police officer Crystal Griner, congressional aide Zack Barth, and lobbyist Matt Mika, by 66-year-old James Hodgkinson.
A ten-minute shootout took place between Hodgkinson and officers from the Capitol and Alexandria Police before officers shot Hodgkinson, who died from his wounds later that day at the George Washington University Hospital.
Scalise and Mika were taken to nearby hospitals where they underwent surgery.
On June 8, 2022, the AP reported that a man carrying a gun, a knife, and zip ties was arrested near Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s house in Maryland after threatening to kill the justice.
“Nicholas John Roske, 26, of Simi Valley, California, was charged with the attempted murder of a Supreme Court justice. During a court hearing, he consented to remain in federal custody for now.”
“Roske was dressed in black when he arrived by taxi just after 1 a.m. outside Kavanaugh’s home in a Washington suburb. He had a Glock 17 pistol, ammunition, a knife, zip ties, pepper spray, duct tape and other items that he told police he would use to break into Kavanaugh’s house and kill him, according to a criminal complaint and an affidavit filed in federal court in Maryland. Roske said he purchased the gun to kill Kavanaugh and that he also would kill himself, the affidavit said.”

Back in August, the popular conservative Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene was swatted for the first time at her home just after 1 AM in the morning.
Rep. Greene shared the news on Twitter.
Last night, I was swatted just after 1 am.
Last night, I was swatted just after 1 am.
I can’t express enough gratitude to my local law enforcement here in Rome, Floyd County.
More details to come.

“I can’t express enough gratitude to my local law enforcement here in Rome, Floyd County.”
“Swatting is a criminal harassment tactic of deceiving an emergency service (via such means as hoaxing an emergency services dispatcher) into sending a police or emergency service response team to another person’s address.”
“This is triggered by false reporting of a serious law enforcement emergency, such as a bomb threat, murder, or hostage situation, or a false report of a mental health emergency, such as reporting that a person is allegedly suicidal or homicidal and may or may not be armed, among other things.”
Greene has now been swatted 5 more times since, including last night.
I was swatted for the 6th time last night.
Swatting is a very serious crime.
The caller wants to have their victim murdered by police.
But it is also a giant abuse of police resources and time, which is another reason it is a serious crime.
God bless my local police.

The bold and vocal defender of liberty joined Steve Bannon on The War Room talk show and podcast, which included a discussion of the swatting attacks.
Bannon is the former chief strategist in President Donald J. Trump’s administration
Rep. Greene told Bannon that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi did not call for or fund the needed extra security for the congresswoman, even after she was swatted three nights in a row at her home in Georgia.
Greene added, “They won’t give me security with all of the death threats that I have. Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats do not care. I have to pay for it myself.”
