The FBI misled the public on the 2017 baseball practice shooting of Republican members of Congress
I guess this is news, but it seems to me that we (the right, that is) already knew it and so should have any sentient being following the story:
The FBI “misled the public” for years in claiming a sniper’s attempt to kill Republican congressmen at a June 2017 baseball practice was “suicide by cop”, when it was in fact domestic terrorism, according to a new congressional report released Tuesday.
The 27-page House Intelligence Committee report concludes “the FBI’s bottom line – ‘the FBI does not believe there is a nexus to terrorism’ – was based upon falsehoods, half-truths, and manipulations of the known facts.”
So I guess maybe the news is that it was a deliberate coverup rather than stupidity on the part of the FBI? I think we also knew that already. Plus, “suicide by cop” and “domestic terrorism against Republicans” are hardly mutually exclusive.

Well, people on the left pretended not to know that perhaps. Now I guess it’s nice to be able to say conclusively that there was defintely a coverup. To be fair, I wasn’t even aware that the FBI was claiming that this was “suicide by cop” rather than domestic terrorism. Not that it surprises me in the slightest. I just continue to hope that all these Democrat Party opperatives that have been embedded in the FBI for years and years are purged like a high flow toilet being flushed.
It’s been peddled as an article of faith for several years now that fhe primary domestic violence threat comes from conservatives. It was always self evident nonsense, but it was repeated endlessly, like the old canard that the electorate is ‘fiscally conservative but socially liberal’.
It’s ‘kayfabe’. They know it’s a lie. We know it’s a lie. They know we know it’s a lie. But like pro wrestling, they _will not_ admit it.
James Hodgkinson tried to murder the Republicans because he was just acting on the usual anti-Republican propaganda of the democrat party. There is nothing complicated about it.
The FIB just can’t get a break, except when an oath is involved.
Does it make much difference when the feds admit what everybody’s known for years?
About the only thing it’s useful for is telling the lefties that now we know they lied.
