Comments from ‘Left-Wing Politicians’ Led to DC Shooting
On FNC’s “Fox News Live” Thursday, Rep. Buddy Carter (R-GA) said comments from “left-wing politicians” caused the deaths of two National Guard members in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.
Carter said: “First of all, to Andy and Sarah, know that you are in our prayers and to their families, know that a grateful nation comes together in prayer for their recovery. Look, this is something that happens every time left-wing politicians make comments like them. I mean, when you have someone like Elissa Slotkin, who encourages the military to disobey the commander in chief, when you have someone like Jon Ossoff, who says that having troops in Washington, D.C., is a It’s embarrassing, when you have someone like Abigail Spanberger, telling you to let your rage fuel you. These are the kinds of things that lead to this kind of action.
He added: “You know a lot of them are blessed with children and grandchildren and so we teach that words matter and our left-wing politicians need to understand that. This is the result of all of this and the fact that they want to defund the police, they want to attack our law enforcement. All of this has to stop, and it has to stop now.”
